    Scripture is your own personal Roarasach test unless you agree with Jesus on the spiritual nature of the Kingdom.

    How do you know it is the right Jesus if you reject his Kingdom over the Pharisees?

    Jesus says his Kingdom is not of this world = both are heresy.

    There is no millennium. Jesus said the kingdom arrived with him and it's eternal.

    His kingdom is not of this world (age). There are 2 ages. This evil age and the new heavens and earth.

    And it is eternal and spiritual, already begun at the first advent. And follows the resurrection and rapture into the new heavens and earth.

    Paul says the letter kills but the Spirit gives life. God blinded the Pharisees. How different are you from they?
