Hi everyone, I've created a new series "1000-Yr Reign Explained || Binding Satan" that follows up on the ideas shared here. I'm open-minded, so please feel free to agree, disagree, or be unsure as we work together to reveal the Biblical narrative. Link: ruclips.net/video/rCh78kSO_4U/видео.htmlsi=rVyWgxyGe3kTdUTZ
My question I have for you if the rapture took place in the first century how are there Christians today who preach the gospel from that time unto us? Cause Paul said we all shall be caught up together.
A Millennium Puzzle to solve… Will Christ be conducting funeral services for mortals killed in accidents 500 years after His Second Coming? The “first resurrection” in Rev. chapter 20 is not the first bodily resurrection in the Book of Revelation, because the two witnesses are resurrected from the dead in chapter 11. There are two different types of resurrection in John chapter 5. There is a spiritual resurrection from the dead in John 5:24, and a bodily resurrection from the dead in John 5:28-29. Does your view of the Millennium agree with what Paul said in 2 Thess. 1:7-10, when Paul said Christ returns in "flaming fire" taking vengeance on those who do not obey the Gospel? The fire comes at the end of Rev. chapter 20. Does your view agree with what Peter said in 2 Peter 3:10-13, when Peter said this earth is going to burn and "dissolve" when He comes as a thief on the day of the Lord? The fire comes at the end of Rev. chapter 20. Does your view agree with what Paul said in 2 Tim. 4:1, when Paul said both the living and the dead will be judged at His appearing? The time of the judgment of the dead, with reward for some and destruction for others is found in Rev. 11:18, right after the 7th trumpet, which is the last trumpet in the Bible. (This verse also proves the Book of Rev. is not in chronological order.) The judgment of the dead is also found at the end of Rev. chapter 20. Does your view agree with what Jesus said in Matt. 25:31-46, where He described the judgment of the sheep and goats, which leaves no mortals alive on the planet at the end of the passage? There are also no mortals left alive on the planet at the end of Rev. chapter 19. Does your view agree with Peter in 2 Pet. 2:4, and Jude in Jude 1:6, when they both said wicked angels are already in chains of darkness? Does your view agree with what John recorded in Rev. 9:1-2, when an angel comes down from heaven with a key to unlock the pit, which means the pit was locked before that time? Are there wicked angels already in the pit in Rev. 9:11? John recorded angels already "bound" in Rev. 9:14. The beast "ascends" out of the pit in Rev. chapter 11, which means the beast was in the pit before that time. Take all of the above and compare it to the symbolic language found in Rev. chapter 20, and the fact the Book of Revelation is not in chronological order, and you will have the truth. ==== Multiple Second Coming Visions in Revelation: (book not in chronological order ) Christ returns one time in the future. However, there are several different visions of His return shown from different perspectives in the Book of Revelation. Christ returns at the end of Revelation chapter 6, with signs in the sun, moon, and stars, as are found in the Olivet Discourse. Those at the end of the chapter are hiding from the wrath of the Lamb. Why would they be hiding if Christ is not present? The "kings", "captains", "might men", "free", and "bond" are also found in chapter 19 at the return of Christ. He returns at the 7th trumpet, which is the last trumpet in the Bible, and the time of the judgment of the dead in Revelation 11:15-18. The beginning of chapter 12 is a history lesson containing the fall of Satan, and the birth and death of Christ, who is the seed promised to crush the head of Satan in Genesis 3:15. The Second Coming is found in the "harvest" of chapter 14, which is related to the parable of the wheat and tares in Matthew chapter 13. He comes as a thief at Armageddon, and we find the greatest earthquake in history in chapter 16. This occurs when the 7th angel pours out his vial. How powerful is an earthquake which moves islands and destroys the mountains? What is happening to the planet? He comes on a horse in chapter 19, right after the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Chapter 20? Does He come with the fire, and the judgment of the dead at the end of chapter 20, which agrees with what Paul said in 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10, and 2 Timothy 4:1? (The time of the judgment of the dead is also found in Revelation 11:18.) There are no mortals left alive on the planet at the end of Matthew 25:31-46. Why does an angel come down from heaven with a key to unlock the bottomless pit in Revelation 9:1-2, if the pit was not already locked before that time? Are there wicked angels in the pit in Rev. 9:11? If the beast "ascends" from the pit in Rev. chapter 11, where was the beast before that time? Does your view agree with Peter in 2 Pet. 2:4, and Jude in Jude 1:6, when they both said wicked angels are already in chains of darkness? Revelation 9:14 proves some of the angels were previously bound in some manner. Because the two witnesses were bodily resurrected from the dead in Revelation 11, the "first resurrection" at the beginning of Revelation 20 is not the first bodily resurrection in the book. The principle of "Recapitulation" means there are multiple visions of His return..
Some apostles were still living after 70 AD, and certainly their own disciples. Why did NO ONE write anything about all prophesies were complete. Even at the beginning of the 2nd century, ALL the Christian writers failed to mention this. If you read their early writings and their testimony about the apostles, not one of them understood Jesus already came, His apocalypse was over, and this is it. Why?
@@AJW-c8i Hyper-Preterism Unmasked: Is Matthew 10:23 about 70 AD, or is it about Jesus coming as the King to Israel? The answer is found below in Zech. 9:9. Did Jesus "cometh" as the King of Israel riding on a donkey during the week He was crucified? If Matthew 10:23 is about 70 AD, Peter ignored the commandment given by Jesus in Matthew 10:5-7, when Peter went to the house of Cornelius. It did not take the disciples forty years to take the Gospel to Israel. In Romans 1:16 Paul said the Gospel was taken "first" to the Jews. This time period of the Gospel going "first" to Israel is found in Matt. 10:5-23, and Acts chapter 2, and Acts 10:36-38, and Galatians 1:14-18. Zec 9:9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass. The Old Covenant age died at Calvary when God ripped the temple veil in half from the top to the bottom at the moment His Son died at Calvary. There is no record in the NT of any person coming to salvation outside of the New Covenant between Calvary and 70 AD. Hebrews 7:12 proves there was a change in the law before 70 AD. We are not come to Mount Sinai in Hebrews 12:18. We are come instead to the New Covenant Church of Mount Zion and the blood of Jesus in Hebrews 12:22-24. This passage was written in the present tense before 70 AD. If the Hyper-Preterists (Full-Preterists) were correct the Old Covenant age would come back into existence if a temple were rebuilt, and animal sacrifices are renewed. Any basic book on Astronomy proves we are not now living in the "eternal" New Heavens and New Earth, because the sun only has a limited amount of nuclear fuel. We now understand the nuclear reaction inside the core of the sun, because of the testing of thermonuclear weapons.
To enter heaven you must become a child again, and know how you act when told not to do something, and your whole world will crumble as you rise up again as Almighty Son of God ❤
Yes I wish that too 😎 I been a full preterist since 2019 it's grown alot. The problem is that within preterism we already have sub beliefs for example hypeperterism which futurist see as full preterism but that's more like IO ( Isreal only) which believes Jesus came picked up some Jews and that's all folks. 😮 Some futurist think we are all Universalist. When they see a preterist that's what they think we are. A lot of belifes fall under the umbrella of preterism
Im a novice myself as only recently come to faith and just debunked dispensationalism as I went after the truth so I’ve ended up coming across your page today as I’m being called to study out preterism in depth as my next theme I found this piece below a while ago on another persons fb page & kept it in mind :- “i have discovered through my research that the doctrine of "Chiliasm" or what is known as the 1000-year millennium is a Jewish rabbinic construct, especially found in the writings of the kabbalists, and was seeded into the church over the centuries to keep up the expectation of this coming earthly utopia in the minds of people of all faiths. It is a very subtle method of control, as Christians keep buying books by the latest dispensational authors, from Hal Lindsay in the 70s, to the Left Behind series of 80s and 90s to all the mainstream ministries (who are controlled) like Mike Evans, J. Cahn, John Hagee...the list goes on and on, yet they have nothing to say, only repeating the same script they have been pushing on the people of God.for centuries. “ COPIED DeAnne Loper.
Thanks for sharing that with me. I believe there's something to that. There's a materialism to selling people on expectations regarding the end times. Self-absorbed people profit off it and show themselves to be devoid of the abundance of the Spirit. Instead of looking into the future, we should reflect inwardly about the presence of the Spirit within us and live in that Heavenly presence. People make the mistake of thinking we are going here and there. It is all here in the present, in some profound sense. We should take some time in the day amongst our various chores and such to rest in the knowledge of Christ's victory and the peace of that Heavenly kingdom and lovely relationship with God
@@Willzyx88I’m noticing the closer I get to the truth of scripture and to the Fathers doctrine as opposed to anything man made, the more at peace I am Becoming which is as you say being present with Christ in the here and now and in connection with Christ rather than this futurist view
The new testament writers using words like " soon " doesnt mean what you assume it must mean. Isaiah and other prophets used words like " soon, at hand quickly " when referring to things far in the future, even isaiah used at hand when talking about the day of the Lord. isaiah 13:6 " Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty. 7 Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man’s heart shall melt: 8 And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames. 9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it. 10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, " So 600-700 years before Jesus, the day of the Lord was still described as AT HAND. That should alone put all of this to bed, but i have more for you. 2 peter 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Written 2-3 years before 70 AD Hes an apostle, he would know when its coming right? So why did he comfort those asking about the coming of the Lord by saying that a day for the Lord is as a 1000 years. Knowing that in just a couple years, the Lord would return. Its going to be 2 days, in 2030-2033. Matthew 24:34, yes, THAT generation, of which the subject of discussion was about. Not the apostles. he even said they would die very early into it. Jesus asked if he would find faith on the earth at his return. Why would he say that, when he knows that pretty much all the apostles will live only 2-3 short of his " coming " in 70AD ? 2-3 is not enough time for suddenly everyone who was preached to fall away, all the churches hat were established to fall away. But 2000 years.... makes more sense doesn't it? Read all of matthew 24 again. The parables about Jesus. Describing that he was going on a long journey. That people would begin to slack and wonder at his coming. 2-3 years without the church fathers isnt enough time for this to occur. Matthew 24, is about the apostles asking Jesus 3 questions. The destruction of the temple, the sign of the son of man coming, and the end of the age. Jesus answered all 3. Matter of fact, he even said that the apostles would die in the beginning, then described the temple being destroyed as they asked, then went into the sign of his coming and then said nobody knows the day of the end of the age, not even angels. 3 questions, 3 answers. That whole conversation wasn't all about 70 AD, that was only the beginning. Now brother, lets see the times were in, end time dreams rampant, we know that revelation was supposed to be the worst time to ever been, and to be. Lets see if we had anything worse then what happened in 70 AD. Nations falling away from Christ, Islam is growing rapidly. Atheism is growing rapidly. Both at their biggest. Christianity is the most mocked religion. Filled with mostly luke warm, deceived christians who just go to mega churchs/prosperity preachers, they go for a show, not for the Lord and thats those who even go to church, imagine if Paul saw this, he probably does from heaven right now.. We had WW1 AND WW2 in the span of the last 100 years. We’re on the brink of WW3 right now. During the world wars 6 MILLION jews got hunted, gassed and burned. Christian’s are getting beheaded in the middle east by muslims. Just because you or me dont see that kind of persecution in our neighborhoods, doesn’t mean it’s not there. Look at China. Theyre changing the bibles, making Jesus, Yeshua a murderer. People there are BLESSED, to have a normal bible and have to fellowship in secret. Hundreds of thousands of abortions per year from the west alone. CLINICS, specifically built for it. People glorifying themselves over it. We’re on the brink of transhumanaterianism with not only AI but the mixing and messing with dna and mixing with technology. First neurolink BRAIN implant happened a month ago, WEF comities which consist of the worlds presidents and the most richest and powerful people saying they can finally “ HACK the human genetic code “ Israel just became a nation again in 1948 after 2400 years of being scattered. Are you saying that the events in 70 AD, supposed revelation ( worst time in human history to ever been or to be ) is worse then black death that wiped out 1/3 of europe in 1300? Or WW2 that had over 12 MILLION casualties. 6 MILLION Jews GASSED. 9 MILLION russians starved by their own leader. NUCLEAR BOMBS, wiping out entire cities off the map. TENS of thousands of casualties in a blink of an eye. Islam growing rampant and took over like a swarm of locusts. Name me a time in history where the CHURCH, US, Have been more divided then TODAY. How many denominations? HOW MANY GOSPELS? HOW MANY VERSIONS OF JESUS? HOW MANY DOCTRINES?! Kids in africa STARVING, kids outside in your city STARVING, CHILDREN being molested and trafficked around the world RIGHT NOW, there is a literal MARKET for it as you read this. Look at the mocking satanism in ALL MEDIA. The Media you CANT ESCAPE, because it’s SO deeply engraved into peoples lives. Movies, shows, music, work, ads, societal norms, trends, and were only heading deeper into it. Until 7 months ago when i was saved and born again i though i was Christian but i didn’t even know who JESUS, YESHUA, was. That’s majority of Christian’s. Christian’s by their family, yet they don’t know what Christianity is, what Jesus truly did for us, that he TRULLY rose again. There is more deception NOW then ever before in human history EVER. Back then you could live in your city and never hear about any other god then what your city believes in. Now?! Hundreds of false religions who all have just enough stolen truth that people can be deceived, all in your palm for easy access via device thats pretty much magic, that you rely on so heavily. Even worse, now it’s normalized to say that there is no God at ALL. That has never ever happened ever in all of humanity. Somebody has always been believed in something, divinity was always recognized. This is a NEW religion of self. Revelation doesn’t only depicts things in Israel, although that’s the centre piece, it also depicts world events. Today the government has the power to freeze your bank account and you’re done. During covid, how EASILY, did…what was it? 85 or 90% of canadian get vaccinated under threat of JUST not being able to go to the store or to work/school? How easily was the world tricked? What’s gonna happen when they threaten our lives alongside not being able to buy or sell? 95% of the world? 99%? How many will fold?! Cmon..you cannot tell me that 70 AD was the worst time in human history. It was awful. Very awful. But let those people see hiroshima, let their eyes watch 140 thousand people get vaporized instantly. Let them see the tzar bomba get dropped that shook the entire earth. Let them see the state of Christianity now, Let PAUL see the churches of today. Yes the deaths might not be as brutal. At least what you see. Again, look to the middle east, all the atrocities are there. But death isn’t the only kind of persecution, hatred and tribulation. You might die the same day that you go and preach on the streets that you’re a Christian in islamic countries in the middle east, and get beheaded out in the desert. Yes the Lord comforted the people of 70 AD. I can’t explain to you why revelation is written to us other then maybe it’s double fulfilment like a lot of other things in the bible seem to be ( but we won’t know until it happens. ) So i don’t know if revelation is about to unfold, or if it’s unfolding and has been for the last 2000 years. But it cannot be finished by logic. Rev 20-22. Not to mention how bad times are now and 90% of what i mentioned is from the last 100 years ALONE. I get it you think we’re asleep thinking that only the Lord can put at end to it. But we’re saying that end is coming now. Israel became a nation in 1948 after 2400 years. We got the technology for mark of the beast. We got the power for one world government, we got the timeline. 2030-2033 is 2000 years since Jesus. 1000 years is like a day for the Lord ( 2 Peter 3:8 ) . 2 days since Jesus, entering 3rd day, 3rd day of resurrection. Hosea 6, ( on the third day we will be in his sight, yes it’s about Jesus but could this be double fulfillment? ) 6000 years since adam in 2030-2033, 3rd day of resurrection and 7th day of rest at the same time. When else in history would this be possible? Never before and never again. Consider this.
@@jennyclairewaite42 I an always willing to listen to opposing views, but I will stress you to stay away from preterism. Because it requires you to "spiritualize" and "allegorize" and "metaphorize" pretty much all of God's powers, deeds, and promises. It starts with having to pretty much turn all of the very literal language about how the end times, and specifically how the new heavens and new earth will be, and how our ressurection will be into pretty much nothing, but pure metaphors, because otherwise pretty much none of that happened. And the irony is they base the interpretation that all of it must have come to pass on an extremely literal interpretation of jesus promising the temple will be destroyed. They say "well the temple was destroyed so that's when all this occured" Riggghht. So that one was literal but everything else was some kind of metaphors, or exaggerated language. It requires you to start cherry picking at which prophecies jesus actually meant would really happen, and which ones were just stand in language for something else that would actually happen without and discernment if that comming from the text itself. It con at the cost of not only doing that to what would be future prophecies, but things that scripture did say already happened. Such as all of genesis. If you don't interpret the new making of heavens and earth to be free from all curse, and sin in a literal way, then what was the world before Adam sinned? Was death, and suffering a part of God's very good creation prior to man ever bringing in sin? If so that doesn't track with the rest of the scriptures at all. And many will say "it wasn't physical death, but spiritual death that was introduced after the fall" . Well that would be a mighty fine answer, except the Bible makes no such distinction in any of the old testimate. And there is really only one place in the new testimate that has anything you could potentially stretch to mean that, it is where there is a warning to not fear man who can only destroy the body, but to fear God also who can destroy both body and soul in hell. But to try to stretch read that into genesis to rework the text to say that it was only spiritual death that was introduced is extremely disingenuous at best. And not only that, there is a prooftext against that from jesus own words as well. If was when some sagasies tried to corner jesus in questioning. They presented the question that since if a man has a wife, and has no kids with her, if he dies, she is to be wed to his brother to keep the lineage going, as per the law of Moses. So they proposed that a man had seven brothers, and they all die in sequence over time, so the wife was wed to each of them at some point, but she never had any kids with any of them, and then she finally dies. They then ask him who's wife she will be in the resurection when all are made alive again. And jesus said to them that in the resurection nobody Marries, or gives in marriage because everyone will be "like unto the angels" and there will be no death" I suppose some might want to latch onto the "like unto angels" part to try to say we are only spiritually resurrected, but that's sort of a shaky thing to so because of the original Greek involved there. The point jesus was making is that after the resurection, the law of Moses that says a woman must marry her husband's brother if he dies without having kids with her will not be a law anymore because in the ressurection everyone is immortal and there is no more death. There's a whole lot more as to why we can go over why preterism is wrong, but this comment is long enough.

