I agree. We are in a Revelation 20 now. When Jesus comes He will introduce the new having a new earth. Let Scripture interpret Scripture. It shows us that there are only two ages: this age and the age to come, time and eternity.
Christ shows us that satan must first be locked up BEFORE the Age to Come is established thru Christ = at the 7th Trump

Ask yourself = Are the kingdoms of this world under the Rule of Christ or satan?

Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.
And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.”

Then Jesus said to him, “Away with you, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve.’ ”

Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.

Do not fear what you are about to suffer.
Behold, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison to test you, and you will suffer tribulation for ten days.
Be faithful even unto death, and I will give you the crown of life.

All Good Brother = AMEN on the Scriptures you posted
Jesus said complete restoration and final judgment will occur at his coming. See my previous post. You seem to believe that it won't. Why would you want to believe something that contradicts what he said?
Never forget that Revelation chapter 20 must be fulfilled BEFORE Revelation chapter 21
Absolutely agree.
New Heaven and the New Earth is created AFTER the literal 1,000 Year Reign of Christ
Not what Jesus said. He said at his future coming.

Paul, Peter etc understand Jesus to be saying that,

Paul-2thess 1

5 This is a positive proof of the righteous judgment of God [a sign of His fair verdict], so that you will be considered worthy of His kingdom, for which indeed you are suffering. 6 For after all it is only just for God to repay with distress those who distress you, 7 and to give relief to you who are so distressed and to us as well when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels in a flame of fire, 8 dealing out [full and complete] vengeance to those who do not [seek to] know God and to those who ignore and refuse to obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus [by choosing not to respond to Him]. 9 These people will pay the penalty and endure the punishment of everlasting destruction, banished from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power, 10 when He comes to be glorified in His saints on that day

see 2Peter 3.

His future Coming begins at His Return and Continues for a 1,000 Years as He Reigns on Earth

And to the one who overcomes and continues in My work until the end, I will give authority over the nations.
He will rule them with an iron scepter and shatter them like pottery —just as I have received authority from My Father.
And I will give him the morning star.

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

Peter and Paul we can discuss as well = Good Night for now Brother

Neither Jesus , Paul , Peter mention such a thing in those scriptures.
The door to salvation is shut at his second coming.

Matt 25
10 But while they were going away to buy oil, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding feast; and the door was shut and locked. 11 Later the others also came, and said, ‘Lord, Lord, open [the door] for us.’ 12 But He replied, ‘I assure you and most solemnly say to you, I do not know you [we have no relationship].’ 13 Therefore, be on the alert [be prepared and ready], for you do not know the day nor the hour [when the Son of Man will come].


Jesus informs us that they are thrown into the fire when he comes, as the door is shut and locked. No wonder he stressed to us that we must be ready.


Matt 24
48 But if that servant is evil and says in his heart, ‘My master is taking his time [he will not return for a long while],’ 49 and begins to beat his fellow servants and to eat and drink with drunkards; 50 the master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour of which he is not aware, 51 and will cut him in two and put him with the hypocrites; in that place there will be weeping [over sorrow and pain] and grinding of teeth [over distress and anger].


With this truth in mind, should we teach that his coming is not the end ?? and another thousand years of opportunity will be the reward of those not ready.

Heaven and earth will pass away but never the words he has spoken.

Jn 12
47 If anyone hears My words and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge and condemn the world [that is, to initiate the final judgment of the world], but to save the world. 48 Whoever rejects Me and refuses to accept My teachings, has one who judges him; the very word that I spoke will judge and condemn him on the last day.

Ever hear of the "New World Order" folks? Or "one world government"?

What about the Revelation 13:1 beast kingdom that comes up out of the "sea", that is to have ten horns, seven heads, and ten crowns? You've heard of that for the end of this world, right?

Even though the false doctrine of Amillennialism began in the 2nd century A.D. when pagan Gnosticism began creeping into the Christian Church, that doesn't mean it is a Biblical doctrine just because of being that old. The pagan Gnostics still exist to this day, and they have not changed their plan for world takeover in prep for the one they... worship, Lucifer.

These people who follow today's Gnosticism are associated with the Occult secret societies. One can basically put all the pagan secret societies into one boat; they all worship Lucifer, even secret fraternities that have strong Christian memberships at their lower levels of what they call the Lesser Mysteries. The high level members know who they worship, the devil, and they are preparing the whole world for his coming to take reign over all this earth at the end.

That is why even the deceived on their doctrines of Amillennialism are so fervent in supporting it even when it goes directly against the written Bible Scriptures. It has been around so long that the deceived have gotten attached to it like a thick vine grown from a Jack and the Beanstalk type bean.

This is why Amillennialism tries to convince the gullible that the Revelation 20 "thousand years" about Christ's future reign isn't literal, but symbolic only; even though that "thousand years" reign by Christ and His elect for the future AFTER His return is well defined in plenty of Bible Scriptures, including in the Old Testament prophets.

