Same thing, they are one. So when Jesus returns all kingdoms become His, and of course the Father's also. There is no separate time for the rule to start!
What is your understanding of these passages:
1 Corinthians 15:22 For as in Adam all die, so
in Christ all will be made alive. 23 But each in turn: Christ, the firstfruits; then,
when he comes, those who belong to him. 24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.
Matthew 13:40 As the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire,
so it will be at the end of the age. 41 The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil. 42 They will throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43
Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Whoever has ears, let them hear.
Do you believe that Jesus will return at the end of the age (Matt 24:3)? If so, what do the passages above indicate will happen at that point?
No He won't. There will still be rebels 1000 years later. Once all is finished, after the millennium then we have the new heavens and
earth.
Can you tell me how you interpret this passage:
2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare. 11 Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives 12 as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming. That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat. 13 But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells.
That is not when His feet stand on the mount of Olives. Not at all.
False. No He does not rule the kingdoms of the world now. Nor do we yet reign with Him.
I'd like to see you try to tell Him that.
Matthew 28:6 Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18 Then
Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
Revelation 1:5 and from
Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and
the ruler of the kings of the earth.To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood, 6 and
has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father—
to him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen.
Do you see how I'm backing up my view with scripture? You should try it sometime. If you want to be taken seriously, that is.
Right, that comes in stages. Some By Jesus when He returns and of course the final great white throne judgment at the end of the 1000 years. You conflate it all together.
Scripture does not teach that people are judged in stages, it teaches that all people will be judged at the same time. Here are examples of that:
Acts 17:31 For
he has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the man he has appointed. He has given proof of this to everyone by raising him from the dead.”
Matthew 13:47 “Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was let down into the lake and
caught all kinds of fish. 48 When it was full, the fishermen pulled it up on the shore. Then they sat down and collected the good fish in baskets, but threw the bad away. 49
This is how it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous 50 and throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Matthew 25:31 “
When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and
he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left. 34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘
Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world......41 “
Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels.....46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”
Right that is when He returns, some of the dead.
Where are you seeing that just some of the dead are judged when Jesus returns? Do you see that in any of the passage I quoted above?
The rest of the dead, not until the 1000 years are done.
I'm sorry, where does Revelation 11:18 indicate that the seventh trumpet will signal the time for just some of the dead to be judged?