Is that what it is all about? Giving you the most peace? Jesus Christ said I came not to bring peace but a sword. Matthew 24 is correlated with Revelation 6. Preterism is false.
thank you for your view point on this topic, the millennial rain is a difficult topic in preterism, but at least its only one mystery. where as futurism has 1000's of problems.
I think there's a VERY obvious explanation for what the Millennium is, but it's almost impossible for Protestants to see due to their hatred of Catholicism. The Devil, the Divider, the Adversary/Satan is imprisoned until around 1054 AD, when the Church experiences its largest, most destructive schism. Fast forward another 1000 years and Christendom is broken again and again, hundreds of times over.
Why is it a problem? Where does it say millennial? It says 1000. Just like beast doesn’t say antichrist. The lord owns the cattle on a 1000 hills. What about the 1001? Or does it say the lord owns the cattle on millennial hill? One day in your court is better than a 1000 else where. What about 1001?
Here's what I think the biggest problem is for this theory: [Rev 20:4-5 ESV] 4 Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom the authority to judge was committed. *Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.* 5 The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended. This is the first resurrection. 1) it clearly says that the martyrs who died in the name of Christ will be resurrected from the dead, and then they will rule for 1000 years. So the 1000 years begins at their resurrection. After the 1000 years ends, there is ANOTHER resurrection of ALL the dead. So essentially you are boiling the 1000 years down to less than a 100. Well did the second resurrection already happen then? Have all these things have happened? Has there already been 2 resurrections? Also, here is how the millennial is described in Isaiah: [Isa 65:20 CSB] 20 "In her, a nursing infant will no longer live only a few days, or an old man not live out his days. Indeed, the one who dies at a hundred years old will be mourned as a young man, and the one who misses a hundred years will be considered cursed. Has this already happened? When on the Earth has it been the case that men dying at the age of 100 were considered dying young? The real truth is if preterisim is true then the only way to reconcile it is to believe Christ already came, he reigned for a literal 1000 years where people could live long enough that they could observe men living far past 100, and now the 1000 years is over, and Satan has been unbound and has altered the history records, changing times and seasons, and now we are in the short season of deception. Im not saying I believe the short season doctrine btw, it's just the only one that truly makes sense if the preterist view is True
One key issue to clarify my perspective is the interpretation and understanding of abstract concepts. I reject the idea that the 1000 years is supposed to be understood as literal - so little of The Revelation is literal with its sea (Israel) and land (Rome) beasts and giant mountain harlots (harlot Israel + Roman authority). And I'd say the same of Isaiah, it's not about living until you're at least 100 nor lions and lambs laying down together. It's usually always qualitative not quantitative. The motif of 1000 is used in the OT a few times: Deut 1:11;7:9; Ps 50:10; 90:4; 105:8; Ecc 6:6; Josh 23:10; Job 9:6, etc. But you've changed my mind on something. First, it's clear to me now that there is no such thing as a 1000-year reign of Christ. It's not a biblical concept. There is no interim reign. Instead, this 1000 years refers to two other categories: i) the dragon and ii) the martyrs. I overlooked this before. That helps me make more sense of the issues. You picked up on some irregularities about the resurrections and timings, and that got me thinking. If the dragon's internment ends in AD64 (I believe this describes Nero's persecution) then the end of that 1000 years cannot be AD70. Rev 20:4, describes the righteous dead: those on thrones whom judgement was committed and the martyrs killed under Nero. I believe they were living and reigning in Paradise Hades, this is the first resurrection: the life of the righteous dead in Paradise ("God is not the God of the dead but the living"). The second resurrection would be experienced ~70AD I saw it best explained here, "There is a first and second death and a first and second resurrection. The first death is the death of the body, physical death. The second death is the eternal destruction of the soul or spirit in Gehenna (cf. II Thess. 1:9, 10 - "Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power, when he shall come to be glorified in his saints"). The first resurrection is the spirit in Hades Paradise; the second resurrection is the receipt of eternal life in heaven. The second coming would mark the time when Hades was destroyed and the soul received its eternal reward. John depicts this in Revelation by the following imagery (Rev. 20:11-15)" Finally, I always come back to Revelation 1:1,4. Whatever it is we are talking about, the context is this: The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants-things *which must shortly take place.* And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John ... John, to the seven churches which are in Asia
we're only now at the very early stages of men dying at the age of 100 being considered dying young. there maybe people living now that by the time they reach 100 it will be considered young. perhaps 100 will be in the new 40 one day not too far away. it seems to me that the 1000 years started when Jesus returned around AD70 as those who were beheaded for their testimony are likely to have died in the run up to AD70. Satan was released for a short time when the 1000 years had finished and wreaked havoc for a short time which could be the second world war (fire came down = blitz, camp of God's people = concentration camps). Israel became a nation again shortly after the second world war seems significant.
@@Willzyx88 The 'sea' is symbolic of Gentiles, not Israel. The 'sea' is the beast (kingdom) of Gentiles - out of the sea of Gentiles. The sea is always symbolic of the nations of the world excluding Israel - 'Peoples, nations, tribes and languages' of the world (Gentiles).
@@Willzyx88Question...isn't the first death spiritual because God said Adam and Eve would die but they died spiritually not physically? This topic confuses me a bit.
The passages for Revelation 20:4 have to be separated. The first is about the Saints that rose with Christ in Matthew 27: Matthew 27 50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. 51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; 52 *_And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,_* 53 *_And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many_* Revelation 20 4 - 1st passage: *_And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them:_* The next passage jumps to those that were slaughtered during the Great Tribulation: Revelation 20 4 passage 2 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 Next, *_the vision goes back to the first thought of the Saints in the 1st passage:_* Revelation 20 4 passage 3 *_and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years._* This is definitely the Saints from the 1st passage and not the persons from the 2nd passage.
Coming in late 3yrs after video was made and don’t know why I’ve never seen this one…very well put, but there is a wrench that keeps getting thrown into all this for me and that’s Rev 5:10 “You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign upon the earth.” Unless all translations are wrong about saying they will rule “UPON the Earth”
There is also "the meek inherit the earth" I feel like all that is left is New Jerusalem coming down from heaven (which we will undoubtedly be told is Thanos or whatever coming to kill us all so everyone unites) and that New Jerusalem is where the saints have been during Satan's season now. That's the camp of the saints that will be surrounded I think. I even hear Truther Christians say it will be a fake alien invasion but New Jerusalem is very real.
And I believe this is what is coming with the city- "The Son of Man will send his angels and they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all law-breakers and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth." Matthew 13:41-42 It won't be hard for Satan to convince people that's the evil that's happening. Even believers will see the fire and destruction and believe evil has visited them because they are so deceived by the Rapture stuff
@@ChristinaFromRUclips Oh my goodness. The rapture is irrelevant. I believe i go through the tribulation. But its YET TO COME. So dont tell me ill be deceived by destruction. Thats what were all looking for. EVEN pre tribbers..
@@ChristinaFromRUclips The new testament writers using words like " soon " doesnt mean what you assume it must mean. Isaiah and other prophets used words like " soon, at hand quickly " when referring to things far in the future, even isaiah used at hand when talking about the day of the Lord. isaiah 13:6 " Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty. 7 Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man’s heart shall melt: 8 And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames. 9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it. 10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, " So 600-700 years before Jesus, the day of the Lord was still described as AT HAND. That should alone put all of this to bed, but i have more for you. 2 peter 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Written 2-3 years before 70 AD Hes an apostle, he would know when its coming right? So why did he comfort those asking about the coming of the Lord by saying that a day for the Lord is as a 1000 years. Knowing that in just a couple years, the Lord would return. Its going to be 2 days, in 2030-2033. Matthew 24:34, yes, THAT generation, of which the subject of discussion was about. Not the apostles. he even said they would die very early into it. Jesus asked if he would find faith on the earth at his return. Why would he say that, when he knows that pretty much all the apostles will live only 2-3 short of his " coming " in 70AD ? 2-3 is not enough time for suddenly everyone who was preached to fall away, all the churches hat were established to fall away. But 2000 years.... makes more sense doesn't it? Read all of matthew 24 again. The parables about Jesus. Describing that he was going on a long journey. That people would begin to slack and wonder at his coming. 2-3 years without the church fathers isnt enough time for this to occur. Matthew 24, is about the apostles asking Jesus 3 questions. The destruction of the temple, the sign of the son of man coming, and the end of the age. Jesus answered all 3. Matter of fact, he even said that the apostles would die in the beginning, then described the temple being destroyed as they asked, then went into the sign of his coming and then said nobody knows the day of the end of the age, not even angels. 3 questions, 3 answers. That whole conversation wasn't all about 70 AD, that was only the beginning. Now brother, lets see the times were in, end time dreams rampant, we know that revelation was supposed to be the worst time to ever been, and to be. Lets see if we had anything worse then what happened in 70 AD. Nations falling away from Christ, Islam is growing rapidly. Atheism is growing rapidly. Both at their biggest. Christianity is the most mocked religion. Filled with mostly luke warm, deceived christians who just go to mega churchs/prosperity preachers, they go for a show, not for the Lord and thats those who even go to church, imagine if Paul saw this, he probably does from heaven right now.. We had WW1 AND WW2 in the span of the last 100 years. We’re on the brink of WW3 right now. During the world wars 6 MILLION jews got hunted, gassed and burned. Christian’s are getting beheaded in the middle east by muslims. Just because you or me dont see that kind of persecution in our neighborhoods, doesn’t mean it’s not there. Look at China. Theyre changing the bibles, making Jesus, Yeshua a murderer. People there are BLESSED, to have a normal bible and have to fellowship in secret. Hundreds of thousands of abortions per year from the west alone. CLINICS, specifically built for it. People glorifying themselves over it. We’re on the brink of transhumanaterianism with not only AI but the mixing and messing with dna and mixing with technology. First neurolink BRAIN implant happened a month ago, WEF comities which consist of the worlds presidents and the most richest and powerful people saying they can finally “ HACK the human genetic code “ Israel just became a nation again in 1948 after 2400 years of being scattered. Are you saying that the events in 70 AD, supposed revelation ( worst time in human history to ever been or to be ) is worse then black death that wiped out 1/3 of europe in 1300? Or WW2 that had over 12 MILLION casualties. 6 MILLION Jews GASSED. 9 MILLION russians starved by their own leader. NUCLEAR BOMBS, wiping out entire cities off the map. TENS of thousands of casualties in a blink of an eye. Islam growing rampant and took over like a swarm of locusts. Name me a time in history where the CHURCH, US, Have been more divided then TODAY. How many denominations? HOW MANY GOSPELS? HOW MANY VERSIONS OF JESUS? HOW MANY DOCTRINES?! Kids in africa STARVING, kids outside in your city STARVING, CHILDREN being molested and trafficked around the world RIGHT NOW, there is a literal MARKET for it as you read this. Look at the mocking satanism in ALL MEDIA. The Media you CANT ESCAPE, because it’s SO deeply engraved into peoples lives. Movies, shows, music, work, ads, societal norms, trends, and were only heading deeper into it. Until 7 months ago when i was saved and born again i though i was Christian but i didn’t even know who JESUS, YESHUA, was. That’s majority of Christian’s. Christian’s by their family, yet they don’t know what Christianity is, what Jesus truly did for us, that he TRULLY rose again. There is more deception NOW then ever before in human history EVER. Back then you could live in your city and never hear about any other god then what your city believes in. Now?! Hundreds of false religions who all have just enough stolen truth that people can be deceived, all in your palm for easy access via device thats pretty much magic, that you rely on so heavily. Even worse, now it’s normalized to say that there is no God at ALL. That has never ever happened ever in all of humanity. Somebody has always been believed in something, divinity was always recognized. This is a NEW religion of self. Revelation doesn’t only depicts things in Israel, although that’s the centre piece, it also depicts world events. Today the government has the power to freeze your bank account and you’re done. During covid, how EASILY, did…what was it? 85 or 90% of canadian get vaccinated under threat of JUST not being able to go to the store or to work/school? How easily was the world tricked? What’s gonna happen when they threaten our lives alongside not being able to buy or sell? 95% of the world? 99%? How many will fold?! Cmon..you cannot tell me that 70 AD was the worst time in human history. It was awful. Very awful. But let those people see hiroshima, let their eyes watch 140 thousand people get vaporized instantly. Let them see the tzar bomba get dropped that shook the entire earth. Let them see the state of Christianity now, Let PAUL see the churches of today. Yes the deaths might not be as brutal. At least what you see. Again, look to the middle east, all the atrocities are there. But death isn’t the only kind of persecution, hatred and tribulation. You might die the same day that you go and preach on the streets that you’re a Christian in islamic countries in the middle east, and get beheaded out in the desert. Yes the Lord comforted the people of 70 AD. I can’t explain to you why revelation is written to us other then maybe it’s double fulfilment like a lot of other things in the bible seem to be ( but we won’t know until it happens. ) So i don’t know if revelation is about to unfold, or if it’s unfolding and has been for the last 2000 years. But it cannot be finished by logic. Rev 20-22. Not to mention how bad times are now and 90% of what i mentioned is from the last 100 years ALONE. I get it you think we’re asleep thinking that only the Lord can put at end to it. But we’re saying that end is coming now. Israel became a nation in 1948 after 2400 years. We got the technology for mark of the beast. We got the power for one world government, we got the timeline. 2030-2033 is 2000 years since Jesus. 1000 years is like a day for the Lord ( 2 Peter 3:8 ) . 2 days since Jesus, entering 3rd day, 3rd day of resurrection. Hosea 6, ( on the third day we will be in his sight, yes it’s about Jesus but could this be double fulfillment? ) 6000 years since adam in 2030-2033, 3rd day of resurrection and 7th day of rest at the same time. When else in history would this be possible? Never before and never again. Consider this.
Impressive that you continue to respond to comments on this 4 year old video. Enjoyed it very much! Would you consider an update? This topic is exploding. Great time to ring in with your more refined innerstanding!
I will do soon. Thanks for the encouragement. I'm moving this week and will set up a wee studio and editing space for a new and more polished series on preterism
Although I may be a year late but made a prayer to God about this topic if He would make it clear to me. Thanks to God for directing me to your video. May God of our Lord Jesus bless you
If Satan was bound for this 1000 year period, how was he able to enter Judas? Luke 22:3 "Then Satan entered Judas, called Iscariot, one of the Twelve." This verse alone puts an end to this theory. Satan was pretty much out there not bound at all. Your prayer remains unanswered.
@jouc12_75 Satan was bound from deceiving the Nations. The Gospel went out to the whole known world according to Paul before 70 ad. We like to add many things to the binding, yet the Word tells us exactly what he was bound from doing.
Here's a list to copy & save! Do you believe in the Bible? Are you SURE?" (Imminence verses) (65-68ad) Rev 1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must SHORTLY COME to PASS; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: Rev 22 10 Then he told me, "Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this scroll, BECAUSE the TIME is NEAR! Matthew 16:28 Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom." "You shall not finish going through the cities of Israel, until the Son of Man comes." (Matt. 10:23) "From now on, you [Caiaphas, the chief priests, the scribes, the elders, the whole Sanhedrin] shall be seeing the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven." (Matt. 26:64 Jesus said "Truly I tell you, this GENERATION will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened."[ Matt 24:24] AD 49 Paul wrote "The fullness of time was come" [Gal 4:4] AD 57 Paul wrote -"Time is short" [1 Cor. 7:29]....."The world in its present form is passing away" [1 Cor. 7:31] AD 58 Paul wrote -"Understand the present time: ...because our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed. The night is nearly over; the day is almost here" [Rom 13:11-12] AD 58 Paul wrote - "The God of peace will SOON (shortly) crush Satan under your feet" [Rom 16:20] AD 60 James wrote - "be patient and stand firm, because the LORD'S COMING is NEAR (at hand)...The judge is standing at the door!" [James 5:8-9] AD 65 The writer of Hebrews wrote - "but in THESE LAST DAYS he (God) has spoken to us by his Son...." [Heb 1:2] AD 65 The writer of Hebrews wrote - "In just a very very little while, ' He who is coming will come and will NOT DELAY....'" [Heb 10:37]; "as you see the DAY approaching" [Heb 10:25] AD 65-67 - Peter wrote "The end of all things is AT HAND." [1 Peter 4:7] AD 65-67 - Peter wrote "For it is time for judgment to begin with the house of God..." [1 Pet. 4:17] AD 67-68 - John wrote "Little children, this IS the last hour... it IS the last hour" [1 John 2:18] In 66.5-70ad (3.5 years) (Luke 21:20) Rome surrounded Jerusalem for God's promised judgment.
These verses are not about an approaching 2nd coming in the first cetury. The full preterists want you to believe the 2nd coming already happened. Don't you believe that for a second. The verses listed are referring to the coming judgement against Jerusalem and Israel as echoed in the 7 woe oracles of Matt.23!!!!! Thats all.
Many of the quotes here are out of context and do not refer to 70AD and the judgement upon Israel. It reminds of the verses which prosperity teachers take out of context and twist to fit their belief. Example 1 Peter 4:17 is concerning trials and tribulations in the flesh of the believers as a form of judgement and which is just as true now in us; better to be judged now as sons who are disciplined than to fall into the judgement of God at the completion of all things.
He was not taking about satan being bound at that point. Jesus was saying that the devil can not cast out the devil. Proving his point that he is not using demonic powers to cast out spirits. You have to read the full text in content to understand that analogy. “And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand. And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house.” Mark 3:24-27 KJV
It's not a question of "this or that" for me. It is both what you are staying and the fact Satan was indeed bound. You speak of fuller context but deny the first century context despite the clear and express intent of Jesus' words, Matthew 10:23; 16:27,28; John 4:21-24; Luke 21:22; then 1 Jn 2:18; 1 Peter 4:7, Hebrews 10:37, which in light of Luke 21:8 would make them all false prophets. And, there's over a hundred such verses which I speak about in my 101 reasons to be a preterist video.
@@Willzyx88 Looks like he got out in Revelation 12, then but was bound in Revleatiion 20 again.) I don't deny that demons WERE clearly being bound, as the demons seemed to fear as much in Luke 8:31) but there are demons still running amok today.
@@littlefoot5013 "Satan" is bound, not demons. The unbelieving Jewish leadership were the "satan." Satan merely means adversary. Anyone can be an adversary. The word "satan" is not a person or being. It can be, but it just means adversary. Who were against the Jesus and his disciples? Read Matt. 23. On those leaders, not anyone in the future.
@@fullpreteristnow yeah, satan does just mean adversary, except it's very rare for it being used I it's noun form to mean anything other than lucifer. Revelation even defines it as such "That old serpent who is the dragon, and satan" If satan gets used In a context where it is basically an adjective at a particular person, or people then you can make a case for it meaning that they are just being called and adversary. But If it isn't explicitly being used that way, and is just a noun standing on its own, then no. You don't just get to apply it to whomever you want.
I just wish someone could tell me what happened from 500AD-1500AD if its literal why is nothing know of the Dark Ages. Maybe the controllers are hiding that.
There is more and more evidence coming to light that the millennial kingdom has already passed and it indeed took place during the "dark ages". If you start researching into Tartaria and looking at all the beautiful and impossible architecture that was built and then systematically destroyed or buried, then followed by falsified history- everything begins to make sense
I have the perspective that there are two events. The first event is Jesus coming in the clouds with a vengeance. The second event is as Jesus describes the resurrection at the last day. All his parables about the kingdom of heaven lead me to believe that there is a last day on this earth. This would be the finality and conclusion of this present age where we enter into eternity I would agree with everything you say for what Jesus speaks about the last day in his parables of the kingdom of heaven. I’m looking forward to a new heaven and new earth.
Christendom along with Scientism have built their cleaverly devised fables on foundations of precepts. All the while misleading the unsuspecting...Thank you for you insights ❤
Just beautiful truth, It makes me wonder how God feels after doing this marvelous work and people not taking the time to see it. I don't think you need to clean the video up. thanks
In Luke 22:3 and John 13:27 it says that 'Satan entered Judas, called Iscariot'; Therefore Satan was still active right up until the trial of JESUS. Therefore I would suggest that Satan was not bound in Matthew 12.
@@T.D.H.Miller-pp6sf ...Yes...I was hoping for one...however, I did watch the video again. I understand Willy's point better. He is suggesting it seems that the 'binding' was symbolic of a fulfillment of time for Christ to complete His work. God bless you all brothers & sisters!
@@ajw9377 ...Thanks for the reply. I did watch the video again and I understand Willy's point better this time. That said, our faith & love (as You mentioned) are far more important. Thanks to Willy and all brothers & sisters! Grace & Peace.
Judias wasn’t an Israelite, but an Edomite Jew that’s why he was the betrayer. Just like the Jews of today are not Israelites and hate Jesus. Israelites were a minority in that time most of the people were mixed and of the people God commanded the Israelites to destroy in Joshua. That’s why In John 8 Jesus says they are of their father the devil. Not his sheep.
Learning about the way the ANE used numbers is so interesting. I think the long ages in Genesis are also qualitative rather than quantitative (as is used with the ages for kings in that time and culture). It’s interesting that the first Adam was said to live 930 years… just shy of the ideal “thousand.” And I believe the second Adam’s 70 years (~from birth to return), is a beautiful picture of redemption and completion to bring eternal life.
Greetings Willy...thanks for the great video. A few years ago, I decided to dig in and settle the eschatological issue and found myself a full preterist. Coming from a pre-millennial position, I had to review almost every aspect of my Christian faith because the great amount of error I had received. It was a great challenge, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was almost like getting saved again, because a veil was lifted from my faith and my bible. I think the biggest mistake that people make on the more difficult subjects in eschatology is to build intellectual ideologies, creating dogma that can be found no where is scripture. This only ads to the confusion. If the "millennium" wasn't mentioned in John's Revelation, we could see the finished work of Christ more easily. He came and completed "all that was written," (Luke 21:22) fulfilling the work the Father sent Him to do. Everything points to that completion. On he things that appear more difficult, I try to avoid being dogmatic. There is one thing that I read regarding the millennium that did seem to bear some consideration. The writer noted that the martyrs that who "died" were resurrected and "they came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years."(Revelation 20:4) So, said the writer, they were possibly NOT ON EARTH, BUT WERE IN HEAVEN. I have heard of people who had been caught up into heaven for a short period of time and when they were asked what it was like, some of them said that they were there a long time in some cases,, a very long time. The martyrs could have lived in heavens's time line for a thousand years because they were in heaven. On earth, however, the time was a duration of only forty years. What I am suggesting here is the possibility of dual time lines. Again, this is only conjecture, because scripture does not comment on the millennium. Thanks again and God bless.
Thank you for sharing. I totally know what you're describing concerning the amazing clarity of our understanding being like a rebirth almost. It's an ever more highly resolving truth. You're so right about the stifling effect dogma has. We construct theoretical frameworks along the path to wisdom that serve only as obstacles. We have been blessed with this realisation and I hope the message of a present vibrant kingdom of God grows and inspires us to be our best selves. Appreciate you checking out the vid! All the best.
The amazing thing is that we are made in the image of the living God! and we NOW have access to our Father and as we behold Him we are changed into His likeness from glory to glory!
@@davidwoods6015 Don't be sorry....I am fine. I do feel sorry for you though. Still waiting for the "imminent second coming," like many thousands over the last two millennia. I have known many of them for years...they are so sad and confused...and fearful. Ponder: "For the Son of Man is ABOUT TO COME in the GLORY OF HIS FATHER WITH HIS ANGELS, and then he will reward each one according to his deeds. I ASSURE YOU THERE ARE SOME HERE WHO "WILL NOT DIE" UNTIL THEY SEE THE SON OF MAN COME AS KING.” Matt. 16:27,28. Truly, truly..I tell YOU David...Yeshua kept His word to those within His hearing and some of them would still be alive when this occurred! To the Jews who "were alive" when the letter to the Hebrews was written we read these words: "Christ was OFFERED ONCE to bear the sins of many; and He will APPEAR A SECOND TIME, not to bear sin, but to BRING SALVATION to those who eagerly await Him.…" "For yet a little and A VERY LITTLE WHILE, and HE THAT IS TO COME, WILL COME, AND WILL NOT DELAY." Heb. 10:37 A "very little while" is two millennia?!! If so then you have a problem friend...NO SALVATION! The Hebrews were told to expect a "second coming" that "brings salvation" in THEIR LIFE TIME!
@@davidwoods6015 Good morning, I can and do agree the 2nd coming is still future, however, would you be willing to see in scripture that the 2nd coming is also now? What I'm saying is like this Jesus IS Salvation correct? So, when did you receive his Salvation? When did Paul? And when will those yet to believe or be born receive their salvation? What I'm suggesting is that you consider the "2nd coming" as a linear timeless event. His coming is always Now to whomsoever will believe. Can you grasp the biblical concept that teaches us that we must FIRST BELIEVE, Then RECEIVE. Until you believe the words of Jesus (that I will show you) you cannot "see" or experience His 2nd Coming, whether or not it's future. What I'm saying is, you are "waiting" for a future physical outward coming of Jesus when you have not FIRST had a spiritual inward Revelation of His appearing. Read, consider, think about & prayerfully ask him what is meant by these statements: Hebrews 9:28 John 14:17, 20, 21, 23 2 Timothy 1:10 Revelation 3:20 My friend, I hope you will earnestly drink in these scriptures, not looking for a way to defend an ideology or reason them away, but consider that Jesus has come (past), is come (now) & will come forever (future). Revelation 1:8 World without end Eph 3:21 Remember too that the Kingdom of God is by Faith (not sight). Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday and to day and for ever. Peace & Blessings 2 Timothy 1:10
It's like he's on the right track then veers off onto another track. Tartaria the Millennial Kingdom of Jesus Christ #satanslittleseason #revelation20.7 Satan deceives the whole world.
Yes, the 40 year period before the destruction of the City and temple in AD70 is the millennium. The 1000 years is of course symbolic. The book of Revelation is all about symbols. The entire book has been fulfilled. Don Preston recently did a debate about this subject.
The entire book is not about symbols. SOME of revelation I symbolic, and the rest of it isn't. There's a very cool way to tell the difference. Everything that is a symbol revelation explicitly explains is a symbol. So if it mentions something, and doesn't explicitly explain it as a symbol, then you know it isn't a symbol.
Luke 21:22 is the hinge scripture for me, Christ speaking of the coming destruction of Jerusalem in 70AD said "these are the days of vengeance when ALL THAT IS WRITTEN will be fulfilled"
I can see why you get intense with your messages. Not necessarily for this video. I have been watching videos against preterism… Jesus has opened my eyes. He is awesome! There arguments just suck. They literally are ignoring scripture. I sent the idea to people who claim to believe, with scripture, they didn’t even bother to look into it. Thank you for trusting in the Word, and then sharing it. Jesus is King!
Yes I believe full pretrrism is the correct eschatology that is fulfilled eschatology. I didn't want to be a full preterist but can't help beliving something that keeps coming up as truth. Glad to see it's apparently growing. 😊
I felt that too. Too many churches and expressions of Christianity hold your desire for truth hostage through shame, smears, and cancelling anyone who questions their dogmas. Their doctrines basically serve to measure heresy instead of actually caring about people and their relationships with God.
@@Willzyx88 Honestly I think the eschatology of futurist could indeed bring the destruction or near destruction of the world. Not only are you right about the churches/ministers but of course the people are effected or infected as well. Concider this, how does Voodoo /Hoodoo superstitions and witchcraft work? (I know this seems irrelative but it is ) Thoughts and beliefs produce actions even on a subconscious level. They foam at the mouth at the idea of rebuilding the temple the Christains seem to support Isreal the Jews good guys and the Muslims are the evil bad guys .they get excited with every disaster especially involving Isreal. All this destruction is a joyful indication the lord is coming back. People act as they believe so they wait in expectation for the antichrist the temple and WW3 to break out. Well their prophesies might come true because they make them come true. 🤔 PS The mind see's what it wants to see .
*Historicism is biblical* Declaring *the end from the beginning* and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: {Isaiah 46:10} “Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;” {Revelation 1:19} Prophetic continuance is histrorisim.
Agreed. Preterism requires that you "symbolize" all of God's promises into oblivion, because if they meant anything besides pure symbolism then it becomes clear as day preterism is wrong.
@@ophiuchus9071 let me just put it to you this way. Jesus didn't ask people to believe off of nothing. He literally healed people, he literally did miracles to prove he was who he said he was. Most important of all of those is the literally paid for all sin, and proved it b literally raising from the dead. And any time he spoke, or taught in parables he mentioned it explicitly. But yeah. Sure the faith is all about " the spirit guiding you, and I you can't understand these things, then obviousky his spirit isn't upon you" Just like the OP said, symbolizing everything is just a wat for you to make the scripture comport to whatever you want it to.
Very good , i think because life is very hard the futurist view gives people hope they have this hope because of the fear they live in . But at the end of the day our time is out of our hands but our hope is in christ and our faitheads us back to christ it is our LOVE that demonstrates us walking with christ in this life and the one to come . Living without fear
Good question. I'll answer it according to my understanding but let me pose you a question first: what if Satan wasn't bound? If Satan, the father of lies, was not bound then it might be that the gospel message wouldn't have been as effective as it was. Paul was hindered but he wasn't shut up and made throughly unconvincing to his audiences. Instead, Paul had divine power and his audiences recognised truth. I'll answer your question now. Jesus said that he cast out demons by the power of God and in this context describes how you'd first bind a strongman before plundering his house. Jesus here appears to suggest that the strength of Satan's influence was weakened in some way that afforded him and the disciples dominion. There's two more points I'll make: firstly Satan means adversary, accuser, or hostile opponent. So any hindering force would come under the umbrella of Satan. It could be part of the common parlance of the time. Secondly, you'll notice Satan was bound but he wasn't gagged. So, while restricted, a bound Satan is not a defeated Satan and perhaps retained a measure of seduction
Anyone watching this from anywhere in mid uk area? I’m just craving fellowship yet know of not a single meeting for us Preterists in England and I’ve been loooking for 5 years!
I know the feeling! I think we need to start our own somehow. My issue in Scotland is the scarcity of Christians and a seeming lack of interest in such topics. Maybe I need to move into a city to find a more vibrant community of curious believers.
Well done, brother. I really appreciate the passion! I would suggest that the 'little while' the martyred saints are told to wait (Rev. 6) is until the 1st resurrection of Rev. 20. If John is receiving and writing Revelation around 68-70AD then it is only a year or so until the martyrs are resurrected at Christ's coming in 70AD (they are not waiting through the 1000 year reign). A very little while. Regarding the 1000 year reign; I realize this video is 4 years old now and you may have different thoughts now, but I would highly recommend you do a thorough study of the prophets. I've recently come to understand that the 1000 year reign and little while of satan's release are described extensively through the prophets, but the modern church has largely been taught to totally ignore it and/or attribute it to past events with ancient Israel. But Ezekiel 38, 39 clearly describes the same Gog/Magog event of Rev. 20, which happens AFTER the 1000 years. So Ezek. 38, 39 and Micah 4 are great places to start. Also Isaiah 2, 11 and 65. Psalm 2, Ezekiel 20, Amos, Zechariah, the end of Zephaniah - all of these and more describe the 1000 year reign when Christ is physically located and enthroned on the holy mountain, when the nations come up to where He is to pay homage and to learn the ways of righteousness and to celebrate the feast of tabernacles (Zech. 14). And they describe the little while of satan's release, culminating in the nations surrounding the camp of the saints, the fire reigning down from Heaven to destroy them, and then a final ingathering of the remnants of Israel who had been blended amongst the nations, from whom God had hid his face (Ezek. 39:29) I have recently come to the conviction that we are in the little while of satan's release and have been living in the time when God has hidden His face from us, but when the little while culminates in the Gog/Magog event, we who know His voice (we are the dispersed remnant of the house of Israel), will remember and be called out (the greater exodus of Ezek. 20:36 and elsewhere) of the nations into the camp of the saints. I believe the 1000 year reign was a literal 1000 years (called the 'dark ages' by the present powers) that has been scrubbed from historical memory. The prophets are key to seeing this literal period, when the resurrected and glorified saints ruled the nations with Christ Himself ruling out of Mt. Zion. The Lord bless you and keep you and make His face the shine upon you! Peace.
@@larrybedouin2921 But do you agree that Rev. 20 clearly separates the resurrection into two events divided by a period of time referred to as 'the thousand years'?
@@greglawrence9230 Yes, when satan is bound for a thousand years. These are not literal chains that bind him, but rather chains of circumstance, for there will be no man on earth to temp and deceive for those thousand years, and then there will be the great white throne judgment of the wicked after the second resurrection of damnation. And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto *the resurrection of life* and they that have done evil, unto *the resurrection of damnation* {John 5:29} And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, *both* of *the just and unjust* {Acts 24:15} But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished *This is the first resurrection* 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. {Revelation 20:5-6} And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and ("""a thousand years""") some to shame and everlasting contempt. {Daniel 12:2} And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. *This is the second death* {Revelation 20:14}
@@larrybedouin2921 Where do you get the notion that no one will be on the Earth for a thousand years? Rev. 20:1-3 seems pretty clear that satan is bound in a specific location (bottomless pit, aka Tartarus) and his movement to that location is the reason for which he cannot deceive the nations; And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. 2And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, 3And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.
@@greglawrence9230 “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but *my words* shall not pass away.” {Matthew 25:35} Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. {2 Peter 3:12-13} And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: *for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away* and there was no more sea. {Revelation 21:1} I beheld, and, lo, there was *no man* and all the birds of the heavens were fled.

