The apostles are notably silent on any program of either political, social, moral, or physical improvement of the unsaved world. Paul made no effort to correct social abuses or to influence the political government for good. The program of the early church was one of evangelism and Bible teaching. It was a matter of saving souls out of the world rather than saving the world.

I hadn't thought about this before, but I believe Walvoord is making a great point. The Apostles knew there would be a millennial reign after the 2nd advent.

Very good and informative series. Those that disagree with the Premillennial view cannot honestly say it hasn’t been fully described and backed up by God’s word.
