Strange, the prophets all foresaw an earthly Kingdom of Messiah reigning, bring peace upon this earth, why don't you?
The only thing that is strange is you have not answered anything you were asked to respond to,and yet you ask another question as if It is okay for you not to answer, not offer any scriptural support, and yet expect a response...
that is strange. here ...just to remind you-
Y1
There is NO biblcal support taht the Church, by preaching the Gospel, will take over the earth for Jesus though
,
You are asking for biblical support? Sure.....as soon as you respond biblically to the last two posts in which you offer nothing on the verses....respond to these first;1]

15 Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt.16 These things understood not his disciples at the first:
they did not understand...at first, like you and other dispensationalists now-
now look what it says;
but when Jesus was glorified,
then remembered they that these things were written of him,
and that they had done these things unto him.
Zion's King...did come, they worshipped Him...
2] In your last response.....you ignored the verses from psalm 72.....you did not respond at all, except to offer a vague denial.
Here is Ken Gentry;
In Solomon's glorious Psalm we find a prophetic pledge that Christ "shall have dominion from sea to sea." And he promises this gracious worldwide victory of the Christian faith in time and on earth "while the sun and moon endure" (72:5) and despite the existence of those "enemies" (72:9) who would "afflict" and "oppress" (72:2, 4).
Under the gracious sway of his gospel, Christ will cause "the righteous to flourish" (72:7) and bring "peace to the people" (Psa. 72:5). Resulting from this righteousness and peace will come "abundance" and "flourishing" prosperity in all the earth (72:16). Ultimately, "all nations [will] call him blessed" (72:17) so that "the whole earth [will] be filled with his glory" (72:19).
Such is the postmillennial hope. Christ will return after millennial conditions prevail upon the earth (hence, post-millennialism), not before them (as in the popular pre-millennial system). The millennial blessings arise under the influence of the gospel, not because of Armageddon.
Though many evangelicals today are concerned about being Left Behind before the future collapses into absolute chaos, the postmillennialist is optimistic that He Shall Have Dominion throughout the earth. Rather than adopting "I'll Fly Away" as their anthem, postmillennialists prefer "Onward Christian Soldiers."
respond to the verses that say dominion is from sea to sea in the midst of His enemies

as the Bible expressly states to us that in the end, times will be tough and hard, so much in fact, that if jesus did not come back for his elect, even they would perish!
This was spoken about the "end" of the jewish theocracy". Those who lived before the destruction of the temple were warned....
Isis has not yet gotten the memo either that Jeus reigns over them yet...
Isis, cults, non Christian heathen exist.....as the gospel spreads...they say- we will not have this man to reign over us. However he is reigning with a rod of iron rule, no idle word will go unpunished.
nevertheless on the last day, every knee will bow,and every tongue will confess.....They will get the memo at that time ,and remember it for all eternity in hell.
