Daniel 9
24Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy. 25Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times. 26And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined. 27And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

is this fulfilled? or future?

the future 1,000 year Kingdom.

i guess all of those are included in your scenario.
1000 years of peace with no war; Christ and his holy ones ruling the earth from the destroyed city of Jerusalem; the knowledge of GOD increases exponentially resulting in increased life spans (the inverse of decreasing life spans from Adam to Noah due to the fading revelation of GOD); technology like we've never seen it before.

Speculation, of course, but not necessarily unscriptural.

What else would you like to know?

It's unscriptural that men's life spans decreased dramatically as they moved farther away from the revelation of GOD in the garden? And it's total speculation that life spans will increase dramatically as the knowledge of GOD increases dramatically?

Neither shall there be there any more a child that dies untimely, or an old man who shall not complete his time: for the youth shall be a hundred years old, and the sinner who dies at a hundred years shall also be accursed: Isaiah 65:20

Simple Zone.
Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, holding in his hand the key to the bottomless pit[SUP][a][/SUP] and a great chain. [SUP]2 [/SUP]And he seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years, [SUP]3 [/SUP]and threw him into the pit, and shut it and sealed it over him, so that he might not deceive the nations any longer, until the thousand years were ended. After that he must be released for a little while.
[SUP]4 [/SUP]Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom the authority to judge was committed. Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and thosewho had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. [SUP]5 [/SUP]The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended. This is the first resurrection. [SUP]6 [/SUP]Blessed and holy is the one who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and they will reign with him for a thousand years.

It says a thousand years over and over.
How hard can it be?
So is the book of Revelation all symbolic? There is one chapter in the WHOLE Bible that even brings up this 1000 year nonsense. This is an eschatology propagated by Scofield, with his Bible "interpreting" all the "signs" and Hal Lindsay in his books and the FICTION books of Tim LaHaye and the Left Behind Series.

A while back a man named David Glenn Harvey came on here and made one post about his thesis and/or book "Revelation Left Behind". I bought the book on Kindle for $2.99 and read it. He rips apart all the assumptions of pre-millennials and everyone else using the Bible and good hermeneutics. It is well written with about 200 references in the Bibliography.

Kim Riddlebarger also wrote "Case for Amillennialism" another excellent book of Biblical scholarship.

If you don't believe Zone or me, try reading outside your boundaries.

And just for those of you who might think I am communicating with Zone about this thread, I have never once talked with her about this issue. I came to the conclusion that amillennialism was the correct Biblical answer before I knew what it was called. It is one of the reasons I left the Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada (besides quite a few other issues!!) before I found out the doctrinal (or dogma??) statement of PAOC says that anyone who does not believe in pre-trib pre-millennialsim is a heretic.

Pretty strong words for a bad guess, don't you think?

  1. yes
  2. yes
  3. Christ is not under the Mosaic law
  4. ruling the earth

  6. Mosaic law is history
  7. by faith
so he is King now.
is He not ruling the earth now?


Psalm 110
A Psalm of David.

1 The LORD says to my Lord:
“Sit at my right hand,
until I make your enemies your footstool.”

2 The LORD sends forth from Zion
your mighty scepter.
Rule in the midst of your enemies!


Matthew 22
Whose Son Is the Christ?

41Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them a question, 42saying, “What do you think about the Christ? Whose son is he?” They said to him, “The son of David.” 43He said to them, “How is it then that David, in the Spirit, calls him Lord, saying,

44 “‘The Lord said to my Lord,
Sit at my right hand,
until I put your enemies under your feet’?

45If then David calls him Lord, how is he his son?” 46And no one was able to answer him a word, nor from that day did anyone dare to ask him any more questions.


Acts 2
29“Brothers, I may say to you with confidence about the patriarch David that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day. 30Being therefore a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him that he would set one of his descendants on his throne, 31he foresaw and spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that he was not abandoned to Hades, nor did his flesh see corruption. 32This Jesus God raised up, and of that we all are witnesses. 33Being therefore exalted at the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he has poured out this that you yourselves are seeing and hearing. 34For David did not ascend into the heavens, but he himself says,

“‘The Lord said to my Lord,
Sit at my right hand,
35 until I make your enemies your footstool.’


Jesus is King now - is Jesus ruling now - both over his Church, and in the midst of His enemies?

.....

"I don't think so. Why would there need to be one? King's rule from thrones in palaces"

so people rebuild Jerusalem (?) and Jesus rules from a Palace?

but the Bible says he is already on "David's Throne", which is His Throne - in Heaven.
doesn't it?



what is the 1,000 years FOR?

seriously....what didn't happen between the first and Second Advent that needs to happen during exactly 1,000 years after that?

where is the church at that time?

what kind of bodies do people have?

are the saints glorified (the first resurrection) while others are still in flesh?

Amillennialism is bankrupt IMO because it removes man from the very creation he was designed to rule: earth.

okay....so, you don't see that passage as OT for the New Heavens and New Earth.

even though a few verses before that God said it was the New Heavens and New Earth (and New Jerusalem):

Isaiah 65:17
17"For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; And the former things will not be remembered or come to mind. 18"But be glad and rejoice forever in what I create; For behold, I create Jerusalem for rejoicing And her people for gladness

2 Peter 3:13
But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells.

Revelation 21:1
Then I saw "a new heaven and a new earth," for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea.

~

you have flesh sinners living and dying after the Second Advent - during the Millennium...right?

what kind of bodies do the saints have?

then after the 1,000 years comes the New Heavens and the New Earth?

  4. ditto
  5. rebuilding the earth
  6. as he is so will we be
  7. the saints will have immortal bodies, but those who survive the holocaust will not.

are were here now, then?

Isaiah 65:17
17"For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; And the former things will not be remembered or come to mind. 18"But be glad and rejoice forever in what I create; For behold, I create Jerusalem for rejoicing And her people for gladness

Revelation 21:1

??

how can there be no more crying, sorrow or DEATH for 1,000 years, then the great battle and death and hell and stuff?

when you just posted Hebrew pictures talking about death and dying?

WHEN does this happen?

Revelation 21
A New Heaven and a New Earth

1Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. 2And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling placea of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people,b and God himself will be with them as their God.c 4He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.”

22And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb. 23And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb. 24By its light will the nations walk, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it, 25and its gates will never be shut by day—and there will be no night there. 26They will bring into it the glory and the honor of the nations. 27But nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who does what is detestable or false, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s book of life.

where's this?
who survives what holocaust?

Matthew 13
The Parable of the Weeds Explained

36Then he left the crowds and went into the house. And his disciples came to him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field.” 37He answered, “The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. 38The field is the world, and the good seed is the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one, 39and the enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the close of the age, and the reapers are angels. 40Just as the weeds are gathered and burned with fire, so will it be at the close of the age. 41The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all law-breakers, 42and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.
