    To say that the redemption of individuals is the spoiling of Satan in that individual is not to say the same thing as Revelation 20:1-3 has been fulfilled such that the devil is bound so as not to deceive the nations for 1000 years. The two are not even remotely the same thing.

    The devil's are subject only individuals? Sez who?

    But Christ said if He casts out Satan by the Spirit, then the Kingdom is come.

    I have not made any claims one way or the other about election. Nor have I made any statements about various numbers not being important in Scripture, including the number 12.

    Election is not relevant to discuss in this thread concerning whether or not there will be a future literal 1000-year reign of Christ on the earth.

    You claim that "1000 is the number of completion." Where and how does the Bible teach that?

    Says the Bible. Acts 26:18 and many other passages refute the notion that in the time of the early church Satan was bound such that he was sealed in the bottomless pit and not deceiving the nations on the earth.

    Past the midpoint of the first century AD, under inspiration, Peter said that the devil as a roaring lion, was freely walking about on the earth seeking people to devour (1 Pet. 5:8). That statement refutes any notion that Satan was already bound in the bottomless pit.

    If he was not even bound in that specific manner for the 60 or so years during the times that the Apostles were alive on the earth, your claim that he has already been bound for 1000 years has no biblical basis.

    You claim it too. How long to fulfill the promises to Abraham and to his seed?

    I never said, "The devil's are subject only individuals."

    To say that Christ's casting out Satan in individuals by the Spirit shows that the kingdom has come does not prove that the 1000-year Millennial kingdom has come.

    Revelation 20 says six times that it lasts for a 1000 years. I did not say that; the Spirit says that. To make that symbolic of "completion" in the same sense that you spoke about the number 12 from all those other texts is faulty.

    But that's how long the Son of David has to reign to fulfill the promises. Correct? Why not 500 years. 1500?

    Psa 110:1

    ΒΆ
    [[A Psalm of David.]] The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.

    Acts 3:219-21 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you: Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.

    Psalms 110:2 The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.- to the end of the chapter.


    Matt 19:28

    The Gospel is for the entire human race, only those who actually repent and believe are the ones who will be saved. "Whosoever", is from those of the whole world that believes, as in those in Revelation 22:17, "And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely"

    Yes, and I know this is off topic, my point is it is not whosever, it is whosoever with a qualifier, believes, and not everyone can/will believe unless they are drawn by the Father. That's what Jesus said.

    your theology renders the preaching of the Gospel, which is for the salvation of all sinners, a complete SHAM!

    To my knowledge, the Bible does not provide any reasons for the length of the period.

    That is the Gospel of the Bible. Not theology
