Revelation Six - When The Four Horsemen Ride
What Is Amillennialism
So, what is this Amillennialism thing, anyway?
There are some nuances to their belief, but it basically says that Revelation 20 is completely symbolic and that we Christians are ruling and reigning with Christ - symbolically. It claims that there will be no 1000 year reign on earth by Christ, and it claims that the Millennium began 2000 years ago. It also claims that the First Resurrection has already happened. Also no bodies will be resurrected, just souls.
Sound familiar?
Yeah. It's a bit like Preterism.
Now, there is a subset of Amillennialism that believes that the First Resurrection hasn't happened yet, and that it will occur along with the Second Resurrection. They call that 'Imperfect Amillennialism'. I guess that an 'imperfect' lie is better than a perfect one.
Like Preterism, the ONLY way that Amillennialism can work is if you throw out the Book of Revelation and all the Last Days prophecies in the Hebrew Scriptures. And, there's literally no way that you can do that without being cursed by God. And yes, 'cursed by God' is a perfect epithet for Amillennialism.
If you are an Amillennialist, you have brought the curse of God upon you - according to Revelation 22:19.
So, Where Did This Heresy Come From?
