Another way of looking at the issue

Some people are passive towards the future, others are active.I think it's time to throw in a quote from my favorite marxist jesuit, the late Ivan Illich:The intellectual powerhouses behind the flourishing home and Christian school movements are post-millenial. We claim the future for our God by (re)claiming our children from the state for God.

Who wants to join me on the winning side of a cultural revolution?

me? I am sorta pan mil. It will all pan out in the end.

I have read most of the "spokesmen" for the various positions and remain firmly unconvinced(!) by all.

I am sure that the dispensational approach is distinctively UNbiblical, but besides that, I really don't have an eschatology other than the famouse boy scout stuff "be prepared."

It is true, however, that the greatest missionary movement of the 17th 18th and 19th centuries were all post mil at their core. It is, as Marcellus Kik states "An Eschatology of Victory."

Plenty truth in that perspective of seizing the day, hour, week . . . territory . . . and especially our kids from the globalists.

I haven't seen reliable stats which would confirm your assertion at all about the bluck of the home school and Christian school people being categorized as post millenial.
