So, can you show me where the OT prophets, Jesus, Paul or the NT writers taught some literal 1000 years full of more-of-the-same after the second coming outside of Revelation 20? I say this as a former Premil. I could not find this anywhere else in Scripture.
For example, can you give me one single Scripture to support the theory of Rev 20 of two resurrection days separated by 1000 literal years? Can you give me one single Scripture to support the theory of Rev 20 of two judgment days separated by 1000 literal years?
Daniel 12:1-8
“When that time comes, Mikha’el, the great prince who champions your people, will stand up; and there will be a time of distress unparalleled between the time they became a nation and that moment. At that time, your people will be delivered, everyone whose name is found written in the book. Many of those sleeping in the dust of the earth will awaken, some to everlasting life and some to everlasting shame and abhorrence. But those who can discern will shine like the brightness of heaven’s dome, and those who turn many to righteousness like the stars forever and ever."
“But you, Dani’el, keep these words secret, and seal up the book until the time of the end. Many will rush here and there as knowledge increases.”
"Then I, Dani’el, looked; and I saw in front of me two others, one on this bank of the river and the other on its other bank. One of them asked the man dressed in linen who was above the water of the river, “How long will these wonders last?” The man dressed in linen who was above the water of the river raised his right and left hands toward heaven and swore by him who lives forever that it would be for a time, times and a half, and that it will be when the the power of the holy people is no longer being shattered that all these things will end."
This is a 3500 year period. The half of time covered the 69 weeks of Daniel 9. It was about 500 years from Daniel to Christ. The times is the 1991 years since the Cross. There is still 1000 years for all to be complete, and Death is the last enemy to be conquered. Those consumed by fire in Revelation 20 are the last humans who chose death, instead of life. Then Death is cast into the lake of fire at the GWT.
The earth is not going to keep getting better for the next 1000 years. The Second Coming will happen very soon and Christ will reign on earth those last set of years known as time.
Exodus 20 and the 4th Commandment. It is a prophecy containing Adam's punishment and the end of it. 6 days shalt thou labor, but the 7th Day is the Lord's Day.