Bad is bad. Good is good. God can work with that. It doesn't matter if there are malevolent schemes being done by Satan or a Walmart employee called Jack Jackington, if we pray against the obviously bad things God knows who is responsible. It's not like we get extra credit for assigning wickedness to Satan. It's not Cluedo. All evil is evil is Satanic, all good is good is of God.
"The Son of God was manifested that He would destroy the works of the devil". I John 3:8 (did Jesus fail in His mission...?) "And, the God of Peace will crush satan under your feet, shortly". Romans 16:20 (written two-thousand yrs. ago) HELLO ? The devil is a defeated foe, so weak, puny, clawless and toothless that he FLEES when we simply resist him, James 4:7 Why do you continue to make an argument for the Historical insignificance and cultural impotence of Christ's work at Calvary...? SHAME !
Satan was given his authority and is "bound" to do only so much. In Rev 20 he is released from his "bound" state and goes out to deceive the nations. Clearly Satan influences humans today, but in the last few years/decades, Satan has inflamed every nation to persecution of the saints (the new Jerusalem) to a degree never seen before. So next up is his total destruction by God himself.
When a martyr is at rest, it’s a similar euphemism as being asleep. They were to rest (remain in hades, asleep, dead) a little while longer before their resurrection (first resurrection) to reign with Christ during the millennium. This avenging of justice was swift in its coming…70 AD was the end of the Jewish age.
Also worth noting is the crowns given to the martyrs. (Revelation 20) Crowns are indicative of ruling. Interesting how the Apostle Paul knew he’d be part of the all-inclusive 2nd resurrection; but wasn’t sure if he’d be part of the first one (reserved for the martyrs) until writing to Timothy at the end of his life that he’d finished his course and would receive the CROWN of righteousness. Php 3:10 & 11 “That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; If by any means I MIGHT attain unto the resurrection of the dead.” VS 2 Timothy 4:6-9 “For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing. Do thy diligence to come shortly unto me:” Note in Revelation 20:4 the millennium reign takes place BEFORE Satan is loosed. “And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be FULFILLED: and AFTER that he must be loosed a little season.”
@@Mike-qt7jp 30th August 70 AD. That's when it happened. The next question is how it happened. Jesus told us he would come with his kingdom. Jesus told us this would not be visible to human eyes. It does not come with observation that you will say "look here" or "there is it!". The kingdom is within. It is within that resurrection takes place. Within doesn't mean in the thorax either. It's a metaphysical condition of restored relationship with God.
One thing for sure, only those who didn’t take the mark during the great tribulation get to reign with him for that 1000 year period. Bible is very clear on that.
No it's not. *The SIGN 👈 of Jesus' coming* per Him was the *destruction of the 2nd Temple* the *disciples were LOOKING AT* 👀 and asking about. Matthew 24:1-3 *_Is there a stone left on another of it TODAY???_* 🤔 No. Bc it's ancient history. 😊 *Jesus can't come TODAY or IN THE FUTURE 👈 to destroy it* bc it no longer even exists. *God bless you on your journey* ❤ 
As a Sassenach I was raised in the knowledge that the principal difference between a Scotsman and an Irishman is that when the Romans invaded the Scots could run but the Irish could swim. That said, although I was conceived in England I was born in Amman, Jordan. After serving Her Majesty for 12 years I fled (swam and ran) to the Pacific North West where I have lived for the past 37 years and, much to my surprise, raised five Yanks. Thanks for this touch of, ‘Scottish Common Sense Realism’. You’re a canny bunch alright, and that bit of wild Irish poet ‘gets’ Hebraic symbolism. Thankfully, I believe we are in a “new heaven and a new earth” so all of this nationalistic representation is swallowed up in the Oneness of the Father and Son without jealousy or defensiveness. Now, by the grace of God we walk in the realization and can enjoy the multifarious uniqueness of unity, but not uniformity, found in His expression through us, those who are made in God’s image. In closing, though I have yet to stray north of Hadrian’s wall, I was christened with the names of Kenneth and Charles by a father who was born in Calcutta, India, and a mother born in Manchester and raised in Fleetwood. I am married to a lady whose grandfather was a Brady, a dirt poor immigrant onion farmer who escaped from Indiana during the depression. This dispersion thing has gotten out of hand! We are one my friend, your teaching was a breath of fresh air, hard-headed, fearless, and, under it all, good-natured, liberating, and kind. Thanks mate. The whole world’s gang awry, except for thee and me, and I’m not so sure about thee. Nevertheless, I subscribed. Peace.
Quite the international man of mystery! Sounds like you've been having quite the adventurous time of it. I'm so glad you've found the time to lend your mind to these sorts of subjects. I'm quite fortunate to have stumbled into these matters myself. Being online does open up the world a bit. That said, so does travelling. I flew out to Florida twice last year, and near settled down with an American lass. I really enjoyed my time in the USA. I'm sure your five will enjoy the American experience and the gift of a cultured Dad! Thanks again for checking out the content. By all means comment as you wish. Think out loud. All opinions are welcome. Looking forward to hearing more of your thoughts.
Hi Willy T, I had just posted to one of your earlier videos when I saw that you had already very kindly responded to it. I look forward to hearing what you have to share on the subject, and thanks for sharing about your travels. Now, back to my ‘Willy T marathon’.
They understand Hebraic concepts because they're of the 10 "Lost" Tribes of Israel. The Celts were "Hibiri" which is Hebrew. That's part of their grand deception that they teach us that we are "just Gentiles" when the Tribe of Dan is directly Israel.
This notion has been around on utube for quite sometime. Utube never recommended it to me. It makes perfect sense. Soon means soon. Jesus didnt offer a generation a false hope just to give it to another future generation 2000 years in the future. A lot of my positions gained over the years are now lost. As frustrating as that is. Its better to let them go and align myself correctly. Soon means soon.
That's what I went through as well. You think "ahhhh... really?!". It's disappointing that this wasn't discussed sooner but this is the information age. People were illiterate for thousands or years and now we are communicating like never before. We are blessed though. Blessed with a desire for truth regardless of where it leads us. Thankfully, it often correlates with good things. I think that's by design.
This sounds right. I feel like I should suggest something, though. A lot of people in the USA (and elsewhere) are getting Rapture dreams. I myself have had some dreams resembling a Rapture event, but other times are skewed toward an Ezekiel/Jeremiah/Lamentations-style of judgment period upon many countries. I would be remiss to dismiss these dreams of mine and others. Perhaps GOD simply gives us dreams with imagery that we understand, even though it's not completely accurate. But, I do believe something has been in the works, is building up, and GOD has been warning His people. Have you noticed anything of this sort? May GOD bless you and your family, in Jesus's name.
I think you've come to a very sound conclusion. It's not completely outlandish to imagine that America might erupted into disorder in some places and to varying degrees. Always good to be prepared. I've heard a couple of people share the belief that some kind of civil war will take place in Americas future. It won't last too long and people will ultimately reunite. But, who knows? It is only a possibility. There is a bit of a culture of end times rapture predictions in certain American circles, so that could explain some of it: the ideas expressing themselves in the subconscious mind. I will think about it more tho
@@Willzyx88 - OK. A thing I should add is that I was a staunch atheist for over 20 years, until February 2019 when I had an audible experience. I kind of believed as a kid, but I was raised by a family that mostly went to church as a matter of social norm. The church I went to did not preach Rapture. In fact, it's one of those very liberal churches that made a point to have a lesbian be its "presiding bishop." (I don't hate homosexuals, nor am I opposed to women in ministry. I'm just saying the motivation my former church had was about making modern statements, not focussing on Christ.) So, I didn't have any preconception about this stuff before my audible experience. One of the things He said to me was, "Something bad is coming." Among other things, I was drawn to read those chapters in Ezekiel for clarification (namely chapter 38). I think it's more than just civil unrest, although I do live in Minnesota (where the high profile police shooting trial just took place and another is about to happen). Meanwhile, the USA has had an uptick in earthquakes and might be forced into three different wars shortly: Russia/Ukraine, China/neighbors, and Israel/Iran. Honestly, I think we're going to be nuked, and I think I'm going to go with it...
The very first page of the KJV tells it all really.... Not Genesis 1:1... But The Epistle Dedicatory!!! I never anyone talk about it? First hand account of Jesus coming in the clouds... Any thoughts guys??
I'm so glad you wrote this. I'm sure that when I read it in the past, I thought that "Your Majesty" was King James. I thought it was quite terrible that they seemed to worship him. But, when I read it as you have read it, it is completely different and makes a lot more sense indeed! Two weeks have gone by since you posted and it makes me sad that I am the only one to look at what your talking about and respond. I would love to discuss this and maybe I'll bring it up at my next meeting. It is definitely something everyone should at least consider.
Willy, Doesn’t Satan enter Judas the evening before the crucifixion? Didn’t Jesus tell Peter that Satan wanted to sift him as wheat? Bound? Just sayin’.
Satan was said to be bound in regards to deceiving the nations. Here is the verse : Revelation 20 : 2 - 3 "He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, *to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended.* After that, he must be set free for a short time." So during the thousand years the apostles preached the gospel to all the nations. Here are some verses that support this : Colossians 1 : 6 " . . . In the same way, the gospel is bearing fruit and growing throughout the whole world . . ." Colossians 1 : 23 " . . . This is the gospel that you heard and that has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven, . . . " Romans 1 : 8 "First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being reported all over the world." Romans 10 : 17 - 18 "Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ. But I ask: Did they not hear? Of course they did: “Their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.” When the apostles were obeying the command of Jesus to make disciples of all the nations Jesus made sure the devil would not be able to deceive the nations in order for the efforts of the apostles to be successful.
In Revelation 20, should we take one thousand years literal?, the answer is no. The other books in the Bible has it not being literal. We need to read scripture in the light of scripture. Psalm 50:10 For every beast of the forest is mine, And the cattle upon a thousand hills. Does God own the cows on a 1000 hills only? Dose he not own the cows in the valley too? Deuteronomy 5:10 -but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments. Dose this mean that the 1001st generation will not be loved by God? The answer is no. Psalm 105:8- He remembers his covenant forever, the promise he made, for a thousand generations. Does this mean the 1001st generation are cut off? The answer is no. Thousand means a number that no one can count.
Have you ever tried to fit what you’re saying into the Enochian timeline as laid out beginning in Enoch chapter 93? I’m pretty well convinced that Revelation has pretty much taken place but I believe the enemy is trying to convince believers that we are going into that time now. I asked myself what advantage is this to the enemy and I believe it’s so that people don’t fight back against the evil of our time and we don’t pray against satanic elements of our age because we think it’s scripture and it just has to be this way. I think of Daniel chapter 7 verse 18 and verses 21+22 where it seems to indicate that the saints are standing up to the beasts where as Jesus, in his time told his people,” if they persecute you in one city flee to the next, you shall not have gone over the cities of Judaea before the Son of Man be come”. Also, the book of Esdras says that Jesus reign is 400 years. There’s much to be factored in from the apocryphal books and I believe that’s why they’ve been rediscovered. You might be interested in Ken Johnson’s work on the Dead Sea scrolls if you haven’t already checked it out.
I have tried to fit events into that Enochian timeline but that was before I came to understand Preterism. Would be cool looking through it again. As I read your comment, I wonder if the terms we are comfortable speaking in would have zero currency in the world of today. Paul used the poems and icons in his midsts to communicate ideas. I think this explains the resonance of Jordan Peterson. He uses some archaic concepts but also some modern ones and brings them together so well.
Hi Willy. I like your enthusiasm for the Truth of Preterism. Here is a idea I'd like to run by you. It develops your idea of 40 years = total 1000, to 40 years as COMPLETION of the 1000 years from 960BC when the temple institution (combining Law & Covenant. 1Kings8.1-13) was inaugurated. Briefly in terms of explanatory power it synthesises: 1. Mosaic Law and the Covenant In and With the temple institution 2. Jesus' gave His prophecy of the temple standing in front of the institution begun in the tenth-century BC. 3. From the time of His [prophecy to its fulfillment was 40 years added to 960 = 1000 years. 4. It resolves the ending of 'present' (Greek nun...now, not past or future, the immediate present.' Thayer) heavens & earth 2Pet.7 with 'present' (Greek nun...now, not past or future, the immediate present.' Thayer) Jerusalem. Gal4.24-25 5. Jerusalem as the place of blessing and cursing, (Paradise and Hades) Jerusalem as 'the Gates of Hades.' (Curse of Law in temple, Promise of redemption in Jerusalem. Lk2.38) 6. 1000 years from 960BC lends itself to generalisation:- A. From construction in the C.10th BC to its destruction in the C.1st the temple institution stood for 1000 years. B. The blood of all generations from Abel were to come on that generation. Mtt12.39-42; 23.35-36; Lk21.20-33; 24.44; Acts3.18-24. C. Abraham, who was promised a city with foundations, (Heb11.8) received that city (New Jerusalem) when the 'present' heavens and earth passed away with the temple in 70AD. D. All of prophecy was fulfilled in that generation when jesus returned to the temple in clouds with the 'keys of Hades.' Rev1.18; 20.13-14 E. The 40 year [a-millennium] was the period the completed the TOTAL 1000 year existence of the temple. Anyway this merely develops your idea by adding more information to it.

