Premillennialism
John MacArthur caused quite the uproar in the Reformed side of the Christian blog world recently by speaking on “Why Every Self-Respecting Calvinist is a Pre-Millennialist?” at the opening session of the 2007 Shepherds’ Conference. Read a summary here, and post-conference Q&A here.
“Of all people to be pre-millennialist it should be the Calvinist–those who believe in sovereign election. A-millennialism is ideal for Arminians because according to their theology God elects nobody and preserves nobody. A-millennialism is consistent with Arminianism. Yet it is inconsistent with Reformed theology and its emphasis on God’s electing grace.”
