you are equating the 1st resurrection at the beginning of the Millennium with the 2nd Final Resurrection after the Millennium and after the ensuing period of God & Magog ?““Do not be amazed at this, because a time is coming when all who are in the tombs will hear his voice and will come out—the ones who have done what is good to the resurrection resulting in life, and the ones who have done what is evil to the resurrection resulting in condemnation.” (John 5:28–29)
Notice the TWO resurrections happen on the last day.
““Do not be amazed at this, because a time is coming when all who are in the tombs will hear his voice and will come out—the ones who have done what is good to the resurrection resulting in life, and the ones who have done what is evil to the resurrection resulting in condemnation.” (John 5:28–29)
Notice the TWO resurrections happen on the last day. Not 1000 - 1007 years apart. And as I've proven, this all happens on the last day.
“Now this is the will of the one who sent me—that I should not lose one person of every one he has given me, but raise them all up at the last day.” (John 6:39)
“For this is the will of my Father—for everyone who looks on the Son and believes in him to have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.”” (John 6:40)
“Jesus replied, “Your brother will come back to life again.”Martha said, “I know that he will come back to life again in the resurrection at the last day.”” (John 11:23–24)
And Paul: “For the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a shout of command, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be suddenly caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will always be with the Lord.” (1 Thessalonians 4:16–17)
you are equating the 1st resurrection at the beginning of the Millennium with the 2nd Final Resurrection after the Millennium and after the ensuing period of God & Magog ?
thought the 1st resurrection at the beginning of the Millennium was a "special privilege" for Christian martyrs up to that time? Everyone else, including saints during the Millennium, await the "second final main resurrection" after the Millennium and after the era of Gog & Magog ??And if that is the case, that would be some pretty strange theology. Obviously the resurrection of the just in John 5:29 is a physical resurrection and is obviously meaning the first resurrection per Revelation 20. And if the first resurrection per Revelation 20 happens at the beginning of the thousand years, we then know we are not in the millennium yet, because if we were, John 5:29 and the physical resurrection of the just would have already been fulfilled, yet it hasn't. No one would even argue it has.

“Do not marvel at this, for an hour is coming when all who are in the tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment.” (John 5:28–29)Still, all the passages you are supplying here, they only fit this resurrection----the ones who have done what is good to the resurrection resulting in life
All John 5:28–29 tells us is, that there will be a resurrection of the just and unjust. It doesn't indicate in that passage that they happen at the same time, or even on the same day, for that matter. It wouldn't matter if the resurrection of the unjust happened a million years later after the resurrection of the just. It would still fulfill what Jesus said---that the hour has come for the unjust to also hear His voice and rise from the dead.
Yes. But the resurrection of the righteous begins with the New Birth and finishes with the resurrection of the body.you are equating the 1st resurrection at the beginning of the Millennium with the 2nd Final Resurrection after the Millennium and after the ensuing period of God & Magog ?
So your "millennium" is only a day long?Altough you have flatly refused to accept it, I have already posted numerous scriptures which plainly and obviously used the word "day," and likewise the word "hour," to represent a period of time of undetermined length. This is beyond debate. It is a simple fact. Therefore, your citation of these scriptures does not prove your theory, no matter what you say.
And very many other scriptures explicitly state things that conclusively disprove your theory.
“Do not marvel at this, for an hour is coming when all who are in the tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil to the resurrection of judgment.” (John 5:28–29)
“Martha said, “I know that he will come back to life again in the resurrection at the last day.” Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live even if he dies,” (John 11:24–25)I don't see the problem? Isn't that same Greek word for hour used in the following verse as well? Do you also take that hour to only involve a single hour, thus all of that is fulfilled the same day, too?
John 5:25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
So your "millennium" is only a day long?
“Martha said, “I know that he will come back to life again in the resurrection at the last day.” Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live even if he dies,” (John 11:24–25)
What are the chances her brother will rise unto the resurrection of damnation? I would say zero. Therefore, you have only proved that the resurrection unto life happens at the last day, and not also the resurrection unto damnation. I don't even dispute the resurrection unto life happens at the last day.
It all happens, both resurrections in the same hour.What are the chances her brother will rise unto the resurrection of damnation? I would say zero. Therefore, you have only proved that the resurrection unto life happens at the last day, and not also the resurrection unto damnation. I don't even dispute the resurrection unto life happens at the last day.
So what is your millennium? One day or one thousand years or neither? I say it is neither. Your problems arise when you make the 1000 the kingdom. When it represents the binding of Satan. Satan is loosed when it ends.....And why not?
2 Peter 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
Paul says Christ delivers the kingdom up to the Father at the resurrection. This takes place on the last day (multiple scriptures already cited). So Satan must cram everything he does, Gog, Magog, Armageddon, etc., after the 1000 years into a few hours to make your theory work. Plus there aren't any saints left on earth for him to attack. They are all with Jesus in the new heavens and earth.Still, all the passages you are supplying here, they only fit this resurrection----the ones who have done what is good to the resurrection resulting in life

Eternal punishment occurs when Christ comes, no?
and to grant relief to you who are afflicted as well as to us, when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels in flaming fire, inflicting vengeance on those who do not know God and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. They will suffer the punishment of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might, when he comes on that day to be glorified in his saints, and to be marveled at among all who have believed, because our testimony to you was believed.

If you think the 1000 years of Rev 20 might be only 1 day, which is it? 1000 years or 1 day?If one day and a thousand years are the same, I then don't understand your question. That would be like asking someone, which are you meaning then, January or winter?
