| Thomas messed you up, didn't he? A common eschatological view - 1,000 years is 1,000 yearsWhen Christ reigns for 1,000 years is it a literal 1,000 years or figurative (like the cattle on a 1,000 hills or a day being 1,000 years with the Lord)? Doesn't it seem unwise in a book (Revelation) where a Lamb is not a lamb, a candlestick is a church and so much is figurative, to limit the reign of Christ to 1,000 years?Doesn't it seem wiser to interpret reigning 1,000 years the way you do 1,000 hills of cattle or a day being 1,000 years (He owns them all, He exists beyond the boundaries of time, and of the increase of His kingdom and government there shall be no end) I'm not saved because I'm good. I'm saved because He's good!My website: www.bradfreeman.comMy blog: bradcfreeman.tumblr.com/ |

| The whole thing of Jesus returning BEFORE the second coming is difficult to justify in scripture.The notion that anyone really knows who the anti-Christ is. |

| Post subject: | Mark Ledbetter: Prophetic & Apocalyptic Themes |
| are well established by the Prophets and validated by Jesus and the Apostles.Note: I refer to the themes...What baffle's me is how we got from addressing the nations, the demise of America, and the references to the Beast/Son of Lawlessness to addressing the millennial issue.From what I've read regarding the millennial it appears there is an amillennial position floating around, and this has been around since Augustine, who greatly influenced subsequent theologians who hold to a non-literal/symbolic rendering of the millennial recorded by John in Revelations 20:1-6, and possibly by Peter (2 Peter 3:8)What is certain is that a both John and Peter, both Jewish in their orientation seem to follow a more Jewish Millennial view than one held by Christians todayJewish MillennialismThe Babylonian Talmud teaches: “In the school of Elijah it is taught: The world, as we know it, was intended to exist for six thousand years--two thousand years in desolation [without Torah], two thousand years with Torah, and two thousand years of the Messiah's reign.The Talmud also teaches: “In the school of Elijah it was taught: The righteous whom the Holy One will quicken will not return to the dust. You may ask, ‘In the thousand years during which the Holy One will renew His world, what will they do?This thousand year period is described as years of desolation, between the resurrection of the righteous during the Messiah's reign and the inauguration of the world-to-come. This refers to the Messianic Reign upon the earth. Tradition divides the history of man into six millenniums and in the following scheme:The First Two Millennium ~ The Chaos Era The Second Two Millennium ~ The Torah Era The Third Two Millennium ~ The Messianic Era The Seventh Millennium is the “Sabbath of the Earth,” the period in which the prophets spoke that features the Rule of Messiah in perfect peace and righteousness. Christian Millennialism Regardless of perspective, the Millennium serves as the centerpiece of eschatological debate and is based upon two passages – Revelation 20:17and 2 Peter 3:8. It is interesting to note that it is only John that records the 1000 year reign and is found seven times in Revelation 20:1-7. It is without parallel except in Jewish Eschatology. |
