The Future Prospects of the Church | Sam Waldron | The Weekly Discourse

Few issues in eschatology are of more practical importance than the prospects of the church during the gospel age. One’s views of this subject will profoundly influence one’s attitudes, hopes and efforts for the church. This is, however, not only a highly important subject, it is also a hotly disputed subject. 

Those who hold more negative views of the future prospects of the church during this age are called pessimillennialists. Those who hold more positive and optimistic views of the earthly prospects of the church are sometimes branded liberals and evolutionists. Perhaps the classic declaration of the growth and progress of the church during this age is found, however, our Lord’s Parable of the Mustard Seed.

This lecture was taken from a class taught by Dr. Sam Waldron called Questions in Eschatology. The class is available to students and auditors at Covenant Baptist Theological Seminary.
