Nope, that's post-millennialism.

Satan is still going to be loosed for a little while.

Do you actually believe Jesus is taking so long to wipe out all wicked people and wicked system?"-mess-hack to Tet.





"(2 Peter 3:9) The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.


"IOW, the longer God takes, the more people that can come to repentance."-Craigie Tet.

(2 Peter 3:9) The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

A reference from the time period shortly after the cross till 70AD.

Jesus said "this generation" would see all the things of Matt 24, Luke 21, and Mark 13.

As the years went by, some began to wonder what was taking so long.

You're beyond stupid.

Nope, it's just you have been brainwashed by Dispensationalism.

The "new heavens and new earth" is the new covenant.

The kingdom of God exists right now, but not on planet earth. It's a spiritual kingdom. In that kingdom there is no tears, no death, no sorrow, etc. and no one will ever have to beat their plowshares into swords to defend the kingdom.

It's an unshakable kingdom, the gates of hell cannot prevail against it.

Preterism makes for another effective weapon in the arsenal of atheists. "Wait, if THIS is God's Kingdom RIGHT NOW..."

The kingdom is not on planet earth.

My citizenship is in heaven, not planet earth. I am an ambassador on planet earth.

(2 Cor 5:20) We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God.

Maybe you should google the word "ambassador".

Then you'll never be part of it because you're not part of either house.

The NC is for all who have faith in Christ Jesus.

If you understood who the House of Israel was, and how the Gentiles became fellow heirs to the promises, you wouldn't be so confused.

However, not only are you confused, you are forced to deny the NC, otherwise your MAD falls apart like a house of cards.

So, you're a mess. You're confused, and you are trying to defend a false teaching.
