I also think that God has made a promise to ethnic Israel, and that many will come to Christ in the end. That motivates me to preach the Gospel to every creature, and to make sure, to the best of my ability, those who profess Christ actually know Who and what they believe. As for me, you, or any great number of people actually ensuring a huge conversion of souls, I want to simply be faithful, and let God take care of the results of my message.

Orthodox Preterists believe that the literal and bodily second coming of Christ is a future event. We believe that Jesus presently reigns over his kingdom the church, from Heaven.We believe in a general resurrection of the just and unjust at his coming. The NH and NE and the general judgment of the just and the unjust... Concerning a mass spiritual apostasy at the end of the age and before the second coming,i do not know if this is what the Apostle Paul was speaking of in 2 Thessalonians 2...Though it is possible. Jeremy, since becoming and orthodox Preterist, my understanding of the events of Ad70 and of Matthew 24, concerning " this generation" has given me a greater concern for the well being of All souls,but the Jews and Israelis in particular. I do not say that all Post-mill and A-mill orthodox Preterists, share my same view... I do believe that one's Eschatological belief(s) does have an impact on their view of the world and the great commission... I do not see much daylight between A-mills and Postmills ... On the other hand Premills seem to be the greatest of all soul winners,yet they see the salvation of ethnic Israel as a given... We know that it is not a given,but that their salvation will come only by way of the sound preaching of the Gospel and their being grafted into the church,the one and only body of Christ. Most Premills believe that "All Israel" will be saved, speaks of their conversion after the rapture (pre-trib or pre-wrath). It does not.. Most Premills believe in a huge conversion of ALL people after this so called rapture of the church.There will be no rapture of the church... I believe that Amills and Postmills can do a far greater job to insure that there will indeed be a huge conversion of souls before the Lord Jesus returns.If we come together to make it happen.

I'm finding that most Christians of all millennial views believe in some kind of mass conversion of Jews at the end of the age, but at the same time Paul says there is also going to be a mass apostasy at the end of the age, so I don't really know how to reconcile that with post-millennialism.

What is your definition of an Amillennialist who is an Orthodox Preterist and shares the hope of Postmillennialists of a huge conversion of souls, (namely Jews and Israelis) by the end of the present millennial reign of Christ? That was indeed a good definition of Amillennialism…