Those Gnostics behind the theory of Amillennialism want to destroy that "thousand years" reign by Christ Jesus. And don't be fooled brethren in Christ by those deceived brethren on that Amill doctrine that claim it is Biblical just because it goes back to the 2nd century A.D. That 'something is true because it is the oldest' ploy has been attempted with pushing newer Bible translations from older claimed Bible manuscripts too, when there is little actual proof. New and Improved doesn't work with God's Truth in His Word.

Think about the building of the first city by Cain in the "land of Nod" where Cain took his wife. The only most ancient creation account other than given Moses in the Book of Genesis is found in the Babylonian cuneiform clay tablets. And those tablets report of a history going back further with the ancient Sumerians in that area before it became known as Babylon.

I believe that is where Cain went to, and was the actual "land of Nod" mentioned in Genesis 4 where Cain built the very first city. Per the ancient Sumer history written in the tablets, that would fit the one they called Sargon I. Sargon was of Semitic origin per their history, and he began the very first IDOL worship of earth history. That is where ancient Baal worship began, in ancient Sumer. Why do I mention this?

It is because during the time of king David and his Solomon, with the building of the city of David, and Solomon's temple, pagan workers in stone and metals were gotten from king Hiram of Tyre, a pagan Phoenician that was friends with king David. The children of Israel did not have the expertise in stone and metal working, so David and Hiram traded workers. Other than the pagan Canaanites which Israel was not able to destroy per God's command, these workers from Tyre were pagans that also crept in among the children of Israel. And many of them became religious Jews that have been planted among the Jews for so long, that it is impossible to distinguish who they are today, and thus Christ's parable to the tares in Matthew 13.

One of the ideas that came out of ancient pagan Babylon was the so-called 'Mysteries', also known as 'mystery schools'. In ancient Babylon the priesthood there controlled entry in among them through initiation by certain rituals, and then a probationary period. Then the Mysteries would be revealed to them. What those Mysteries were and are about involve the Occult, things God told us to not mess with per His laws. Yet today's secret societies are still practicing all those ancient Mysteries from the devil.

Because the theory of Amillennialism converts certain Biblical texts meant literally instead as being symbolic, that is a concerted and vain attempt to change what God's Word actually teaches. That kind of movement of interpreting The Bible mostly as allegory was one of the problems the Christian school at Alexandria, Egypt had. Origen and Clement both got in trouble for it.

Amill says Christ's "thousand years" reign of Revelation 20 is only SYMBOLIC, and not LITERAL. Thus they also deny Old Testament Scripture like Zechariah 14 which is about Christ's future 2nd coming back to Jerusalem and His future reign with His elect over all nations, including the unsaved nations. They also deny references to Christ's future reign over the wicked as described by Apostle Paul. Amill instead wrongly believes that at Christ's future return, all the wicked are then immediately destroyed, and right then we go into God's new heavens and a new earth time. They simply skip any Bible reference of the wicked still existing after Christ's future return.

And then, Amill makes TODAY, our PRESENT DAY, special, in the sense that Lord Jesus is REIGNING NOW! and that His Kingdom has come today! And that even though all the wickedness is still going on in this world. It's a theory of a madman! But hey, it serves the Occultists well, because Lucifer has always wanted to be God, and worshiped in place of God. That was his original sin by the way, coveting God's Throne for himself, wanting to be God. No matter that Lucifer and his followers can setup a fake world kingdom with wickedness still going on in it.
Amill was designed (by the Lords own words) to reinforce and take seriously his command to be ready for his coming.

We must be ready when he comes because he is coming in full vengeance to eternally judge and separate the ungodly from those who are glorified ON THAT DAY. = God's righteous judgment.


5 This is a positive proof of the righteous judgment of God [a sign of His fair verdict], so that you will be considered worthy of His kingdom, for which indeed you are suffering. 6 For after all it is only just for God to repay with distress those who distress you, 7 and to give relief to you who are so distressed and to us as well when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels in a flame of fire, 8 dealing out [full and complete] vengeance to those who do not [seek to] know God and to those who ignore and refuse to obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus [by choosing not to respond to Him].


The End

Premill is designed not to reinforce the plea to be ready, by suggesting a thousand years of opportunity exist after his coming. The whole thing is absurd and ridiculous to me. You are guilty of what you accuse us of in that OP.
Fix your eyes on how Jesus explained these things to us, no need to add to it as he gave us the big picture.

Mk 13
21 Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed)!’ or, ‘Look, He is there!’ do not believe it; 22 for false Christs and false prophets will arise, and they will provide signs and wonders in order to deceive, if [such a thing were] possible, even the elect [those God has chosen for Himself]. 23 But be on your guard; I have told you everything in advance.
