The thousand years reign of Christ and His second coming
Posted by Mats Rydin on February 23, 2010 at 11:32am in Forum
Shalom,
I got an article in swedish about the echatology from the pastor in a reformed evangelical church. They have an amellinianism belief which if I´v understand it correctly says that the thousand years of reign already has begun with Yah´shuas first coming and death and resurrection. The opposite belief is called premellianism which says that the thousand years reign begins first after Yah´shua second coming and the first resurrection. This article sais that the number 1000 is only symbolic and it means the perfection or for a very long time. I don´t agree with that interpretation. It sounds a bit of preterism 1. What do You think? I put a similiar article in english as both as a PDF file and as a textfile.
1. See Wikipedia:
Preterism is a variant of Christian eschatology which holds that most or all of the biblical prophecies concerning the End Times refer to events which have already happened in the first century after Christ's birth. Because of its claims that Ancient Israel was supplanted by the Christian church at the destruction of Jerusalem in A.D. 70, Preterism has sometimes been identified as replacement theology[citation needed]. The term preterism comes from the Latin praeter, meaning "ahead of" (as a preposition) or "beforehand" (as an adverb),
and indicates the belief that many or all such events occur "ahead of"
the time at which the belief is articulated (viewing time as a whole
from the perspective of an entity outside time) or "beforehand" as from the perspective of an entity existing in time. Adherents of Preterism are known as Preterists.
