Reading and Interpreting the Literature of God's Word, under the Power of The Holy Spirit, allowing God to Use what figures of speech, in language, He Chooses.
In The Book of Revelation, God Chose to 'signify'.
How about "the truth sets you free"? And what Jesus suffered to produce it? How about trying to find one passage in the gospels or epistles that teach any type of millennium. It was after all a pharisee doctrine.
It's the Pharisees' interpretation of a millennium instead of Christ's teaching on the kingdom that's the problem. Many today reject Christ's gospel of the kingdom, as preached by Peter at Pentecost. Avoid preaching it, preferring the Pharisees physical kingdom version instead. They created Millenarianism.
I think they are bound by false teaching. But I won't attend their churches. Some of my favorite Theologians were Postmillennial, but it has slid into Dominion Theology today and now have innocent blood on their hands even by thinking as they do. Same with Pro Israel Millennialists simply by thinking as they do. https://www.globalresearch.ca/milli...d-war-iii-to-speed-up-the-second-coming/29362
He set his feet on earth the first time and there is no scripture saying he will set his feet on earth the second time... Brother Glen:)
1 Thessalonians 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
4:18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
If you can find a millennial reign in there your welcome to it!
