    Do Amillennialists believe in the rapture of the church?


    This is an interesting thread. :)

    FTR, this is not exactly so. Not all a-milleniallists believe in a 'literal" tribulation, at least not in any sense of a "time period', that hsa any definition or limits. In fact, most a-milleniallists do not believe this, (and especially in any 'rapture', which is by definition, the "taking out" of the saints from the world), but rather in a 'sudden' "ending of this world" at "judgment day", and the start of 'eternity'.

    And there are all sorts of flavors of all views on eschatology, as I have previously posted, and among Baptists, at that.

    "All" is just too broad a brush to paint with, in most cases, on prophecy.

    You might also note that "post-trib", as a general category, has to do with a Post-tribulational rapture, and pre-millennial return of the Lord Jesus Christ, and not any a-millenial view.

    "Rapture" and "return" are not synonomous, by any stretch.

    Ed,

    You are partially correct. Some amills do not believe in literal 3 1/2 or 7 year of "Tribulation Period". But, technically, amills believe we are already in tribulations since Early Church to now. Much safer for to saying that all amills believe 'caught up'(1 Thess. 4:16-17) shall be after tribulation according to Matt. 24:29-31.

    In Christ
    Rev. 22:20 -Amen!

    How about pan-mil?

    These theories are all conjecture, I believe it will all "pan out" in the end. Leave it to God.

    For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation. II Corinthians 6:2

    I think this is generally what the amillennials advocate at this point.
