For those who say they are neither Calvinists nor Arminians, now there is Provisionism, a relatively new theological view that is gaining popularity among Southern and Independent Baptists through the work of Leighton Flowers, a member of First Baptist Church of Richardson, Texas. Though this doctrine is exceedingly similar to Arminianism and Semi-pelagianism, it also has some distinct differences, particularly on eternal security and prevenient grace. Provisionism emphasizes the sufficiency of the gospel when it is empowered by the Holy Spirit to enable a response from any person who hears the gospel call (John 6:63; Hebrews 4:12).

Core Tenets of Provisionism
Provisionism can be summarized by the acronym PROVIDE:

People sin: Sin has separated all from fellowship with God.
Responsible: Humans are able to respond to God's appeals for reconciliation.
Open door: Anyone may enter by faith; whosoever will may come to God’s open arms.
Vicarious atonement: Christ's atoning sacrifice provides a way for anyone to be saved.
Illuminating grace: God's grace reveals truth clearly so that all can know and respond in faith.
Destroyed: Those who do not believe and resist the Holy Spirit face destruction.
Eternal security: True believers are secure in their salvation eternally.

That sounds really nice, but, except for the E (Eternal Security) it is all about man saving himself, which makes it Arminianism by another name. Its first article is a half-truth and that destroys its entire premise. Sin has separated all of us from fellowship with God, but it has also rendered natural man DEAD to spiritual things, leaving him unable to respond without being born again. Ephesians 2:1 "And you hath he quickened, who were DEAD in trespasses and sins..." How can a dead man respond? By being quickened (made alive). Ephesians 2:5-7 "Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace you are saved;) And has raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus; That in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus." A quickening means a resurrection; the dead being made alive.

In the providence of God, during one of my trips to Israel, a book, by a fellow Baptist pastor I knew of, caught my eye in a shop in Bethlehem. Its author, Vendyl Jones, had gone to Israel to study at the Hebrew University only to get involved in the 1967 and 1982 wars, helped the Israeli government develop a military tank, and was granted dual citizenship. If that was not enough, he embraced Judaism's doctrine of Noahide Law and Kabbalistic mysticism, established an archaeological research foundation, and became involved in Judaism's agenda to revive the Sanhedrin and temple sacrifices by searching for the ashes of the red heifer. Claims were made that the Indiana Jones character, in the movie Raiders of the Lors Ark, was patterned after Jones, but he denied that he made the assertion. It appears to me that he married a dispensational view of eschatology (the study of last things) with Judaism's view of Jesus, meaning that he believed in different means of salvation for Jews and Gentiles, called "the plural covenant", and that disturbed me immensely.

The reign of Christ as an earthly kingdom is one of the most divisive subjects in Evangelical Christianity. Most of us agree that there will be a second advent and an earthly kingdom, but, unfortunately, we differ widely on the details. It should be said that those who differ with our view, no matter which view it is, do not have horns; they are not our enemies; they are our brothers and sisters in Christ. Our differences should never drive us to an attitude of contempt or be made into tests of fellowship that create fences between us, and for that reason we usually avoid eschatology and keep the discussion between us more agreeable. Maybe there is some wisdom in that, but it robs us of opportunities to share in Gospel coalitions that have many blessings attached. The end is near. Greater and more severe tests are coming on every believer as time goes by. I sincerely believe we are all going to need each other.

An excerpt from page 180 of The Revelation:

John's third vision begins with greater details of "Mystery Babylon" the world's economic system personified as a gloriously dressed harlot, sitting on the blasphemous antichrist and committing political fornication with the leaders of the world. God will shut it down by causing a civil war among its rich magnates who will turn on the antichrist resulting in a total collapse of his heinous system. Jesus will appear as conqueror in the clouds with all the saints of heaven, raise the dead in Christ, cast the antichrist and false prophet into a lake of fire, destroy the armies of the world that gather against him, bind the devil for a thousand years and rule and reign on earth with all of his redeemed.

An excerpt from The Revelation, page 179-180:
God announced the emergence of two martyrs (witnesses) who will prophecy in sackcloth against whom the beast, that ascended out of the bottomless pit, will make war and kill; their bodies will lie unburied until the parousia. The Apostle Paul called their murderer "the man of sin" and "son of perdition; who opposeth and exaulteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped." He is described as rising up out of the population and given unparalleled power by the devil. He will be an impersonator of Christ by appearing to suffer a fatal wound and rise from the dead; this will be sufficient to gain the confidence of the entire unbelieveing world, and God will allow him to create a world-religion blended with a world-government, called Babylon. (In 1 Peter 5:13, the apostle referred to "the church that is at Babylon", seemingly meaning pagan Rome, Christ's greatest enemy.) The devil will bring up a second beast called the false prophet, whose function is to endorse the antichrist and draw people to him through signs and wonders. The antichrist will blaspheme the true God and bring great persecution on his elect.
