The point that you dodged was the term AGE.
Paul is clearly indicating that this PRESENT AGE is the CHRUCH AGE.
And it is indeed EVIL, and Satan is NOT completely bound by any stretch of the imagination.

1Th 2:18
Wherefore we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan hindered us.
1Ti 1:20
Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.
1Ti 5:15
For some are already turned aside after Satan.
Rev 2:9
I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
Rev 2:13
I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.

******************************************************************

In fact, the Satan-man is prophesied to make his appearance, and soon. Did you forget about this as well? Shameful!

2Th 2:9
Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

******************************************************************

You do realize that there was also an earlier AGE ended at the flood. Right?

2Pe 2:5
And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;

*****************************************************************

The amils, CT's, RT's and historicists continue to make themselves out to be woefully biblically illiterate.
They have been discredited at every point.
And yet, not the slightest glimmer of repentance or effort to learn or sincere correction is evident.
So...what is Satan doing that hinders Jesus from building His church? Is Satan not a tool in God's hand accomplishing, and not hindering, God's purposes? Who shows up in Revelation with the keys to death and hell? That's Who is large and in charge. Who previously had those keys?
 
You see incomplete or complete. Everything changed at the cross. The kingdom of God came definitively at that point. It has been coming progressively since. And when Jesus returns it will come consumatively. Like the mustard seed, it starts small and grows to be the largest. The kingdom of God eventually swallows up all the other kingdoms. This is what scripture teaches. The kingdoms of this world become the kingdoms of our God and of His Christ. Hence, a done or undone perspective is inaccurate to explain the progression of history. Rather, a more and greater evidence of the kingdom over time is the accurate model.

I can see that model unfolding, but I don't think you understand how "the kingdoms of this world become the kingdoms of God and our Christ". There is a completed model by the time the New Jerusalem descends from Heaven as described in Revelation 21 & 22.

You should read Revelation 21 afresh. The new Jerusalem is the bride...v. 2. John saw it coming down from heaven...v. 2 and v. 10. The new Jerusalem is the church. The church is the dwelling place of God.

That's funny, last I checked, Israel/Jerusalem is no longer desolate and neither are it's current people.

The confirmation of the covenant is with people, who survived, even while the ABOMINATIONS were being made desolate for that time.
Which one? The one in the prophecy, or the one established by the machinations of the Rothschilds in 1948? The prophecy was about the real Israel in the bible, not some other state 2000 years in the future named the same. And the confirmation of the covenant was via the Holy Spirit, to all who believed on Christ Jesus.

Ephesians 1:13 - 14 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

2 Corinthians 1:21 - 22 Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God; Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.

There are lots of people named David today, but none of them are the famous king from whose line the Messiah came. The Rothschilds can create another 1000 states and name all of them Israel, but none of them will be the people of God referred to in the bible.

The New Jerusalem doesn't come into play until after the final Great White Throne judgement after the 1,000 years are over on the earth. Maybe you should read Revelation 20 afresh.
 
Neither sperm nor fetus -Why would the One who spoke a body out of dust of the earth (Genesis) need sperm to fertilize Mary's egg?

Can these bones live?

Only sinless blood traveled thru Jesus' veins, and is the payment for sin.
Exactly.
But this can be another discussion.

Don't understand why the other side so big on ethnicity. Abraham is not Jewish. Abraham is Iran ish. Oops 😬

Also Rothschild might not even be ethnic jew. It is an ethnic mess. Why they keep on insist this ethnic golden calf?

I think you need to read Ephesians 1:13-14 AGAIN:

Ephesians 1:13 - 14 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

Are you trying to say the Holy Spirit is not confirmation of the new covenant in Jesus' blood? You might need to be more explicit, if you want people to understand your point.

Here is what I am trying to say:

Sin and death still exist during the millennium. The fact that Satan is released and Gog and Magog rebel (Rev 20:7–10) demonstrates that corruption has not been fully eradicated. As Justin Taylor puts it: "the redemption of the natural creation and its being set free from bondage to corruption does not occur, at least in its consummate expression, until 1,000 years subsequent to Christ's return."

The "possession" is still on the old earth. During the millennium, believers reign with Christ (Rev 20:4–6), but they inhabit the old creation. The "purchased possession" is not yet fully delivered into its eternal state. The new heavens and new earth of Revelation 21 come only after the millennium concludes.

Christ's handover of the kingdom is still future. 1 Corinthians 15:24–26 says Christ will deliver the kingdom to the Father after destroying "every rule and every authority and every power," with the last enemy destroyed being death. In the premillennial timeline, death is not finally destroyed until the transition into the new creation.

The "day of redemption" (Eph 4:30) connects to 1:14. Paul's reference to a future "day of redemption" in Ephesians 4:30 is widely understood as pointing back to the same eschatological event in 1:14 — the final, bodily glorification. That day arrives only at the consummation, which in premillennialism follows the millennium.

That's what the AI says, what do you say?
 
Just to throw this out there. This is to all.

Scripture tells us
Mat 5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

Mat 5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

So how do you understand this?

Fairly sure the millennium is a different topic. This doesn't relate to the confirmation of the covenant or the Holy Spirit. It comes afterward.

Revelation 20:8 does not place the 1,000 years on earth; it only shows that when the 1,000 years are finished, Satan goes out to deceive “the nations in the four corners of the earth,” which proves nations still exist on earth at the time of his release, not that the millennium itself occurred on earth.
Nope.
Just the opposite.
...and where pray tell is he chained for 1000 years?

Hint....where is his mischief?
