Kate Wand does excellent videos of a shorter duration, as well as longer interview-conversational type videos, as well.

We also follow each other on Twitter.
I like her, articulate and well prepared as well as interesting content. Rare these days.

Methinks that is the solution of the post you quoted.

Thy kingdom come on earth.

Which happened, in general, in a New Testament sense, with the establishment of the church on the day of Pentecost around 30 A.D., and has been happening individually since the fall of man in the Garden of Eden as God's elect hear the gospel and are regenerated by the Holy Spirit and given the gifts of faith and repentance from dead works.

There, I introduced the Biblical solution.

Furthermore, all countries have whatever form of government that God has sovereignly put in place, with the leaders that He has sovereignly placed in authority.

We can, of course, discuss the size, reach, and scope of government, our being fallen beings notwithstanding.

@KenH not a popular view on the BB

Biblical not popular

@KenH


Is this verse inclusive in that view?

And the seventh messenger did sound, and there came great voices in the heaven, saying, 'The kingdoms of the world did become those of our Lord and of His Christ, and he shall reign to the ages of the ages!' Rev 11:15 YLT

Has V 18 already taken place?

Tell me what is wrong with the following.

for since through man is the death, also through man is a rising again of the dead, for even as in Adam all die, so also in the Christ all shall be made alive, and each in his proper order, a first-fruit Christ, afterwards those who are the Christ's, in his presence, 1 Cor 15:21-23
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given to them, and the souls of those who have been beheaded because of the testimony of Jesus, and because of the word of God, and who did not bow before the beast, nor his image, and did not receive the mark upon their forehead and upon their hand, and they did live and reign with Christ the thousand years; Rev 20:4
for it behoveth him to reign till he may have put all the enemies under his feet -- the last enemy is done away -- death; 1 Cor 15:25,26

1 Cor 15:24 then -- the end, [ Rev 20:5,7,10,13 and the rest of the dead did not live again till the thousand years may be finished; 5 And when the thousand years may be finished, the Adversary shall be loosed out of his prison, 7 and the Devil, who is leading them astray, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where are the beast and the false prophet, and they shall be tormented day and night -- to the ages of the ages. 10 and the sea did give up those dead in it, and the death and the hades did give up the dead in them, and they were judged, each one according to their works;] when he may deliver up the reign to God, even the Father, when he may have made useless all rule, and all authority and power --


Being made alive

Christ
Those who are Christ's at his appearing
Devil chained 1000 years, Christ and saints reign 1000 years, on the earth,
After 1000 years devil released then cast into lake of fire
Rest of the dead made alive for judgement

and as it is laid up to men once, to die, and after this -- judgment, Heb 9:27

Are you judged while dead or after you are made alive?

I love that this is in the news forum.

Rather than get involved in discussing the book of Revelation, I will direct you to my favorite commentary on the book, a free pdf, by William Hendriksen, entitled, "More Than Conquerors" - Hendricksen-W-More_Than_Conquerors_-1940.pdf (tn-biblecollege.edu)

Are you judged while dead or after you are made alive?

God already judged His elect in Christ at the cross when all of their sins were imputed to Him and He paid the price of their sin debt. Christ's perfect righteousness in fulfilling the law was imputed to God's elect so that they stand completely guilt-free before God.

The reprobates have nothing but their own faulty, imperfect works to stand before God, and they will be judged as not having a perfect righteousness and are sent to the fate of those who are reprobates.
