| Revelation 5:9-10 | 9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; 10 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. | Christians Serving as Kings & PRIESTS who SHALL (FUTURE) reign with Christ on the EARTH |
| Revelation 20:4-5 | 4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. 5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. | Resurrected saints (along with those in fine linen Rev 19: 8, 14 same as Rev 5:10) REIGN with Christ a THOUSAND YEARS. |
| Revelation 20:6 | 6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years. | Christians serving as priests reign with Christ a thousand years |
| Revelation 20:7-9 | Revelation 20 7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, 8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog, and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. 9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.. | After 1000 years those in Holy City ON EARTH are attacked but enemy is destroyed |
| Summary | 100% Scripture from the Book of Revelation.. | Irrefutable 1000 Year Reign of Christ on Earth. Christians serving as priests with Christ for 1000 years ON EARTH. This is the definition of Premillenialism. Anyone who says premillennialism is NOT a valid biblical position is unfair with SCRIPTURE. |
22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. 23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming. 24 Then cometh the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power. 25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet. 26 The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.

Neither do you have 'proof' that 5:10 is speaking of 20:4 and only of 20:4. You're mere 'claim' of 'proof' doesn't cut it. You have to show this is only the case.
Of course, if you notice the fact that, according to John's vision, 20:6 is a future event to John's position in the vision and if you notice the fact that it meshes perfectly with 5:10, you will notice that 5:10 is indeed giving you a glimpse of the ~new~ Earthly reality described in 22:5!
Yup, x, Proof! LOL!
And your 'spin' of 1 Cor 15 is laughable just like your 'discovery' of the "millennial kingdom" in Isaiah 65 and your bastardization of 2 Peter 3.
1 Corinthians 15:24 concludes the resurrection with the ~FACT~ that the ~END~ is next. Not a "millennial kingdom"! The ~END~.
Furthermore, 1 Cor 15 tells us that 'death' will be destroyed at that resurrection, yet your "millennial kingdom" has death occurring thoughtout. This is contradictory. And again, I must point out that your insistance that Isaiah 65 is a description of the "millennial kingdom" (contrary to the explit reference to "The New Heavens and the New Earth") and your insistance that this must be interpreted literally requires us to conclude that ~God's~ people will live only as long as trees and then die. This is contradictory to the claim of Pre-Millennialists that there will be no death of ~God's~ people in the "millennial kingdom".
You really ought to be ashamed of yourself.
