25 For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that HE SHALL STAND(emphasis added) at the latter day upon the earth: 19:26 And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God 19:27 Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.” (Job 19:25-27 KJV)
Plenty of Old Testament references to Christ who someday shall rule on the Earth, Phillip, if you are having trouble understanding the plain language in Revelation.
There is NO plain language in the Revelation, past the first chapter; nor in the verse you quoted from Job. Young's Literal Translation gives the following for verse 25:
"That--I have known my Redeemer, The Living and the Last, For the dust he doth rise." (Job 19:25 YLT)
LOL! And how about this from the Psalms (King James Version?)
"Thus saith the Lord, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest." (Isaiah 66:1)
Please show us, in the New Testament, where the Lord clearly states he will return to live on the earth, for any length of time. While you are at it, please explain the highlighted part of this passage:
"Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin, because they believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged." (John 16:7-11 KJV)
