We have a great deal we can agree with them about, but why they refuse to see how much of the Roman theology they took with them is beyond me. One of the great battle cries of the Reformers were the 5 Solas, one of these being Sola Scriptura. We find Premillennialism in Scripture, you can't find Amillennialism unless you do away with literal interpretation of prophecy.
If the Millennium is allegorical, people have to dump countless numbers of passages in the O.T. since they become meaningless and are a waste of good ink and paper...I don't believe God had the O.T. prophets go out and tell stories for what, entertainment???
Great illustration of where allegorical interpretation leads.
It sure seems like we are going to see our LORD any day now with all that's going on in the Middle East. The shame of it is most people don't see the implications of the Pope siding with the Palestinians, or Russia becoming involved in supporting Iraq. Allegorical interpretation blinds people to seeing God's plan playing out right before us.
As current events unfold you would think there would be more whose eyes are opened to how it fits into prophesy.
Syria, Russia, Iraq and Iran bonded together with China waiting on the sidelines...
