Are we in the Millennial Kingdom now?

If you are referring to the "thousand years" of Rev. 20, the answer is yes. Satan is bound from deceiving the nations, and the saints are reigning with Christ.

The term millennial kingdom is a premil/dispensational notion that I prefer not to use since it connotes Jesus sitting on a physical throne in earthly Jerusalem at some indeterminate point in the future.

= = =

Another UTTER FALSEHOOD brought to us by the Replacementarian

1. Rubber Bible;
2. Rubber dictionary;
3. Rubber history book;
4. Rubber logic book;
5. Rubber reality testing
6. Rubber exegesis a la the Alice In Woderland School of Theology.

A) The time is not pe se indtermiate at all. B) Scripture makes clear that at the end of The Great Tribuation comes Armageddon. THEN comes the Millenial Reign of Christ bodily in this time/space dimension on this planet. Only Replacementarian blinders prevent one seeing such obvious UnRubber Bible Scriptural truths.

So Jesus has been working as the God of all creation for two thousand years to make His enemies His footstool...He seems to be having some trouble...Hasn't made any notable progress yet...

How long you s'pose this Millenium is going to last??? 20, 30,000 years??? A million??? Maybe Jesus meant a Millionenium

Now I am one of the saints...But it don't seem I'm reigning over anybody...I'm still having trouble with the dog...Who are you reigning over???

Well he must have either escaped or is out on parole because he is sure having a good time deceiving the Preterists and Amillenialists.

If this is true than you are saying that the Saints have thrones and are able to judge in Heaven.

Rev. 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat on them and judgment was committed to them.

Also, I don't think you should be putting premil and dispensationalism together as though they are one and the same. I don't believe God is done with the Jews and Israel, or that the millennial reign has begun. However, if disepensationalism believes that there are different criteria for justification in different eras I do not believe that.
