Description
The study of the end times can be confusing and overwhelming, but Wes and I have attempted to share some nuts and bolts on this topic.
Last week we shared an episode titled Are We Living in the Last Days? On Monday we shared another called: Living with Hope When the Church Says It’s Only Going to Get Worse.
Our intention in doing these episodes was to present another biblical perspective on the end times that many have not heard about because we have never been taught anything different.
To clarify, there are 3 basic views on end times: Premillennialism (which is what almost all of us have been taught exclusively or simply watched the "Left Behind" series) Amillennialism, and Postmillennialism.
Prior to about 100 years ago all three views were known to and held by the church and her theologians.
I think that is worth noting. This means that throughout all of church history, believers were knowledgeable about all three perspectives. Only in the last 100 years has Premillennialism been so widely embraced. I don’t know about you, but that alone gives me a reason to pause.
Today we are answering questions that arose from our previous discussions by sharing the Postmillennialism perspective on Revelation, the Mark of the Beast, and the Anti-Christ. This will wrap up this three-part series on this topic.

Exploring Nature Truths with our Kids (Podcast 356): When I first recorded this episode with Sherri, it was the beginning of summer, and her new devotional was supposed to be published soon. It was delayed and is finally available, but any time of year is a great time to learn more about who God is through... by The Durenda Wilson Podcast
