Hi Kim, I think I have seen the meaning in the Bible of "The Land of Milk and Honey". I came across your book "A Case for Amillennialism" when I was searching others views on this. (I am for Amillennialism.)
I saw Hebrews 12:18 in your book stating that "you have come to a mountain that can not be touched". The Land of Milk and Honey also can not be touched." The land as I now see it is a symbolic Prophecy. The Land is not a physical place. (Please bare with me on this!). Sure Joshua went to solid land that was promised, but this was only a foreshadow of the "Now land of Milk and Honey." Just Like Noah's Ark was symbolic of Jesus saving us today, Joshua's Promised Land was symbolic of a Land of Milk and Honey all believers share today! Yes Today!
Are you starting to see the Land yet? It took me a while too. If you start with a word search on Honey, and figure out what honey is symbolic of you will start to "see". Also a word search on Milk will add clues. Once you see in the Bible what God made Honey symbolic of, you can ask this, if that's what Honey is, then what is the land this Honey is in? I was in awe when I finally saw it.
I hope this writing blesses you. It is hard to find people that can see the spiritual side of Amillennialism.

I don't know. It will depend upon hosting church.
You think they would be tired of wiping all that egg off of their faces.

Let me know either way what you came up with.
