What is the purpose of the thousand-year reign of Christ?

[Riberra]

Once again you are adding the word "bodily" to the text, of the beginning of Revelation chapter 20.

John saw "souls" in heaven, which have no body.

The "time of the judgment of the dead" is way back at Revelation 11:18.
You cannot have a judgment of the dead, without a bodily resurrection of the dead.

Therefore, the "first resurrection" at the beginning of Revelation chapter 20 cannot be a bodily resurrection.
The first resurrection found in John chapter 5, is at John 5:24.

.

In Revelation 20:4-6 there is the mention AND THEY LIVED who refer to a bodily resurrection.

No such mention in Revelation 11:18 ...

John 5:24 is NOT a bodily Resurrection either...or you and I and every Christians will be actually living with an immortal incorruptible body and we should be able to go through walls like Jesus ....which is obviously NOT the case.

 

[Denadii]

God builds the doctrine as clearly seen in Matthew 25:31-46, you can't run or hide from its truth

When Jesus returns with the Holy angels, the final judgment, eternal life, eternal kingdom takes place.

Verse 31-32 Jesus returns with the angels, the nations are gathered before the throne for judgment.

Verse 34 the "Eternal Kingdom" is offered to the righteous.

Verse 41 the wicked are judged to the eternal lake of fire

Verse 46 the righteous obtain "Eternal Life" and enter the "Eternal Kingdom" in verse 34

Thats God's Truth

Why are you ignoring all the other references?

Why are you ignoring all the other references?

What references, you havent posted any?

There is not one place in the scripture that teaches of a 1000 year kingdom on this earth, with mortal humans present, as Jesus Christ the Eternal God, sits on a throne in Jerusalem, "Not One"

You don't believe the very clear teaching in Matthew 25:31-46, showing you clearly that when Jesus returns "Eternity Begins" your mind is made up, dont ya think

My point is...You've taken a few verses in one book and built yourself a doctrine on them..What? A five verse group? But you've ignored all the other verses in the bible. Those verses are all throughout this discussion. Have you read any of them?
I don't recall anyone saying that there will be immortal humans in the millenium. Of course there will be!

You don't believe the very clear teaching in Matthew 25:31-46, showing you clearly that when Jesus returns "Eternity Begins"...

-With what kind of body will you start eternity on the New Earth?

-What will be the difference betwen the New Earth and the Actual Earth except that there will be no sea Revelation 21:1?

-Will you need to breath air, and eat and drink water on the New Earth ?

-Will there be animals on the New Earth ?

There will be no future 1000 year kingdom on this earth, as many claim in error.

Matthew 25:31-46 teaches Jesus Christ returns in the Final Judgment, Eternal Life, Eternal Kingdom.

Verse 31-32 Jesus returns with the Holy angels, the nations are gathered for Judgment before the throne

Verse 34 The "Eternal Kingdom" is presented for the righteous

Verse 41 The wicked are judged to the final, eternal lake of fire.

Verse 46 The righteous obtain "Eternal Life" and enter the "Eternal Kingdom" in verse 34

Jesus Christ Is Lord

Very good questions? What kind of animals did God create on the present Earth? We're already in eternity. Eternity has no beginning.....What kind of body? There will be no limits to where we can go so....

We will be limited to the Earth area...eternally...God Himself will live on the Earth Revelation 21 --Revelation 22.

The believer will have a glorified eternal body like Jesus Christ has.

God creates a New Heaven, Earth, There will be no death, and yes there will be animals, eating of fruit tree of life, fish and nets.

As I have shown you "Several Times" "Sea" in Revelation 21:1 represents masses of people, not water as in ocean

Revelation 13:1 the beast rose out of the "Sea" masses of people, not water/ocean

Ah! These speak of the millenium period. Not the time following. Look at it this way....The millenium (1000 years) Inside of time. It has a start and a finish. Eternity is outside of time. No beginning, no end.
Technically God does not live on Earth during the millenium, nor do we. God and the bride live in the New Jerusalem above the Earth. The other Christians live on the Earth. Those that are not part of the bride.

 

[Truth7t7]

God will live in his "New Created" earth Isaiah 65:17-29, Revelation 21:1-5

This present earth is passed away, dissolved by the Lords fire in judgment 2 Peter 3:10-13

There will be no future 1000 year kingdom on this earth, a fictitious teaching found no place in the scripture.

Post a scripture, other than Rev 20 that we have covered, you continue to write, but no provision of scripture?

Because there isnt any

Show it again. There was a bit of dust in the air that hid it before.

No such mention in Revelation 11:18 ...

John 5:24 is NOT a bodily Resurrection either...or you and I and every Christians will be actually living with an immortal incorruptible body and we should be able to go through walls like Jesus ....which is obviously NOT the case.

I never said John 5:24 is a bodily resurrection.
It is a spiritual resurrection, which occurs upon faith in Christ.

You have been passed from death to life, because of your faith in Christ, based on John 5:24.

The souls now in heaven with Christ have already been passed from spiritual death to spiritual life.
This is their first resurrection, which is found in John 5:24.
It is the reason those souls now live with Christ in heaven.

Revelation chapter 20 is filled with symbolic language.

Is it a real chain made out of steel that binds Satan, or is it a chain made of the Blood of Christ?

The two different types of resurrections in the passage as well as the length of time is also symbolic language.
It is a symbol of the Church Age.

In reference to Revelation 11:18.
Are you going to tell me you can have a time of the judgment of the dead, without a bodily resurrection of the dead, as found in John 5:27-30?

[Denadii]

God will live in his "New Created" earth Isaiah 65:17-29, Revelation 21:1-5

Again you are talking of the millenium period not 'eternity' That's the New Jerusalem and it is above the Earth...

Strange....I just read Rev 20 twice and I see no symbolic language...Could it be that you are studying the Word intellectually instead of letting the Holy Spirit teach you? Why can't you read the Word and take it as it is written?

 

[BABerean2]

Do you think Satan can be bound with a chain made of steel?

Is the key made of brass, that fits a standard padlock?

Do you think Satan is a giant flying lizard?

.

 

[Truth7t7]

Agai are talking of the millenium period not 'eternity' That's the New Jerusalem and it is above the Earth...

Isaiah 65:17-19 and Revelation 21:1-5 represents the eternal kingdom in the New Heaven, Earth, And Jerusalem.

In reference to Revelation 11:18.

If the 7th trumpet occurs first, followed by Jesus then confronting the beast and it's armies, where the remnant are slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh----how could these remnant who are not even dead when the 7th trumpet sounds be at a judgment of the dead before they are even dead?
