If they weren't in agreement on the pretrib rapture, what were they in agreement with?
Sources and quotes, please.
You said we aren't debating the pretrib rapture. If you don't want to debate anything else, then neither do I.
Their thoughts about the rapture are not known which is why we do not know where they would have stood on the matter in comparison to modern day dispensationalism and it needs to be made clear that even dispensationalists are not in agreement about whether the rapture takes places before or sometime during the forthcoming tribulation. but because the rapture is not relevant to this thread is why I have no desire to debate it here. I will stick with debating matters that are relevant to the thread topic.
What second century eschatology has in common with modern dispensationalism is the following:
1. The restoration of Israel as a nation (though many believed that the Church had temporarily replaced Israel)
2. That Christ could return at any time
3. A coming tribulation and Anti-Christ
4. A literal millennial reign
5. A resurrection of both the wicked and righteous
6. A new heavens and a new earth
