Who’ll be tempted after the 1000 years?

[Petros2015]

So there seem to be a lot of different positions here. These are some of the various ones I have seen on this thread.

a) We are in the 1,000 year period
b) the 1,000 year period has already ended
c) the 1,000 year period has not started
d) there isn't going to be a 1,000 year period, it's all metaphorical.

Just out of curiousity, is anyone expecting Christ NOT to return, or they think he already has?

Are we on our own here, at anything more than a personal belief level?

 

[ewq1938]

Rev 2:25 But that which ye have already hold fast till I come.

That is the second coming.

Rev 2:26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:

After "the end" comes, there is given power over the nations to those that are overcomers which naturally includes those who "are alive and remain" at the second coming. They will be given power over the nations.

Rev 2:27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.

After the second coming and after "the end" will the overcomers be given power over the nations, ruling them with a rod of iron. That proves the rod of iron rule over the nations does not even start until Christ has returned and has given overcomers this power to rule over the nations.
