This is just the audio version, I'll spare you of my awkward stage presence.
The Hope of the Church
Will Christ return to reign on this earth?
Amillenialists: No literal millennium
Postmillennialists: Christ literally returns to earth after a long period of peace brought to pass by the success of missionary efforts
Historic premillennialists: Anticipate Christ’s literal return before his literal rule over all the earth.
Dispensational premillennialists: Not one general resurrection and judgment, but two separated by the 1000 year reign of Christ.
Premillennialists: Christ now reigns in the lives of those who recognized him as Lord and he will literally return to earth prior to the millennium.
When will believers meet Christ in the air?
Postmillennialists: Rapture after the millennium
Amillennialists: As Christ returns to the battle of Armageddon Christians are caught up to meet him.
Premillennialists:
Post-tribulationists: Christians may expect to meet Christ at the end of the great seven year period of tribulation.
Mid-tribulationists: Chrisitans will meet Christ in the middle of the tribulation
Historic post-tribulationists: The rapture may occur at any moment.
Pre-tribulationists: The rapture occurs at any moment before the seven years of tribulation.
What happens after death?
“death ends all” (Naturalists, materialists)
“death does not end all”
Impersonal immortality (pantheism)
Reincarnation based on karma (Hindus, Buddhists)
Become invisible to those without minds attuned to psychic force (Spiritualists)
All will be saved (Universalists)
Soul sleeps until bodily resurrection (Christian cults)
Soul consciously exists (Orthodox Christians)
