I know one thing for sure, Yeshua is not coming back in secret. It will be with a SHOUT, TRIUMPHANTLY. Secret returns and dark happenings are the methods of the adversary.

Seventeen percent, meanwhile, identify with "other" end times theology. That would include me...

"focusing on the specifics of the last days can be a distraction from living faithfully in the present, according to the survey."
I'm not sure how anyone makes that connection. I am endlessly amused by end times "headline chasers" but I've never thought that was a reason to consider them to be living any less "faithfully in the present." If anything it should be a spur to live more faithfully.

A majority of evangelical leaders believe that Jesus Christ will return to earth and then reign with his followers for 1,000 years, a new survey shows. I'm always slightly amused by these polls because they suggest that a significant minority of "evangelicals" don't believe this will happen. Since this belief comprises a core tenet of evangelicalism, I'd say these "other Christians" are impostors; many of them probably would also say that Jesus was an invented myth, as is most of the Bible.
It's kind of on the same order as having a "church" of homosexual "christians."

Actually, that 17% would be the historic Christian view.

How would you characterize this “other” end time eschatology, then?

With so many organized churches today joining together in the social utopia is it any wonder that there is no consensus? I wouldnt dare identify with any one of them.

RE: the historic Christian view.
How does the historic Christian view understand the millenium? Thanks.

The people who truly "understand the times, and know what Israel should do" are not in the majority. The real thought leaders who advance the cause of the Lord Jesus Christ in the arena of discourse are neither pre-mil nor defenders of public education.

I don’t consider it a core belief. I don’t believe or disbelieve any of this. Sort of none of my business.
My business is to be ready for Jesus’ return.

Post-mills are like fags! Nice!
To: ConservativeDude
Wrong, you mis-read me. I said those who think Jesus is just a myth are on the order of those who are “fag churches.” And some of these “evangelicals” polled believe just this.
