Ok then, let's clarify this a little - maybe you can convince me. What do you consider the single most explicit statement from scripture that would not support amillennialism? (Except from Revelation, that would be too easy to refute.)
I will give you several.
Eze 36:1 "And you, son of man, prophesy to the mountains of Israel, and say, 'O mountains of Israel, hear the word of the LORD! 2 Thus says the Lord GOD: "Because the enemy has said of you, 'Aha! The ancient heights have become our possession,' " ' 3 therefore prophesy, and say, 'Thus says the Lord GOD: "Because they made
you desolate and swallowed you up on every side, so that you became the possession of the rest of the nations, and you are taken up by the lips of talkers and slandered by the people"-- 4 therefore, O mountains of Israel, hear the word of the Lord GOD! Thus says the Lord GOD to the mountains, the hills, the rivers, the valleys, the desolate wastes, and the cities that have been forsaken, which became plunder and mockery to the rest of the nations all around-- 5 therefore thus says the Lord GOD: "Surely I have spoken in My burning jealousy against the rest of the nations and against all Edom, who gave My land to themselves as a possession, with whole-hearted joy
and spiteful minds, in order to plunder its open country." ' 6 Therefore prophesy concerning the land of Israel, and say to the mountains, the hills, the rivers, and the valleys, 'Thus says the Lord GOD: "Behold, I have spoken in My jealousy and My fury, because you have borne the shame of the nations." 7 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: "I have raised My hand in an oath that surely the nations that
are around you shall bear their own shame. 8 "But you, O mountains of Israel, you shall shoot forth your branches and yield your fruit to My people Israel, for they are about to come. 9 For indeed I
am for you, and I will turn to you, and you shall be tilled and sown. 10 I will multiply men upon you, all the house of Israel, all of it; and the cities shall be inhabited and the ruins rebuilt. 11 I will multiply upon you man and beast; and they shall increase and bear young; I will make you inhabited as in former times, and do better
for you than at your beginnings. Then you shall know that I
am the LORD.
Ezekiel 36:1-11
Here, the Lord very explicitly tells "the mountains of Israel," with "the hills, the rivers, the valleys, the desolate wastes, and the cities that have been forsaken," that they will again be inhabited by "all the house of Israel, all of it." There is no way to even pretend that absolutely all of "the house of Israel" has ever inhabited that land at any time since these words were uttered. And it would be totally irrational to claim that this explicit language is symbolically speaking of the church inhabiting --- what?
Again, we read:
Eze 47:13 Thus says the Lord GOD: "These
are the borders by which you shall divide the land as an inheritance among the twelve tribes of Israel. Joseph
shall have two portions. 14 You shall inherit it equally with one another; for I raised My hand in an oath to give it to your fathers, and this land shall fall to you as your inheritance. 15 This
shall be the border of the land on the north: from the Great Sea,
by the road to Hethlon, as one goes to Zedad, 16 Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim (which
is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath), to Hazar Hatticon (which
is on the border of Hauran). 17 Thus the boundary shall be from the Sea to Hazar Enan, the border of Damascus; and as for the north, northward, it is the border of Hamath.
This is the north side. 18 On the east side you shall mark out the border from between Hauran and Damascus, and between Gilead and the land of Israel, along the Jordan, and along the eastern side of the sea.
This is the east side. 19 The south side, toward the South,
shall be from Tamar to the waters of Meribah by Kadesh, along the brook to the Great Sea.
This is the south side, toward the South. 20 The west side
shall be the Great Sea, from the
southern boundary until one comes to a point opposite Hamath. This
is the west side. 21 "Thus you shall divide this land among yourselves according to the tribes of Israel.
Ezekiel 47:13-21
Here, the Lord explicitly defined the borders of that nation in that coming day. And there is no way to even pretend that these borders were ever established after this was written. And there is no rational way to apply this to "the church."
