Then there is the question of the number of future resurrections.

Yes, there is question here, but almost no one bothers to actually address the hard part.

For the record, I believe Jesus will come again and sit on a literal throne on earth and reign as a literal king for 1000 years.

The question is this. Will there be birth and death during the millenium reign of Christ? Will there be those who are born during the millenium who are saved? If there are, and they die before the millenium is over, when will they be ressurrected?

I believe there were.
If there are, and they die before the millenium is over, when will they be ressurrected?

When Christ returned they were ushered out of hades to be with Him.

Well, that by definition makes you a 'Millennialist' as opposed to an Amillennialist who believes that we move right into eternity after the Second Advent.

All interesting questions.

Yes, the world will be repopulated with flesh and blood individuals.

You clearly have infants since reference is made to them able to play with dangerous animals (Isa.11:6-8), it says that life will be greatly extended so that a 'child' will die at a 100 (Isa.65:20)(if someone day at the age of 100 he will be considered as dying young).

There are still sins being committed, which are 'covered' in Ezekiel's Temple (Ezek,45)

Those who are born in the Millennial kingdom, will be under a faith plus works system, not just faith and faith alone as we are in the Church age.

Thus, they will not only have to believe but obey or lose their salvation.

God allows a final rebellion to test who are the 'tares' and who are the 'wheat' and then after destroying them, sets up the Great White Throne Judgement for the final judgement.

Those who do not reject God in the Millennial go into the New Heavens and Earth in regular bodies to repopulate the New Earth.

I believe this to be true from Rev. 21-22, where nations still exist and must partake of the 'tree of healing'.

Classical Premillennialists mix-up Rev.21-22 into the Millennial kingdom and eternal kingdom, moving the prophecies regarding 'nations' and the 'tree of healing' into the Millennial kingdom.

This is because Isaiah does that in his prophecies, but that was common in Isaiah since he did the same with the Messianic prophecies.
