QUESTION: Will the Lord reign with His saints on the earth during the 1000 years (Rev. 20:4)?
ANSWER: All the Old Testament saints, with all believers of this present age, and all those who suffer martyrdom during the tribulation period will reign with Christ, not on the earth, but over the earth. Rev. 5:10 reads in a better translation, "And they shall reign over the earth." However, in Zech. 14:4, we are told that in one act of judgment His [Christ's] feet shall stand upon the Mount of Olives.
QUESTION: What is the lawful use of the law spoken of in 1 Tim. 1:8?
ANSWER: That for which it was intended: namely, as a rule for man in the flesh, not that he could ever keep it, but to demonstrate that he could not. The Christian is not under law, so to put him under it is not a lawful use of it. Nevertheless, he is to walk in the spirit of it and indeed far beyond it (Matt. 5, etc.).
