10 We believe in the literal gathering of Israel and in the restoration of the Ten Tribes; that Zion (the New Jerusalem) will be built upon the American continent; that Christ will reign personally upon the earth; and, that the earth will be renewed and receive its paradisiacal glory.

I may be slow, but I don't see it stating that Jesus will reign on the American continent. It says Jesus will reign upon the earth and that Zion/new Jerusalem will be built in America. I'll have to see where I read about the distinction between old and new Jerusalem. Too bad my computer with Infobases crashed.
That's General Leo. He could be my friend if he weren't my enemy.

Come on, don't hold back. Tell us how you really feel.

True. However, in most "lay people's" minds, it would be logical that if Christ were ruling personally on the earth, and Zion is being built upon the earth, that Christ would dwell, at least primarily, wherever Zion is established.
