Why should there not be three or four resurrections instead of one? What is wrong with there being two peoples on earth? Why on the face of it should we dispute the distinction between the rapture and the second coming? The answer is simply that it contradicts amillennialism, but it does not contradict the Bible literally interpreted.
HP's also believe there is only one first resurrection (Rev. 20) literally interpreted. One elect people of God, one second coming, literally interpreted. And we are premillennialists!

Correction, this sentence should say:
The way this series reads, one would think that it is only Berkhof and the Amills who dispute the dispensational and pretrib scenario described:
Thanks for that. As I read the prophetic books and passages more, I find I am more aligned with HP.
I agree with your comments.
