Since you were responding to D) on that list, in regards to 2 Peter 3:13, there are some of us Premils who tend to think the new heavens and new earth begins with Christ's return, which means that the thousand years are the first thousand years of the everlasting NHNE. Granted, most Premils do not agree with that, yet there are some Premils that do. The reason why I do is because it is ludicrous to think that when Christ returns, there won't be righteousness dwelling in the earth at the time. Which means to me, though there might be some still sinning or whatever, justice will be fair. Thus no crooked courts, no crooked judges, no crooked lawyers, etc. Everything will be dealt with righteously and with perfect justice, thus a place wherein dwelleth righteousness. And since I'm not convinced that the thousand years pertain to the here and now, but am convinced that the 2nd coming ushers in the NHNE at that time, I have no choice but to conclude what I do. Right or wrong.That means the 490 years aren’t fulfilled until after Satans little season. Everyone I know that has a gap in the 490 years has them being fulfilled just prior to the second coming of Christ, before the millennium not after.
I’m not arguing against a gap, just that if it is fulfilled prior to the millennium then it doesn’t seem to make sense unless it is being interpreted similarly to how CG is interpreting it.
