Is the doctrine of amillennialism a catholic doctrine?


Asked by Grayson Salgado on Dec 02, 2021 FAQ



The doctrine of amillennialism, or that there is no 1,000 years of literal reign upon the earth by Jesus Messiah, is a Catholic doctrine. Amillennialism was not preached or believed by the Apostles.
Likewise,
The Roman Catholic Church, the Eastern Orthodox Church, and most of the Reformed denominations teach that doctrine. Amillennialism denies the literal fulfillment of the prophecies of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.
Besides, The amillennial doctrine came into the Catholic Church by St. Augustine. He in turn got it from being associated with Manichaeanism. He may also have gotten it from Origen who got it from Clement of Alexandria. Alexandria, Egypt is also where the trinity doctrine was brought by Athanasius to Nicaea.
In respect to this,
For other uses, see Millenarianism. Premillennialism, in Christian eschatology, is the belief that Jesus will physically return to the Earth (the Second Coming) before the Millennium, a literal thousand-year golden age of peace.
In addition,
Protestant Reformed amillennialists do believe that eschatological precision and confidence will come to the Church in history. In fact, they believe that this precision has already come to the church in history. It has come to the church as represented by the Protestant Reformed Churches.
