Amillennialism
Biblical Evidence for the Reconstitution of the Nation of Israel in the Millennium Kingdom
Jesus said to them, “I tell you the truth: In the age when all things are renewed, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you [the twelve disciples] who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.” (Matt 19:28; cf. Rev 7:1–8) Sometimes the truth […]
Five Views that Dismiss Jesus and Paul’s Warning to the Church
In the context of the church that will encounter the Antichrist’s great tribulation, Jesus warns, “Remember, I have told you ahead of time” (Matt 24:25). And in the context of the Antichrist, Paul warns the church, “Let no one deceive you in any way” (2 Thess 2:3). The prewrath position (and most posttribs) is the […]
A Quick Response to Craig Blomberg
“The moment Jesus comes back there will never again be the possibility of any person’s conversion, so we really shouldn’t be that eager for the end to come.” —Craig Blomberg http://www.denverseminary.edu/craig-blombergs-blog-new-testament-musings/who-cares-what-view-of-the-millennium-you-have-right/ I want to comment on Blomberg’s aberrant statement. 1. It is unbiblical. Nowhere in the Bible does it teach Christians not to be “that […]
Four Reasons the Millennial Debate is Especially Important for the Church Today
I do not believe the millennial debate should break fellowship among Christians. Nor do I believe that it should be a first-tier tenet in a church’s statement of faith—i.e. fundamentals to the Christian faith. However, I believe it is a very important doctrine that ranks as a second-tier tenet of faith. Accordingly, it should not […]

Is Jerusalem Holy — Or Not?
http://mac-eschatology.blogspot.com/2013/03/jerusalem-not-holy.html By the way, premillennialists should memorize the biblical passages listed in the second half of this article.
Refuting Steve Wohlberg on His Replacement Theology
On his radio program Line of Fire, Michael Brown debated Steve Wohlberg on the meaning of Israel in the New Testament. Does it refer to the physical descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, or does it refer to a spiritual entity [the church] only? This is one of the best debates I have ever heard […]
Randal Rauser Asserts Premillennialism is Pessimistic, Therefore, it is Against Social Justice and the Environment
Premillennialism is often derided for teaching a “pessimistic” eschatology (as if that makes it right or wrong). Opponents claim that premillennialism by virtue of its tenets cannot be concerned with social justice, the environment, even proclaiming the gospel to the ends of the world, blah, blah, blah. This is a cliché that folks like Randal […]
The Beginnings of Amillennialism
The Beginnings of Amillennialism: Defective Hermeneutic, Spiritualizing, Anti-Jewish, Anti-Physical, and Over-Realized Eschatology I love the Reformers, Calvin, Luther, Zwingli, Carlstadt, et al. But they did not go far enough in their reforms, especially in their eschatology. However, we cannot blame them for they were preoccupied with reforming the doctrines of Scripture, Salvation, and the Church from the […]
Against Amillennialism — On the Freedom and Binding of Satan in Revelation 20:2–3 Compared with Revelation 12:9
(See also www.alankurschner.com/3) The debate between premillennialism and amillennialism is not about whether the 1,000 years mentioned in Revelation 20 refers to a literal 1,000 years. Both positions agree with each other that it denotes at least a period of time. How long is not the issue. To be sure, I do believe that the […]
