Moorhead offers some brilliant observations about the legacy of postmillennialism and the human need for a definitive eschaton.\" -Publishers WeeklyIn the 19th century American Protestants firmly believed that when progress had run its course, there would be a Second Coming of Christ, the world would come to a supernatural End, and the predictions in the Apocalypse would come to pass. During the years covered in James Moorhead's study, however, moderate and liberal mainstream Protestants transformed this postmillennialism into a hope that this world would be the scene for limitless spiritual improvement and temporal progress. The sense of an End vanished with the arrival of the new millennium.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51699739296032,"sku":"NEW0253218578","price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71_H7nb50bL.jpg?v=1779385713","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/world-without-end-mainstream-american-protestant-visions-of-the-last-things-1880-1925-religion-in-north-america-0253218578","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
