Résumé : |
The Millennial Kingdom is a comprehensive biblical and historical treatment of the doctrine of the millennium written for the pastor, student, scholar, or layperson. The three leading millennial views—postinillennialism, amillennial-ism, and premillennialism—are presented in the context of their history, their theology, and their biblical interpretation.
Dr. Walvoord presents postinillennialism first and then discusses amillennialism. However, the subject of premillennialism forms the main body of the work. The author introduces preinillennialisin with a survey of its historical background in the Old and New Testaments and in the history of the church. Its theological setting and methods of interpretation are discussed. A presentation of the character of the millennium concludes the volume. |