@@MorrisonLee-wt2jp Very impressive observations. I'm very thankful for this wonderful insight. I'll definitely be mulling this over for the next couple of day.
You can have all your theories figured out, but the reality still is that Jesus is standing at the door, ready to take His bride, and some will not be ready, actually most.
Jesus said he’d be back in the 1st century. Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. Mathew 24:34-35
According to my knowledge the Bible does not say that Jesus said satan is bound during Jesus's time on earth. It makes no sense. Why was He crucified if there was no evil on earth. I respect your opinion but to me it does not make sense. I tend to believe that we might be in satan's little season now.
Different perspectives. I don't think evil and Satan are inextricably linked. I think Satan can be out of the picture and humanity would still do evil. James described sin without any mention of Satan James 1:14-15: "But each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death." The death being separation from God, not physical. That's why Jesus was crucified. It wasn't because Satan desired it and made it happen. That's impossible. It only happened because God permitted the depravity of humanity to fulfill prophecy and symbolise something transcendental for all ages. Also, just because Satan was bound didn't mean that adversarial spirit had zero influence. While my belief is that Satan was destroyed, I don't think that means there is no evil today or evil spirits. Their could be. Its really beyond our understanding but what I do know is that God loves us and has already established our collective reconciliation
@@Willzyx88 I hear what you are saying. That there is evil in people due to desires. But I still think that satan is ruling on earth. Why would all the celebrities show signs like 666 or horns? These signs show respect to satan. So do these people not know he is dead or do they show respect even though they know he is destroyed by God?
@johannbellingan1092 I don't know what to make of celebrities. A lot of them appear to be involved in evil antics involving abuse. Perhaps they do ritualise some kind of satanic worldly worship. I suspect Satan is like a hydra. You cut off one head and another can grow. So while authority is fully in God's hands now with Satan defeated, humanity can still consort with evil.
Christ was King Arthur, all greats are cover ups for his deeds, brothers. It was an earthly Kingdom.We have been decived about the Chronolgy and canon of History. The archelological evidence for destruction of Rome is not found overlaping on top of eachother vertically, it's found horizontally, meaning next to eachother at the same level all covered by the same black dirt. Something of great magnitude happened at the same time, even within the same hour. pray on this. Search Proffesors Gunnar's 2016 talk. Even the secular Proffesor drops more truths than he think. The "DarkAges" was the 1000 year Reign, physically. Ghengis Khan meaning King of Kings also known as the Man of The "millenium". Was another cover up for his Reign. Search the truth. Contemporary "hisotrian" are just as clueless and throwing guesses just like evolutionary scientists, and Big bang theorists. Answer lays in the North.
You can't just pronounce "conspiracy" without offer a legitimate reason for the existence of such a conspiracy. Why would anyone construct it, how would they maintain it, and how exactly does that influence our affairs? I think you'll find that there is no tangible reason for this conspracy: there is no economic or social value to it - which tends to be the main influence in the action of elites. This just reminds me of the musing from someone suffering delusions. It makes zero sense to suggest Jesus was King Arthur, historians would not only be wrong but archetologist, geneologists, etc. It is worth ensuring you do not have mental illness.
@@Willzyx88 I'l gladly go into the logistics of it, but first I'd like to make clear that everything is up for debate, This may very well be wrong. You have to be able to think critically, you clearly can understand objective truth, as you have concluded that indeed The tribulation of the 2nd coming occurred in our past, but John's future. You already understand this, so there is no sense on discussing when, but instead what. You ask about 1. who would construct this, 2. how they would maintain it? and 3. how exactly does it influence our affairs. 1 Corinthians 3:18 First you need separate your current held beliefs put them aside, as well as your emotions in order to search for objective truth, which is the only thing that matters, because objective implies it affects all of us. Only through this will you be able to validate your emotions, and act in the inherent value you have. Do you belive that there is good and evil. if you say no then this whole explanation is already not going to do anything for you, until you contemplate that. 1. it is simple to understand, but becomes difficult when one has one foot in the world and another in the objective truth of God, which can be concluded with honest logical argumentation. A simple example to this is; Murder is wrong, why, Because the one enacting/attempting Murder is terminating with malicious intent that which God intended to continue until God's appointed desired time to recall His creation. but it was intersected or planned to be intersected by the subject intending to or preforming the act of Murder. You realize I say God's" because Being God's (belonging to God) is the only thing that gives Human life, Animal life and all forms of life Inherent value, which dictates that all are to be held at a certain standards, set by God, acknowledged by His Subjects, You and I. To say that life has value without God is purely emotional and has nothing to back it up rendering it a worthless thing to say. The only value emotions have is made valid because they are given by God and are intrinsic to God, and make whole the experience of existence, But emotions themselves do not dictate objective truth nor are they necessary to rationalize it. Which brings us back to the question asked why would anyone construct this colossal of a deception? The answer is emotions, and more specifically vengeance, out of jealousy out of self worship, over humility. You know which personality I am speaking of. This personality, this being is the spear head behind all this. But the being knows it cannot get direct vengeance on God, so it turns to those who it can, you and I, and all other forms of life, in order to attempt to hurt Him who created it. Which I infer God could very well overwrite but chooses not to, because of his established Law of Free will and logic, He cannot do that which is Illogical. so instead of erasing that which was committed it will instead be forgotten, and burnt up. But why this deception? because there is still rules this being has to abide by. It must wait for hits turn to play, and when it's turn comes up there is rules within the turn that must be followed which give it only a range of freedom to execute its lower case will. But the range of that freedom is what we men do not truly know and tend to underestimate, This being has inverted and continues to invert our understanding of our reality with clear malicious intent, Do you truly think that our understanding of our past is not on the table? To have control over someone's future and destiny with or without their consent you must first have control of where they came from, what they perceive is where they came from, because understanding where you come from, leads to understanding who you are. And it wants nothing more than to divert our destiny to an il end. That is who would construct this. 2. We underestimate what a being who knows us better than we know ourselves would be capable of, when given domain over the world once again, and the freedom to do its bidding to an extent, to which its limits we are currently unable to know. How would they maintain it, same reason a child believes that a overweight man will go down their chimney to leave presents, all in one night, and do it all over the world at that. blind faith friend, We trust it because we are told it by those whom we are suppose to trust and love. I think we'd be very surprised to see how long something can go for when no one questions it. Look around you, if you haven't realized the both phycological and spiritual matrix we have been raised under then you have contemplation to do brother. This matrix designed to keep you on the hamster wheel, confused, always anxious, sick, distracted, afraid. finding cheap fulfilment in indulgences, lust, always looking for the next high and cheap thrill. The next movie, the next game, the next event, the next relationship. numbing ourselves in the attempt to escape our own minds, but just comfortable enough to never want to change, a slow and subtle death sentence. you understand how after the 1000 year Reign, the rest of the dead lived again. and that the beast was once again loosed to deceive them. We must ask who were this dead? and what is our relationship to them? I think you can draw some good conclusions yourself if you care too. But this can only have validation because of the objective truth of scripture and any truth it does possess is explained by it It would be foolish to ignore the plausible aspects of truth that have been allowed to survive through myth and legend. for lot of these fill in the gaps that scripture did not see required for Salvation. But non the less helps us mold the true story of our past, but that was the future of the elect of 2nd coming generation, through the perspective of those surrounding it. The man attributed to the legend Genghis Khan shares a vast amount of similarities with the King Of Kings of the Millennium Reign in scripture. Both holding the same title, both Archers, both on white horses. But prophesied to rule the nations with a rod of Iron. It would not be a stretch that this persona would be a cover up for the True Identity of this King of Kings, you can look further into it as you see fit as have I and many others have. In regards to Arthur; 1 King, 12 disciples, 12 knights. 12 Zodiac signs, you think the truth was not carved into the foundation of existence itself? (How many tribes of Israel again?) both rulers of the greatest kingdom, both known have died but never decayed. one went to paradise the other to Avalon. both set to return. still think its a stretch, you should take a good look at "Divici's" last supper. very subtle of whoever truly made that I tell you. They know, and once you know, you know💿. “When the human race learns to read the language of symbolism, a great veil will fall from the eyes of men, They shall then know truth and, more than that, they shall realize that from the beginning truth has been in the world unrecognized." - some freemason Sleekit. always with their double meanings, telling us truth but also planning for us to fall for the lie. you must think critically about everything you've ever been taught, and begin to use your real eyes to realize the lies we've been taught to belive in every subject. for example, just go research the root meaning of pharmacy. Think we can't be deceived about our past? well... very likely about the entire physicality of our world as well💿.What does a Clay seal look like? Job 38:14 you have to search brother. The North, that is where The Great city will be, The Sacred Mountain. But we must understand that depending on where we truly are on the Time line of scripture, will decide who currently has been given physical power over the earth, Not Eternal Power Such as What God and Christ have always and will always have. But handed over physical power for a brief period of time. There are only 2 places where we can be in scripture, only 2. That is before the Millennium Kingdom or according to what I, like many others have researched, after the Millennium Kingdom. The only times We ("We" as in our contemporary generations in 2022) are on the scene, the evil one, the "prince of this world" has physical power over the earth, as little "g" god of the world. Which brings into question Who Admiral Byrd was truly welcomed by. I know logistically the North must be where this Chief of Mountains is, where the city will be, the cradle of man is, I don't think it's a coincidence the Swastika is a reoccurring symbol that has survived through countless cultures and ages prior to us, which is also the shape made by the constellations around the North Star mirroring the 4 rivers and continents. Traditions are solutions to problems we forgot, I think forgot it was a map. You can make out the swastika on the map Mercator sent to Elizabeth's Court Sorcerer Sir John Dee. Make 4 lines following the 4 rivers starting at the Mountain in the center, then encircle the top of each continent clockwise, The Native American sacred medicine wheel hides the origin of Man and the Cradle in the North within its true context each color representing one of the 4 ethnic groups of man, in correlation with the 4 types of clay, this is further acknowledged by Crazy Horse's prophecy; “Upon suffering beyond suffering; the Red Nation shall rise again and it shall be a blessing for a sick world. A world filled with broken promises, selfishness and separations. A world longing for light again. I see a time of seven generations when all the colors of mankind will gather under the sacred Tree of Life and the whole Earth will become one circle again. "
@@Willzyx88 Pt.2 This being, The evil one, if had been released, would covet This sacred Mount once more from both a strategic point and of authority. This being the same Mount as Mount Olympus to the Greeks. He was able to walk this Mount before, as he had even taken our Messiah up there to show him the kingdoms of the world, I infer that he would very likely be able to take up residence once again in a nearby location, this location may very well be this underground world on the opposite end of the Mount. The occult powers have been alluding to this for many years through films and stories, such as the Golden compass (which is ripe with allusion and symbology of what may truly be going on) or The Wizard of Oz's story of following the yellow brick road to center where the "emerald glass like city" resides. Where the will of this "wizard" stems from. Very reminiscent of the glass city Byrd claims to have been welcomed into. Which brings me to contemplate what is the true identity of this "master" that spoke to him, and even mentions the "dark Ages". Interesting when you take the tradition of a jolly man that lives in the north pole, whose name when rearranged very much spells another. It is very likely that all this subtle and "innocent" stories may be very well be alluding to something bigger. Who is the wizard behind the curtain set over this current age in the world? Let's hypothesize that we are in the short season, then our attention should include the matter of this Gog and Magog, Whom the Muslims seem to have shared stories of, some even including Alexander the Great, and that of a great wall holding them back in the far fridges of the north, or even Antarctica, To which I infer the entire HBO Game of Thrones predictive programming plot was all about. Antarctica being derived from The word Artic comes from the Greek word ἀρκτικός (arktikos), "near the Bear, northern" and from the word ἄρκτος (arktos), meaning bear. The name refers either to the constellation Ursa Major, the "Great Bear". Artur, Arturius or Arcturus being the origin of the name held by the legendary King Arthur, Its Scots/Celtic root is "artos," meaning "bear," and Arthur is said to mean "strong as a bear" - in Welsh, the name specifically means "bear hero." Arthur also draws from the Roman clan name Artorius, which means noble or courageous, and the Irish word "art," which means "stone." Variations include Art, Armel, Artis, Artie, Arturo, or even Auberon, which also means "bearlike." Arcturus is also the brightest star in the northern constellation of Boötes and the brightest in the northern celestial hemisphere.. Antarctica Means "Anti-Artic" Anti-Arcturius "in opposition to Arthur". Take what you will from this, I think there may be more to it than we know at the moment. Psalms 75:6 “For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.” 3. It accomplished exactly what it intended to do, Hide the Truth of Christ. How many are currently waiting for a second coming? brings to question what they might get. How many won't take scripture seriously, and accuse Christ of fraud or false, where is he after 2000 years they say? Only Spiritual Kingdom some say, yet he came to earth and died in the flesh? but would not rule on earth? all leaves room for doubt, all leaves room for compromise. It all goes back to "did he really say?". We must be critical of such things. Absolute Truth should be pursued regardless of the current understanding of the consequences it may or may not hold for us in contemporary. The enemy has left holes in its plot, And God has allowed us the grace to be able to understand them and search in them. It it is our Duty to do so, We must learn to love the truth. because the truth will set us free, because it will grant you peace. It has granted me peace. once you see it, everything falls down and you no longer fear anything in the world, or to come, this is why we must thirst for it. All the best, I hope you see it's all with good intention, In the end the truth will be what it is. hope that justifies the mental illness😎😉 “Truth is not what you want it to be; it is what it is, and you must bend to its power or live a lie.” -Miyamoto Musashi. ruclips.net/video/c876lPZ-UZU/видео.html (Prof Gunnar's Explanation) ruclips.net/video/zHCq5JMGKW0/видео.html ruclips.net/video/j84gfo1P1t8/видео.html ruclips.net/video/WCzWJcDzoJ4/видео.html ruclips.net/video/Mbfd3BZ_UAY/видео.html
A 30 pieces of silver kinda guy. Come on, man. The kingdom doesn't come with observation that you could say "look here!" Or "it's over there!". The kingdom is within you. It is not a geological place except than you manifest it in the here and now. If you want things and stuff, so be it. So do I. But that's not what the kingdom is. The things which are eternal are invisible. You know this.
Thank you for you this video. I'm looking into the Preterist theology. Do you think the resurrection that happened at Matt 27:51 is the chosen ones that went into the city and preached until they were caught away with the lord? Also how long is a generation?
Many of the Saints rising and going into the City is an interesting one. I see it simply as a witness. I would think this had to have been those who very recently had died, like Lazarus. They came back to physical life and eventually died again, imo. We have a story of a dead mans body touching the bones of Elijah and coming back to life. How much more when the Son of God is put in a tomb! Probably all who believed Jeaus was the Messiah and had recently died were brought back to life, imo. As far as the generation, 40 years is what was established in the OT. It's not a lifespan. It's the approximate time for a new generation to come. Meaning, by the time my kids are old enough to have kids. That's a generation.
As I see it, the major problem with Preterism is this: when Jesus says, “Truly I say, this generation shall not pass away until all these things are fulfilled,” that is a literal statement and then everything else is a metaphor. But before you read the rest of this post, look in a Greek Concordance and you will see that the word “genea” that is translated as “generation” also means race or family. From the very beginning Satan has wanted to destroy the Jews because He knew that God was using the Jews to fulfill His prophetic will. So, Satan used Hamen, Herod, Hitler and countless others including Islam to destroy the Jewish race. So, if Jesus said, “This Jewish race will not pass away (in spite of Satan’s efforts) until all prophecy will be fulfilled,” that makes more sense. For instance, Revelation 20 says, “And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain. He seized…Satan and bound him for a thousand years…to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time. I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony about Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years...they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him... When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth-Gog and Magog-and to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand on the seashore. They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God’s people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them.” BUT… In the Preterist view, Satan is NOT bound for a thousand years, the ones who were martyred for Christ did NOT come to life and, they were NOT priests of God and Christ who reigned with Christ for one thousand years. In the Preterist view, Satan did NOT gather the deceived nations (In number they are like the sand on the seashore) for battle against God’s people and evidently God did NOT literally reign fire down on them FROM Heaven and devour them. As a Preterist, you may say these things happened, but just not in a physical sense and NOT for a thousand years. But that is NOT what scripture says. Some will say the thousand years is NOT literally a thousand years just like when the Bible says, “God owns the cattle on a thousand hills…” it doesn’t mean He ONLY owns the cattle on a thousand hills. Well, it didn’t say God’s wealth is LIMITED to the cattle on a thousand hills. We know, as the eternal creator of the universe, God owns EVERYTHING. So, that would be literally TRUE to say God owns the cattle on a thousand hills. He owns those thousand hills AND all other hills. BUT to say the millennial reign ONLY lasted forty years or so, does NOT allow for the verses that say, “When the thousand years are over…” OR the verses that say “we will worship with God and Christ for ONE THOUSAND years.” That would be simply NOT true. ONE THOUSAND years is NOT a metaphor for forty years in any sense of the word. Also, Matthew 24:30-31: “Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then ALL the peoples of the earth (NOT just Jerusalem) will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory. And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, (NOT just Jerusalem) from one end of the heavens to the other." IF this happened in the first century and ALL the peoples of the earth saw the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, I think it would be the most spectacular event in all of history and historical records around the entire world would be rife with reports of dumbfounded people in total shock at the most amazing sight ever! Notice it says ALL the people of the earth and not just those around Jerusalem. Or are you saying All the peoples of the earth is a metaphor for people around Jerusalem. Also, Peter says, "The Day of the Lord comes as a thief, the heavens will disappear with a roar, the elements will melt in fervent heat, and the earth and all its works will be laid bare. Sorry, this did NOT happen in the first century Jerusalem. Again, the Bible says, “ALL the peoples of the earth (NOT just Jerusalem) will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds... And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, (NOT just Jerusalem) from one end of the heavens to the other.” Jesus also said, " For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now-and never to be equaled again." Whatever happened in the first century was NOT the greatest distress the world has ever been in. If this ONLY happened in and near Jerusalem, how does that surpass the death and destruction experienced in WW1, WW2, Nazi Germany’s horrible torturous murder of 6 million Jews and 6 million non-Jew as well. Then Jesus said, “Immediately after the distress of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.” This did not happen in the first century. It just seems to me, that Preterism takes a misunderstanding of the word “Genea” (generation instead of race) and makes EVERYTHING else to be some metaphor that doesn’t even make sense metaphorically.
Thanks for the thoughtful comment. I think that the ultimate strength of preterism is in the promises made and the time statements. I think the flaw of futurism is the Hellenized perspective/ultra-literal. Take for example, the sun darkened, moon not giving light, stars falling from the sky. This is an allusion to Genesis 37:9-10, "Then he dreamed still another dream and told it to his brothers, and said, 'Look, I have dreamed another dream. And this time, the sun, the moon, and the eleven stars bowed down to me.' So he told it to his father and his brothers; and his father rebuked him and said to him, 'What is this dream that you have dreamed? Shall your mother and I and your brothers indeed come to bow down to the earth before you?' Now you understand we are not talking about celestial bodies. Do you see the problem? And it's not just Matthew 24:29-31 you're unable to make sense of, it's the whole bible because you're being hyper-literal and the only consequence of that is total disorientation.
When talking to dispensational, premillennial mindset Christians about Preterism, they think you are heretical in your logic. I believe Preterism makes the most reasonable sense. Notwithstanding, how can any Christian judge another believer having a different eschatological position (let's say Preterist) and yet the Preterist believer continues to love the Lord, be Christ-honoring, and a genuine moral agent. In the overall Christian community, because believers have a tendency to become so traditional in their faith communities, they fail to have open minds to what Scripture often teaches.
There is a problem with conditioned tribalism within the sects of Christianity. They guard their doctrines because that's their unique selling point. If they lose their USP, they fear forfeiting their social and financial capital. It's a materialistic hunger for actual bread. Not spiritual bread, but Pepperidge Farm (US) or Hovis (UK). Haha. Unfortunately, it makes the whole enterprise of discussing these things ugly. But I'm trying to cultivate a space online where we can have these discussions in a nice way. I think our manner is so important. Right now, I'm creating a series on explaining the 1000-Yr Reign. I'm hoping to build enough momentum to really reach across aisles, interdenominationally and internationally. I'm not a scholar of the Bible but I have a background in sociology and psychology which helps in these discussions. Sometimes. 😄 Thanks for commenting.
So I just wanted to throw all of this out there, because “preterist” take some parts of the Bible literal, and the rest allegorical. Which is how they make all this fit into their time frame. 1st. The book of Revelation was written by John, on the island of Patmos during the reign of Roman Emperor Domitian, between 81 and 96 A.D. All recorded by Rome and the Jews, it was written in 95 A.D. that being said, I don’t know HOW y’all would pull anything from Revelation before 70 A.D.!? 2. We are told SPECIFICALLY in the Word what a 1000 years is to be interpreted as, 2 Peter 3:8* but beloved be not IGNORANT of this 1 thing* that with the Lord 1 day is as a 1,000 years, as a 1,000 years is to 1 day. Very specific and in order for a reason. Genesis 1 is creation in days to the Lord, 1,000s of years to creation. Genesis 2 this is the DAY the Lord God made the heaven(s) and earth in (1) day!! Very specific, it would have been 1 day to the Lord but a 1,000 years to Adam. *side note* Adam was told he would die in the DAY he ate if the fruit. He lived 930 years, so less then a 1,000 to man, and still 1 day to the Lord! Psalm 90:4 a 1,000 years are but yesterday to the Lord! So the 1,000 year millennial reign is a literal 1,000 years. Not allegory. A lot of Matthew that yall use is “future prophecies that have not happened yet. Satan is most definitely not bound yet!? 😳 if he were bound then why is death and sin still abounding? If the millennial reign has already happened then why aren’t they thrown into the lake of fire yet? You realize Satans let out of the chains after a 1,000 years and then DESTROYED in the lake of fire! So why is “death” still happening right now if all of that’s passed? 🤔 doesn’t even make since. Ecclesiastes 1:9 the thing that HAS been, is that which SHALL BE, and THAT which is done is THAT which shall be done! Past, present, FUTURE tense. There are things that haven’t even played out yet! Brother I pray that you get away from that indoctrination and start asking the Holy Spirit for these answers and stop relying on what “men” have indoctrinated you with! 2Ti 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, RIGHTLY DIVIDING the word of truth. 2Ti 2:16 But shun PROFANE and VAIN babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness. 2Ti 2:17 And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus(means opposer of Christianity) and Philetus(op of Christianity) 2Ti 2:18 Who CONCERNING THE TRUTH have ERRED, saying that the resurrection is PAST already; and overthrow the faith of some. That’s from Pauls mouth brother, meaning they were already dealing with the “preterist” view back then in those days. Paul and Peter both talk about “waiting on the day of the Lord” but that all these “prophesies” must come to pass FIRST as Yeshua himself said. Just throwing some different eschatology out there for ya!👍🏼 in Yeshuas mighty name I pray you receive it!
The time statements are what make it indisputable to me due to their emphasis on imminency. For me, that's the framework: a period from 30-70AD. So, I reason that 30-66AD is a good fit. Although, there is definitely room for disputing the details. • Matthew 16:28 - "Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom." Mark 9:1 - "And he said to them, ‘Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God arrive with power.’" Luke 9:27 - "Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God." Matthew 24:34 - "Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened." Mark 13:30 - "Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened." Luke 21:32 - "Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened." 1 John 2:18 - "Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour." Matthew 24:3 - "As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. ‘Tell us,’ they said, ‘when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?’" Mark 13:4 - "‘Tell us, when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are all about to be fulfilled?’" Luke 21:7 - "‘Teacher,’ they asked, ‘when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are about to take place?’" Revelation 1:1 - "The revelation from Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place. Revelation 1:3 - "Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near." Revelation 22:10 - "Then he told me, ‘Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this scroll, because the time is near.’" 1 Corinthians 7:29 - "What I mean, brothers and sisters, is that the time is short. From now on those who have wives should live as if they do not;" Romans 13:11-12 - "And do this, understanding the present time: The hour has already come for you to wake up from your slumber, because our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed. The night is nearly over; the day is almost here." Matthew 10:23 - "When you are persecuted in one place, flee to another. Truly I tell you, you will not finish going through the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes." Luke 18:8 - "I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?" 1 Corinthians 10:11 - "These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the culmination of the ages has come."
That testing was necessary. The binding wasn't in effect until Matt 12:29 and Luke 10:18. This binding doesn't stop all sin as James emphasised in James 1:14-15. The purpose of the binding is told, to permit the preaching of the gospel which Paul tells us was completed in his lifetime in various places.
@@Willzyx88 I have to look into that, new to preterism. So do you think that we can't sin any longer? I'm a flat earther and conspiracy theorist I'm leaning closer to partial preterism just because i look around and all these freemasons and illuminati stuff going around like the fake covid stuff. Idk looks like satan is currently loose.
@@dochollywood79 im a Biblical cosmologist too (fer) and this video like many other similar videos is fundamentally flawed. if you want me to explain just post here
@@heydude7568 - Yes, please explain. Yours is pretty much a worthless statement to make *without* an explanation. For instance, I could say, "You haven't a clue," which really wouldn't tell you much, would it, other than I disagree with your conclusion? With all of this space to publish ideas, why would anyone suppose a sentence or two should be a reasonable limit? As if an online forum is the equivalent of a bumper sticker? I don't think so.
I'm sorry to post again. But Paul said the Devil roams about as a lion seeking whom he may devour. Roaming is not descriptive of being bound. I' not trying to be an annoyance. These are the things that quickly come to mind as you give the presentation for what they are worth good or bad. Love your passion!
@Disciple888 He also says that the devil actively blinds people from the gospel. I've pinned a comment where I share a video that deals with these refutations. There might be more in that you find insightful. I'll share a fresh idea here though. To provoke some thought, Paul said the devil would be crushed soon. That was written around 57-58AD. This indicates the demise of Satan was fairly imminent. The verse you're referring to is 1 Peter 5:8, so it was actually Peter. I mix up my Peters and Pauls too but here's the significance of it being Peter. He is commonly said to have been martyred under Nero's reign. That means 1st Peter was written in the late 60s, which is when Satan would be loosed. So that actually works for my proposition. I think Paul was said to have been martyred along with Peter by Nero too.
@@Willzyx88 yeah Peter that’s right. Thanks! He’s bound when we bind him in the name of Jesus on a case by case basis. I was demon possessed 1978 and the Lord set me free. He’s a defeated foe to those who believe. I find Jesus teaching gives spiritual answers to physical and or carnal problems. I’m not a fan of The Zionist regime and don’t believe it will last much longer. It will disappear. This will hurt a lot of the faithful and some will leave the faith. That is exactly what the Zionist goal is to destroy Christianity.
@@Willzyx88 At least some Amillennialists believe that the Christians who have died are ruling with Christ from Heaven. This takes place during the time between Christ’s First and Second Comings. They believe Satan is bound. Here is a major problem with that; If we just take a simple look at the world today it certainly does not appear that Satan is bound (so as not to deceive the nations) and Christ is ruling and reigning. If Satan is bound during the Church Age as per Amillennial doctrine, then why does scripture call him the god of this world? Also, if Satan was bound and Christ was reigning, do we really think we would have over a billion Muslims, who view Jesus as a prophet right below Mohamad, a billion Buddhists, who believe Jesus was an enlightened person, a billion Hindus, who believe Jesus studied yoga and became a guru to the Jews, a billion Catholics who are entrusting their souls to Mary at the hour of their death, nearly a billion atheists, the LGBTQ running rampant, TV shows and movies, that continually blaspheme God and His Christ, drinking, drugs, human trafficking, and colleges that have become propaganda mills that promote Godless, Big-bang theology and Darwinian Evolution, and a host of other sinful deeds that will be eliminated during the reign of Jesus Christ, our Holy God. This is a good example of eisegesis; reading pre-conceived ideas into the text, rather than simply reading what the text is clearly stating. Also, with Christ ruling from Heaven, why does 2nd Timothy 3:1-13 say, "But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God."
@Willzyx88 it's very important to remember and teach Everlasting life is giving by God through belief in the scriptures,, Do you believe Father sent his Son, These 4 things are evidence 1 Everlasting gospel 2 Everlasting dominion 3 Everlasting life 4 Everlasting righteousness = EVERLASTING EVANGELISM !! UNTO ALL GENERATIONS !! WITHOUT END !! THROUGHOUT ALL AGES !!
There is an alternative view, sometimes referred to as partial preterism. We agree that the Revelation was written to seven churches in Asia, in signs or symbols of events that would begin to take place in the first century. We would agree that this message of Christ to John, to deliver to these seven churches, is a message of hope, in that it demonstrates the defeat of all enemies of Christ and His church. These enemies were empowered by Satan. The first enemy, the harlot, or Old Jerusalem was defeated in 70 AD as retribution for spiritual adultery of the Jews, "We have no king but Caesar, crucify Him, let this man's blood be on us and on our children." The harlot was destroyed by the beast whose back she rode, but who hated her. The beast, which was the Roman Empire with its forced worship of its Caesar as God, was the next enemy to be destroyed. The rider of the white horse, Christ eventually defeated Rome with the gospel message, the sword of the Spirit coming from His mouth, and then against all odds and after much persecution, by the 4th century Christianity had become the national religion of the Roman Empire. The final enemy yet to be destroyed is Satan himself, who had empowered the previous enemies of Christ. The Holy Spirit in His revelation of truth separates the defeat of the first two enemies (harlot, Old Jerusalem/beast, Roman Empire) from the defeat of Satan by a minimum of 1,000 years. The millennium itself is symbolic, representing a greater period of time than 1,000 years, and thus, it is still happening, and has been happening since the collapse of the Roman system of forced Emperor worship and triumph of the church over the Roman Empire. Satan then rallies his allies once again at the very end of all things, and attempts to turns the world against Christianity, in order to finally wipe it out, but just before he is successful, Christ intervenes and ends all things. Satan is destroyed, all humanity is resurrected for the final judgment, and after this, eternity begins for all.
Thanks for sharing. I think the partial preterist view is a good perspective but I'm quite grounded in my full blown preterism haha But I'll always keep an open mind
What if Satan’s power was limited from 970 BC, from the beginning of the building of the 1st temple … perhaps why the Jews were complaining to Peter that “since the fathers fell asleep, nothing has happened” … but Peter says God is not slack … then almost immediately the tribulation begins around AD 63/64 …
Fascinating point. Definitely opens up a discussion. I'll try to explore that point in a live stream once I get some good software to run a proper one.
Thanks for viewing and commenting. I used to think I was 100% Scottish but recently discovered from a DNA test I'm 48% Irish. There's a school of philosophy called 'Scottish Common Sense Realism', I think this tradition helps encourage an approach or hermanutic that really strives for the truth or heart of the matter.
Make that "Scots-Irish" or "Ulster-Scots" They were the Presbyterian Preterist crofters from the Islands and Highlands who were displaced from their glens by the newly appionted English nobility who had been awarded Scottish estates by the Stewart Kings of England. The six Ulster counties were unable to get the catholic Irish to work satisfactorily and they welcomed the influx of Scotsmen with a Protestant work ethic. Eventually those Scots-Irish tired of the suffocating English feudal system and they emigrated en-masse to the Western Appalachia Indian territory in the Carolinas. They were beyond the control of English government in America and became known as the "Over the Mountain Boyz". They were rugged frontiersmen Indian fighters who lived with their beloved John Knox Geneva Bible in one hand and a Kentucky long rifle in their other hand. By age 12, everyboy could hit an english coin at 200yds with their rifle. In 1780 General Cornwallis invaded Charleston and Savannah and set out to kill every Over the Mountain Boy he could find. The English soldiers and their American loyalists all took their oath of office with their hand on a KJV Bible and pledged their allegiance to King George in England. Their weapon was the woefully inaccurate smooth bore 'Brown Bess'. Using their hard learned Indian fighting guerrilla tactics, the Presbyterian Preterist Scots-Irish reeked revenge on the English military's "Divine Right of Kings" doctrine with their famous battle cry -- "NO KING BUT JESUS !" The Geneva Bible toting frontiersmen slaughtered the English military and drove them out of the Carolinas and trapped them on the Yorktown peninsular. Only the timely arrival of Washington's Northern army prevented the total annihilation of the Cornwallis Army of just 9000 survivors. The American War of Independence was a battle of the Bibles, and God chose the winners.
After a while, the hate turns into a faint white noise. I can just about drown it out when I raise my voice and get this idea out. Appreciate you stopping by.
@@Willzyx88 Yes! There is tonns of evidence for this theory. Preterist Archive is a good place to look also. I'm sure you've been there already. Deus est Veritas.
After watching this video again, I understand Willy's point better. The 1000 years is symbolic not literal; considering this is a symbolic book that is valid. And the 'binding' of Satan for a 1000 years is also symbolic of being restrained until Christ finished (completed) His work in the first century.
@@Willzyx88 ...No Problem Brother! I still appreciate the video because it got me thinking of these passages from a 'symbolic' perspective. A thought that entered my mind was that the 'binding' could have been at the 'temptation' when Christ is victorious and says 'get behind me Satan'; I'm looking forward to hearing more from You Bro! Grace & Peace.
Why would anyone beyond the 1st century think they are part of someone else's story? Those books don't apply to anyone other than those in the stories themselves.
David's "reign is traditionally dated from about 1000 to 962 [B.C.] and he ruled for 40 YEARS.When you add 962 B.C PLUS 40 years reign of Christ its 1000 years.
I can see that, could be seen as the end of the Davidic rule on some level, a la 1 Cor 15:28. I've bought a second copy of Eric Fugett's 'A Personal Revelation', which is good for exploring these kinds of themes. Lost my first copy. Excited to see what's there.

