“Guard the truth which has been entrusted to you by the Holy Spirit who dwells within us.” 2 Timothy. 1:14

John the Revelator’s Great Editing Error

What Exactly is Progressive Parallelism? The short answer is that it is the cornerstone of the amillennialist position and without it they have no basis to contend we are currently in the millennial kingdom. I hope that I can make clear their contentions and reveal the theological gymnastics that must be accepted to give credence at all to this view of eschatology.  Please examine the following Scriptures from Revelation.