And finally (for now)
Eze 48:1 "Now these
are the names of the tribes: From the northern border along the road to Hethlon at the entrance of Hamath, to Hazar Enan, the border of Damascus northward, in the direction of Hamath,
there shall be one
section for Dan from its east to its west side; 2 by the border of Dan, from the east side to the west, one
section for Asher; 3 by the border of Asher, from the east side to the west, one
section for Naphtali; 4 by the border of Naphtali, from the east side to the west, one
section for Manasseh; 5 by the border of Manasseh, from the east side to the west, one
section for Ephraim; 6 by the border of Ephraim, from the east side to the west, one
section for Reuben; 7 by the border of Reuben, from the east side to the west, one
section for Judah; 8 "by the border of Judah, from the east side to the west, shall be the district which you shall set apart, twenty-five thousand
cubits in width, and
in length the same as one of the
other portions, from the east side to the west, with the sanctuary in the center. 9 "The district that you shall set apart for the LORD
shall be twenty-five thousand
cubits in length and ten thousand in width. 10 To these--to the priests--the holy district shall belong: on the north twenty-five thousand
cubits in length, on the west ten thousand in width, on the east ten thousand in width, and on the south twenty-five thousand in length. The sanctuary of the LORD shall be in the center. 11
It shall be for the priests of the sons of Zadok, who are sanctified, who have kept My charge, who did not go astray when the children of Israel went astray, as the Levites went astray. 12 And
this district of land that is set apart shall be to them a thing most holy by the border of the Levites. 13 "Opposite the border of the priests, the Levites
shall have an area twenty-five thousand
cubits in length and ten thousand in width; its entire length
shall be twenty-five thousand and its width ten thousand. 14 And they shall not sell or exchange any of it; they may not alienate this best
part of the land, for
it is holy to the LORD. 15 "The five thousand
cubits in width that remain, along the edge of the twenty-five thousand, shall be for general use by the city, for dwellings and common-land; and the city shall be in the center. 16 These
shall be its measurements: the north side four thousand five hundred
cubits, the south side four thousand five hundred, the east side four thousand five hundred, and the west side four thousand five hundred. 17 The common-land of the city shall be: to the north two hundred and fifty
cubits, to the south two hundred and fifty, to the east two hundred and fifty, and to the west two hundred and fifty. 18 The rest of the length, alongside the district of the holy
section, shall be ten thousand
cubits to the east and ten thousand to the west. It shall be adjacent to the district of the holy
section, and its produce shall be food for the workers of the city. 19 The workers of the city, from all the tribes of Israel, shall cultivate it. 20 The entire district
shall be twenty-five thousand
cubits by twenty-five thousand
cubits, foursquare. You shall set apart the holy district with the property of the city. 21 "The rest
shall belong to the prince, on one side and on the other of the holy district and of the city's property, next to the twenty-five thousand
cubits of the
holy district as far as the eastern border, and westward next to the twenty-five thousand as far as the western border, adjacent to the
tribal portions;
it shall belong to the prince. It shall be the holy district, and the sanctuary of the temple
shall be in the center. 22 Moreover, apart from the possession of the Levites and the possession of the city
which are in the midst of what
belongs to the prince,
the area between the border of Judah and the border of Benjamin shall belong to the prince. 23 As for the rest of the tribes, from the east side to the west, Benjamin
shall have one
section; 24 by the border of Benjamin, from the east side to the west, Simeon
shall have one
section; 25 by the border of Simeon, from the east side to the west, Issachar
shall have one
section; 26 by the border of Issachar, from the east side to the west, Zebulun
shall have one
section; 27 by the border of Zebulun, from the east side to the west, Gad
shall have one
section; 28 by the border of Gad, on the south side, toward the South, the border shall be from Tamar
to the waters of Meribah
by Kadesh, along the brook to the Great Sea. 29 This
is the land which you shall divide by lot as an inheritance among the tribes of Israel, and these
are their portions," says the Lord GOD.
Ezekiel 48:1-29
Here, the Lord very explicitly names each of the twelve tribes, as they will exist at that time, explicitly stating which portion of the land was to belong to each of the twelve tribes, and reserving a central section for a temple, for the priests, and for the prince who will rule at that time. And once again, there is no way to even pretend that this has ever happened, and no rational way to interpret this to mean "the church."
