Description

As the Protestant Reformation identified the pope as Antichrist, the popish church of Rome began to develop alternative eschatologies in order to take the heat off the pope. In this treatise, Downame advances the classic Protestant position against Cardinal Bellarmine's arguments that the Antichrist would rule for 3.5 years, and sit in a material temple in Jerusalem, and that Enoch and Elijah would return to earth physically - ideas that perpetuate in dispensationalism today.
