The essence of eschatology is the defeat of death. This is the true meaning of victorious eschatology. Unless and until death is defeated, there is no victory.
Unfortunately, many futurist doctrines found in Christian eschatology support a defeated eschatology? Why?
Because they believe eschatology is about removing us from this physical word through the defeat of physical death.
Jesus' words to the Pharisees show the fallacy of this claim. He said, Most assuredly, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death. (John 8:51)
The Pharisees Object To Victorious Eschatology
The Pharisees objected to Christ's words by appealing to the most revered man of faith in all Jewish history, Abraham. They knew that the scriptures taught that Abraham believed God and it was accounted to him for righteousness.
Their logic and reasoning was, if Abraham is dead, then Jesus you have a demon. The funny thing about this reasoning is that all futurist eschatologies use it.
Amillenialism, Dispensational Premillennialism, Historicism, and even Partial Preterism choose the side of the Pharisees against the words of Christ.
