    I can prove it and have many times over. But if it will create a debate, why exploit it?

    Your physical kingdom ENDs in flames. The Kingdom Jesus preached is forever.

    Literal destroys meaning. Of course, he would falter. Jesus said the kingdom is Spiritual. Therefore all kingdom prophecies in the OT and Revelation are Symbolic. Only the Pharisees disagreed with him.

    No, it survives the flames and goes out into eternity:
    Isa 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Isa 9:7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.

    Thanks! I got a good laugh out of that. :p Seems like right now we are on a "debate thread," so the debate has already been created. Just admit it. You can't prove it.

    Yeah, right, "literal destroy's meaning." So go down to the grocery store and tell them, "I wish for bread." Then when you get bread, tell them, "No, no, I wanted potatoes. Don't you understand spiritual interpretation?"

    So first thing in the morning you read your Bible and are so blessed by your "spiritual" interpretation. Then all day long you do literal interpretation with everyone you talk to. Got it. ;)

    Got to go. Have a great weekend.

    Your Catholic Creed was quite vague and incorporates self-servicing false doctrines. The Holy Spirit would not guide such vague manipulable guidance. Which is why I stick with the scriptures. I base nothing on Catholicism.

    That Kingdom turned over to the Father in the end, how is that being destroyed?

    The earth and heavens pass away in intense heat. Why say the kingdom is for the 1000 years and then deny it?

    And that was the bedrock of the gospel.
