Resources on The Millennium

Preaching last Sunday from Revelation 20, Pastor Eric exhorted us to love the Millennium. He said Jesus revealed it to us that we might avoid "eschatological hysteria" and persevere in our trials.

It is impossible to change God's plan of salvation.

It is impossible to defeat God's people.

It is impossible to deceive God.

• Amilennialism Today by William E. Cox (simple and encouraging, an old favorite of Pastor Eric)
• Kingdom Come by Sam Storms (contemporary church leader who made a very public shift in his eschatological position, comprehensive but easy to read)
