Description
What does the Bible really teach about the end times? Will there be a rapture with some people left behind? "For combining thorough exegesis, readability, and lucid argumentation… this volume has no peers." M Horton
"Amillennialism, dispensational premillennialism, historic premillennialism, postmillennialism, preterism... (are complex topics, but this is) an accessible look at the crucial theological question of the millennium in the context of contemporary evangelicalism.
This study defends amillennialism as the historic Protestant understanding of the millennial age. Amillennarians believe that the millennium of Christ's heavenly reign is a present reality, not a future hope to come after his return.
Recognizing that eschatology, the study of future things, is a complicated and controversial subject, Riddlebarger provides definitions of key terms and a helpful overview of various viewpoints. He examines related biblical topics as a backdrop to understanding the subject and discusses important passages of Scripture that bear upon the millennial age...
Regardless of their stance, readers will find helpful insight as Riddlebarger evaluates the main problems facing each of the major millennial positions and cautions readers to be aware of the spiraling consequences of each view."
