You were saying ...

That's for sure, but the Millenium isn't even the blink of an eye compared to eternity.

In Eternity you could spend ten billion years with every one of the Redeemed, and still have eternity left to do it again ten billion more times, and still have eternity left...

True enough... but I usually like to comment on the Millennial Kingdom here on earth that is going to soon be set up, as that's coming right around the corner -- plus we have a whole lot more information about it, from the Bible, than we do in terms of "eternity"...

At this point, I can "put a handle" on the Millennial Kingdom from the ample descriptions given (in the Bible) -- but it's more difficult for me to put a "tangible handle" on "eternity" ... so I'll wait until after the Millennial Kingdom is completed before I start envisioning eternity.

Besides, during the Millennial Kingdom, here on earth, I'll already have my immortal body, which will give me a greater understanding of what is yet to come (as compared to my understanding right now) -- while those others, who made it through the Tribulation, in their mortal bodies, will be building homes and raising families, still -- just as we do today.

Thus, what you're saying is not wrong, but I just don't concentrate on that aspect of it, while we've still got the Millennial Kingdom, here on earth, still in front of us... if you see what I mean ... :-)

"if you see what I mean"

I do.
I didn't mean to jump over the Millenium, but it is a finite period, with a nasty ending at that.
I'm looking forward to Revelation 21 and eternity with our Redeemer and the Redeemed.
