There are numerous dispensationalists here. I suppose it does make for necessary adjustments on your part. I trust in my heart you will eventually do just that.

But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. Acts 1;6-8 Even the apostles Knew The kingdom was to be restored to Israel and Christ would reign as king at some future time.... But first came Pentecost and the church age and the preaching of the Gospel to the uttermost parts of the earth. Simple concept really.... Simplicity is in Christ Jesus (2 cor 11:3) To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

So I ask for the exegesis and get refused. If and when you're ready to further the op-relevant conversation I'll read it and respond accordingly. Otherwise, you've said, "No," and I accept that. Can't wait to see you practice it. A thousand years is a thousand years, this is simple common sense, no exegesis required, no convoluted theological language to explain the simplicity of scripture, Just like Paul said: But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. (2 Cor 11:3) Subtility= Panourgia, Which is cunning craftiness, and a Specious or false wisdom. This basically is theosophy, which is what you are promoting, nothing more, and I am not the only one here who sees this here. So the question then becomes, should we "play along" or expose this to others who do not see? I choose to expose this for the benefit of others.

I’ll email you a copy as well. Thanks, brother. Here's my problem. When I want to download a photo or picture regardless of origin or format, gif, jpeg, Getty or Pintrest, etc., I can get it into my Pictures file for "save" and post it later by a right click of the mouse = Save to photos. I'm getting all these other means of saving them, but here's what I'm getting off this picture. Open image in a new tab Save image as... Copy image address Search Google for image (I did do this - same info) Cut Copy Paste (none of the three above works) Paste as plain text Nothing is giving me the "Save to photos" which is the only pictures app I can utilize. At this point it's in a JPEG app file of some sort and I can't do a thing with it. I have it but can't use it. What a bummer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is written. I don't know you, but am beginning to think you are a preterist of some ilk. And then having the problem with a literal 1000 years, an Amillenialist. So, nice talking to you, we've reached an impasse though I'm afraid. Take care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The underlying Greek, uses the prepostion "epi". That word is a pretty fluid word, one needs to look at the context in the passage, as well as apply rules of grammar in the sentence to help determine what is meant. The translators have done that, and that is why you see on or upon or over, because all of those are legitimate. Had they just chosen any possible meaning of epi, the word occurs 669 times in the New Testament, They could have used as as long as at at the time about about the time after against among around basis because bedridden before besides beyond by certainly charge concerning connection embraced extent further in in as much into on onto over point referring time to together toward truly under unto upon view within So yeah, I am going to go with the translators' understanding that it either should be understood as on the earth, or over the earth, and the two are not necessarily exclusive. There is no reason (for example) that a ruler cannot be on the earth as he rules over the earth. Are you looking to discover if those in Rev 5:10 are physically present, or ruling from afar, I suggest you read some commentaries, and see what others, more educated and just as likely to be indwelt by the Spirit as anyone here at Worthy. It will be hard for a person not to carry their views of the millennium into their understanding, which will tend to color what they conclude. Sorry that I cannot be more helpful or less vague, but I would suggest also, that you look to other verses and passages, and see it they can shed more light that this verse in isolation. To be honest, I did not even take the time to look to see if the 1000 years, were specifically in view here, I just assumed from the title, that you are making that assumption. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
