The resurrection doesn't happen on the final 24 hour period.The resurrection happens on the LAST DAY as also does Christ's return
Not true. Many miss, or conveniently avoid, the important dynamic between “the days” (plural) and “the day” (singular) in the New Testament. Those who reject this out of hand often do so for doctrinal reasons do so because it cuts across their end-time theology.Jesus' discusses the final age, which he calls "the last day", and is much longer than 24 hours.
I have committed myself to the literal, grammatical, and historical method of interpretation. I take any biblical text to be literal, like the statement that there is a Millennial Temple. But, if after trying to interpret the text the literal does not fit, I would look at another method of interpretation. The literalist applies common sense when he/she interprets the text. I say this so neophytes don't say well "Jesus said he was a door, so he must literally be a door. That is simple ignorance of interpreted methods.I also do not believe in a millennial temple of animal sacrifices to God, Christ and the apostles never taught it. If it was real they would have.
In the NC with God, animal sacrifices have been done away with.I have committed myself to the literal, grammatical, and historical method of interpretation.

Strange to say that as that is what Christ says. As did also Martha about her brother right to Christ's face.The resurrection doesn't happen on the final 24 hour period.
Hey, look who it is. How exciting. Once again you provide no meaningful input, as usual. Would you care to try to be less vague and explain why you said this?And this pretty much defeats Amillennialism.
Just look at what you had said. He too believes that the Millennium will be realized before the last day. That's what he agrees with. Is there something hard to understand about that?How do we agree?
What scripture are you basing this on?Ah, well the NC prophecy is the more sure word of prophecy and a superior revelation. I also do not believe in a millennial temple of animal sacrifices to God, Christ and the apostles never taught it. If it was real they would have.
I do believe the Jews will build a 3rd temple which Antichrist figure will claim as his own sit it in and claim he is God. The Jews still reject Christ to this day. I would not want to be near or have anything to do with it.
So, in your view, Satan will have more influence on the world immediately after being released then Jesus had the previous thousand years combined. And you are comfortable with believing that?Satan is not bound.
How anyone could look at what Happened in Israel on Oct 7, 2 world wars that killed millions, Communism, and socialistic dictatorship nations. and everythign else going on, and think Satan has no control over any of it because he is bound.. well I just do not know what to say.
The word says when Satan is bound, Christ will rule. with a rod of iron. there will be peace. unlike peace this world has ever seen. World order will be restored. the whole world will point to the savior. who reigns.
Then at the end, Satan is released again, and again his influence is seen so that again he gathers his armies to appose God and is defeated for the final time..
Because I agree: "The Millennial kingdom will be realized before the last day."How do we agree?
Maybe this one, referring to the NC?What scripture are you basing this on?
I'm wondering if you understood my question or not. You said "I do believe the Jews will build a 3rd temple which Antichrist figure will claim as his own sit it in and claim he is God.". Where exactly are you seeing that taught in these passages you quoted? You did mention the NC as well in your post, but I wasn't asking about that.Maybe this one, referring to the NC?
Rev 19:10
10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
2 Peter 1
15 Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my decease to have these things always in remembrance.
16 For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.
17 For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
18 And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.
19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:
Just look at what you had said. He too believes that the Millennium will be realized before the last day. That's what he agrees with. Is there something hard to understand about that?
The last day is the day that believers are resurrected (John 6:40). And they are resurrected when Jesus returns (1 Cor 15:22-23, 1 Thess 4:14-17, etc.). So, that places the timing of the Millennium before the day Jesus returns. That supports Amill. So, what you said supports Amill, but you don't even know it.
When did you decide that you are God? You clearly think you are God since you think you know my intentions and you think I'm being dishonest here. But, I'm not.Except you are twisting what he said and meant, and you know it.
That's irrelevant.He clearly said it is not a 24 hour day.
That is absolutely not what I was doing! My point was that he was agreeing that the millennium occurs before the last day, regardless of his understanding of when the millennium occurs. That's it. I know he is a Premill, so why would I try to act like he wasn't? That's stupid. I would never do that. Stop this nonsense already. I know we disagree on things, but that doesn't give you an excuse to misrepresent and judge me like this and act like you are God. You're better than this. Or at least you should be.Davidpt said:For some reason you want to twist what he said and meant in order to make it appear he believes that the millennium is before the 2nd coming rather than after.
Yes, I know that and I didn't say otherwise. Read my post again! Where did I say anything to suggest he isn't a Premil? Nowhere! All I did was show that he agreed that the Millennium occurs before the last day. That's it! I was not trying to make it seem like he is an Amill. Why in the world would I do that? I'm not going to try to tell him what he believes. He is a Premill and I can't say otherwise. It's just interesting that he agrees with Amills like WPM and me that the Millennium occurs before the last day. It doesn't make him an Amill, of course, but it's just interesting. I'm not sure that I've ever seen a Premill make that claim before.Except you already clearly know, and you can't deny it, that he takes the millennium to be after the 2nd coming.
You are the one being dishonest here with your claim that I was twisting his words, which is 100% false. You shold apologize. I will tell you again what my motive was. May God strike me down immediatley if what I say is not true. My motive, since CadyAndZoe asked a question, was simply to answer his question and explain what he and WPM were in agreement about. That's it. And then I gave my understanding of the last day, but that was just something I added and wasn't part of answering the question.What is your motive for doing this? I thought you were all about being honest about things?
I didn't say otherwise. Your post here proves that you are either a liar or you have poor reading comprehension skills. I don't really think you are a liar, so that leaves only one option.His post proves that many of you have zero clue how context is supposed to work. In context he said the last day is not 24 hours.
You waste so much time with your straw man arguments. No Amil agrees with that, so why would you think that I was saying that he and WPM were in agreement about that? You need to be more careful to pay attention to what is actually being said. I'm simply saying they are in agreement that the Millennium occurs before the last day, regardless of when the Millennium occurs or how long the last day lasts.What Amil agrees with that, since it would obviously mean that the last day would also be involving the millennium after He returns, per his view?
If there is no physically rebuilt temple made by the Jews, the other idea of Satan inhabiting the temple of God as in possessing believers and owning them makes no sense. Satan cannot drive out the Holy Spirit from a person, and a saved person will not drive Him out either.I'm wondering if you understood my question or not. You said "I do believe the Jews will build a 3rd temple which Antichrist figure will claim as his own sit it in and claim he is God.". Where exactly are you seeing that taught in these passages you quoted? You did mention the NC as well in your post, but I wasn't asking about that.
