It is clear that major and minor prophets continually refer to the second coming, the hope of Israel, occurring for the remnant of Israel and thereby all Israel shall be saved Romans 11. The Lord is described specifically as returning to the Mount of Olives( as I write this I’m within walking distance of that very location) where he will set up his Millennial Kingdom to rule and Reign for a thousand years. Now if people want to refer to the Rapture as his prophesied second coming for the Remnant remnant of Israel, so be it. Book chapter and verse available upon request
You’re there? What’s it like?
7 - the number signifying completeness - at the throne of God is the 7 spirits signifying the Holy Spirit (who is complete).
6 - incompleteness - and just as the Bible repeats something thrice for emphasis, so 6 6 6 - the numerical number for Nero, is a repeated incompleteness.
1000 - signifying a very long period. 1000 is taken in other cultures for "a long time" - even in anti-Christian ones like theNazis 1000 year Reich
The 1000 year is also symbolical and perhaps literal in indicating the timeperiod between the establishment of the Davidic Kingdom (traditionally about 1000 BC) and Jesus
Jesus Kingdom will not be of the earth - John 18:36
Jesus answered, “My Kingdom is not of this world. If My Kingdom were of this world, then would My servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews. But now is My Kingdom not from hence.”Incidentally, Rev 20:4 doesn't talk of Jesus reigning on the earth - His Kingdom is not of the world
As I understand scripture, all Christians are the remnant of Israel. For the first 15 years or so the remnant was made up solely of Jewish people. However, we have been “grafted into” this remnant. This is the only true remnant of Israel.
