In this first part of a series designed to help us understand different End Times views—particularly of the Millennial Kingdom—Dan Jarms and John Gardner discuss the essentials of the End Times, emphasizing the importance of a high view of Scripture and non-negotiable beliefs. They highlight the necessity of Christ's return, the reality of judgment and eternal consequences, and the promise of a bodily resurrection and a new heavens and new earth. They stress the importance of evangelism, driven by the belief in a real hell and a real heaven. The conversation underscores the unity of believers in these core tenets, despite differing views on the millennium. They conclude by encouraging active faith and social engagement until Jesus' return.
