Just ask yourself, “How does your eschatology transform your daily living?” “Does it produce hope and boldness or fear?” “Are you acting as an ambassador of our reigning King?”

I remain convinced that Storms needs to tone down the rhetoric against premillennialism (all of which I agree with) for the sake of the book's readability. That said, Kingdom Come is an outstanding piece of work that will get addressed often.
The coming chapters are no easier as they span the gulf that is the book of Revelation from the amillennial perspective. No book has caused more trouble to Christians throughout the history of the church. What Storms puts forth is not new but certainly a valuable element of his systematic presentation of amillennialism.
Well I just keep cranking all along. As of my writing tonight this delightful book is now finished. That said, I have a couple more detailed posts coming before I put forth the effort for a concise and rather limited review.
In conclusion, Victory Through the Lamb is a fascinating blend of eschatological/hermeneutical positions rarely seen together. For individuals beginning to question their Dispensational upbringing this effort by Mark Wilson will be an immensely helpful read. Individuals holding to an Amillennial or Postmillennial view will be unsatisfied with Wilson’s treatment of the resurrections in Revelation 20 (194).