My question I have for you if the rapture took place in the first century how are there Christians today who preach the gospel from that time unto us? Cause Paul said we all shall be caught up together.
A Millennium Puzzle to solve… Will Christ be conducting funeral services for mortals killed in accidents 500 years after His Second Coming?
The “first resurrection” in Rev. chapter 20 is not the first bodily resurrection in the Book of Revelation, because the two witnesses are resurrected from the dead in chapter 11. There are two different types of resurrection in John chapter 5. There is a spiritual resurrection from the dead in John 5:24, and a bodily resurrection from the dead in John 5:28-29.
Does your view of the Millennium agree with what Paul said in 2 Thess. 1:7-10, when Paul said Christ returns in "flaming fire" taking vengeance on those who do not obey the Gospel? The fire comes at the end of Rev. chapter 20.
Does your view agree with what Peter said in 2 Peter 3:10-13, when Peter said this earth is going to burn and "dissolve" when He comes as a thief on the day of the Lord? The fire comes at the end of Rev. chapter 20.
Does your view agree with what Paul said in 2 Tim. 4:1, when Paul said both the living and the dead will be judged at His appearing? The time of the judgment of the dead, with reward for some and destruction for others is found in Rev. 11:18, right after the 7th trumpet, which is the last trumpet in the Bible. (This verse also proves the Book of Rev. is not in chronological order.) The judgment of the dead is also found at the end of Rev. chapter 20.
Does your view agree with what Jesus said in Matt. 25:31-46, where He described the judgment of the sheep and goats, which leaves no mortals alive on the planet at the end of the passage? There are also no mortals left alive on the planet at the end of Rev. chapter 19.
Does your view agree with Peter in 2 Pet. 2:4, and Jude in Jude 1:6, when they both said wicked angels are already in chains of darkness?
Does your view agree with what John recorded in Rev. 9:1-2, when an angel comes down from heaven with a key to unlock the pit, which means the pit was locked before that time? Are there wicked angels already in the pit in Rev. 9:11? John recorded angels already "bound" in Rev. 9:14. The beast "ascends" out of the pit in Rev. chapter 11, which means the beast was in the pit before that time.
Take all of the above and compare it to the symbolic language found in Rev. chapter 20, and the fact the Book of Revelation is not in chronological order, and you will have the truth.

Multiple Second Coming Visions in Revelation: (book not in chronological order )
Christ returns one time in the future. However, there are several different visions of His return shown from different perspectives in the Book of Revelation.
Christ returns at the end of Revelation chapter 6, with signs in the sun, moon, and stars, as are found in the Olivet Discourse.
Those at the end of the chapter are hiding from the wrath of the Lamb.
Why would they be hiding if Christ is not present?
The "kings", "captains", "might men", "free", and "bond" are also found in chapter 19 at the return of Christ.
He returns at the 7th trumpet, which is the last trumpet in the Bible, and the time of the judgment of the dead in Revelation 11:15-18.
The beginning of chapter 12 is a history lesson containing the fall of Satan, and the birth and death of Christ, who is the seed promised to crush the head of Satan in Genesis 3:15.
The Second Coming is found in the "harvest" of chapter 14, which is related to the parable of the wheat and tares in Matthew chapter 13.
He comes as a thief at Armageddon, and we find the greatest earthquake in history in chapter 16. This occurs when the 7th angel pours out his vial. How powerful is an earthquake which moves islands and destroys the mountains? What is happening to the planet?
He comes on a horse in chapter 19, right after the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
Chapter 20?
Does He come with the fire, and the judgment of the dead at the end of chapter 20, which agrees with what Paul said in 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10, and 2 Timothy 4:1?
(The time of the judgment of the dead is also found in Revelation 11:18.)
There are no mortals left alive on the planet at the end of Matthew 25:31-46.
Why does an angel come down from heaven with a key to unlock the bottomless pit in Revelation 9:1-2, if the pit was not already locked before that time? Are there wicked angels in the pit in Rev. 9:11? If the beast "ascends" from the pit in Rev. chapter 11, where was the beast before that time?
Does your view agree with Peter in 2 Pet. 2:4, and Jude in Jude 1:6, when they both said wicked angels are already in chains of darkness?
Revelation 9:14 proves some of the angels were previously bound in some manner.
Because the two witnesses were bodily resurrected from the dead in Revelation 11, the "first resurrection" at the beginning of Revelation 20 is not the first bodily resurrection in the book.
The principle of "Recapitulation" means there are multiple visions of His return..
Some apostles were still living after 70 AD, and certainly their own disciples. Why did NO ONE write anything about all prophesies were complete. Even at the beginning of the 2nd century, ALL the Christian writers failed to mention this. If you read their early writings and their testimony about the apostles, not one of them understood Jesus already came, His apocalypse was over, and this is it. Why?
@@AJW-c8i Hyper-Preterism Unmasked:
Is Matthew 10:23 about 70 AD, or is it about Jesus coming as the King to Israel? The answer is found below in Zech. 9:9. Did Jesus "cometh" as the King of Israel riding on a donkey during the week He was crucified? If Matthew 10:23 is about 70 AD, Peter ignored the commandment given by Jesus in Matthew 10:5-7, when Peter went to the house of Cornelius. It did not take the disciples forty years to take the Gospel to Israel. In Romans 1:16 Paul said the Gospel was taken "first" to the Jews. This time period of the Gospel going "first" to Israel is found in Matt. 10:5-23, and Acts chapter 2, and Acts 10:36-38, and Galatians 1:14-18.
Zec 9:9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.
The Old Covenant age died at Calvary when God ripped the temple veil in half from the top to the bottom at the moment His Son died at Calvary. There is no record in the NT of any person coming to salvation outside of the New Covenant between Calvary and 70 AD. Hebrews 7:12 proves there was a change in the law before 70 AD. We are not come to Mount Sinai in Hebrews 12:18. We are come instead to the New Covenant Church of Mount Zion and the blood of Jesus in Hebrews 12:22-24. This passage was written in the present tense before 70 AD.
If the Hyper-Preterists (Full-Preterists) were correct the Old Covenant age would come back into existence if a temple were rebuilt, and animal sacrifices are renewed.
Any basic book on Astronomy proves we are not now living in the "eternal" New Heavens and New Earth, because the sun only has a limited amount of nuclear fuel. We now understand the nuclear reaction inside the core of the sun, because of the testing of thermonuclear weapons.
I'm totally with you Willy. I wish there were more preterist teaching churches around.
Lol.... no one knows the truth.... the anti christ has not yet been healed. 😊
To enter heaven you must become a child again, and know how you act when told not to do something, and your whole world will crumble as you rise up again as Almighty Son of God ❤
They would lose most of their support. They have been lying all this time.
Check out Berean Bible Church
Yes I wish that too 😎
I been a full preterist since 2019 it's grown alot.
The problem is that within preterism we already have sub beliefs for example hypeperterism which futurist see as full preterism but that's more like IO ( Isreal only) which believes Jesus came picked up some Jews and that's all folks. 😮
Some futurist think we are all Universalist. When they see a preterist that's what they think we are.
A lot of belifes fall under the umbrella of preterism
It was fun watching your excitement. I had this same joy when I found out this last summer!
This is catching on. It will make a lot of people mad. Right now all nations are being deceived.
True that! But we the nation of God are not deceived. Amen.
@@LemireCassie many are waking up. It’s a problem for them.

@@rebeccaringler1265 who wants who to be terrified?
Im a novice myself as only recently come to faith and just debunked dispensationalism as I went after the truth so I’ve ended up coming across your page today as I’m being called to study out preterism in depth as my next theme
I found this piece below a while ago on another persons fb page & kept it in mind :-
“i have discovered through my research that the doctrine of "Chiliasm" or what is known as the 1000-year millennium is a Jewish rabbinic construct, especially found in the writings of the kabbalists, and was seeded into the church over the centuries to keep up the expectation of this coming earthly utopia in the minds of people of all faiths. It is a very subtle method of control, as Christians keep buying books by the latest dispensational authors, from Hal Lindsay in the 70s, to the Left Behind series of 80s and 90s to all the mainstream ministries (who are controlled) like Mike Evans, J. Cahn, John Hagee...the list goes on and on, yet they have nothing to say, only repeating the same script they have been pushing on the people of God.for centuries. “
COPIED DeAnne Loper.
Thanks for sharing that with me. I believe there's something to that. There's a materialism to selling people on expectations regarding the end times. Self-absorbed people profit off it and show themselves to be devoid of the abundance of the Spirit.
Instead of looking into the future, we should reflect inwardly about the presence of the Spirit within us and live in that Heavenly presence. People make the mistake of thinking we are going here and there. It is all here in the present, in some profound sense. We should take some time in the day amongst our various chores and such to rest in the knowledge of Christ's victory and the peace of that Heavenly kingdom and lovely relationship with God
@@Willzyx88I’m noticing the closer I get to the truth of scripture and to the Fathers doctrine as opposed to anything man made, the more at peace I am Becoming which is as you say being present with Christ in the here and now and in connection with Christ rather than this futurist view
The new testament writers using words like " soon " doesnt mean what you assume it must mean. Isaiah and other prophets used words like " soon, at hand quickly " when referring to things far in the future, even isaiah used at hand when talking about the day of the Lord. isaiah 13:6 " Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty. 7 Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man’s heart shall melt: 8 And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames. 9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it. 10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, "
So 600-700 years before Jesus, the day of the Lord was still described as AT HAND. That should alone put all of this to bed, but i have more for you.
2 peter 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Written 2-3 years before 70 AD
Hes an apostle, he would know when its coming right? So why did he comfort those asking about the coming of the Lord by saying that a day for the Lord is as a 1000 years. Knowing that in just a couple years, the Lord would return.
Its going to be 2 days, in 2030-2033.
Matthew 24:34, yes, THAT generation, of which the subject of discussion was about. Not the apostles. he even said they would die very early into it.
Jesus asked if he would find faith on the earth at his return. Why would he say that, when he knows that pretty much all the apostles will live only 2-3 short of his " coming " in 70AD ? 2-3 is not enough time for suddenly everyone who was preached to fall away, all the churches hat were established to fall away.
But 2000 years.... makes more sense doesn't it?
Read all of matthew 24 again. The parables about Jesus. Describing that he was going on a long journey. That people would begin to slack and wonder at his coming. 2-3 years without the church fathers isnt enough time for this to occur.
Matthew 24, is about the apostles asking Jesus 3 questions. The destruction of the temple, the sign of the son of man coming, and the end of the age. Jesus answered all 3. Matter of fact, he even said that the apostles would die in the beginning, then described the temple being destroyed as they asked, then went into the sign of his coming and then said nobody knows the day of the end of the age, not even angels.
3 questions, 3 answers. That whole conversation wasn't all about 70 AD, that was only the beginning.
Now brother, lets see the times were in, end time dreams rampant, we know that revelation was supposed to be the worst time to ever been, and to be. Lets see if we had anything worse then what happened in 70 AD. Nations falling away from Christ, Islam is growing rapidly. Atheism is growing rapidly. Both at their biggest. Christianity is the most mocked religion. Filled with mostly luke warm, deceived christians who just go to mega churchs/prosperity preachers, they go for a show, not for the Lord and thats those who even go to church, imagine if Paul saw this, he probably does from heaven right now..
We had WW1 AND WW2 in the span of the last 100 years. We’re on the brink of WW3 right now. During the world wars 6 MILLION jews got hunted, gassed and burned. Christian’s are getting beheaded in the middle east by muslims. Just because you or me dont see that kind of persecution in our neighborhoods, doesn’t mean it’s not there. Look at China. Theyre changing the bibles, making Jesus, Yeshua a murderer. People there are BLESSED, to have a normal bible and have to fellowship in secret. Hundreds of thousands of abortions per year from the west alone. CLINICS, specifically built for it. People glorifying themselves over it. We’re on the brink of transhumanaterianism with not only AI but the mixing and messing with dna and mixing with technology. First neurolink BRAIN implant happened a month ago, WEF comities which consist of the worlds presidents and the most richest and powerful people saying they can finally “ HACK the human genetic code “ Israel just became a nation again in 1948 after 2400 years of being scattered.
Are you saying that the events in 70 AD, supposed revelation ( worst time in human history to ever been or to be ) is worse then black death that wiped out 1/3 of europe in 1300? Or WW2 that had over 12 MILLION casualties. 6 MILLION Jews GASSED. 9 MILLION russians starved by their own leader. NUCLEAR BOMBS, wiping out entire cities off the map. TENS of thousands of casualties in a blink of an eye. Islam growing rampant and took over like a swarm of locusts. Name me a time in history where the CHURCH, US, Have been more divided then TODAY. How many denominations? HOW MANY GOSPELS? HOW MANY VERSIONS OF JESUS? HOW MANY DOCTRINES?! Kids in africa STARVING, kids outside in your city STARVING, CHILDREN being molested and trafficked around the world RIGHT NOW, there is a literal MARKET for it as you read this. Look at the mocking satanism in ALL MEDIA. The Media you CANT ESCAPE, because it’s SO deeply engraved into peoples lives. Movies, shows, music, work, ads, societal norms, trends, and were only heading deeper into it. Until 7 months ago when i was saved and born again i though i was Christian but i didn’t even know who JESUS, YESHUA, was. That’s majority of Christian’s. Christian’s by their family, yet they don’t know what Christianity is, what Jesus truly did for us, that he TRULLY rose again. There is more deception NOW then ever before in human history EVER. Back then you could live in your city and never hear about any other god then what your city believes in. Now?! Hundreds of false religions who all have just enough stolen truth that people can be deceived, all in your palm for easy access via device thats pretty much magic, that you rely on so heavily. Even worse, now it’s normalized to say that there is no God at ALL. That has never ever happened ever in all of humanity. Somebody has always been believed in something, divinity was always recognized. This is a NEW religion of self.
Revelation doesn’t only depicts things in Israel, although that’s the centre piece, it also depicts world events.
Today the government has the power to freeze your bank account and you’re done. During covid, how EASILY, did…what was it? 85 or 90% of canadian get vaccinated under threat of JUST not being able to go to the store or to work/school? How easily was the world tricked? What’s gonna happen when they threaten our lives alongside not being able to buy or sell? 95% of the world? 99%? How many will fold?!
Cmon..you cannot tell me that 70 AD was the worst time in human history. It was awful. Very awful. But let those people see hiroshima, let their eyes watch 140 thousand people get vaporized instantly. Let them see the tzar bomba get dropped that shook the entire earth. Let them see the state of Christianity now, Let PAUL see the churches of today. Yes the deaths might not be as brutal. At least what you see. Again, look to the middle east, all the atrocities are there. But death isn’t the only kind of persecution, hatred and tribulation. You might die the same day that you go and preach on the streets that you’re a Christian in islamic countries in the middle east, and get beheaded out in the desert.
Yes the Lord comforted the people of 70 AD. I can’t explain to you why revelation is written to us other then maybe it’s double fulfilment like a lot of other things in the bible seem to be ( but we won’t know until it happens. )
So i don’t know if revelation is about to unfold, or if it’s unfolding and has been for the last 2000 years. But it cannot be finished by logic. Rev 20-22.
Not to mention how bad times are now and 90% of what i mentioned is from the last 100 years ALONE.
I get it you think we’re asleep thinking that only the Lord can put at end to it. But we’re saying that end is coming now.
Israel became a nation in 1948 after 2400 years. We got the technology for mark of the beast. We got the power for one world government, we got the timeline. 2030-2033 is 2000 years since Jesus. 1000 years is like a day for the Lord ( 2 Peter 3:8 ) . 2 days since Jesus, entering 3rd day, 3rd day of resurrection. Hosea 6, ( on the third day we will be in his sight, yes it’s about Jesus but could this be double fulfillment? ) 6000 years since adam in 2030-2033, 3rd day of resurrection and 7th day of rest at the same time. When else in history would this be possible? Never before and never again.
Consider this.
@@jennyclairewaite42
I an always willing to listen to opposing views, but I will stress you to stay away from preterism.
Because it requires you to "spiritualize" and "allegorize" and "metaphorize" pretty much all of God's powers, deeds, and promises.
It starts with having to pretty much turn all of the very literal language about how the end times, and specifically how the new heavens and new earth will be, and how our ressurection will be into pretty much nothing, but pure metaphors, because otherwise pretty much none of that happened.
And the irony is they base the interpretation that all of it must have come to pass on an extremely literal interpretation of jesus promising the temple will be destroyed. They say "well the temple was destroyed so that's when all this occured"
Riggghht. So that one was literal but everything else was some kind of metaphors, or exaggerated language.
It requires you to start cherry picking at which prophecies jesus actually meant would really happen, and which ones were just stand in language for something else that would actually happen without and discernment if that comming from the text itself.
It con at the cost of not only doing that to what would be future prophecies, but things that scripture did say already happened. Such as all of genesis. If you don't interpret the new making of heavens and earth to be free from all curse, and sin in a literal way, then what was the world before Adam sinned? Was death, and suffering a part of God's very good creation prior to man ever bringing in sin? If so that doesn't track with the rest of the scriptures at all.
And many will say "it wasn't physical death, but spiritual death that was introduced after the fall" .
Well that would be a mighty fine answer, except the Bible makes no such distinction in any of the old testimate. And there is really only one place in the new testimate that has anything you could potentially stretch to mean that, it is where there is a warning to not fear man who can only destroy the body, but to fear God also who can destroy both body and soul in hell. But to try to stretch read that into genesis to rework the text to say that it was only spiritual death that was introduced is extremely disingenuous at best. And not only that, there is a prooftext against that from jesus own words as well.
If was when some sagasies tried to corner jesus in questioning. They presented the question that since if a man has a wife, and has no kids with her, if he dies, she is to be wed to his brother to keep the lineage going, as per the law of Moses. So they proposed that a man had seven brothers, and they all die in sequence over time, so the wife was wed to each of them at some point, but she never had any kids with any of them, and then she finally dies. They then ask him who's wife she will be in the resurection when all are made alive again. And jesus said to them that in the resurection nobody Marries, or gives in marriage because everyone will be "like unto the angels" and there will be no death"
I suppose some might want to latch onto the "like unto angels" part to try to say we are only spiritually resurrected, but that's sort of a shaky thing to so because of the original Greek involved there. The point jesus was making is that after the resurection, the law of Moses that says a woman must marry her husband's brother if he dies without having kids with her will not be a law anymore because in the ressurection everyone is immortal and there is no more death.
There's a whole lot more as to why we can go over why preterism is wrong, but this comment is long enough.

Im a partial preterist but your enthusiasm is infectious
Just a word for you. You might not stay a partial preterist for long. It seems we don't camp out there very long once we hear the truth. God Bless.
In the days we live in...this is the position that really makes the most sense and gives the most peace.
Is that what it is all about? Giving you the most peace? Jesus Christ said I came not to bring peace but a sword. Matthew 24 is correlated with Revelation 6. Preterism is false.
thank you for your view point on this topic, the millennial rain is a difficult topic in preterism, but at least its only one mystery. where as futurism has 1000's of problems.
Well said!!😂
I think there's a VERY obvious explanation for what the Millennium is, but it's almost impossible for Protestants to see due to their hatred of Catholicism. The Devil, the Divider, the Adversary/Satan is imprisoned until around 1054 AD, when the Church experiences its largest, most destructive schism. Fast forward another 1000 years and Christendom is broken again and again, hundreds of times over.
Why is it a problem? Where does it say millennial? It says 1000. Just like beast doesn’t say antichrist.
The lord owns the cattle on a 1000 hills. What about the 1001? Or does it say the lord owns the cattle on millennial hill? One day in your court is better than a 1000 else where. What about 1001?
This was 4 years ago. Good things to mull. I too am a preterist and the thousand year term has been a stickler. Thank you.
The Bible actually uses hyperbole throughout. Do the hills really jump and leap ? Does God only own the cattle on a thousand hills?
Doing my best for knowledge and wisdom in the LORD, this makes most sense. GOD Bless Willy Amen namen.
Here's what I think the biggest problem is for this theory:
[Rev 20:4-5 ESV] 4 Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom the authority to judge was committed. *Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.* 5 The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended. This is the first resurrection.
1) it clearly says that the martyrs who died in the name of Christ will be resurrected from the dead, and then they will rule for 1000 years. So the 1000 years begins at their resurrection. After the 1000 years ends, there is ANOTHER resurrection of ALL the dead. So essentially you are boiling the 1000 years down to less than a 100. Well did the second resurrection already happen then?
Have all these things have happened? Has there already been 2 resurrections?
Also, here is how the millennial is described in Isaiah:
[Isa 65:20 CSB] 20 "In her, a nursing infant will no longer live only a few days, or an old man not live out his days. Indeed, the one who dies at a hundred years old will be mourned as a young man, and the one who misses a hundred years will be considered cursed.
Has this already happened? When on the Earth has it been the case that men dying at the age of 100 were considered dying young?
The real truth is if preterisim is true then the only way to reconcile it is to believe Christ already came, he reigned for a literal 1000 years where people could live long enough that they could observe men living far past 100, and now the 1000 years is over, and Satan has been unbound and has altered the history records, changing times and seasons, and now we are in the short season of deception.
Im not saying I believe the short season doctrine btw, it's just the only one that truly makes sense if the preterist view is True
One key issue to clarify my perspective is the interpretation and understanding of abstract concepts. I reject the idea that the 1000 years is supposed to be understood as literal - so little of The Revelation is literal with its sea (Israel) and land (Rome) beasts and giant mountain harlots (harlot Israel + Roman authority). And I'd say the same of Isaiah, it's not about living until you're at least 100 nor lions and lambs laying down together. It's usually always qualitative not quantitative. The motif of 1000 is used in the OT a few times: Deut 1:11;7:9; Ps 50:10; 90:4; 105:8; Ecc 6:6; Josh 23:10; Job 9:6, etc.
But you've changed my mind on something.
First, it's clear to me now that there is no such thing as a 1000-year reign of Christ. It's not a biblical concept. There is no interim reign. Instead, this 1000 years refers to two other categories: i) the dragon and ii) the martyrs. I overlooked this before.
That helps me make more sense of the issues. You picked up on some irregularities about the resurrections and timings, and that got me thinking. If the dragon's internment ends in AD64 (I believe this describes Nero's persecution) then the end of that 1000 years cannot be AD70.
Rev 20:4, describes the righteous dead: those on thrones whom judgement was committed and the martyrs killed under Nero. I believe they were living and reigning in Paradise Hades, this is the first resurrection: the life of the righteous dead in Paradise ("God is not the God of the dead but the living").
The second resurrection would be experienced ~70AD
I saw it best explained here,
"There is a first and second death and a first and second resurrection. The first death is the death of the body, physical death. The second death is the eternal destruction of the soul or spirit in Gehenna (cf. II Thess. 1:9, 10 - "Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power, when he shall come to be glorified in his saints"). The first resurrection is the spirit in Hades Paradise; the second resurrection is the receipt of eternal life in heaven. The second coming would mark the time when Hades was destroyed and the soul received its eternal reward. John depicts this in Revelation by the following imagery (Rev. 20:11-15)"
Finally, I always come back to Revelation 1:1,4.
Whatever it is we are talking about, the context is this:
The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants-things *which must shortly take place.* And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John ... John, to the seven churches which are in Asia
we're only now at the very early stages of men dying at the age of 100 being considered dying young. there maybe people living now that by the time they reach 100 it will be considered young. perhaps 100 will be in the new 40 one day not too far away.
it seems to me that the 1000 years started when Jesus returned around AD70 as those who were beheaded for their testimony are likely to have died in the run up to AD70.
Satan was released for a short time when the 1000 years had finished and wreaked havoc for a short time which could be the second world war (fire came down = blitz, camp of God's people = concentration camps).
Israel became a nation again shortly after the second world war seems significant.

