Why I am a Post-Millennialist

Too many people give their own words to scripture or spiritualize the words. Yes, some of the content in Revelation is spiritual and needs to be studied but much of it is to be taken literal. If a person takes a literal interpretation of Revelation they would never come up with Post Millennial.

I expect most people never read the BIBLE,  and even fewer people ever read REVELATION.

A false interpretation, spiritual and fanciful,  was produced and written up centuries ago (I forget the names and references found 2 or 3 years ago,  but probably still available on searching) ,   in order to further keep people deceived and unless they pursued the TRUTH themselves outside of their support system they grew up with they never find out.

I believe mostly that they never got so far as to "give their own words to scripture ",  having instead swallowed what they were told without ever even thinking to test it by SCRIPTURE.  Billions on earth today remain deceived just because of this, about many things including salvation.

"

Why I am Post-Millennialist   (or a Spiritual Post Bi-Millennianist)!

Post-Millennialism teaches that Christ comes back after the Millennium"

Christ wont come back after the millennium because He will be here ruling the Earth during the entire millennium.

And have redeemed us to God by Your blood
Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation,

 Rev 5:10  NKJV   And have made us kings and priests to our God;
And we shall reign on the earth.”

God seems to say something different from what you are saying.  

But welcome to Worthy, Limey.  I am sure that many agree with you.   All whose names are written in the Lamb's Book of Life will  eventually learn the truth.  

Blessings,

Willa

Well,   for instance,   we (called and chosen and set apart born again ones) become priests in HIS KINGDOM,  not all ruling - a KINGDOM has one KING, and many PRIESTS.  THis is borne out historically and in all of SCRIPTURE.

Rev 1:6, And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

Jesus Christ and His saints will reign on the earth in the millennium and in the New Earth forever (Rev. 5: 10; 2:26-27; 11:15; 20:4-10; 22:2; Dan. 7:18).

Jesus is and will be King of Kings and Lord of Lord's. we will rule, under Him and the Father, separate nations, governments, societies, what ever we are allocated.

Rev. 2:  26-27, And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: V. 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.

Dan. 7: 18, But the saints of the most High shall take the kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever.

You did a fine job in explaining  the where's  of each Millennial position but a little short on the what's  of each position .

 I think that where you place the Millennium is dependent  entirely upon what you believe it's ultimate purpose  to be .

Based upon a specific  stated belief in  purpose , can the claim then be made that  one of these positions , " Pre, Post, A " , stands out from the others ?

How so ?

Hi Limey,
This position didn't work out well for you at CARM forum being you became rather threatening there when members didn't accept your position. Let's hope you are in a better place being that was just yesterday, yes? 

Welcome.
