Is the 1000 year kingdom literal?

[Protestantismvsthebible]

In light of
Luke 1:33
And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
If its a 1000 years then it must end???

The 1000 years are not the kingdom They are the binding of Satan. When they end Satan is loosed.

 

[HTacianas]

The idea of a 1000 year kingdom, or a millennium, or by whatever name it goes by, was abrogated by Christianity. See "chiliasm".

The thousand years is the binding of Satan, but why can't it also be part of the kingdom? How would you define "the kingdom"?

The kingdom is forever. The 1000 years is Satan's binding through the saints preaching the gospel. When God looses Satan the kingdom continues forever but the 1000 years does not.

All true, but what do you think the kingdom is?

Surely you can figure out what is meant by comparing all the Scripture about the future world to come after the 1,000 years simply by reading all of Rev.20.

Study 1 Corinthians 15:23-28. Jesus must... first reign over all His enemies, then He will deliver the kingdom up to The Father, and The whole Godhead will then be "all in all" according to Apostle Paul. Rev.11 on the 7th trumpet tells you all the kingdoms become those of both The Father and His Christ (meaning Jesus Christ).

Who wouldn't know the answer to this except one who doesn't understand or believe that Jesus Christ IS... God, come in the flesh. Can God be separated from God??? Of course not! Neither can Jesus' reign end, as it would mean God's reign has an end, which will never happen.

Shirley? Who is Shirley ?



No, most people never figure out what is meant, ever. (Scripture says most don't even turn to God to be helped in time of trouble)

Not true at all.
It is not what Yahweh says in Scripture, no.
Notice the saints have NOT bound hasatan in the pit in chains,
and the saints do not bind hasatan in the future 1000 years written in Scripture either.

 

[Dave L]

The kingdom is spiritual, not of this world, it is within you, it comes without observation, and one must be born again to see it. All according to Jesus. It will never be a physical earthly kingdom many expect to see. They want a kingdom of sight. But the kingdom is of faith.

When the 1000 years end, Satan is loosed = the 1000 = the binding of Satan.

That's because it's an angel... that will bind Satan into his pit prison during the future 1,000 years of Revelation 20...

Rev 20:1-3
20:1 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.

2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,

3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.
KJV

Most likely, that will be the Archangel Michael that will do that binding of Satan into chains.

Agreed, but then doesn't that mean the thousand years is also part of the kingdom? Or do you think the thousand years is future?

 

[BABerean2]

Is New Jerusalem found in Galatians 4:25-26, and Hebrews 11:15-16, and Hebrews 12:22-24, and Revelation 21, a real place?

Was the Garden of Eden a real place?

The thousand years is a symbol for Satan's binding by the saints. It began, not as literal time, but as a symbol for Satan's binding in John the Baptists day, throughout Jesus' ministry and exorcisms. And continues where ever we preach the gospel.

Do you expect to see red dragons and green horses floating around in outer space too? Why not look instead at what the symbols represent and view history, the present and the future as John intended?

 

[LittleLambofJesus]

When the 1000 years end, Satan is loosed = the 1000 = the binding of Satan.

The 1000yrs starts after Armageddon correct?

The 1000 years are the binding of Satan by the saints preaching the gospel. When Satan is loosed they end but the kingdom is forever and continues.

 

[Chinchilla]

As literal as was the Wine in his Cup .

Matthew 26:29
“But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.”

Not sure what you mean. Are you saying they are already now preaching in the 1000yr period?
