J4J, Lets move on to another problem for the premillenial position. The premillenial position has two resurections and judgements; one for the saints before the millenial reign of Christ, and one for the wicked afterwards. The problem is there are plenty of verses that demonatrate they are on the same day. The ressurection: Daniel 12:2, Acts 24:15, John 5:28-29. Also, John 6:39,40,44,54 teaches that the resurection of the saints is on the last day. It can hardly be considered the last day if there is another thousand years after It, and besides in John 12:48 the judgement of the wicked is also on the last day. Also, the saints who die in the millenium, when is their resurection? Lets look at the Judgement. In Mathew 7:22,23, 25:31-46, Romans 2:5-7, Revelation 11:18 all teach the final judgment is for saints and unbelievers. Also 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10 and 2 Peter 3:4-7 seem to teach that judgement of the wicked occurs at Christs second coming. |

J4J, Even dispensationalist concede that the day of the LORD is the second coming. Lets look at another verse that uses the same terminology. 1 Thessalonians 5:1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. 5:2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 5:3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. 5:4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. 5:5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. 5:6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. It is clear from this passage that the day of the Lord is the second coming, for it says ye ARE not in darkness, speaking of their present state at the time, and Verse 6 has the same exhortation to watch for that day like we see else where like Matthew 25:13. Also see Acts 2:20. |

J4J, Christ has already recieved the throne of David in heaven, NOT a throne in Jerusalm for a thousand years. Besides which, the new earth accompanies the second coming of Christ, it is not sepatated by a thousand years. 2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord (his second coming) will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. 3:11 Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, 3:12 Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? 3:13 Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. |

ContinuedAnd not confined to a thousand years. All the verses concerningthe throne of David or the Kingship of Christ (2Sam 7:16, Psa 89:3,4, Isa 9:6,7, Jer 33:20,21, Acts 5:31, 1Pet 3:21,22, Phi 2:9-11, Eph 1:20-23, Mat 28:18) seem to confirm Peters statement that Christ is ruling and reigning from his throne in heaven, and not some earthly reign of Christ. Also: Luke 1:30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God. 1:31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. 1:32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: 1:33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be NO END. How is kingdom but a thousand years if this verse teaches his kingdom has no end? |

All right lets consider the very thing penned is arguing for.Acts 2:29 Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day. 2:30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne; 2:31 He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption. 2:32 This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. 2:33 Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear. 2:34 For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, 2:35 Until I make thy foes thy footstool. 2:36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. This verse is quite clear that the physical throne of David was a type or shadow of the spiritual throne of the greater David (Jesus Christ), and that this throne is everlasting and not confined |

First off, name one doctrine supported by only one verse.Secondly, like I said, you do not make scripture conform to one verse, but take all scripture into account. For example, this literal approach lands you in all kinds of absurdities such as a literal future restoration of all the former historical conditions of Israels life: the great powers of the Old Testament (Egyptians, Assyrians, and Babylonians), and the neighboring nations of Israel (Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, and Philistines) must again appear on the scene (Isa. 11:14, Amos :12, Joel 3:19, Mic. 4:1,2 , Rev. 18). The temple will have to be rebuilt ( Isa. 2:2,3, Mic. 4:1,2, Zech. 14:16-22, Ezek. 40-48) The sons of Zadok will again have to serve as preists, (Ezek. 44:15-41, 48:11-14). And even sin and tresspasses offerings will again be brought to the altar for atonement! (Ezek.42:13, 43:18-27). Not only that, but all the nations would have to come to Jerusalem year to year to celebrate the feast of tabernacles (Zech. 14:16), and week to week to worship Christ (Isa. 66:23). |
