I have recently been studying eschatology and have been looking at the main views of eschatology.
So far, I have found four (I apologize in advance if I have misrepresented your view. I would appreciate any corrections, but that is beyond the scope of this question.):
Amillenialism: Jesus' Ascension began the "Church Age/Millennial Kingdom"; this age will be one of peace but will eventually turn into a period of tribulation against the Christians. Armageddon, the Rapture, Jesus' Return, and the White Throne will end this age and usher in eternity.
Historic Pre-Millennialism: Jesus' Ascension began the "Church Age"; this age will be one of peace but will eventually turn into a period of tribulation against the Christians. Armageddon, the Rapture, Jesus' Return, and the Bottomless Pit will end this age and will begin Jesus' physical reign on earth of exactly 1000 years. The reign will end with the Great Rebellion and the White Throne to usher in eternity.
Post-Millennialism: The period between Jesus' Ascension and the Destruction of Jerusalem will be the Tribulation. The "Church Age" began in A.D. 70; at some point, the earth will develop a "Christian" culture ushering in a spiritual millennium of peace. The Great Rebellion, the Rapture, Jesus' Return, and the White Throne Pit will end the millennium and begin eternity.
Dispensational Pre-Millennialism: Jesus' Ascension began the "Church Age"; this age will end unexpectedly with the Rapture. A literal tribulation of 7 years will begin on earth. Armageddon, Jesus' Return, and the Bottomless Pit will end the tribulation, and Jesus will begin his physical reign on earth of exactly 1000 years. The reign will end with the Great Rebellion and the White Throne to usher in eternity.

What view did the early church have? Did they hold on to one of these views or did they hold on to a view that I have not listed?
I appreciate the help.
