Qoute the passage you’re referencing and you will see the answer.


I believe I understand what it means to me, Jesus also said.

Luke 17
20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:

21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

22 And he said unto the disciples, The days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see it.

23 And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after them, nor follow them.

24 For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one part under heaven, shineth unto the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day.

25 But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation

I believe all of this has already come to pass, Jesus was initially rejected but later even the calendar is based on the birth of Jesus.

The Roman empire under Constantine and later the Byzantine Empire, was two of the most powerful kingdoms on earth and they were ruled with Christ as their head.

I am ignorant where history is concerned, and to be honest about every thing else but it seems to me that at least a thousand years have expired for either one of these empires which means to me that the thousand year reign has already come to pass.

I believe the real kingdom of God is within the believers
and the thousand year reign referenced in rev 20 is simply a time period in which Satan was mostly powerless.
