The Early Witness to Premillennialism

So how can church history help us on this controversial issue of the millennium?

It can benefit us as we seek to understand the millennial beliefs of those who were in close connection with the Apostle John, the one who penned Rev 20:1–10. It can also help as we examine the beliefs of those in close geographical proximity to Asia Minor where the Apostle John spent his later years.

Our argument is this—we think it probable that those who had close association with John would also have a correct understanding of what John meant by the millennium.
