if you read the chronology of Zech 14 his reign on earth is for 1000 years and then his reign will be in the new heaven and earth and new Jerusalem. If you believe the law of the prophets which is how I form my opinions all scripture will work out and not contradict itself. The prophet of God must be 100% accurate. The prophecy in Zech 14 I can point to many other prophecies that would link to it and work in harmony taken literally. Zech 14 starts with Jerusalem being over run on what is said to be the day of the LORD later it says on this day it will be light at night and that the enemies of God will be melted Indiana Jones style. Then it says the MT of Olives splits in two and a new valley is created and that a river will flow from Jerusalem year round and that the LORD who has come with His saints will be king over all the earth. Lastly it shows that all the nations from that point forward will be required to keep the feast of tabernacles or they will get no rain.
Think of Zech who predicted Jesus being betrayed for 30 pieces of silver and the money being thrown to the potter and his riding in on the foal of a donkey. The pattern has been literal and should hold up. Secondly look at Luke 1 which spoke of Jesus being a horn of salvation who would deliver Israel from their enemies and from that point on they would worship and serve the LORD in righteousness and holiness all the days of their lives. You see Paul said blindness has come upon Israel in part until .., Until the 2nd coming. In Zech the whole chapter is using the word LORD JHWH and it says in that day they will say the LORD is one. This is Jesus clearly coming with his saints and giving the literal deliverance LUKE 1 promised and from that point on they understand Jesus and Jehova are one. The passages that speak of Jesus coming with his saints are in Jude and Rev and Satan being bound and those beheaded will live and reign with him 1000 years. The scriptures are well established that upon the throne of David he will sit. Yes Jesus is on His fathers throne in heaves and that is not Davids throne. The scriptures speak of Judah and Israel the two kingdoms having one head again and that many nations will be joined to the LORD in that day.
The new covenant many have presented and 1st off I love the new covenant the glory in it. The errors of new covenant theology are not in their message of salvation as that is 100 % correct. It is in their eschatology. You can see Israel is in the cross hairs of all the nations and a one world government is rising and preparation for the return of the daily sacrifices have all been made. The futurist view of eschatology is screaming the very specifics for the peace covenant between Israel and the many starting the 70th week of Daniel are evident. The return of the sacrifice is critical for the antichrsit to commit the abomination of desolation in the middle of the week. Some argue this all happened in 70AD and yet who can remember any two witnesses arising at that time and the scope of the plagues in REV is global the catastrophes promised never happened. If the futurist view is wrong why are all the players on the stage right now taking the exact position described in the scriptures? Yes Jesus will comes and every eye will see him and he will be kind over all the earth for 1000 years while Satan is bound.
Problem 1:
Part of the Israelites were blinded as to who the Messiah is and part of them are not. All of the Israelites were not partially blinded.
Problem 2:
Based on the parable of the virgins, nobody will be given a second chance at salvation because of their genealogy at the Second Coming of Christ.
Problem 3:
The Futurist view has been used to promote the greatest deception in the history of the Church by claiming that modern Jews will come to salvation outside of the Church. The Olive Tree of Romans 11 is a symbol of the New Covenant Church made up of Israelites and Gentiles grafted together into one tree. Paul said the branches broken off can be grafted back in through faith in Christ. There is no separate tree. There is no Plan B outside of the New Covenant Church.
Problem 4:
We are to view the Old Testament through the eyes of the New Testament authors, instead of vice-versa.
Problem 5:
The Two Peoples of God doctrine of modern Dispensational Theology is less that 200 years old and is being used to promote the greatest fraud in the history of the Church. It has replaced the one seed in Galatians 3:16, with the many seeds. It has replaced the children of the promise, with the children of the flesh in Romans 9:8. It has replaced the word "so", with the word "then" in Romans 11:26. It has replaced the Son as the heir in Matthew 21, with those who have rejected Him as the chief cornerstone. At least part of the doctrine is based on race, instead of Grace.
Problem 6:
Why does it look like the Futurist version is correct? Because the Rothschilds and other globalists are using our faith against us. Samuel Untermeyer, who was one of the leading Zionists of his time, helped fund the publication of the Scofield Reference Bible.

At one time Pastor Chuck Baldwin was a promoter of modern Dispensational Theology.
In the video below he uses scripture to explain why he no longer holds this viewpoint.
