Eschatology 201 Guidelines

This area of the forum is primarily for Christian theists to discuss orthodox views of Eschatology. Other theist participation is welcome within that framework, but only within orthodoxy. Posts from nontheists that do not promote atheism or seek to undermine the faith of others will be permitted at the Moderator's discretion - such posters should contact the area moderators before posting.


Without turning this forum into a 'hill of foreskins' (Joshua 5:3), I believe we can still have fun with this 'sensitive' topic.

However, don't be misled, dispensationalism has only partly to do with circumcision issues. So, let's not forget about Innocence, Conscience, Promises, Kingdoms and so on.

End time -isms within orthodox Christianity also discussed here. Clearly unorthodox doctrines, such as those advocating "pantelism/full preterism/Neo-Hymenaeanism" or the denial of any essential of the historic Christian faith are not permitted in this section but can be discussed in Comparative Religions 101 without restriction. Any such threads, as well as any that within the moderator's discretions fall outside mainstream evangelical belief, will be moved to the appropriate area.

Millennialism- post-, pre- a-

Futurism, Historicism, Idealism, and Preterism, or just your garden variety Zionism.

From the tribulation to the anichrist. Whether your tastes run from Gary DeMar to Tim LaHaye or anywhere in between, your input is welcome here.

OK folks, let's roll!

    I tend to think God is going to put right what Adam made wrong. So we will be more like Adam was before the fall. He didn't go around flying or popping through doors. He was human, immortal, he ate, loved, etc. Of course he and Eve could have children. I don't know if that means we will have children in heaven too or not.
    He didn't have a pirate ship, either.

      Or heck, since we will live FOREVER, it is nice to have a really big place to explore. I plan on building a starship and go exploring for a few billion years.
      I expect there will be better things to do when we get there.

        He would have if it weren't for that shrew of a wife he had. Wives are always trying to stop their husbands from getting boats and having fun with their buddies.

            What is the matter with you guys? Don't you read scripture?

            If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also.

                  Since God is already present everywhere, and He's our(Christians in general) Patron, wouldn't it be impossible to ever be somewhere that God is not with you? Even if you were billions of light years away from the New Earth(somehow), God would still be with you.

                    I am talking about eternity. You know, glorified bodies and stuff like that?

                      Even with a glorified body, Jesus, the man can only be in one place at a time. As God the Son, he is everywhere even now. I don't think we will be playing checkers with Jesus or going fishing on a regular basis. There is only one of him and billions of us. Same with all the other famous people in heaven like the apostles.

                        I know. I really want to know exactly what was happening on a microscopic/molecular scale when Jesus preformed those miracles. Because I'm curious.

                          He will be ruling from the throne with the Father, and I will be eternally glorifying Him. Nobody said anything about checkers or fishing.

                                enjoying chocolate while buzzing the galaxies IS glorifying God.
