I have repeatedly asked you for scripture that specifically describes a 1000 year earthly kingdom ~after~ the 2nd Coming of Christ and before He ushers in the New Heavens and the New Earth.

I have repeatedly told you that the scripture is right there in chapters 19 and 20. A shred? How about the listing of settings from Ch 19 & 20....you complained about it being a longer post, so you must have seen it.

What's right there in chapters 19 and 20? A specific description of a 1000 year reign of Christ on earth ~after~ the 2nd Coming and ~before~ He ushers in the New Heavens and the New Earth? (Hint: let the words of these passages speak for themselves. Don't let Martyr speak for them)

I'm sorry, but I'm having trouble finding that description. Apparently, Peter forgot about that as well in his vivid description of Christ's 2nd Coming and His institution of the New Heavens and the New Earth. (2 Peter 3:10-13).

It seems, as well, that Jesus forgot to consult with Justin Martyr. You see, it seems Jesus mistakenly taught that the Resurection of ~all men~ and the Judgement of ~all men~ happened on the same day (John 6: 39,40,44,54) -the ~LAST~ day! Jesus also apparently was mistaken when he taught that the Resurection of ~ALL~ men happened in an ~HOUR~. Martyr taught the Resurrection happened in two stages separated by a '1000' year temporary reign on earth. The 'saved', according to Martyr, would be resurrected before this short lived reign and the 'condemned' would be resurrected ~after~ this short lived reign on earth. Only after the 2nd resurrection would the Judgement happen. Jesus forgot to consult the well known work of Martyr you quoted!

Actually, I never complained about 'it being a longer post'. Re-read my words here.

I was merely responding to your comments regarding your complaint about longer posts. What I objected to was your comments about my (as well as others) post being to long, but it was OK for you to make several points. If you are to make several points, you must expect my response to them in total. Don't complain about it later.
