Christ will sit on the throne of David for a thousand years. (The Millennial Kingdom)
... and now there are still two types of Gentiles. Those grafted into the olive tree and those not.
The kingdom of God encompasses all of God's creation. I don't see why you think is any problem for MAD.
The gospel of the kingdom and the gospel of the grace of God are not identical no matter how much you cry about it.
Guess what... we preach it because it's right there in the pages of scripture. Only a blind bat can miss it.
The "rest of Christianity" is pretty much like most of Israel back in Christ's day. That's why I usually call it "Churchianity".
I would expect nothing less from a Christ denier such as yourself.
Wrong again.

If you don't care for right doctrine, you can continue wrongly dividing the word of truth.
Yes, that explains your confusion, contradiction, and misinterpretation of the Scriptures.
You have been taught to wrongly divide the word of truth but using the dividing line of "this is not written to me" and "this is written to me" instead of the correct dividing line of "this is what God wants and expects from mankind" and "this is not what God wants and expects from mankind".
An example is this verse:
Leviticus 20:13
13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
Using your dividing line, the entire verse goes into the "this is not written to me" category, which allows people to think someone can be a homosexual without losing salvation.
Whenever anyone brings up the verse, the people using your dividing line can focus on the part that says that both need to be put to death as a way of ignoring the part that says men should not be homosexuals.
Using my dividing line, the verse becomes two parts.
The first part is the part that goes into the this is what God wants and expects from mankind".
God wants and expects mankind to flee from homosexual lusts and avoid homosexual behavior, even to the point of finding it as offensive as premeditated murder.
In the "this is not what God wants and expects from mankind" is mankind putting homosexuals to death for their offenses.
God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked because He really wants the wicked to repent and live.
Ezekiel 18:23
23 Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord God: and not that he should return from his ways, and live?
I am already with Him (actually IN Him) and cannot be separated from Him.
STP says all Paul preached was "Heavenly places".
Yes, indeed.
I love the four gospels and Hebrews-Revelation. But I cannot see myself anywhere in them.
You are in danger of having your name blotted out of the book of life?
Revelation 3:5
5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.
The Old Testament is the portion of the Bible that comes directly from the TaNaKh, composed of the Torah (Law, also known as the five books of Moses and the Pentateuch), the Nevi'im ("Prophets") and Ketuvim ("Writings").
The Old Testament is the books that Jesus referred to whenever He said, "it is written".
The Old Testament is the books that Paul quoted over and over again in his epistles.
Inside the Old Testament can be found many covenants that God made, including the Old Covenant (both versions Deuteronomy 29:1) made with the children of Israel and the New Covenant (Jeremiah 31:31) God promised to make with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah, which was finally made during the last supper and crucifixion of Jesus Christ.
You, on the other hand, are so set on "right dividing" your Bible with a magic marker that 90% of it has become blotted out.
