    The beliefs of the early Chiliasts were the antithesis of modern Premil

    Justin Martyr Asia Minor (now Turkey) (AD 100-166) Justin is very strong and consistent when it comes to his teaching on the subject of the current kingship of Christ and Him reigning in the heavenlies over His enemies. Justin quotes Psalm 110:1 to support his belief that Christ is currently...

    The beliefs of the early Chiliasts were the antithesis of modern Premil

    It is particularly challenging at the best of times trying to comprehend the various vicissitudes of the early Church teachings. Most of that is because we try to examine their theology through the lens of our modern theological norms. What adds to the complexity and perplexity is the fact that...

    The moral Law still stands to convict people of sin. But the old covenant, and ceremonial system, including sacrifices, offices and traditions are gone forever.

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    I hate to burst yoiur bubble. But the reigning over the nations with a rod of iron described in Revelation 2, 12 and 19 is a shepherding over the nations at the end. This is not reigning for a 1,000 years as Premils intimate. In fact, one thousand years are not mentioned in the reading. The only...

    The KJV is not perfect. It is only a translation. The Bible was written in Hebrew and Greek.

    God has got restraining power over the devil, so has the Church.In Matthew 12 we see the religious Jews rejecting Christ. Matthew 12:14-22 records, “Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how they might destroy him. But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from thence...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    I use the KJV also. But the word "rule" means "shepherd." Christ will shepherd over the nations at the end. He will shepherd over the sheep and goats and will separate them. That is what the word rendered reign/rule in the KJV actually means in the original Greek. There is nowhere in Scripture...

    The old is gone. The new covenant doesn't contain such. Where is it in the NT?

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    Your BIG-devil-and-small-Jesus theology is erroneous. Read 1 Peter 5:8: “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.” The very next verse 1 Peter 5:9 affirms, “whom resist stedfast in the faith.” The true Church of Jesus...

    Just because you say so doesn't mean it is so. All we are getting are your opinions. You have nothing to support your speculations.

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    But we are the children of Abraham today. We have been grafted into true Israel. We are the true children of Abraham, by faith. It is not about race, but grace. That is not replacement theology but expansion theology.

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    Sorry? Are you for real? This is another reason why Christians should abandon Premil. It has a BIG devil and a small Jesus. Premil has a big devil and an impotent powerless church. This reinforces the Op. Repeated Scripture shows that Christ is reigning NOW! He is reigning upon high NOW! He...

    Saying you think you are such an expert. What is replacement theology? Who holds to it? And who do they believe they have replaced?
