Ep. 42: Postmillennialism & the Date of Revelation

In this episode, Pastor Mike defines postmillennialism and we discuss why some are inclined toward this eschatology of hope. What is the impact of Doug Wilson and James White on this view? How has that created a revival in this eschatological viewpoint, especially as it relates to the culture war? As an eschatology of hope, does that mean variations of the other views are not hopeful? Is postmillennialism the only victorious view of the end times? If the golden age comes before Christ returns, is everyone saved? How has this doctrine developed throughout church history? What are some of the biblical problems of this view? Does the destruction of the temple in 70 AD create a problem for this view? Does the date of the book of Revelation matter? Pastor Mike talks about the external (extra-biblical) evidence for the late date of Revelation and the internal (Biblical, from the text) evidence for the late date. The fan favorite, the Inquisition, is back! Does the ancient document called the Didache lay out a clear eschatological position? Tune in today! We discuss these questions and more.