The 'sea' is symbolic of Gentiles, not Israel. The 'sea' is the beast (kingdom) of Gentiles - out of the sea of Gentiles. The sea is always symbolic of the nations of the world excluding Israel - 'Peoples, nations, tribes and languages' of the world (Gentiles).
@@Willzyx88Question...isn't the first death spiritual because God said Adam and Eve would die but they died spiritually not physically? This topic confuses me a bit.
The passages for Revelation 20:4 have to be separated. The first is about the Saints that rose with Christ in Matthew 27:
Matthew 27
50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
52 *_And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,_*
53 *_And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many_*
Revelation 20
4 - 1st passage:
*_And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them:_*
The next passage jumps to those that were slaughtered during the Great Tribulation:
Revelation 20
4 passage 2
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
Next, *_the vision goes back to the first thought of the Saints in the 1st passage:_*
Revelation 20
4 passage 3
*_and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years._*
This is definitely the Saints from the 1st passage and not the persons from the 2nd passage.
Coming in late 3yrs after video was made and don’t know why I’ve never seen this one…very well put, but there is a wrench that keeps getting thrown into all this for me and that’s
Rev 5:10
“You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign upon the earth.”
Unless all translations are wrong about saying they will rule “UPON the Earth”
There is also "the meek inherit the earth"
I feel like all that is left is New Jerusalem coming down from heaven (which we will undoubtedly be told is Thanos or whatever coming to kill us all so everyone unites) and that New Jerusalem is where the saints have been during Satan's season now. That's the camp of the saints that will be surrounded I think.
I even hear Truther Christians say it will be a fake alien invasion but New Jerusalem is very real.
And I believe this is what is coming with the city-
"The Son of Man will send his angels and they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all law-breakers and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth."
Matthew 13:41-42
It won't be hard for Satan to convince people that's the evil that's happening. Even believers will see the fire and destruction and believe evil has visited them because they are so deceived by the Rapture stuff
ruclips.net/video/pRIEnpTwoO0/видео.html
@@ChristinaFromRUclips Oh my goodness. The rapture is irrelevant. I believe i go through the tribulation. But its YET TO COME. So dont tell me ill be deceived by destruction. Thats what were all looking for. EVEN pre tribbers..
@@ChristinaFromRUclips The new testament writers using words like " soon " doesnt mean what you assume it must mean. Isaiah and other prophets used words like " soon, at hand quickly " when referring to things far in the future, even isaiah used at hand when talking about the day of the Lord. isaiah 13:6 " Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty. 7 Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man’s heart shall melt: 8 And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames. 9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it. 10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, "
So 600-700 years before Jesus, the day of the Lord was still described as AT HAND. That should alone put all of this to bed, but i have more for you.
2 peter 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Written 2-3 years before 70 AD
Hes an apostle, he would know when its coming right? So why did he comfort those asking about the coming of the Lord by saying that a day for the Lord is as a 1000 years. Knowing that in just a couple years, the Lord would return.
Its going to be 2 days, in 2030-2033.
Matthew 24:34, yes, THAT generation, of which the subject of discussion was about. Not the apostles. he even said they would die very early into it.
Jesus asked if he would find faith on the earth at his return. Why would he say that, when he knows that pretty much all the apostles will live only 2-3 short of his " coming " in 70AD ? 2-3 is not enough time for suddenly everyone who was preached to fall away, all the churches hat were established to fall away.
But 2000 years.... makes more sense doesn't it?
Read all of matthew 24 again. The parables about Jesus. Describing that he was going on a long journey. That people would begin to slack and wonder at his coming. 2-3 years without the church fathers isnt enough time for this to occur.
Matthew 24, is about the apostles asking Jesus 3 questions. The destruction of the temple, the sign of the son of man coming, and the end of the age. Jesus answered all 3. Matter of fact, he even said that the apostles would die in the beginning, then described the temple being destroyed as they asked, then went into the sign of his coming and then said nobody knows the day of the end of the age, not even angels.
3 questions, 3 answers. That whole conversation wasn't all about 70 AD, that was only the beginning.
Now brother, lets see the times were in, end time dreams rampant, we know that revelation was supposed to be the worst time to ever been, and to be. Lets see if we had anything worse then what happened in 70 AD. Nations falling away from Christ, Islam is growing rapidly. Atheism is growing rapidly. Both at their biggest. Christianity is the most mocked religion. Filled with mostly luke warm, deceived christians who just go to mega churchs/prosperity preachers, they go for a show, not for the Lord and thats those who even go to church, imagine if Paul saw this, he probably does from heaven right now..
We had WW1 AND WW2 in the span of the last 100 years. We’re on the brink of WW3 right now. During the world wars 6 MILLION jews got hunted, gassed and burned. Christian’s are getting beheaded in the middle east by muslims. Just because you or me dont see that kind of persecution in our neighborhoods, doesn’t mean it’s not there. Look at China. Theyre changing the bibles, making Jesus, Yeshua a murderer. People there are BLESSED, to have a normal bible and have to fellowship in secret. Hundreds of thousands of abortions per year from the west alone. CLINICS, specifically built for it. People glorifying themselves over it. We’re on the brink of transhumanaterianism with not only AI but the mixing and messing with dna and mixing with technology. First neurolink BRAIN implant happened a month ago, WEF comities which consist of the worlds presidents and the most richest and powerful people saying they can finally “ HACK the human genetic code “ Israel just became a nation again in 1948 after 2400 years of being scattered.
Are you saying that the events in 70 AD, supposed revelation ( worst time in human history to ever been or to be ) is worse then black death that wiped out 1/3 of europe in 1300? Or WW2 that had over 12 MILLION casualties. 6 MILLION Jews GASSED. 9 MILLION russians starved by their own leader. NUCLEAR BOMBS, wiping out entire cities off the map. TENS of thousands of casualties in a blink of an eye. Islam growing rampant and took over like a swarm of locusts. Name me a time in history where the CHURCH, US, Have been more divided then TODAY. How many denominations? HOW MANY GOSPELS? HOW MANY VERSIONS OF JESUS? HOW MANY DOCTRINES?! Kids in africa STARVING, kids outside in your city STARVING, CHILDREN being molested and trafficked around the world RIGHT NOW, there is a literal MARKET for it as you read this. Look at the mocking satanism in ALL MEDIA. The Media you CANT ESCAPE, because it’s SO deeply engraved into peoples lives. Movies, shows, music, work, ads, societal norms, trends, and were only heading deeper into it. Until 7 months ago when i was saved and born again i though i was Christian but i didn’t even know who JESUS, YESHUA, was. That’s majority of Christian’s. Christian’s by their family, yet they don’t know what Christianity is, what Jesus truly did for us, that he TRULLY rose again. There is more deception NOW then ever before in human history EVER. Back then you could live in your city and never hear about any other god then what your city believes in. Now?! Hundreds of false religions who all have just enough stolen truth that people can be deceived, all in your palm for easy access via device thats pretty much magic, that you rely on so heavily. Even worse, now it’s normalized to say that there is no God at ALL. That has never ever happened ever in all of humanity. Somebody has always been believed in something, divinity was always recognized. This is a NEW religion of self.
Revelation doesn’t only depicts things in Israel, although that’s the centre piece, it also depicts world events.
Today the government has the power to freeze your bank account and you’re done. During covid, how EASILY, did…what was it? 85 or 90% of canadian get vaccinated under threat of JUST not being able to go to the store or to work/school? How easily was the world tricked? What’s gonna happen when they threaten our lives alongside not being able to buy or sell? 95% of the world? 99%? How many will fold?!
Cmon..you cannot tell me that 70 AD was the worst time in human history. It was awful. Very awful. But let those people see hiroshima, let their eyes watch 140 thousand people get vaporized instantly. Let them see the tzar bomba get dropped that shook the entire earth. Let them see the state of Christianity now, Let PAUL see the churches of today. Yes the deaths might not be as brutal. At least what you see. Again, look to the middle east, all the atrocities are there. But death isn’t the only kind of persecution, hatred and tribulation. You might die the same day that you go and preach on the streets that you’re a Christian in islamic countries in the middle east, and get beheaded out in the desert.
Yes the Lord comforted the people of 70 AD. I can’t explain to you why revelation is written to us other then maybe it’s double fulfilment like a lot of other things in the bible seem to be ( but we won’t know until it happens. )
So i don’t know if revelation is about to unfold, or if it’s unfolding and has been for the last 2000 years. But it cannot be finished by logic. Rev 20-22.
Not to mention how bad times are now and 90% of what i mentioned is from the last 100 years ALONE.
I get it you think we’re asleep thinking that only the Lord can put at end to it. But we’re saying that end is coming now.
Israel became a nation in 1948 after 2400 years. We got the technology for mark of the beast. We got the power for one world government, we got the timeline. 2030-2033 is 2000 years since Jesus. 1000 years is like a day for the Lord ( 2 Peter 3:8 ) . 2 days since Jesus, entering 3rd day, 3rd day of resurrection. Hosea 6, ( on the third day we will be in his sight, yes it’s about Jesus but could this be double fulfillment? ) 6000 years since adam in 2030-2033, 3rd day of resurrection and 7th day of rest at the same time. When else in history would this be possible? Never before and never again.
Consider this.
Impressive that you continue to respond to comments on this 4 year old video. Enjoyed it very much! Would you consider an update? This topic is exploding. Great time to ring in with your more refined innerstanding!
I will do soon. Thanks for the encouragement. I'm moving this week and will set up a wee studio and editing space for a new and more polished series on preterism
Although I may be a year late but made a prayer to God about this topic if He would make it clear to me. Thanks to God for directing me to your video. May God of our Lord Jesus bless you
If Satan was bound for this 1000 year period, how was he able to enter Judas? Luke 22:3 "Then Satan entered Judas, called Iscariot, one of the Twelve." This verse alone puts an end to this theory. Satan was pretty much out there not bound at all. Your prayer remains unanswered.
He entered Judas before he was crucified. You must have missed that bit. It all went wrong for the Satan after that.
@jouc12_75 Satan was bound from deceiving the Nations. The Gospel went out to the whole known world according to Paul before 70 ad. We like to add many things to the binding, yet the Word tells us exactly what he was bound from doing.
I am very late to this party but WOW. I am captivated. THANK YOU so much for making it make sense!
Here's a list to copy & save!
Do you believe in the Bible? Are you SURE?"
(Imminence verses)
(65-68ad) Rev 1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must SHORTLY COME to PASS; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:
Rev 22 10 Then he told me, "Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this scroll, BECAUSE the TIME is NEAR!
Matthew 16:28 Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom."
"You shall not finish going through the cities of Israel, until the Son of Man comes." (Matt. 10:23)
"From now on, you [Caiaphas, the chief priests, the scribes, the elders, the whole Sanhedrin] shall be seeing the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven." (Matt. 26:64
Jesus said "Truly I tell you, this GENERATION will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened."[ Matt 24:24]
AD 49 Paul wrote "The fullness of time was come" [Gal 4:4]
AD 57 Paul wrote -"Time is short" [1 Cor. 7:29]....."The world in its present form is passing away" [1 Cor. 7:31]
AD 58 Paul wrote -"Understand the present time: ...because our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed. The night is nearly over; the day is almost here" [Rom 13:11-12]
AD 58 Paul wrote - "The God of peace will SOON (shortly) crush Satan under your feet" [Rom 16:20]
AD 60 James wrote - "be patient and stand firm, because the LORD'S COMING is NEAR (at hand)...The judge is standing at the door!" [James 5:8-9]
AD 65 The writer of Hebrews wrote - "but in THESE LAST DAYS he (God) has spoken to us by his Son...." [Heb 1:2]
AD 65 The writer of Hebrews wrote - "In just a very very little while, ' He who is coming will come and will NOT DELAY....'" [Heb 10:37]; "as you see the DAY approaching" [Heb 10:25]
AD 65-67 - Peter wrote "The end of all things is AT HAND." [1 Peter 4:7]
AD 65-67 - Peter wrote "For it is time for judgment to begin with the house of God..." [1 Pet. 4:17]
AD 67-68 - John wrote "Little children, this IS the last hour... it IS the last hour" [1 John 2:18]
In 66.5-70ad (3.5 years) (Luke 21:20) Rome surrounded Jerusalem for God's promised judgment.
These verses are not about an approaching 2nd coming in the first cetury. The full preterists want you to believe the 2nd coming already happened. Don't you believe that for a second. The verses listed are referring to the coming judgement against Jerusalem and Israel as echoed in the 7 woe oracles of Matt.23!!!!! Thats all.
@@davidwoods6015 he's not saying he believes in full preterism. 🙄
Many of the quotes here are out of context and do not refer to 70AD and the judgement upon Israel. It reminds of the verses which prosperity teachers take out of context and twist to fit their belief.
Example 1 Peter 4:17 is concerning trials and tribulations in the flesh of the believers as a form of judgement and which is just as true now in us; better to be judged now as sons who are disciplined than to fall into the judgement of God at the completion of all things.
He was not taking about satan being bound at that point. Jesus was saying that the devil can not cast out the devil. Proving his point that he is not using demonic powers to cast out spirits. You have to read the full text in content to understand that analogy.
“And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand. And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house.”
Mark 3:24-27 KJV
It's not a question of "this or that" for me. It is both what you are staying and the fact Satan was indeed bound.
You speak of fuller context but deny the first century context despite the clear and express intent of Jesus' words, Matthew 10:23; 16:27,28; John 4:21-24; Luke 21:22; then 1 Jn 2:18; 1 Peter 4:7, Hebrews 10:37, which in light of Luke 21:8 would make them all false prophets. And, there's over a hundred such verses which I speak about in my 101 reasons to be a preterist video.
@@Willzyx88 Looks like he got out in Revelation 12, then but was bound in Revleatiion 20 again.) I don't deny that demons WERE clearly being bound, as the demons seemed to fear as much in Luke 8:31) but there are demons still running amok today.
@@littlefoot5013 "Satan" is bound, not demons. The unbelieving Jewish leadership were the "satan." Satan merely means adversary. Anyone can be an adversary. The word "satan" is not a person or being. It can be, but it just means adversary. Who were against the Jesus and his disciples? Read Matt. 23. On those leaders, not anyone in the future.
@@fullpreteristnow yeah, satan does just mean adversary, except it's very rare for it being used I it's noun form to mean anything other than lucifer.
Revelation even defines it as such
"That old serpent who is the dragon, and satan"
If satan gets used In a context where it is basically an adjective at a particular person, or people then you can make a case for it meaning that they are just being called and adversary. But If it isn't explicitly being used that way, and is just a noun standing on its own, then no. You don't just get to apply it to whomever you want.
@littlefoot5013 Revelation 20 is a summary of what has already happened or will shortly happened.
I just wish someone could tell me what happened from 500AD-1500AD if its literal why is nothing know of the Dark Ages. Maybe the controllers are hiding that.
There is more and more evidence coming to light that the millennial kingdom has already passed and it indeed took place during the "dark ages".
If you start researching into Tartaria and looking at all the beautiful and impossible architecture that was built and then systematically destroyed or buried, then followed by falsified history- everything begins to make sense
I am in the same belief, the 1000 year reign did indeed happen. Satan is loosed again for a short time now
@@fullarmordiscernment2842 yes there is so much evidence that we are in Satan's little season
The evil one flips all things. So if they are called the dark ages they were literally the LIGHT AGES.. all things are inverted…
@@fullarmordiscernment2842 Like what?
Revelation aligns perfectly with Daniel, Ezekiel, and Isaiah
The author has copies of all 3 so it better!
I have the perspective that there are two events. The first event is Jesus coming in the clouds with a vengeance. The second event is as Jesus describes the resurrection at the last day. All his parables about the kingdom of heaven lead me to believe that there is a last day on this earth. This would be the finality and conclusion of this present age where we enter into eternity I would agree with everything you say for what Jesus speaks about the last day in his parables of the kingdom of heaven. I’m looking forward to a new heaven and new earth.
Christendom along with Scientism have built their cleaverly devised fables on foundations of precepts.
All the while misleading the unsuspecting...Thank you for you insights ❤
Just beautiful truth, It makes me wonder how God feels after doing this marvelous work and people not taking the time to see it. I don't think you need to clean the video up. thanks
Good Job bro… I’m new to PRETERISM about a year ago. 🙏🙏🙏
This was 4 years ago? You were ahead of your time my brother in Christ. Great video.
In Luke 22:3 and John 13:27 it says that 'Satan entered Judas, called Iscariot'; Therefore Satan was still active right up until the trial of JESUS. Therefore I would suggest that Satan was not bound in Matthew 12.
Notice no reply🤔
@@T.D.H.Miller-pp6sf ...Yes...I was hoping for one...however, I did watch the video again. I understand Willy's point better. He is suggesting it seems that the 'binding' was symbolic of a fulfillment of time for Christ to complete His work. God bless you all brothers & sisters!
@@ajw9377 ...Thanks for the reply. I did watch the video again and I understand Willy's point better this time. That said, our faith & love (as You mentioned) are far more important. Thanks to Willy and all brothers & sisters! Grace & Peace.
Judias wasn’t an Israelite, but an Edomite Jew that’s why he was the betrayer. Just like the Jews of today are not Israelites and hate Jesus. Israelites were a minority in that time most of the people were mixed and of the people God commanded the Israelites to destroy in Joshua. That’s why In John 8 Jesus says they are of their father the devil. Not his sheep.
Learning about the way the ANE used numbers is so interesting. I think the long ages in Genesis are also qualitative rather than quantitative (as is used with the ages for kings in that time and culture). It’s interesting that the first Adam was said to live 930 years… just shy of the ideal “thousand.” And I believe the second Adam’s 70 years (~from birth to return), is a beautiful picture of redemption and completion to bring eternal life.
Greetings Willy...thanks for the great video. A few years ago, I decided to dig in and settle the eschatological issue and found myself a full preterist. Coming from a pre-millennial position, I had to review almost every aspect of my Christian faith because the great amount of error I had received. It was a great challenge, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was almost like getting saved again, because a veil was lifted from my faith and my bible. I think the biggest mistake that people make on the more difficult subjects in eschatology is to build intellectual ideologies, creating dogma that can be found no where is scripture. This only ads to the confusion. If the "millennium" wasn't mentioned in John's Revelation, we could see the finished work of Christ more easily. He came and completed "all that was written," (Luke 21:22) fulfilling the work the Father sent Him to do. Everything points to that completion. On he things that appear more difficult, I try to avoid being dogmatic. There is one thing that I read regarding the millennium that did seem to bear some consideration. The writer noted that the martyrs that who "died" were resurrected and "they came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years."(Revelation 20:4) So, said the writer, they were possibly NOT ON EARTH, BUT WERE IN HEAVEN. I have heard of people who had been caught up into heaven for a short period of time and when they were asked what it was like, some of them said that they were there a long time in some cases,, a very long time. The martyrs could have lived in heavens's time line for a thousand years because they were in heaven. On earth, however, the time was a duration of only forty years. What I am suggesting here is the possibility of dual time lines. Again, this is only conjecture, because scripture does not comment on the millennium. Thanks again and God bless.
Thank you for sharing. I totally know what you're describing concerning the amazing clarity of our understanding being like a rebirth almost. It's an ever more highly resolving truth. You're so right about the stifling effect dogma has. We construct theoretical frameworks along the path to wisdom that serve only as obstacles. We have been blessed with this realisation and I hope the message of a present vibrant kingdom of God grows and inspires us to be our best selves.
Appreciate you checking out the vid! All the best.
The amazing thing is that we are made in the image of the living God! and we NOW have access to our Father and as we behold Him we are changed into His likeness from glory to glory!
Sorry to hear your a full preterist, you have turned your mind over to a dangerous heresy. The 2nd coming is still future.
@@davidwoods6015 Don't be sorry....I am fine. I do feel sorry for you though. Still waiting for the "imminent second coming," like many thousands over the last two millennia. I have known many of them for years...they are so sad and confused...and fearful. Ponder:
"For the Son of Man is ABOUT TO COME in the GLORY OF HIS FATHER WITH HIS ANGELS, and then he will reward each one according to his deeds. I ASSURE YOU THERE ARE SOME HERE WHO "WILL NOT DIE" UNTIL THEY SEE THE SON OF MAN COME AS KING.” Matt. 16:27,28.
Truly, truly..I tell YOU David...Yeshua kept His word to those within His hearing and some of them would still be alive when this occurred!
To the Jews who "were alive" when the letter to the Hebrews was written we read these words:
"Christ was OFFERED ONCE to bear the sins of many; and He will APPEAR A SECOND TIME, not to bear sin, but to BRING SALVATION to those who eagerly await Him.…"
"For yet a little and A VERY LITTLE WHILE, and HE THAT IS TO COME, WILL COME, AND WILL NOT DELAY." Heb. 10:37
A "very little while" is two millennia?!! If so then you have a problem friend...NO SALVATION! The Hebrews were told to expect a "second coming" that "brings salvation" in THEIR LIFE TIME!
@@davidwoods6015 Good morning, I can and do agree the 2nd coming is still future, however, would you be willing to see in scripture that the 2nd coming is also now? What I'm saying is like this Jesus IS Salvation correct? So, when did you receive his Salvation? When did Paul? And when will those yet to believe or be born receive their salvation?
What I'm suggesting is that you consider the "2nd coming" as a linear timeless event. His coming is always Now to whomsoever will believe.
Can you grasp the biblical concept that teaches us that we must FIRST BELIEVE, Then RECEIVE. Until you believe the words of Jesus (that I will show you) you cannot "see" or experience His 2nd Coming, whether or not it's future. What I'm saying is, you are "waiting" for a future physical outward coming of Jesus when you have not FIRST had a spiritual inward Revelation of His appearing.
Read, consider, think about & prayerfully ask him what is meant by these statements:
Hebrews 9:28
John 14:17, 20, 21, 23
2 Timothy 1:10
Revelation 3:20
My friend, I hope you will earnestly drink in these scriptures, not looking for a way to defend an ideology or reason them away, but consider that Jesus has come (past), is come (now) & will come forever (future).
Revelation 1:8
World without end Eph 3:21
Remember too that the Kingdom of God is by Faith (not sight).
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday and to day and for ever.
Peace & Blessings
2 Timothy 1:10
Excellent points. Thank You. That was a great observation of the martyrs in 6 and 20 the 1000 years being a little longer Thanks
It's like he's on the right track then veers off onto another track. Tartaria the Millennial Kingdom of Jesus Christ

Satan deceives the whole world.
you have inspired me so much and taught me right from wrong
Yes, the 40 year period before the destruction of the City and temple in AD70 is the millennium. The 1000 years is of course symbolic. The book of Revelation is all about symbols. The entire book has been fulfilled. Don Preston recently did a debate about this subject.
The entire book is not about symbols.
SOME of revelation I symbolic, and the rest of it isn't. There's a very cool way to tell the difference. Everything that is a symbol revelation explicitly explains is a symbol. So if it mentions something, and doesn't explicitly explain it as a symbol, then you know it isn't a symbol.
🚫 read it urself
Oh my Word. I have never heard the KJV be spoken in any accent, but American. Beautifully done.
@anopinion9830 Thank you. King James was born a mere 60 miles from my home. But I'm a fan of all the charming American accents!
Luke 21:22 is the hinge scripture for me, Christ speaking of the coming destruction of Jerusalem in 70AD said "these are the days of vengeance when ALL THAT IS WRITTEN will be fulfilled"
Absolutely. That statement and others like it about as indisputable as it can get.
Yet, Revelation and the entire New Testament where written after this statement of Christs.
I can see why you get intense with your messages. Not necessarily for this video. I have been watching videos against preterism… Jesus has opened my eyes. He is awesome!
There arguments just suck. They literally are ignoring scripture. I sent the idea to people who claim to believe, with scripture, they didn’t even bother to look into it.
Thank you for trusting in the Word, and then sharing it.
Jesus is King!
Revelation is not a linear book. It tells past, present, and future.
Nothing is ever knew, everything is in cycles, climate, fashions,people etc. Cycles of liberalism, cycles of conservativism. Seasons.
@@martinemjt The bible says, 'there is nothing new under the sun"
Yes I believe full pretrrism is the correct eschatology that is fulfilled eschatology. I didn't want to be a full preterist but can't help beliving something that keeps coming up as truth.
Glad to see it's apparently growing. 😊
I felt that too. Too many churches and expressions of Christianity hold your desire for truth hostage through shame, smears, and cancelling anyone who questions their dogmas. Their doctrines basically serve to measure heresy instead of actually caring about people and their relationships with God.

