Matthew 19:16 says, "And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?"
Stop and think. During Jesus' time on earth, was premillennialism doctrine existed in that time? Did ever a rich man hear premillennialism doctrine before he asked Christ?
No question, The rich man understoods 'eternal' means forever without end, even, he believed there is life beyond death.
He was not think of 1000 years, because premillennialism was not yet existed in his time. He only asked Christ what shall he do to have eternal life, which speak of salvation. Christ told him, if he wants to follow him, then he would have to giving up everything what he possessed them, give all them to the poor, then come and to follow Christ. Christ tested on him, because he knew man is rich, and not willing to give up everything, so, therefore hard for him to enter eternal life just like as entering into the narrow road of Matt. 7:13-14.
Premillennialism doctrine, itself was not introduction to religions of the world till late 19th century, that is about almost 1900 years later after the rich man asked Christ.
Premillennialism was introduction while dispensationalism and pretribulationism both were born same time.
That why there are so many divisions among Churches on these.
I rather listening what the early Church fathers believed, and follow what the Bible actual saying than what men saying according Colossians 2:8.
I cannot understand why some of you cannot understand the simple verse of John 3:16 says, 'eternal or everlasting life'? Are you spiritual blind? Huh?
Also, in 1 John 2:25 say: "And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life."
It doesn't say, "And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even 1000 years life."
You cannot twist, or removed, or added God's Word, what it actual saying. Accept what it saying. Believe it.
And in 1 John 5:11-13 say: "And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in Son. He that hath the Son hath life, and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God, that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God."
This passage doesn't saying about millennial. This is talking about salvation.
This passage doesn't saying, "And this is the record, that God hath given to us a thousand years life, and this temporarily is in Son. He that hath the Son hath temporarily, and he that not the Son of God hath not millennial life. These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God, that ye may know that you have temporarily life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God."
You cannot twist, or added, or removed words from God's Word. You have to accept it, and believe it.
Read this passage is not hard for you. Why cannot you understand this passage? Are you spiritual blind? Huh?
Throughout the four gospels, Jesus Christ never teaching to his disciples on millennial kingdom, because he never use term, 'a thousand years'. Not even, Christ used 'kingdom' means 1000 years either.
Christ simple telling us, anyone who believe in Christ, will never go to hell, but have eternal life. It is so very simple, you have to accept and believe what He actual saying. Why don't you listen to Christ's saying? Are you spiritual blind?
Have a nice day! God bless you.
In Christ
Rev. 22:20 -Amen!
