If I understand full preterism, no millennial view makes any sense, because each millennial view posits a bodily second coming of Christ at the end at some point in the future. Full preterists deny the second coming, at least as it has been historically formulated in the creeds.
#1. Amills are NOT Replacementarians as Dispensationalists love to fling around. We belive in the Gentile ingrafting INTO Israel. It is hard to find racists when they believe they are joined to Jews.
As do us postmils.
#2. The clear gulf between Partial’s and Full’s is the testimony that the Lord is going to return to judge the earth. And, it seems to be a gulf that very few people cross to deny.
True.
At least, this has been my observation. But, what do I really know. I’m not even a Full Partial Pretereist; just an over-overexurbant Amill.
Sounds like an oxymoron. :-)
***Sounds like an oxymoron. :-)***
Who knows. It just seems strange that we had to be warned about Full Preterism and racism.
Frankly, I just don't understand how every Christian isn't a postmil. If we believe the Holy Spirit works through the preaching of God's word to transform lives, then as the Bible is preached more and more it will continue to transform nations and the world, according to His precepts.
Under the postmil category you'll find names like Athanasius, Lorainne Boettner, John Calvin, Robert Lewis Dabney, Jonathan Edwards, Eusebius, Kenneth Gentry, A.A. Hodge, Charles Hodge, J. Marcellus Kik, J. Gresham Machen, Iain Murray, John Owen, W.G.T. Shedd, Augustus H. Strong, B.B. Warfield, Gary North and Greg Bahnsen.
Where these guys just foolish optimists?
