What is Amillennialism? A Brief Description.
While there are several different views concerning the millennial reign of Christ, Amillennialism has been the predominant view through most of history.
Eschatology (Last Things)
Unveiling of the Bride – Rev 21:9-10
The Holy City, the New Jerusalem, the Bride of Christ, a redeemed and glorious church prepared for her wedding to the Lamb. How great to be a part of that.
A Millennium Kingdom? – Rev 20:4
How should we understand this passage that describes the 1000 year reign of Christ with the tribulation martyrs? Is this a critical doctrine, or less important?
Carrying Out God’s Purpose – Rev 17:17
God is in control, even in directing the affairs of nations, and those opposing him, in the accomplishment of his purpose for creation. He will not be thwarted.
Bowls of Wrath – Rev 16:1
God’s judgement and wrath are coming to this world. The only way to escape this judgement is to listen to the words of Christ and believe in him.
Conquering by the Blood – Rev 12:11
In the heavenly courtroom drama, we defeat Satan, our accuser, by two pieces of evidence; the blood of the Lamb, and the testimony of our lives.
The Last Trumpet – Rev 11:15
The last trumpet announces a divine takeover of the earth where Christ will reign eternally. Is it also the last trumpet that announces the resurrection?
Reading and Keeping the Words of this Prophecy – Rev 1:3
While we may not understand Revelation and all of it’s symbolism, we will be blessed as we read it and as we hold it in our hearts and minds. Don’t allow all of the talk of beasts, dragons and plagues keep you from it.
Looking Forward to a New Creation – 2 Peter 3:11-13
This world and all it contains is temporary and is facing destruction at some time in the future. But the good news is that its destruction makes way for a new and improved heaven and earth. In some ways it is like demolishing an old run down shack and replacing it with a mansion. As believers we should be looking forward to our new home. And as we do, we should live holy and godly lives now, which in some way serves to speed up the date of the remodel.
