“And Christ set up His Kingdom on earth...”

Well, see, that’s just it: His kingdom is not of this world. He made that clear, too. But that which is His kingdom here on earth is His church, and we are His temple.

And where exactly do you find that in scripture? Hint. It's not there. In Christ's kingdom Satan is bound or in hell. Scripture says Satan is the ruler of this age.

1 John 5:19 We know that we are children of God, and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one.

2 Corinthians 4:4 in whom the god of this age did blind the minds of the unbelieving, that there doth not shine forth to them the enlightening of the good news of the glory of the Christ, who is the image of God;

Yet you claim that Christ's kingdom is the church and that no one in the church is tempted by Satan because in Christ's kingdom Satan is chained and has no power?

Are you living in some fantasy world?
