Eschatological View?

[Ioustinos]

Hi All!

I just wanted to take a survey of the eschatological views held by those who hold to Reformed/Calvanist theology. So vote for your favorite and see if they win!

I am still looking at both the partial preterist and full preterist views. (full preterism is condemned as heresy by most Reformed churches today)

There are very few Reformed believers who are Pre-millennialist.


EDIT: RC Sproul has many great end times articles and such.

Also, I was recently reading the book End Times Ficiton by Partial Preterist Gary Demar which shows a Biblical critique of the Left Behind series. (and much of Dispensational Pre-millennialism) It is a very insightful book.

Jesaiah

Pan-millennialist

It's going to pan out exactly the way God has it planned.

I knew I left something off the list........

And what about Amillenial Partial Preterists?

 

[jazzbird]

Hmmm....I didn't vote because I'm not precisely sure where my view fits and I don't want to screw up the poll. I am pre-mil, but definetely not dispensational. I am pre-wrath. It's my understanding that historicism believes that the papacy is the beast and all that stuff - is that right?
(This question is not to encourage an anti-catholic debate, but I just need clarification ).

So, anyone know if I fit into one of the categories in the poll?

Make a choice calgal.

 

[Bro. Gabriel]

What about "who cares, no one knows for sure.. Jesus will return, that's all that matters"?

I think Full Preterism can be ruled out, but all the other views are plausible in various degrees. I have mainly studied the Dispensational view (since it is the predominant one available to study), filtered by my reading of the Westminster Confession, which is historicist. Historical premillenialism is what I voted for.

 

[theseed]

How about panmillenialism.

It will all pan out in the end

 

[theseed]

Traditionally, I have been premillenialist. I see history supporting dispensanalism, but I'm non insistant upon it.

I am definetly not amellianialist. Jesus said he would be back and he will.

Could somebody give me links or posts the rundown on the different arguments?

Amellianialism does say that Christ will come again.

Maybe you're confusing it for full preterism, Chrisst's second coming is a past eveent.

Decisions Decisions! Amillenial it is. (But RC Sproul is right about the Partial Preterist View)

I believe in a literal Kingdom and reign of Christ.

 

[Bulldog]

That would make you premillennial, and rule out the other options.

Here's the Blue Letter Bible on some of the views:

Why can't you believe in a postmillenial literal kingdom?

Ain't that just typical.

 

[Bulldog]

Why can't you believe in a postmillenial literal kingdom?

It's just not what postmillenialism teaches.

It doesn;t really make much sense either. Christ having a physical , 1000 year rule, and then after that haveing His second coming?

Never mind, I thought that Pre and post had to did with the rapture.

I'm half asleep
