The Twilight of Postmillennialism: Fatal errors in the teachings of Keith A. Mathison, Kenneth L. Gentry, Jr. et al.

Dr. Keith A. Mathison is one of postmillennialism's leading proponents. He describes his eschatological vision: "...postmillennialism teaches that the thousand years of Revelation 20 occurs prior to the Second Coming...An essential doctrine of postmillennialism is that prior to the Second Coming, the messianic kingdom will grow until it has filled the whole earth" (Postmillennialism: An Eschatology of Hope, pp. 10, 191). But in his book, When Shall These Things Be?, Mathison concedes, "As far as Paul knew, Christ could have returned in his lifetime" (p. 194). If Christ could have returned within Paul's lifetime, how could there have been enough time for an enormous millennium culminating in the messianic kingdom filling the whole earth? If you find this tremendous inconsistency disturbing, The Twilight of Postmillennialism will be of interest to you. Within its pages, numerous specious arguments proposed by leading advocates of postmillennialism and amillennialism are exposed as fatally flawed. You will be outraged as you witness Mathison and Dr. Kenneth L. Gentry, Jr. distorting simple pronouns in desperate attempts to prove their points. If you are a postmillennialist, prepare for a crisis of belief as Michael A. Fenemore decisively disproves postmillennialism's lynchpin teaching that Matthew 24 should be divided into fulfilled and unfulfilled sections. You may not know whether to laugh or cry as Kurt M. Simmons exposes the ill-conceived theory of "unfolding eschatology" proposed by Dr. Richard L. Pratt, Jr. Authors have been quoted extensively, so reading their books first is not required. The Twilight of Postmillennialism was written to be of value to all Christians, including those with a limited understanding of post/amillennialism. Three articles in the appendices present powerful evidence precluding ALL eschatological systems that place the second coming of Christ in the future leaving full-preterism as the only option.
