By Pastor Kelly Sensenig
This system is a fanciful dream. The church will not transform society. The
Scriptures say that society is gradually getting worse (2 Timothy 3:1-13 - "
perilous times shall come" and "evil men and seducers shall was worse and wo
rse"). Furthermore, after the world wars and continuing wars that plague our
society today one must deceive themselves into thinking that the world is g
etting better. The League of Nations was unsuccessful. The United Nations is
not successful either. We can't have peace without the prince of peace ruli
ng on planet earth. The saints are not going to bring in the kingdom in any
fashion or various stages of degrees. Jesus Christ is going to return and b
ring in the kingdom with His own power and might. The saints will not nor ca
n they bring in the kingdom (see Daniel 2:44; 7:20-22; 27). It will take the
King of Kings to bring in the earthly Kingdom. There can be no peace on pla
net earth until the Prince of Peace returns (Isa. 9:6).
This postmillennial movement is being promoted today by some in the modern d
ay Charismatic movement such as Pat Robertson. Other men such as D. James Ke
nnedy promote this view of the Millennium. These men do not believe there wi
ll be a literal Millennium over earth which Christ rules but that the Church
, over which Christ reigns today, will eventually improve society, bring in
the Millennium and reign victoriously. This is why these men major on speaki
ng out against the social ills of our society. They believe that the mandate
for the Church is to reconstruct society and make it better. One can hardly
wonder how D. James Kennedy can espouse this view of the Millennium since h
e is constantly speaking out against the departure of this nation from its h
istorical Christian roots. He should be able to see the hopeless slide of th
is nation and world into the devil's lap (1 John 5:19). In a September 1994
plenary speech to the Christian Coalition national convention, Rev. D. James
Kennedy said that "true Christian citizenship" involves an active engagemen
t in society to "take dominion over all things as vice-regents of God."
The entire Reconstructionist Movement stands on a false premise since the La
w was given to govern the nation of Israel, a separate entity from the churc
h, and not all world government is expected to follow the Mosaic Law (Romans
9:4-5; Exodus 19:3-6). The nations today should follow and use the Noahaic
covenant as a form of governing principle to follow which was given for the
entire world to follow after the flood and throughout the changing dispensat
ions (Genesis 9:1-16).
To the postmillennialist, Christ has transferred the blessing of the kingdom
from Israel to the Church. And the new Israel (the Church) is to gain domin
ance over the world and usher in the kingdom. The Great Commission given by
Jesus was a commission to dominate the entire world and rule it victoriously
(Matt. 28:19-20). Satan has been bound or defeated in this present age by t
he death and resurrection of Christ. This allows the triumph of the church t
o take place. After the kingdom has arrived through man's efforts and is est
ablished for some time, it's only then that the King will return. However, a
cursory glance of Scripture will tell us that the world is not overtaken an
d controlled by the church and righteousness when the King returns (Psalm 2;
Rev. 14:8-29; 16:13-14; 19:17-21).