Honestly I think the eschatology of futurist could indeed bring the destruction or near destruction of the world. Not only are you right about the churches/ministers but of course the people are effected or infected as well.
Concider this, how does Voodoo /Hoodoo superstitions and witchcraft work?
(I know this seems irrelative but it is )
Thoughts and beliefs produce actions even on a subconscious level.
They foam at the mouth at the idea of rebuilding the temple the Christains seem to support Isreal the Jews good guys and the Muslims are the evil bad guys .they get excited with every disaster especially involving Isreal.
All this destruction is a joyful indication the lord is coming back.
People act as they believe so they wait in expectation for the antichrist the temple and WW3 to break out.
Well their prophesies might come true because they make them come true. 🤔

The problem with symbolism is that you can make Scripture say anything.
Agreed. Preterism requires that you "symbolize" all of God's promises into oblivion, because if they meant anything besides pure symbolism then it becomes clear as day preterism is wrong.
@@ophiuchus9071 let me just put it to you this way. Jesus didn't ask people to believe off of nothing. He literally healed people, he literally did miracles to prove he was who he said he was. Most important of all of those is the literally paid for all sin, and proved it b literally raising from the dead. And any time he spoke, or taught in parables he mentioned it explicitly. But yeah. Sure the faith is all about " the spirit guiding you, and I you can't understand these things, then obviousky his spirit isn't upon you"
Just like the OP said, symbolizing everything is just a wat for you to make the scripture comport to whatever you want it to.
1000 year reign of Jesus from Jerusalem has been anything but perfect.
Wonderful to see searchers coming to the same conclusions from all corners of the earth
Very good , i think because life is very hard the futurist view gives people hope they have this hope because of the fear they live in . But at the end of the day our time is out of our hands but our hope is in christ and our faitheads us back to christ it is our LOVE that demonstrates us walking with christ in this life and the one to come . Living without fear
If Satan is bound why did Paul write 1 Thessalonians 2:18 Wherefore we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan hindered us.
Good question. I'll answer it according to my understanding but let me pose you a question first: what if Satan wasn't bound?
If Satan, the father of lies, was not bound then it might be that the gospel message wouldn't have been as effective as it was. Paul was hindered but he wasn't shut up and made throughly unconvincing to his audiences. Instead, Paul had divine power and his audiences recognised truth.
I'll answer your question now. Jesus said that he cast out demons by the power of God and in this context describes how you'd first bind a strongman before plundering his house. Jesus here appears to suggest that the strength of Satan's influence was weakened in some way that afforded him and the disciples dominion.
There's two more points I'll make: firstly Satan means adversary, accuser, or hostile opponent. So any hindering force would come under the umbrella of Satan. It could be part of the common parlance of the time. Secondly, you'll notice Satan was bound but he wasn't gagged. So, while restricted, a bound Satan is not a defeated Satan and perhaps retained a measure of seduction
I like your passion. I followed your channel. May God Bless.
Anyone watching this from anywhere in mid uk area? I’m just craving fellowship yet know of not a single meeting for us Preterists in England and I’ve been loooking for 5 years!
I know the feeling! I think we need to start our own somehow. My issue in Scotland is the scarcity of Christians and a seeming lack of interest in such topics.
Maybe I need to move into a city to find a more vibrant community of curious believers.
Well done, brother. I really appreciate the passion! I would suggest that the 'little while' the martyred saints are told to wait (Rev. 6) is until the 1st resurrection of Rev. 20. If John is receiving and writing Revelation around 68-70AD then it is only a year or so until the martyrs are resurrected at Christ's coming in 70AD (they are not waiting through the 1000 year reign). A very little while.
Regarding the 1000 year reign; I realize this video is 4 years old now and you may have different thoughts now, but I would highly recommend you do a thorough study of the prophets. I've recently come to understand that the 1000 year reign and little while of satan's release are described extensively through the prophets, but the modern church has largely been taught to totally ignore it and/or attribute it to past events with ancient Israel. But Ezekiel 38, 39 clearly describes the same Gog/Magog event of Rev. 20, which happens AFTER the 1000 years. So Ezek. 38, 39 and Micah 4 are great places to start. Also Isaiah 2, 11 and 65. Psalm 2, Ezekiel 20, Amos, Zechariah, the end of Zephaniah - all of these and more describe the 1000 year reign when Christ is physically located and enthroned on the holy mountain, when the nations come up to where He is to pay homage and to learn the ways of righteousness and to celebrate the feast of tabernacles (Zech. 14). And they describe the little while of satan's release, culminating in the nations surrounding the camp of the saints, the fire reigning down from Heaven to destroy them, and then a final ingathering of the remnants of Israel who had been blended amongst the nations, from whom God had hid his face (Ezek. 39:29)
I have recently come to the conviction that we are in the little while of satan's release and have been living in the time when God has hidden His face from us, but when the little while culminates in the Gog/Magog event, we who know His voice (we are the dispersed remnant of the house of Israel), will remember and be called out (the greater exodus of Ezek. 20:36 and elsewhere) of the nations into the camp of the saints. I believe the 1000 year reign was a literal 1000 years (called the 'dark ages' by the present powers) that has been scrubbed from historical memory. The prophets are key to seeing this literal period, when the resurrected and glorified saints ruled the nations with Christ Himself ruling out of Mt. Zion.
The Lord bless you and keep you and make His face the shine upon you! Peace.
The resurrection is for all of Gods saints, including the ones from the first century hitherto.
@@larrybedouin2921 But do you agree that Rev. 20 clearly separates the resurrection into two events divided by a period of time referred to as 'the thousand years'?
@@greglawrence9230
Yes, when satan is bound for a thousand years. These are not literal chains that bind him, but rather chains of circumstance, for there will be no man on earth to temp and deceive for those thousand years, and then there will be the great white throne judgment of the wicked after the second resurrection of damnation.
And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto *the resurrection of life* and they that have done evil, unto *the resurrection of damnation*

And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, *both* of *the just and unjust*
{Acts 24:15}
But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished *This is the first resurrection*
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.

{Revelation 20:14}
@@larrybedouin2921 Where do you get the notion that no one will be on the Earth for a thousand years? Rev. 20:1-3 seems pretty clear that satan is bound in a specific location (bottomless pit, aka Tartarus) and his movement to that location is the reason for which he cannot deceive the nations;
And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. 2And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, 3And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.

SHAME !
Satan was given his authority and is "bound" to do only so much. In Rev 20 he is released from his "bound" state and goes out to deceive the nations. Clearly Satan influences humans today, but in the last few years/decades, Satan has inflamed every nation to persecution of the saints (the new Jerusalem) to a degree never seen before. So next up is his total destruction by God himself.
When a martyr is at rest, it’s a similar euphemism as being asleep. They were to rest (remain in hades, asleep, dead) a little while longer before their resurrection (first resurrection) to reign with Christ during the millennium. This avenging of justice was swift in its coming…70 AD was the end of the Jewish age.
I have thought similarly about it being such a euphemism. Thanks for sharing.
Also worth noting is the crowns given to the martyrs. (Revelation 20) Crowns are indicative of ruling. Interesting how the Apostle Paul knew he’d be part of the all-inclusive 2nd resurrection; but wasn’t sure if he’d be part of the first one (reserved for the martyrs) until writing to Timothy at the end of his life that he’d finished his course and would receive the CROWN of righteousness.

Note in Revelation 20:4 the millennium reign takes place BEFORE Satan is loosed.
“And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be FULFILLED: and AFTER that he must be loosed a little season.”

In the preterist view, when does Revelation 21:2 take place? "And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God."
@@Mike-qt7jp 30th August 70 AD.
That's when it happened. The next question is how it happened. Jesus told us he would come with his kingdom. Jesus told us this would not be visible to human eyes. It does not come with observation that you will say "look here" or "there is it!". The kingdom is within. It is within that resurrection takes place. Within doesn't mean in the thorax either. It's a metaphysical condition of restored relationship with God.
If satan was bound during Christ’s ministry, how was he able to tempt Christ in the wilderness?

As a Sassenach I was raised in the knowledge that the principal difference between a Scotsman and an Irishman is that when the Romans invaded the Scots could run but the Irish could swim.
That said, although I was conceived in England I was born in Amman, Jordan. After serving Her Majesty for 12 years I fled (swam and ran) to the Pacific North West where I have lived for the past 37 years and, much to my surprise, raised five Yanks.
Thanks for this touch of, ‘Scottish Common Sense Realism’. You’re a canny bunch alright, and that bit of wild Irish poet ‘gets’ Hebraic symbolism. Thankfully, I believe we are in a “new heaven and a new earth” so all of this nationalistic representation is swallowed up in the Oneness of the Father and Son without jealousy or defensiveness. Now, by the grace of God we walk in the realization and can enjoy the multifarious uniqueness of unity, but not uniformity, found in His expression through us, those who are made in God’s image.
In closing, though I have yet to stray north of Hadrian’s wall, I was christened with the names of Kenneth and Charles by a father who was born in Calcutta, India, and a mother born in Manchester and raised in Fleetwood. I am married to a lady whose grandfather was a Brady, a dirt poor immigrant onion farmer who escaped from Indiana during the depression. This dispersion thing has gotten out of hand!

They understand Hebraic concepts because they're of the 10 "Lost" Tribes of Israel.
The Celts were "Hibiri" which is Hebrew.
That's part of their grand deception that they teach us that we are "just Gentiles" when the Tribe of Dan is directly Israel.

This notion has been around on utube for quite sometime. Utube never recommended it to me.
It makes perfect sense. Soon means soon. Jesus didnt offer a generation a false hope just to give it to another future generation 2000 years in the future.
A lot of my positions gained over the years are now lost. As frustrating as that is. Its better to let them go and align myself correctly. Soon means soon.
That's what I went through as well. You think "ahhhh... really?!". It's disappointing that this wasn't discussed sooner but this is the information age. People were illiterate for thousands or years and now we are communicating like never before. We are blessed though. Blessed with a desire for truth regardless of where it leads us. Thankfully, it often correlates with good things. I think that's by design.
This sounds right. I feel like I should suggest something, though. A lot of people in the USA (and elsewhere) are getting Rapture dreams. I myself have had some dreams resembling a Rapture event, but other times are skewed toward an Ezekiel/Jeremiah/Lamentations-style of judgment period upon many countries. I would be remiss to dismiss these dreams of mine and others. Perhaps GOD simply gives us dreams with imagery that we understand, even though it's not completely accurate. But, I do believe something has been in the works, is building up, and GOD has been warning His people. Have you noticed anything of this sort? May GOD bless you and your family, in Jesus's name.
I think you've come to a very sound conclusion. It's not completely outlandish to imagine that America might erupted into disorder in some places and to varying degrees. Always good to be prepared. I've heard a couple of people share the belief that some kind of civil war will take place in Americas future. It won't last too long and people will ultimately reunite. But, who knows? It is only a possibility.
There is a bit of a culture of end times rapture predictions in certain American circles, so that could explain some of it: the ideas expressing themselves in the subconscious mind.
I will think about it more tho
@@Willzyx88 - OK. A thing I should add is that I was a staunch atheist for over 20 years, until February 2019 when I had an audible experience. I kind of believed as a kid, but I was raised by a family that mostly went to church as a matter of social norm. The church I went to did not preach Rapture. In fact, it's one of those very liberal churches that made a point to have a lesbian be its "presiding bishop." (I don't hate homosexuals, nor am I opposed to women in ministry. I'm just saying the motivation my former church had was about making modern statements, not focussing on Christ.) So, I didn't have any preconception about this stuff before my audible experience. One of the things He said to me was, "Something bad is coming." Among other things, I was drawn to read those chapters in Ezekiel for clarification (namely chapter 38). I think it's more than just civil unrest, although I do live in Minnesota (where the high profile police shooting trial just took place and another is about to happen). Meanwhile, the USA has had an uptick in earthquakes and might be forced into three different wars shortly: Russia/Ukraine, China/neighbors, and Israel/Iran. Honestly, I think we're going to be nuked, and I think I'm going to go with it...

@@michaelnapper4565 Read 2 Peter brother..
bro the answer is they lied about history and dates
Willy, Doesn’t Satan enter Judas the evening before the crucifixion? Didn’t Jesus tell Peter that Satan wanted to sift him as wheat? Bound? Just sayin’.
Satan was said to be bound in regards to deceiving the nations. Here is the verse :
Revelation 20 : 2 - 3 "He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, *to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended.* After that, he must be set free for a short time."
So during the thousand years the apostles preached the gospel to all the nations. Here are some verses that support this :
Colossians 1 : 6 " . . . In the same way, the gospel is bearing fruit and growing throughout the whole world . . ."
Colossians 1 : 23 " . . . This is the gospel that you heard and that has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven, . . . "
Romans 1 : 8 "First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being reported all over the world."
Romans 10 : 17 - 18 "Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ. But I ask: Did they not hear? Of course they did:
“Their voice has gone out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.”
When the apostles were obeying the command of Jesus to make disciples of all the nations Jesus made sure the devil would not be able to deceive the nations in order for the efforts of the apostles to be successful.
Yes, Christians need to wake up. This is our planet, Gods planet. High time we clean house.
In Revelation 20, should we take one thousand years literal?, the answer is no. The other books in the Bible has it not being literal. We need to read scripture in the light of scripture.
Psalm 50:10 For every beast of the forest is mine, And the cattle upon a thousand hills.
Does God own the cows on a 1000 hills only? Dose he not own the cows in the valley too?
Deuteronomy 5:10 -but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments. Dose this mean that the 1001st generation will not be loved by God? The answer is no.
Psalm 105:8- He remembers his covenant forever, the promise he made, for a thousand generations. Does this mean the 1001st generation are cut off? The answer is no.
Thousand means a number that no one can count.
The way I see it, numbers are literal. The coins show 1000 years are added to our timeline.like i600 became 1600.
Bad example to disprove 1000 is not a 1000.
Both situations are different and cannot be used as a comparison.
The Lake of Fire is symbolic, it is also called the Lake of Divine Purification, and we are in this Lake right now.
Satan literally tempted Jesus himself, and possessed Judas, pretty active for being bound…
See the pinned comment. The linked video directly addresses this point.
Have you ever tried to fit what you’re saying into the Enochian timeline as laid out beginning in Enoch chapter 93?
I’m pretty well convinced that Revelation has pretty much taken place but I believe the enemy is trying to convince believers that we are going into that time now.
I asked myself what advantage is this to the enemy and I believe it’s so that people don’t fight back against the evil of our time and we don’t pray against satanic elements of our age because we think it’s scripture and it just has to be this way. I think of Daniel chapter 7 verse 18 and verses 21+22 where it seems to indicate that the saints are standing up to the beasts where as Jesus, in his time told his people,” if they persecute you in one city flee to the next, you shall not have gone over the cities of Judaea before the Son of Man be come”.
Also, the book of Esdras says that Jesus reign is 400 years. There’s much to be factored in from the apocryphal books and I believe that’s why they’ve been rediscovered.
You might be interested in Ken Johnson’s work on the Dead Sea scrolls if you haven’t already checked it out.
I have tried to fit events into that Enochian timeline but that was before I came to understand Preterism. Would be cool looking through it again.
As I read your comment, I wonder if the terms we are comfortable speaking in would have zero currency in the world of today. Paul used the poems and icons in his midsts to communicate ideas. I think this explains the resonance of Jordan Peterson. He uses some archaic concepts but also some modern ones and brings them together so well.
Book of esdra also says Jesus is going to die again. If you believe THAT.
Self explanatory. Have discernment please...
Hi Willy. I like your enthusiasm for the Truth of Preterism. Here is a idea I'd like to run by you. It develops your idea of 40 years = total 1000, to 40 years as COMPLETION of the 1000 years from 960BC when the temple institution (combining Law & Covenant. 1Kings8.1-13) was inaugurated. Briefly in terms of explanatory power it synthesises:
1. Mosaic Law and the Covenant In and With the temple institution
2. Jesus' gave His prophecy of the temple standing in front of the institution begun in the tenth-century BC.
3. From the time of His [prophecy to its fulfillment was 40 years added to 960 = 1000 years.
4. It resolves the ending of 'present' (Greek nun...now, not past or future, the immediate present.' Thayer) heavens & earth 2Pet.7 with 'present' (Greek nun...now, not past or future, the immediate present.' Thayer) Jerusalem. Gal4.24-25
5. Jerusalem as the place of blessing and cursing, (Paradise and Hades) Jerusalem as 'the Gates of Hades.' (Curse of Law in temple, Promise of redemption in Jerusalem. Lk2.38)
6. 1000 years from 960BC lends itself to generalisation:-
A. From construction in the C.10th BC to its destruction in the C.1st the temple institution stood for 1000 years.
B. The blood of all generations from Abel were to come on that generation. Mtt12.39-42; 23.35-36; Lk21.20-33; 24.44; Acts3.18-24.
C. Abraham, who was promised a city with foundations, (Heb11.8) received that city (New Jerusalem) when the 'present' heavens and earth passed away with the temple in 70AD.
D. All of prophecy was fulfilled in that generation when jesus returned to the temple in clouds with the 'keys of Hades.' Rev1.18; 20.13-14
E. The 40 year [a-millennium] was the period the completed the TOTAL 1000 year existence of the temple.

@@MorrisonLee-wt2jp Very impressive observations. I'm very thankful for this wonderful insight. I'll definitely be mulling this over for the next couple of day.
You can have all your theories figured out, but the reality still is that Jesus is standing at the door, ready to take His bride, and some will not be ready, actually most.
I don't mean to annoy or contend but that is often a natural result of landing on--what seems to me--a firm conclusion.
Jesus said he’d be back in the 1st century.
Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.

According to my knowledge the Bible does not say that Jesus said satan is bound during Jesus's time on earth. It makes no sense. Why was He crucified if there was no evil on earth. I respect your opinion but to me it does not make sense. I tend to believe that we might be in satan's little season now.
Different perspectives. I don't think evil and Satan are inextricably linked. I think Satan can be out of the picture and humanity would still do evil. James described sin without any mention of Satan
James 1:14-15: "But each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death."
The death being separation from God, not physical. That's why Jesus was crucified. It wasn't because Satan desired it and made it happen. That's impossible. It only happened because God permitted the depravity of humanity to fulfill prophecy and symbolise something transcendental for all ages.
Also, just because Satan was bound didn't mean that adversarial spirit had zero influence. While my belief is that Satan was destroyed, I don't think that means there is no evil today or evil spirits. Their could be. Its really beyond our understanding but what I do know is that God loves us and has already established our collective reconciliation
@@Willzyx88 I hear what you are saying. That there is evil in people due to desires. But I still think that satan is ruling on earth. Why would all the celebrities show signs like 666 or horns? These signs show respect to satan. So do these people not know he is dead or do they show respect even though they know he is destroyed by God?
@johannbellingan1092 I don't know what to make of celebrities. A lot of them appear to be involved in evil antics involving abuse. Perhaps they do ritualise some kind of satanic worldly worship. I suspect Satan is like a hydra. You cut off one head and another can grow. So while authority is fully in God's hands now with Satan defeated, humanity can still consort with evil.
Great review!
Christ was King Arthur, all greats are cover ups for his deeds, brothers. It was an earthly Kingdom.We have been decived about the Chronolgy and canon of History. The archelological evidence for destruction of Rome is not found overlaping on top of eachother vertically, it's found horizontally, meaning next to eachother at the same level all covered by the same black dirt. Something of great magnitude happened at the same time, even within the same hour. pray on this. Search Proffesors Gunnar's 2016 talk. Even the secular Proffesor drops more truths than he think. The "DarkAges" was the 1000 year Reign, physically. Ghengis Khan meaning King of Kings also known as the Man of The "millenium". Was another cover up for his Reign. Search the truth. Contemporary "hisotrian" are just as clueless and throwing guesses just like evolutionary scientists, and Big bang theorists. Answer lays in the North.
You can't just pronounce "conspiracy" without offer a legitimate reason for the existence of such a conspiracy. Why would anyone construct it, how would they maintain it, and how exactly does that influence our affairs? I think you'll find that there is no tangible reason for this conspracy: there is no economic or social value to it - which tends to be the main influence in the action of elites. This just reminds me of the musing from someone suffering delusions. It makes zero sense to suggest Jesus was King Arthur, historians would not only be wrong but archetologist, geneologists, etc. It is worth ensuring you do not have mental illness.
@@Willzyx88 I'l gladly go into the logistics of it, but first I'd like to make clear that everything is up for debate, This may very well be wrong. You have to be able to think critically, you clearly can understand objective truth, as you have concluded that indeed The tribulation of the 2nd coming occurred in our past, but John's future. You already understand this, so there is no sense on discussing when, but instead what. You ask about 1. who would construct this, 2. how they would maintain it? and 3. how exactly does it influence our affairs. 1 Corinthians 3:18
First you need separate your current held beliefs put them aside, as well as your emotions in order to search for objective truth, which is the only thing that matters, because objective implies it affects all of us. Only through this will you be able to validate your emotions, and act in the inherent value you have. Do you belive that there is good and evil. if you say no then this whole explanation is already not going to do anything for you, until you contemplate that.
1. it is simple to understand, but becomes difficult when one has one foot in the world and another in the objective truth of God, which can be concluded with honest logical argumentation. A simple example to this is; Murder is wrong, why, Because the one enacting/attempting Murder is terminating with malicious intent that which God intended to continue until God's appointed desired time to recall His creation. but it was intersected or planned to be intersected by the subject intending to or preforming the act of Murder. You realize I say God's" because Being God's (belonging to God) is the only thing that gives Human life, Animal life and all forms of life Inherent value, which dictates that all are to be held at a certain standards, set by God, acknowledged by His Subjects, You and I. To say that life has value without God is purely emotional and has nothing to back it up rendering it a worthless thing to say. The only value emotions have is made valid because they are given by God and are intrinsic to God, and make whole the experience of existence, But emotions themselves do not dictate objective truth nor are they necessary to rationalize it. Which brings us back to the question asked why would anyone construct this colossal of a deception? The answer is emotions, and more specifically vengeance, out of jealousy out of self worship, over humility. You know which personality I am speaking of. This personality, this being is the spear head behind all this. But the being knows it cannot get direct vengeance on God, so it turns to those who it can, you and I, and all other forms of life, in order to attempt to hurt Him who created it. Which I infer God could very well overwrite but chooses not to, because of his established Law of Free will and logic, He cannot do that which is Illogical. so instead of erasing that which was committed it will instead be forgotten, and burnt up. But why this deception? because there is still rules this being has to abide by. It must wait for hits turn to play, and when it's turn comes up there is rules within the turn that must be followed which give it only a range of freedom to execute its lower case will. But the range of that freedom is what we men do not truly know and tend to underestimate, This being has inverted and continues to invert our understanding of our reality with clear malicious intent, Do you truly think that our understanding of our past is not on the table? To have control over someone's future and destiny with or without their consent you must first have control of where they came from, what they perceive is where they came from, because understanding where you come from, leads to understanding who you are. And it wants nothing more than to divert our destiny to an il end. That is who would construct this.
2. We underestimate what a being who knows us better than we know ourselves would be capable of, when given domain over the world once again, and the freedom to do its bidding to an extent, to which its limits we are currently unable to know. How would they maintain it, same reason a child believes that a overweight man will go down their chimney to leave presents, all in one night, and do it all over the world at that. blind faith friend, We trust it because we are told it by those whom we are suppose to trust and love. I think we'd be very surprised to see how long something can go for when no one questions it. Look around you, if you haven't realized the both phycological and spiritual matrix we have been raised under then you have contemplation to do brother. This matrix designed to keep you on the hamster wheel, confused, always anxious, sick, distracted, afraid. finding cheap fulfilment in indulgences, lust, always looking for the next high and cheap thrill. The next movie, the next game, the next event, the next relationship. numbing ourselves in the attempt to escape our own minds, but just comfortable enough to never want to change, a slow and subtle death sentence. you understand how after the 1000 year Reign, the rest of the dead lived again. and that the beast was once again loosed to deceive them. We must ask who were this dead? and what is our relationship to them? I think you can draw some good conclusions yourself if you care too. But this can only have validation because of the objective truth of scripture and any truth it does possess is explained by it
It would be foolish to ignore the plausible aspects of truth that have been allowed to survive through myth and legend. for lot of these fill in the gaps that scripture did not see required for Salvation. But non the less helps us mold the true story of our past, but that was the future of the elect of 2nd coming generation, through the perspective of those surrounding it. The man attributed to the legend Genghis Khan shares a vast amount of similarities with the King Of Kings of the Millennium Reign in scripture. Both holding the same title, both Archers, both on white horses. But prophesied to rule the nations with a rod of Iron. It would not be a stretch that this persona would be a cover up for the True Identity of this King of Kings, you can look further into it as you see fit as have I and many others have. In regards to Arthur; 1 King, 12 disciples, 12 knights. 12 Zodiac signs, you think the truth was not carved into the foundation of existence itself? (How many tribes of Israel again?) both rulers of the greatest kingdom, both known have died but never decayed. one went to paradise the other to Avalon. both set to return. still think its a stretch, you should take a good look at "Divici's" last supper. very subtle of whoever truly made that I tell you. They know, and once you know, you know💿. “When the human race learns to read the language of symbolism, a great veil will fall from the eyes of men, They shall then know truth and, more than that, they shall realize that from the beginning truth has been in the world unrecognized." - some freemason Sleekit. always with their double meanings, telling us truth but also planning for us to fall for the lie. you must think critically about everything you've ever been taught, and begin to use your real eyes to realize the lies we've been taught to belive in every subject. for example, just go research the root meaning of pharmacy. Think we can't be deceived about our past? well... very likely about the entire physicality of our world as well💿.What does a Clay seal look like? Job 38:14 you have to search brother.
The North, that is where The Great city will be, The Sacred Mountain. But we must understand that depending on where we truly are on the Time line of scripture, will decide who currently has been given physical power over the earth, Not Eternal Power Such as What God and Christ have always and will always have. But handed over physical power for a brief period of time. There are only 2 places where we can be in scripture, only 2. That is before the Millennium Kingdom or according to what I, like many others have researched, after the Millennium Kingdom. The only times We ("We" as in our contemporary generations in 2022) are on the scene, the evil one, the "prince of this world" has physical power over the earth, as little "g" god of the world. Which brings into question Who Admiral Byrd was truly welcomed by. I know logistically the North must be where this Chief of Mountains is, where the city will be, the cradle of man is, I don't think it's a coincidence the Swastika is a reoccurring symbol that has survived through countless cultures and ages prior to us, which is also the shape made by the constellations around the North Star mirroring the 4 rivers and continents. Traditions are solutions to problems we forgot, I think forgot it was a map. You can make out the swastika on the map Mercator sent to Elizabeth's Court Sorcerer Sir John Dee. Make 4 lines following the 4 rivers starting at the Mountain in the center, then encircle the top of each continent clockwise, The Native American sacred medicine wheel hides the origin of Man and the Cradle in the North within its true context each color representing one of the 4 ethnic groups of man, in correlation with the 4 types of clay, this is further acknowledged by Crazy Horse's prophecy;
“Upon suffering beyond suffering; the Red Nation shall rise again and it shall be a blessing for a sick world.
A world filled with broken promises, selfishness and separations. A world longing for light again.
I see a time of seven generations when all the colors of mankind will gather under the sacred Tree of Life and the whole Earth will become one circle again. "
@@Willzyx88 Pt.2
This being, The evil one, if had been released, would covet This sacred Mount once more from both a strategic point and of authority. This being the same Mount as Mount Olympus to the Greeks. He was able to walk this Mount before, as he had even taken our Messiah up there to show him the kingdoms of the world, I infer that he would very likely be able to take up residence once again in a nearby location, this location may very well be this underground world on the opposite end of the Mount. The occult powers have been alluding to this for many years through films and stories, such as the Golden compass (which is ripe with allusion and symbology of what may truly be going on) or The Wizard of Oz's story of following the yellow brick road to center where the "emerald glass like city" resides. Where the will of this "wizard" stems from. Very reminiscent of the glass city Byrd claims to have been welcomed into. Which brings me to contemplate what is the true identity of this "master" that spoke to him, and even mentions the "dark Ages". Interesting when you take the tradition of a jolly man that lives in the north pole, whose name when rearranged very much spells another. It is very likely that all this subtle and "innocent" stories may be very well be alluding to something bigger. Who is the wizard behind the curtain set over this current age in the world? Let's hypothesize that we are in the short season, then our attention should include the matter of this Gog and Magog, Whom the Muslims seem to have shared stories of, some even including Alexander the Great, and that of a great wall holding them back in the far fridges of the north, or even Antarctica, To which I infer the entire HBO Game of Thrones predictive programming plot was all about. Antarctica being derived from The word Artic comes from the Greek word ἀρκτικός (arktikos), "near the Bear, northern" and from the word ἄρκτος (arktos), meaning bear. The name refers either to the constellation Ursa Major, the "Great Bear". Artur, Arturius or Arcturus being the origin of the name held by the legendary King Arthur, Its Scots/Celtic root is "artos," meaning "bear," and Arthur is said to mean "strong as a bear" - in Welsh, the name specifically means "bear hero." Arthur also draws from the Roman clan name Artorius, which means noble or courageous, and the Irish word "art," which means "stone." Variations include Art, Armel, Artis, Artie, Arturo, or even Auberon, which also means "bearlike." Arcturus is also the brightest star in the northern constellation of Boötes and the brightest in the northern celestial hemisphere.. Antarctica Means "Anti-Artic" Anti-Arcturius "in opposition to Arthur". Take what you will from this, I think there may be more to it than we know at the
moment.
Psalms 75:6
“For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.”
3. It accomplished exactly what it intended to do, Hide the Truth of Christ. How many are currently waiting for a second coming? brings to question what they might get. How many won't take scripture seriously, and accuse Christ of fraud or false, where is he after 2000 years they say? Only Spiritual Kingdom some say, yet he came to earth and died in the flesh? but would not rule on earth? all leaves room for doubt, all leaves room for compromise. It all goes back to "did he really say?". We must be critical of such things.
Absolute Truth should be pursued regardless of the current understanding of the consequences it may or may not hold for us in contemporary. The enemy has left holes in its plot, And God has allowed us the grace to be able to understand them and search in them. It it is our Duty to do so, We must learn to love the truth. because the truth will set us free, because it will grant you peace. It has granted me peace. once you see it, everything falls down and you no longer fear anything in the world, or to come, this is why we must thirst for it.
All the best, I hope you see it's all with good intention, In the end the truth will be what it is.
hope that justifies the mental illness😎😉

