I'm interested in what the Book has to say and the Book has a lot in between the covers about eschatology. Yes it is about Christ from Genesis to Revelation and Jesus Christ will bring about the final eschaton.

I'm too dense to place what I believe into a perfect scheme so I often float between the main views.

Please understand that I do have a view and it does show in my interpretation of Scripture. I just don't make a point of studying it. Moreover when,as a preacher, you start feeding folks prophecy it is like giving sugar to a baby all they want is more. I seek to find Christ because I can't get enough of Him. I hope you don't take my statements as belittling you for your interest in those things. Just remember that it all is speculation. No one can be dogmatic on future things.0

Most of the Puritans were postmillennialist as Ian Murray charts in Puritan Hope. Also useful are Postmillennialism: An Eschatology of Hope by Keith A. Mathison and An Eschatology of Victory by J. Marcellus Kik. I suppose you could also check out Greg L. Bahnsen's Victory in Jesus: The Bright Hope of Postmillennialism. There is also Heaven Misplaced: Christ's Kingdom on Earth by Douglas Wilson.

For Bible verses; check out Ps. 72:8-11
8 May he have dominion from sea to sea,
and from the River to the ends of the earth.
9 May his foes bow down before him,
and his enemies lick the dust.
10 May the kings of Tarshish and of the isles
render him tribute,
may the kings of Sheba and Seba
bring gifts.
11 May all kings fall down before him,
all nations give him service.
