1. Eschatology (The study of last things)

2. Hijacked by many false doctrines  Premillennialism: Corruption of the kingdom and God’s promises to Israel  Preterism (Realized Eschatology, AD 70): Unduly focuses on the end of the Jewish economy and concludes we live in the “eternal days”  Uses the OT prophets to interpret NT rather than the other way around, 1 Pet. 1:10-12 (2 Pet. 1:20)  Distorts the covenants, the promises, the church and the Christian’s hope, 2 Tim. 2:14-18; 2 Pet. 3:16-18 2
