Revelation 1:1
The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:
Revelation 22:12
And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
John 21:22-23
22 Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me.
23 Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee?
Matthew 24:34
Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
You don't provide any explanation of how these verse validate your claim that Christ's return and his millenial reign have already occurred. You emphasize Christ's usages of the words "shortly," in Revelation 1:1, and "quickly" in Revelation 22:12, but that doesn't seem any different from how people have been reading those verses since Christ's ressurection. Many of Christ's early followers were expecting Jesus to return within their own lifetimes based their readings of those verses.
In John 21:22-23, Jesus's disciples misinterpret his plainly spoken admonition to Peter about John.
Jesus did not say he was coming back right then, or any specific date, only that He would show His servants "things which must shortly come to pass," and that he would come "quickly."
Matthew 24:34 summarizes the rest of the chapter before it, where Jesus lists numerous signs hearalding his imminent return, and the "end of the world."(Matthew 24:3). If your claims were sound, you would be able to confidently, and enthusiastically expound on the fullfillment of these signs.
