Today’s topic: How your view of end times affects your perspective on politics, the world, and the church.
There has been much talk about end times as we’ve gone through this pandemic. Things like a one-world government, the mark of the beast, and the anti-Christ have been on people’s minds these past couple of years. Here we tease apart some of the issues and talk about how our doctrine might affect our outlook on the world.
We quoted a Wikipedia article about dates people have set for the end of the world. You can read it here.
I also quoted from the Rapture article from the Evangelical Dictionary of Theology:
โThe pretribulation rapture is one of the major doctrines of dispensationalists, and lead them to adopt a miraculous view of social ethics as well as a negative attitude toward society. Those who hold this view have a narrow outlook toward the church and its mission, culture and education, and current events. Their version of Christ against culture has imparted to twentieth-century evangelicals a spirit of withdrawal and of suspicion toward others.โ (R.G. Clouse, Evangelical Dictionary of Theology, p. 910)
