TODAY'S WORD
 Daniel and Revelation: A Seven Part Teaching Series

Purpose:
A. Providing assistance to the student who is trying to sort through the confusing minefield presented by authors who wrote from three vastly different pre-millenial mindsets:

  • Historicist-Papal Antichrist
  • Futurist-Pre-Tribulational-European Antichrist
  • Futurist-Eastern Leg-Islamic Antichrist

    B. The Goal will be to create a reference work, ideally a type of pocket work, that is organized in a logical manner, where the matters presently in dispute may be critically analyzed for the relative strengths and weaknesses of the arguments employed.

    C. One major purpose for the work is to provide a reference so that the student may quickly see the scriptures and the arguments that refute the position of one who dogmatically holds forth in defense of particular premise and who fails to present those scriptures that argue against his position.





    I: Schemes Of Interpretation That I have Considered, Employed and Ignored for Brevity Sake
    A. Interpretation Schemes as to general timing of prophetic events
    1. Preterism IGNORED because it is false and not generally accepted
    2. Historicism EMPLOYED because it is true, with modifications, yet not generally accepted (I call myself a "Modified Historicist")
    3. Futurism CONSIDERED because it is false, yet generally accepted

    B. Interpretation schemes regarding the timing of the Millenium
    1. A-millenialism IGNORED because it is false and not generally accepted
    2. Post Millenialism IGNORED because it is false and not generally accepted
    3. Pre-Millenialism EMPLOYED because it is true and is generally accepted

    C. Interpretation schemes regarding the coming of our Lord for His bride
    1. Pre-Tribulational Rapture Expectations have been CONSIDERED because they are false, yet generally accepted
    2. Mid-Tribulational Rapture Expectations have been IGNORED because they are false and not generally accepted
    3. Post-Tribulational Rapture Expectations have been been IGNORED because they are false and not generally accepted
    4. Pre-Wrath Rapture Expectations have been CONSIDERED because they are true, yet not generally accepted





    II: End Time Prophetic Confusion Is Increasing because of:
    A. Uncertainty created by:
    1. Increasingly severe Tribulation type events
    2. Advances by Islam and the increase of threats to the West
    3. Rapture prophecies that have failed
    4. Prophecies of impending judgements that have been delayed
    5. Shifting positions proclaimed by major religious television media

    B. The Proliferation of False Teachers in the last hundred years

    C. Forgetfulness: We have forgotten most of the things that our ancestors had already discovered

    D. Irascibility: People prefer to raise their voices rather than buttress their arguments. Rudeness is at an apparent all time high

    E. The "Twiterization" of the people: Most people seem unwilling or unable to read, to study or to understand arguments that require careful and intense study to be understood.
