About Premillennialism in Christian eschatology Millenarianism Christian Eschatology Premillennialism in Christianity Christian Christian eschatology end times theology is the belief that Jesus Christ will literally and physically be on the earth for his Millennialism millennial reign at his second coming . The doctrine is called premillennialism because it holds that Jesus physical return to earth will occur prior to the inauguration of the millennium. It is distinct from the other forms of Christian eschatology such as postmillennialism or amillennialism , which view the millennial rule as occurring either before the second coming, or as being figurative and non temporal. Premillennialism is based upon a Biblical literalism literal interpretation of Bibleref2 Revelation 20 1 6 in the New Testament which describes Jesus s coming to the earth and subsequent reign at the end of an apocalyptic period of tribulation .

The Scofield Reference Bible is a widely circulated study Bible edited and annotated by the American Bible student Cyrus I. Scofield , that popularized dispensationalism at the beginning of the 20th century. Published by Oxford University Press and containing the traditional Protestant King James Version of the Bible, it first appeared in 1909 and was revised by the author in 1917. ref The title page listed seven consulting editors Henry G. Weston, James M. Gray , W.J. Erdman , Arthur Tappan Pierson A.T. Pierson , W. G. Moorehead, Elmore Harris , and Arno Clemens Gaebelein A. C. Gaebelein . Just what role these consulting editors played in the project has been the subject of some debate. Apparently Scofield only meant to acknowledge their assistance, though some have speculated that he hoped to gain support for his publication from both sides of the millenarian movement with this device. Ernest Sandeen, The Roots of Fundamentalism British and American Millenarianism, 1800 1930 Chicago University of Chicago Press, 1970 , 224. ref The Scofield Bible had several innovative features. Most important, it printed what amounted to a commentary on the biblical text alongside the Bible instead of in a separate volume. ref The Scofield Bible was the predecessor of the very successful marketing trend of orienting Bible study tools to average laymen.

about the historical religious group Seekers disambiguation The Seekers , or Legatine Arians as they were sometimes known, were a Protestant Dissenter dissenting group that emerged around the 1620s, probably inspired by the preaching of three brothers Walter, Thomas, and Bartholomew Legate . Arguably, they are best thought of as forerunners of the Religious Society of Friends Quakers , with whom many of them subsequently merged. Seekers considered all organised churches of their day to be corrupt, and preferred to wait for God s revelation. Origins British historian Christopher Hill historian Christopher Hill explains that, long before the English Civil War English Revolution , there already existed a lower class heretical culture in England. The cornerstones of this culture were anti clericalism and a strong emphasis on Biblical study, but there were specific heretical doctrines that had an uncanny persistence. There was a rejection of Predestination , and an embrace of Millenarianism , Soul sleep mortalism , Nontrinitarianism anti Trinitarianism , and Hermeticism . Such ideas became commonplace to seventeenth century Baptists, Levellers , Diggers , Seekers, early Religious Society of Friends Quakers and other radical groupings which took part in the free for all discussions of the English Civil War English Revolution . ref Hill, Christopher 1977 Milton and the English Revolution . London Faber & Faber , pp. 71 76. ref Beliefs and practices The anti clericalism of Seekers pioneers the Legatts was far from unique. However, historically, when heretics were faced with being Execution by burning burnt at the stake they retracted, retaining their beliefs in a less public way. ref Hill, Christopher 1977 Milton and the English Revolution, Faber & Faber , London, pp. 70 71. ref The Legatts were exceptional.

Unreferenced date June 2008 Joachimites , also known as Joachites were a Millenarianism millenarian group that arose from the Franciscans in the thirteenth century. They based their ideas on the works of Joachim of Flora or Joachim of Fiore , both names are used at points . However they went further than he ever did in rejection of the Church of their own age. Inspiration of Joachim Joachim s works seem to divide history in three ages. The first age was of the Father. The age of the Father was the age of the Old Covenant . The second age was of the Son and therefore the world of Christianity. The third and final age would be that of the Holy Spirit. In this new age an Eternal Gospel would be revealed fulfilling and replacing the organized church. After that society would be realigned on an egalitarian and utopian monastic base. The first age is said to have been of forty two generations. The second age would also be of 42 number 42 generations. Joachim seemed to suggest the Christian era would end in 1260 with the coming of the Anti Christ . After that his utopia n age would arrive. Initially this did not cause condemnation, efforts recently have even been made toward his canonization, as what was meant was disputed. Several readers seem to have felt his utopian age would literally be heaven or it would in least be the age after the Second Coming . This idea came from it being after the Anti Christ and tribulations. To state the Church would be unnecessary then was acceptable. Controversy In 1215 some of his ideas were condemned in the Fourth Council of the Lateran . Further, his admirers came to believe the beginning of this New Age would be ushered in by the coming of a virtuous Pope from the Franciscan order. They considered Celestine V to be this Pope. His resignation, and subsequent death in the dungeons of the next Pope, was considered a sign of the coming of the Anti Christ . Around this time, or somewhat before, they further decided Joachim s own writings were ... more details
