Remember, Jesus & the saints reign for 1K years AFTER JESUS RETURNS TO EARTH. And when Satan is freed after the millenium, he brings up an army ON EARTH that surrounds the camp of the saints, which will evidently be at Jerusalem.TurnTheTide1611,
Explain to me your idea of ruling with a rod of Iron???
Is there no sin in your idea of the kingdom? If a person sins, do angels appear and smite them?
The "kingdom would not last for more than a few hours.
What do you mean, in seed form?
What does this passage mean?
25 See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven:
26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.
27 And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
29 For our God is a consuming fire.
What Kingdom is this that we received in verse28?
Where does it say in Rev. 20 that the kingdom reign is with Jesus on earth?
Jesus said the Kingdom had come upon THEM..He did not say these were signs of what will happen in a future kingdom, He said the Kingdom had come upon them.
You have devils in your future Kingdom??? What verse says there will be devils in a future millenium?
His Kingdom Authority was from heaven, not an earthly physical political Kingdom
I was originally taught these things, where does rev 20 say Jesus rules and reigns ON EARTH?
Yes, it is on earth now, physically. Jesus is on the throne in the heavenly Zion and Jerusalem
Isaiah 2 King James Version (KJV)
2 The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
2 And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it.
3 And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
4 And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
Notice this passage says this will happen in the last days, we are in the last days since the cross. Hebrews 12 says the Lord speaks from heaven.now, we receiving a Kingdom now...
Mine do.
And remember, Jesus is to rule THE NATIONS with a rod of iron.
