Thanks, but I'll just believe the Word of God as it is written; NOT as some theologians torture it to fit into their particular dogma.
Although most in my church tend toward premillinealism, I share my pastor's view. He calls himself "pan-trib;" it will all pan out in the end.
I agree with you: however it works out, it will be joyous. I firmly believe that much of Scripture is meant to be completely understood only in retrospect.
Merry Christmas to you, as well.
