Are We Eliminating the Real Need for Eschatology?
March 23rd, 2009 | Eschatology | No Comment
In a list of objections raised by Dr. Edward
Hinsons The New Last Days’ Scoffers Articles,
he charges that Preteriism Is False, and asks
“Are We Eliminating the Real Need for Eschatology?
This is a vaild question. It causes us to focus
on what eschatology is and where to place it?
Dispensationalists and all futurists place eschatology

Are We Living in the Last Days?

Ask 9.99 out of 10 people are we
living in the last days? No doubt,
they’ll say yes.
How do they know? Just look at
the signs, they say.
Why does every generation believe
they have a corner on the signs of

Are we living in the last days again?
Is the end coming again? Are we

Why doesn’t someone stop and
smell the burnt coffee beans of
on again, off again eschatology?
How many times do they need to

Wasn’t Hal Lindsey and Edgar
Whisenant enough in the 80’s?
How soon do some forget or
ignore the facts?
These Hagee types would rather
nuke the world than give up their
prophecies ...

was no change in my eyesight from last year
to the present. I thought, it’s good some things
are not aging fast on my body!
Eye exams could also be helpful in understanding
scripture, especially as it relates to the end time.
However, 20/20 vision of the natural eye can be
a very blinding experience for Christ’s return.
Paul encourages us to have the “eyes of our
understanding” enlightened, (Eph. 1:18) That
refers to an inner vision of perception.
From time to time ...
