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 Son’s kingdom. Tares are being sown and eventually they are being gathered together.

Verses 42-43 describe the end of the Son’s kingdom with the tares thrown into a furnace of fire and the sheep entering the Father’s 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: 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.
