Premillennialism

I: WHAT IS THE BASIC THEORY OF PREMILLENNIALISM?A: The word itself means “Pre” (before); “Millennial” (1000 year reign).1: Christ originally came to establish His kingdom;2: However, the world was too wicked, thus He was crucified;3: The church was established as a parenthesis till He comes again;4: A rapture of the saints will occur at His coming;5: Seven years of tribulation on earth will be caused by the Antichrist;6: The battle of Armageddon will be the time Christ puts down all evil;7: He will then establish His kingdom and reign for 1000 years;8: Finally, there will be judgment which is followed by heaven and hell.

Three views of rapture• What are the three main views on the Rapture and the Return of Christ?• Timothy Paul Jones Ph.D., author and professor at Southern Baptist Theological

Seminary.• When will Jesus return? And when is the Rapture? People hear about the Rapture on

TV and radio. They wonder if it is the end of the world or if their unbelieving family members are going to have more time to change their mind.

• As a professor and pastor, I am asked this a lot.• Let me explain what you need to know.• Christians who read the entire Bible and take it seriously have answered these

questions in several different ways.• In fact, over the past 2000 years Christian scholars have developed three possible

time lines of end-times events.• These theological explanations can be complex, but I've developed a simple

comparison chart to make the three views easy to understand. And I've included the Bible passages used to support each one. It's very important for Christians to understand the historical background of this topic















Three views of rapture

• 2Pe 1:20-21 - knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.



• 1Cr 1:10 - Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, ……




• 2Ti 2:15 - Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth

Is there going to be a “rapture”?



(1Th 4:16-17) For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.


I: DOES 1 THESS. 4:16-17 SUPPORT THE RAPTURE THEORY? IF SO, THEN:



A: It is not silent! 1: Though 1 Thess. 4:17 uses the expression “caught up” (HARPAZO), it

talks about a time when the Lord shall come “with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God…” (v.16)

2: 1 Cor. 15:52: describes the second coming as “at the last trump: for

the trump shall sound…” 3: 2 Pet. 3:10: “…with a great noise”



B: It is not secret! 1: 2 Thess. 1:7-9: He shall come “with his mighty

angels, in flaming fire…” 2: Rev. 1:7: “He cometh with the clouds; and every

eye shall see Him…”



C: It will not be only for seven years! 1: 1 Thess. 4:17: “so shall we ever be with the

Lord” 2: John 6:39, 40, 44: The resurrection will occur at

the “last day.” cf. Heb. 1:1-3; 1 Cor. 15:23-26



D: There will not be two comings of Christ! 1: In order to get a “secret” coming, premillennialists emphasize

two Greek words: PAROUSIA, 1 Thess. 4:15 and EPIPHANIA, 1 Tim. 6:14, saying these are two different events.

2: However, 2 Thess. 2:8 uses both words to speak of the same

occasion as it describes “the brightness (EPIPHANIA) for His coming (PAROUSIA)


I: DOES 1 THESS. 4:16-17 SUPPORT THE RAPTURE THEORY? IF SO, THEN:E: There will not be two (nor three) Resurrections! 1: This theory demands one at the rapture, another at the end of the tribulation, and

another at the end of the 1000 year reign. 2: John 5:28-29: describes both the wicked and righteous being raised at the same time. 3: 2 Thess. 1:7-9: blessing and punishment both occur at His coming. 4: Acts 24:14-15: judgment will be of the just and the unjust. 5: Matt. 25:31-32: the sheep and the goats will then be divided. All the nations will be

gathered. This is talking about all the people, it does not matter where you live, or who you are.
