Mt. 13:24 clearly states that it is a Kingdom of Heaven parable. Mt. 13:24-30 go into detail describing this kingdom.
In Mt 13:37-43 Jesus gives us the interpretation of the parable. Verses 37-41 describe things going on in the Sons kingdom. Tares are being sown and eventually they are being gathered together.
Verses 42-43 describe the end of the Sons kingdom with the tares thrown into a furnace of fire and the sheep entering the Fathers kingdom.
From the Amillenialist perspective, what are these two different kingdoms?

I think amills would say it is (1) The KOG now and (2) The consummation new heavens and new earth.
I don't think they distinguish between the expressions KOH and KOG.

If Satan is in the pit how can HE sow tares?

So much for this verse:
- Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end, upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, to order it and establish it with judgment and justice from that time forward, even forever.
But, really, I do have just one simple question: Do you deny that today we are in the kingdom of God?

Same kingdom; different age.
