Be sure and check out The Orange Mailman's new blog. Orange is an Historic Pre-Millennialist. (I think that's what I am too...still trying to take it all in and figure it all out.) If you've never read him, you will not be disappointed, especially if you love the study of prophecy. You will have to put your thinking cap on though because he will stretch you. Hey Orange, I was looking at the Lord's instruction on prayer in Matthew 6. Do you know what amillennialists do with "Thy kingdom come?" Just wonderin'...
Totally off topic: Mai is at 36 weeks, 5 days. She had an ultrasound today. Charlie is at about 5 lbs. 10 oz. He is now bigger than his daddy was when he was born. We are starting to get a little excited around here! And so happy for Karin. She is going to be a gramma of a little boy a week or so into the new year! Daniel, Charlie, and ? Oh the fun!

Hey Kathy-
Many A-Mills concede that there will be a kingdom here on earth, but no millennium in between the coming of Christ and the great white throne judgment. Many also discount any involvement of the physical nation of Israel since they believe that the church has received all of the blessings originally promised to Israel.
But probably more importantly, among Covenant Theologians, is the recognition that Jesus established His kingdom at His first coming and the disciples lived in that kingdom reality. To pray for God's kingdom to come is to pray that His will would be done. When we do the will of God, His kingdom is at work here on earth. They tend to focus on the kingdom in the here and now rather than the future. Which is really not a bad thing in my opinion.
Have fun and stay busy - Luke 19:13
