If Satan is bound, explain the Jerry Springer show.

Thy kingdom come,

Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

If heaven is like earth now, I have the wrong Bible.

Would you be suggesting that His will is not done on earth? Surely not! I would call you an Arminian then and nobody should have to endure that. ;-)

BTW, I would think that Ozzy would be harder to explain than Springer. Springers audience is small compared to the #1 rated Ozzy! How do I know this since I don't have cable and rarely watch TV--some of my Arminian friends who have watched it told me a few weeks ago during Bible study.

I think he WAS bound and is now loose:>)..BTW you are a nut!

Would you be suggesting that His will is not done on earth?

=====

His decretive will has always been done on earth. The coming kingdom is marked by His preceptive will being done on earth as it is indeed done in Heaven.

Puhleeeeeze do not call me an Arminian mister Woody. Homey don't pedal that drugge.

OK, you cracked the nut! Would you expand upon it with scripture references?

[RnMomof7]

I just asked him to explain the entire thing to me:>)

[CCWoody]

I'm free of that addiction myself.

The Millennial Kingdom, by John F. Walvoord doe a fairly good job of describing the MK from a dispensational perspective with Scriptural citations and explanations. I really do not desire to do detailed debate on eschatology on these threads. I do believe the "Lord's Prayer" does point to a future kingdom where a righteousness reigns in a way not experienced today.

I also believe there is a present mystery form of the kingdom that is a foretaste of the full reality to be yet revealed. The MK fully satisfies the covenantal promises to Abraham (Abrahamic Covenant, Davidic Covenant and Palestinian Covenant).

I was once asked to debate Dispensational and Covenant theology. My response is, "I don't do dog and cat fights." I figure if I am right A-mils and post-mils will have 1000 years plus eternity to redraw their charts. If I am wrong, and you know that's not likely ***tongue in cheek posture*** I'll acknowledge my error and continue to enjoy the presence of My Savior.

As do I!

BTW, you do realize that I chose my tense carefully around the name "Arminian" in a way to make it **tongue in cheek**, don't you?
