This article dives into postmillennialism, a religious idea that suggests Jesus will set up a clear, long-lasting kingdom on Earth before his second coming. The author questions whether this belief truly offers the hope and optimism its followers claim, arguing that the New Testament provides entirely sufficient grounds for hope through Christ’s resurrection and return, making postmillennialism either unnecessary or misleading. It’s a thoughtful read if you’re interested in Christian theology and different views on hope and purpose.
