I still like to read my Bullinger Companion Bible's appendices at times, too. Call it a secret pleasure.I don't like to "allegorize" the endtimes, until there's a good reason to do it, I'll keep NOT doing it.

Indeed. I don't think he got my tongue-in-cheek response.Reformed amillennialism is not about allegorizing, it's about Christ-centered eschatology. If we believe that Christ and his gospel are central to Scripture, then they should also be central to our eschatology.
Of course, we all know that Paul was amil because Jesus was amil.Of course, we all know that Augustine was amil because Paul was amil!!
The original founders of the US were Calvinist Puritans for the most part and as such were postmil. That is why they came here, avoiding religious persecution notwithstanding. Their idea was to begin a society that was christian and eventually overcome the world by the Gospel. Now there has historicaly been premil Calvinists, John Gill, as well as amil Calvinists. Though the premil Calvinists don't hold to the Dispensational premil view.
Just curious. I seem to encounter that more and more and I'm just wondering if being Amil is part of the tenants of Neo Calvinism. God bless.
Premill/rapture/pretrib camps started at around 1900's
amill/postmill/futurist camps started at around 1400's, 1500's
full/partial/historical preterist camps started at around 70 ad to latest.
I'll be quitely waiting.
Blessings.
