[QUOTE="BrownFlush, post: 5930421, member: 65823"] Jesus ended animal sacrifices. He was the final sacrifice . "The blood of bulls and goats..."Hebrews Be more specific with your OT passages. I can address each one that you believe means an earthly reign. Revelation 20 confirms nothing of the sort. The false teaching rests upon the misunderstanding and misapplication of Revelation 20:1-7. The Bible teaches Jesus will not set foot on this earth again, much less sit on a physical throne in Jerusalem and rule the world for a 1000 years. Jesus is reigning now. He has been reigning for 2000 years, and the book of Revelation presents Him as reigning. Jesus said of Himself, "I am the root and the offsrping of David" (22:16); "he that hath the key of David" (3:7). John saw Him as "the Root of David" (5:5) appear at the right hand of God (5:7) with the atonement (5:6) for the redemption of mankind (5:9). He assumed the authority of heaven at the right hand of God when He received the completely sealed book (5:7). All of heaven (5:8-12) and earth were subjected to Him (5:13-14), "and he shall reign for ever and ever" (11:15). Salvation, strength, the kingdom of God and the power of His Christ is come (12:10), and men are redeemed with His blood and reign on the earth (1:6; 5:10/. When death comes to the saints, they are resurrected as souls in paradise (rich man/Lazarus) where they continue to live and reign with Christ the 1000 years( figurative not literal), or to the end of time, "and they shall reign for ever and ever" (22:5).
