The purpose of this article is to show the end-time viewpoint in the writing of Origen who wrote around 232 A.D.

Origen was at Alexandria (185-232)

Origen was at Caesarea (232)


Origen

Certain persons, then, refusing the labour of thinking, and adopting a superficial view of the letter of the law, and yielding rather in some measure to the indulgence of their own desires and lusts, being disciples of the letter alone, are of opinion that the fulfillment of the promises of the future are to be looked for in bodily pleasure and luxury . . . And consequently they say, that after the resurrection there will be marriages, and the begetting of children, imagining to themselves that the earthly city of Jerusalem is to be rebuilt . . . .
