Peace On Earth—How Will It Come?

[locust]

Jesus, the Ruler of God’s Kingdom, is called the “Prince of Peace,” and he will ensure that “to peace there will be no end.”—Isaiah 9:6, 7.

[Canary42]

Peace came in 1918 when Men won the war to end all wars - then Women got the vote, and the rest is history.

This thousand year thing seems to be from the same playbook as the A9 dualling project.

Jam tomorrow, pie in the sky, butter side down and any other food-related stuff you can dig up.

[bookbinder]

I think that the question should be worded: "Peace On Earth - Will It Come?"

[naomi24]

If I understand fiveleaves correctly, his belief relates to this: 

 

//The Millennial day theory, the Millennium sabbath hypothesis, or the Sabbath millennium theory, is a theory in Christian eschatology in which the Second Coming of Christ will occur 6,000 years after the creation of mankind, followed by 1,000 years of peace and harmony.[1] It is a very popular belief accepted by certain premillennialists who usually promote young earth creationism.//

Whether the young earth creationsists like it or not, 6000 years after the creation of mankind is already long gone.

Naomi, No you dont understand me correctly.

I dont know where you are getting 6000 years from. The rule of Jesus on earth is a literal 1,000 year period. Coming sooner than most people think

Yes, if I follow on the same lines that. The 6,000-year end is because. I believe that the end of the Sixth Day, God rest, will send, his son, will have to arrive before the end, of the sixth Thousand Years (God)reign?.of the Earth. So this ending, of the 6,000-year, The arrival of Christ and the new Kingdom of his thousand-year range in The Paradise Earth condition

Oh Thou, who Man of baser Earth didst make, And who with Eden didst devise the Snake; For all the Sin wherewith the Face of Man Is blacken'd, Man's Forgiveness give—and take!

During the second coming how will he be able to look us in the face?

[Old_Geezer]

True peace is probably just stagnation. Better to have a little chaos around to keep folk on their toes and using their wits.

Yes, that may be true in the way that you humans think, but let me explain, I'm not out looking for my own bigotry (try to save a person's life, is that wrong ?). But looking for saving the people, who ignore my god and creator, but he has given a promise, that those who turn around and believe in him, they have an opportunity, to be saved, by his son in his new resurrection and your, Kingdom upon this earth for those who really believe that he exists, and is the true god, humans are just dust, of the ground, And they without the strength of their god, therefore we must put ourselves in his hands and believing him that he is and does as exist.  Matthew 16:26 Really, what good will it do a man if he gains the whole world but loses his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life? .   Mark 8:36?    
         Acts 17:24,31,32 Because he has set a day on which he purposes to judge the inhabited earth in righteousness 

[andy-hughes]

Locust - Please don't quote ancient writings from people who simply thought like you. That makes no inroads whatsoever in making me believe as you do.

And no, there is nothing wrong with saving people's lives ' why don't you stop preaching superiority and go and train as a paramedic?

I'd have respect for you then.

[Canary42]

///those who turn around and believe in him, they have an opportunity, to be saved,///

Didn't work for Joan or Arc did it ?

Nor for Mary Queen of Scots ?

Nor for millions of others who suffered premature extinction (I'm sure all the little kiddies sufficated at Aberfan believed fervently in Him)
