Related to this consecutive-narrative logic is the notion of a certificate of debenture: The Seven Sealed Scroll […]
The following problems that J. Webb Mealy raise are never dealt adequately—or at all—in Amillennial literature. I think it is because they are deeply problematic for their system. “[Amillennialism believes since] Satan’s release from prison and destruction (Rev. 20:7–10) is connected with the parousia, then the time of his imprisonment “so that he should deceive […]