If this is the kingdom of Chirst you can have it I will take the 1000 years riegn of Christ.
A 30 pieces of silver kinda guy.
Come on, man. The kingdom doesn't come with observation that you could say "look here!" Or "it's over there!". The kingdom is within you. It is not a geological place except than you manifest it in the here and now.
If you want things and stuff, so be it. So do I. But that's not what the kingdom is.
The things which are eternal are invisible. You know this.
Thank you for you this video. I'm looking into the Preterist theology.
Do you think the resurrection that happened at Matt 27:51 is the chosen ones that went into the city and preached until they were caught away with the lord? Also how long is a generation?
Many of the Saints rising and going into the City is an interesting one. I see it simply as a witness. I would think this had to have been those who very recently had died, like Lazarus. They came back to physical life and eventually died again, imo. We have a story of a dead mans body touching the bones of Elijah and coming back to life. How much more when the Son of God is put in a tomb! Probably all who believed Jeaus was the Messiah and had recently died were brought back to life, imo. As far as the generation, 40 years is what was established in the OT. It's not a lifespan. It's the approximate time for a new generation to come. Meaning, by the time my kids are old enough to have kids. That's a generation.
As I see it, the major problem with Preterism is this: when Jesus says, “Truly I say, this generation shall not pass away until all these things are fulfilled,” that is a literal statement and then everything else is a metaphor. But before you read the rest of this post, look in a Greek Concordance and you will see that the word “genea” that is translated as “generation” also means race or family.
From the very beginning Satan has wanted to destroy the Jews because He knew that God was using the Jews to fulfill His prophetic will. So, Satan used Hamen, Herod, Hitler and countless others including Islam to destroy the Jewish race. So, if Jesus said, “This Jewish race will not pass away (in spite of Satan’s efforts) until all prophecy will be fulfilled,” that makes more sense.
For instance, Revelation 20 says, “And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain. He seized…Satan and bound him for a thousand years…to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time.
I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony about Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years...they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him...
When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth-Gog and Magog-and to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand on the seashore. They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God’s people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them.” BUT…
In the Preterist view, Satan is NOT bound for a thousand years, the ones who were martyred for Christ did NOT come to life and, they were NOT priests of God and Christ who reigned with Christ for one thousand years. In the Preterist view, Satan did NOT gather the deceived nations (In number they are like the sand on the seashore) for battle against God’s people and evidently God did NOT literally reign fire down on them FROM Heaven and devour them.
As a Preterist, you may say these things happened, but just not in a physical sense and NOT for a thousand years. But that is NOT what scripture says.
Some will say the thousand years is NOT literally a thousand years just like when the Bible says, “God owns the cattle on a thousand hills…” it doesn’t mean He ONLY owns the cattle on a thousand hills.
Well, it didn’t say God’s wealth is LIMITED to the cattle on a thousand hills. We know, as the eternal creator of the universe, God owns EVERYTHING. So, that would be literally TRUE to say God owns the cattle on a thousand hills. He owns those thousand hills AND all other hills. BUT to say the millennial reign ONLY lasted forty years or so, does NOT allow for the verses that say, “When the thousand years are over…” OR the verses that say “we will worship with God and Christ for ONE THOUSAND years.” That would be simply NOT true. ONE THOUSAND years is NOT a metaphor for forty years in any sense of the word.
Also, Matthew 24:30-31: “Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then ALL the peoples of the earth (NOT just Jerusalem) will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory. And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, (NOT just Jerusalem) from one end of the heavens to the other."
IF this happened in the first century and ALL the peoples of the earth saw the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, I think it would be the most spectacular event in all of history and historical records around the entire world would be rife with reports of dumbfounded people in total shock at the most amazing sight ever! Notice it says ALL the people of the earth and not just those around Jerusalem. Or are you saying All the peoples of the earth is a metaphor for people around Jerusalem.
Also, Peter says, "The Day of the Lord comes as a thief, the heavens will disappear with a roar, the elements will melt in fervent heat, and the earth and all its works will be laid bare. Sorry, this did NOT happen in the first century Jerusalem.
Again, the Bible says, “ALL the peoples of the earth (NOT just Jerusalem) will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds... And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, (NOT just Jerusalem) from one end of the heavens to the other.”
Jesus also said, " For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now-and never to be equaled again." Whatever happened in the first century was NOT the greatest distress the world has ever been in. If this ONLY happened in and near Jerusalem, how does that surpass the death and destruction experienced in WW1, WW2, Nazi Germany’s horrible torturous murder of 6 million Jews and 6 million non-Jew as well.
Then Jesus said, “Immediately after the distress of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.” This did not happen in the first century.
It just seems to me, that Preterism takes a misunderstanding of the word “Genea” (generation instead of race) and makes EVERYTHING else to be some metaphor that doesn’t even make sense metaphorically.
Thanks for the thoughtful comment. I think that the ultimate strength of preterism is in the promises made and the time statements. I think the flaw of futurism is the Hellenized perspective/ultra-literal.
Take for example, the sun darkened, moon not giving light, stars falling from the sky.
This is an allusion to Genesis 37:9-10,
"Then he dreamed still another dream and told it to his brothers, and said, 'Look, I have dreamed another dream. And this time, the sun, the moon, and the eleven stars bowed down to me.'
So he told it to his father and his brothers; and his father rebuked him and said to him, 'What is this dream that you have dreamed? Shall your mother and I and your brothers indeed come to bow down to the earth before you?'
Now you understand we are not talking about celestial bodies.
Do you see the problem? And it's not just Matthew 24:29-31 you're unable to make sense of, it's the whole bible because you're being hyper-literal and the only consequence of that is total disorientation.
One Thousand years :-
970BC -- King David died
30AD -- Christ Crucified
Not only that.
Adam's age: 930; Christ ushers in the new covenant: 70AD
First Adam: 930 years
Second Adam: 70 years.
1000 years.
When talking to dispensational, premillennial mindset Christians about Preterism, they think you are heretical in your logic. I believe Preterism makes the most reasonable sense. Notwithstanding, how can any Christian judge another believer having a different eschatological position (let's say Preterist) and yet the Preterist believer continues to love the Lord, be Christ-honoring, and a genuine moral agent. In the overall Christian community, because believers have a tendency to become so traditional in their faith communities, they fail to have open minds to what Scripture often teaches.
There is a problem with conditioned tribalism within the sects of Christianity. They guard their doctrines because that's their unique selling point. If they lose their USP, they fear forfeiting their social and financial capital. It's a materialistic hunger for actual bread. Not spiritual bread, but Pepperidge Farm (US) or Hovis (UK). Haha. Unfortunately, it makes the whole enterprise of discussing these things ugly. But I'm trying to cultivate a space online where we can have these discussions in a nice way. I think our manner is so important.
Right now, I'm creating a series on explaining the 1000-Yr Reign. I'm hoping to build enough momentum to really reach across aisles, interdenominationally and internationally. I'm not a scholar of the Bible but I have a background in sociology and psychology which helps in these discussions. Sometimes. 😄
Thanks for commenting.
So I just wanted to throw all of this out there, because “preterist” take some parts of the Bible literal, and the rest allegorical. Which is how they make all this fit into their time frame.
1st. The book of Revelation was written by John, on the island of Patmos during the reign of Roman Emperor Domitian, between 81 and 96 A.D. All recorded by Rome and the Jews, it was written in 95 A.D. that being said, I don’t know HOW y’all would pull anything from Revelation before 70 A.D.!?
2. We are told SPECIFICALLY in the Word what a 1000 years is to be interpreted as,
2 Peter 3:8* but beloved be not IGNORANT of this 1 thing* that with the Lord 1 day is as a 1,000 years, as a 1,000 years is to 1 day. Very specific and in order for a reason.
Genesis 1 is creation in days to the Lord, 1,000s of years to creation. Genesis 2 this is the DAY the Lord God made the heaven(s) and earth in (1) day!! Very specific, it would have been 1 day to the Lord but a 1,000 years to Adam. *side note* Adam was told he would die in the DAY he ate if the fruit. He lived 930 years, so less then a 1,000 to man, and still 1 day to the Lord!
Psalm 90:4 a 1,000 years are but yesterday to the Lord!
So the 1,000 year millennial reign is a literal 1,000 years. Not allegory.
A lot of Matthew that yall use is “future prophecies that have not happened yet. Satan is most definitely not bound yet!? 😳 if he were bound then why is death and sin still abounding? If the millennial reign has already happened then why aren’t they thrown into the lake of fire yet? You realize Satans let out of the chains after a 1,000 years and then DESTROYED in the lake of fire! So why is “death” still happening right now if all of that’s passed? 🤔 doesn’t even make since.
Ecclesiastes 1:9 the thing that HAS been, is that which SHALL BE, and THAT which is done is THAT which shall be done! Past, present, FUTURE tense. There are things that haven’t even played out yet! Brother I pray that you get away from that indoctrination and start asking the Holy Spirit for these answers and stop relying on what “men” have indoctrinated you with!
2Ti 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, RIGHTLY DIVIDING the word of truth.
2Ti 2:16 But shun PROFANE and VAIN babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
2Ti 2:17 And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus(means opposer of Christianity) and Philetus(op of Christianity)
2Ti 2:18 Who CONCERNING THE TRUTH have ERRED, saying that the resurrection is PAST already; and overthrow the faith of some. That’s from Pauls mouth brother, meaning they were already dealing with the “preterist” view back then in those days. Paul and Peter both talk about “waiting on the day of the Lord” but that all these “prophesies” must come to pass FIRST as Yeshua himself said. Just throwing some different eschatology out there for ya!👍🏼 in Yeshuas mighty name I pray you receive it!
Never have I heard something called "indisputable" that was anywhere close to indisputable. Everything is disputable.
The time statements are what make it indisputable to me due to their emphasis on imminency. For me, that's the framework: a period from 30-70AD. So, I reason that 30-66AD is a good fit. Although, there is definitely room for disputing the details.

I think that we are in the time of revealing. The Bible states that the Saints will rule and reign for 1,000 years.
As of me thank you Jesus Christ ❤❤❤❤
How is satan bound if he tempted him in the desert after his baptism?
That testing was necessary. The binding wasn't in effect until Matt 12:29 and Luke 10:18. This binding doesn't stop all sin as James emphasised in James 1:14-15. The purpose of the binding is told, to permit the preaching of the gospel which Paul tells us was completed in his lifetime in various places.
@@Willzyx88 I have to look into that, new to preterism. So do you think that we can't sin any longer? I'm a flat earther and conspiracy theorist I'm leaning closer to partial preterism just because i look around and all these freemasons and illuminati stuff going around like the fake covid stuff. Idk looks like satan is currently loose.
@Lauren Cox Amen and amen! Jesus said, "it is finished" period end of story.
@@dochollywood79 im a Biblical cosmologist too (fer) and this video like many other similar videos is fundamentally flawed. if you want me to explain just post here
@@heydude7568 - Yes, please explain. Yours is pretty much a worthless statement to make *without* an explanation. For instance, I could say, "You haven't a clue," which really wouldn't tell you much, would it, other than I disagree with your conclusion? With all of this space to publish ideas, why would anyone suppose a sentence or two should be a reasonable limit? As if an online forum is the equivalent of a bumper sticker? I don't think so.
I'm sorry to post again. But Paul said the Devil roams about as a lion seeking whom he may devour. Roaming is not descriptive of being bound. I' not trying to be an annoyance. These are the things that quickly come to mind as you give the presentation for what they are worth good or bad. Love your passion!
@Disciple888 He also says that the devil actively blinds people from the gospel. I've pinned a comment where I share a video that deals with these refutations. There might be more in that you find insightful.
I'll share a fresh idea here though.
To provoke some thought, Paul said the devil would be crushed soon. That was written around 57-58AD. This indicates the demise of Satan was fairly imminent.
The verse you're referring to is 1 Peter 5:8, so it was actually Peter. I mix up my Peters and Pauls too but here's the significance of it being Peter. He is commonly said to have been martyred under Nero's reign.
That means 1st Peter was written in the late 60s, which is when Satan would be loosed.
So that actually works for my proposition. I think Paul was said to have been martyred along with Peter by Nero too.
@@Willzyx88 yeah Peter that’s right.
Thanks!
He’s bound when we bind him in the name of Jesus on a case by case basis. I was demon possessed 1978 and the Lord set me free. He’s a defeated foe to those who believe.
I find Jesus teaching gives spiritual answers to physical and or carnal problems. I’m not a fan of The Zionist regime and don’t believe it will last much longer. It will disappear. This will hurt a lot of the faithful and some will leave the faith. That is exactly what the Zionist goal is to destroy Christianity.
@@Willzyx88 At least some Amillennialists believe that the Christians who have died are ruling with Christ from Heaven. This takes place during the time between Christ’s First and Second Comings. They believe Satan is bound. Here is a major problem with that; If we just take a simple look at the world today it certainly does not appear that Satan is bound (so as not to deceive the nations) and Christ is ruling and reigning. If Satan is bound during the Church Age as per Amillennial doctrine, then why does scripture call him the god of this world? Also, if Satan was bound and Christ was reigning, do we really think we would have over a billion Muslims, who view Jesus as a prophet right below Mohamad, a billion Buddhists, who believe Jesus was an enlightened person, a billion Hindus, who believe Jesus studied yoga and became a guru to the Jews, a billion Catholics who are entrusting their souls to Mary at the hour of their death, nearly a billion atheists, the LGBTQ running rampant, TV shows and movies, that continually blaspheme God and His Christ, drinking, drugs, human trafficking, and colleges that have become propaganda mills that promote Godless, Big-bang theology and Darwinian Evolution, and a host of other sinful deeds that will be eliminated during the reign of Jesus Christ, our Holy God. This is a good example of eisegesis; reading pre-conceived ideas into the text, rather than simply reading what the text is clearly stating. Also, with Christ ruling from Heaven, why does 2nd Timothy 3:1-13 say, "But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God."
@Willzyx88 it's very important to remember and teach
Everlasting life is giving by God through belief in the scriptures,,
Do you believe Father sent his Son,
These 4 things are evidence
1 Everlasting gospel
2 Everlasting dominion
3 Everlasting life
4 Everlasting righteousness
= EVERLASTING EVANGELISM !!
UNTO ALL GENERATIONS !!
WITHOUT END !!
THROUGHOUT ALL AGES !!
Good stuff!
For the record you can believe you’re in the millennium without being a full preterist- in fact that’s the earliest view of Revelation
There is an alternative view, sometimes referred to as partial preterism. We agree that the Revelation was written to seven churches in Asia, in signs or symbols of events that would begin to take place in the first century. We would agree that this message of Christ to John, to deliver to these seven churches, is a message of hope, in that it demonstrates the defeat of all enemies of Christ and His church. These enemies were empowered by Satan. The first enemy, the harlot, or Old Jerusalem was defeated in 70 AD as retribution for spiritual adultery of the Jews, "We have no king but Caesar, crucify Him, let this man's blood be on us and on our children." The harlot was destroyed by the beast whose back she rode, but who hated her. The beast, which was the Roman Empire with its forced worship of its Caesar as God, was the next enemy to be destroyed. The rider of the white horse, Christ eventually defeated Rome with the gospel message, the sword of the Spirit coming from His mouth, and then against all odds and after much persecution, by the 4th century Christianity had become the national religion of the Roman Empire. The final enemy yet to be destroyed is Satan himself, who had empowered the previous enemies of Christ. The Holy Spirit in His revelation of truth separates the defeat of the first two enemies (harlot, Old Jerusalem/beast, Roman Empire) from the defeat of Satan by a minimum of 1,000 years. The millennium itself is symbolic, representing a greater period of time than 1,000 years, and thus, it is still happening, and has been happening since the collapse of the Roman system of forced Emperor worship and triumph of the church over the Roman Empire. Satan then rallies his allies once again at the very end of all things, and attempts to turns the world against Christianity, in order to finally wipe it out, but just before he is successful, Christ intervenes and ends all things. Satan is destroyed, all humanity is resurrected for the final judgment, and after this, eternity begins for all.
Thanks for sharing. I think the partial preterist view is a good perspective but I'm quite grounded in my full blown preterism haha But I'll always keep an open mind
The Kingdom of God and the Lamb ca e with the resurrection
What if Satan’s power was limited from 970 BC, from the beginning of the building of the 1st temple … perhaps why the Jews were complaining to Peter that “since the fathers fell asleep, nothing has happened” … but Peter says God is not slack … then almost immediately the tribulation begins around AD 63/64 …
Fascinating point. Definitely opens up a discussion. I'll try to explore that point in a live stream once I get some good software to run a proper one.
September 2024. South Africa
@@hennievanaarde4877 South Africa knows about tribulation
Good stuff, man! I agree 100% However... I need to know what horror film you're talking about though :) Is it Evil Dead?
Great video my family scott irish
Thanks for viewing and commenting. I used to think I was 100% Scottish but recently discovered from a DNA test I'm 48% Irish.
There's a school of philosophy called 'Scottish Common Sense Realism', I think this tradition helps encourage an approach or hermanutic that really strives for the truth or heart of the matter.
Make that "Scots-Irish" or "Ulster-Scots"
They were the Presbyterian Preterist crofters from the Islands and Highlands who were displaced from their glens by the newly appionted English nobility who had been awarded Scottish estates by the Stewart Kings of England.
The six Ulster counties were unable to get the catholic Irish to work satisfactorily and they welcomed the influx of Scotsmen with a Protestant work ethic.
Eventually those Scots-Irish tired of the suffocating English feudal system and they emigrated en-masse to the Western Appalachia Indian territory in the Carolinas. They were beyond the control of English government in America and became known as the "Over the Mountain Boyz". They were rugged frontiersmen Indian fighters who lived with their beloved John Knox Geneva Bible in one hand and a Kentucky long rifle in their other hand. By age 12, everyboy could hit an english coin at 200yds with their rifle.
In 1780 General Cornwallis invaded Charleston and Savannah and set out to kill every Over the Mountain Boy he could find.
The English soldiers and their American loyalists all took their oath of office with their hand on a KJV Bible and pledged their allegiance to King George in England. Their weapon was the woefully inaccurate smooth bore 'Brown Bess'.
Using their hard learned Indian fighting guerrilla tactics, the Presbyterian Preterist Scots-Irish reeked revenge on the English military's "Divine Right of Kings" doctrine with their famous battle cry -- "NO KING BUT JESUS !"
The Geneva Bible toting frontiersmen slaughtered the English military and drove them out of the Carolinas and trapped them on the Yorktown peninsular. Only the timely arrival of Washington's Northern army prevented the total annihilation of the Cornwallis Army of just 9000 survivors.
The American War of Independence was a battle of the Bibles, and God chose the winners.
0:29 Unfortunately the rule here is my good brother......do not share it. They will hate you.
After a while, the hate turns into a faint white noise. I can just about drown it out when I raise my voice and get this idea out.
Appreciate you stopping by.
@@Willzyx88 Yes! There is tonns of evidence for this theory. Preterist Archive is a good place to look also. I'm sure you've been there already. Deus est Veritas.
After watching this video again, I understand Willy's point better. The 1000 years is symbolic not literal; considering this is a symbolic book that is valid. And the 'binding' of Satan for a 1000 years is also symbolic of being restrained until Christ finished (completed) His work in the first century.
Thank you. It definitely needs another treatment. I won't do it live though as it needs a bit of thought and a smooth delivery.
@@Willzyx88 ...No Problem Brother! I still appreciate the video because it got me thinking of these passages from a 'symbolic' perspective. A thought that entered my mind was that the 'binding' could have been at the 'temptation' when Christ is victorious and says 'get behind me Satan'; I'm looking forward to hearing more from You Bro! Grace & Peace.
Why would anyone beyond the 1st century think they are part of someone else's story? Those books don't apply to anyone other than those in the stories themselves.
Great video Willy!
David's "reign is traditionally dated from about 1000 to 962 [B.C.] and he ruled for 40 YEARS.When you add 962 B.C PLUS 40 years reign of Christ its 1000 years.
That’s even bad maths....
@@P.H.888 Back then they were using jewish calenders.We live in a modern world today.The 2 years overlap for me does not make much difference.
I can see that, could be seen as the end of the Davidic rule on some level, a la 1 Cor 15:28.
I've bought a second copy of Eric Fugett's 'A Personal Revelation', which is good for exploring these kinds of themes. Lost my first copy. Excited to see what's there.
