Why Premillennialism Matters (Video)
Why premillennial theology matters is an issue that every student of biblical prophecy needs to be aware of. Premillennialism teaches that at Jesus’s second coming he will deliver the righteous and judge the ungodly. Then the righteous will enter into a period—the millennium—of peace and righteousness where Jesus establishes on earth his physical reign […]
Craig Blaising on the Difference Between Israel and the Church (Video)

This is the KEY question to ask the person who thinks the Abomination of Desolation in Matthew 24:15 was caused by Titus
How many times have you been told that the abomination of desolation, as well as the great tribulation, in Matthew 24:15–21 is not an event that will be fulfilled in the future? Many times. Most amillennialists and historical premillennialists think that the abomination of desolation in Matt 24:15 was caused by Titus in AD 70. […]
At the end of the day, Amillennialism uses allegorical interpretation
[In response to covenant/amillennial theology, Blaising and Bock write:] “Rather than talking about an earthly, carnal kingdom, as the original language of the human prophet suggests, the “unconscious symbol” is the new heavens and new earth as the New Testament indicates by its emphasis on this theme and its exclusion of discussion about the land. […]
Was Charles Spurgeon a Supersessionist When It Came to Israel?
Spurgeon was a historical premillennialist, not a futurist premillennialist. I came across the following statement of his which would indicate he was supersessionistic: “And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of […]
Future National Israel
Blaising and Bock write, For [Bruce] Waltke, the issue centers on the land. But is his criterion for “proof” too narrow, demanding as he does an explicit New Testament affirmation of Israel’s inheritance in the land in order for Old Testament promises to be taken in their historical sense? Is land the central issue Waltke […]
On Misrepresenting Dispensationalism
Craig A. Blaising tells the following story, Recently, one of my students wrote a paper on current issues in dispensationalism. At the beginning he quoted a prominent pastor who identified dispensationalism as that dangerous heresy of date-setting. The student, of course, dismissed this charge as simply uninformed. Dispensationalism is a futurist premillennialism. Its very reception […]
