Book excerpt: The first half of tribulation has proved challenging for the A-Team. James, the general of all armies and member of the inner circle of Nefas Quietus, is beginning to recognize some unusual personality traits that have him convinced that Nef is not who he claims to be. James's recall has brought to light many of the end-time teachings of his best friend, Chris. He has stepped up his clandestine activities with his son Brad, who is co-leader of the Smyrna church with CJ, the church that Nef has coined as the undergrounders. James has directed the defense of the western community during the release of the four horses, seven seals, and six of the seven trumpets introduced in the first half of tribulation. He relishes in playing the Judas of the twelve disciples of Nef. James’s apprehension for the safety of his family has caused concern because of Nef's tenacious search for the undergrounders’ leaders. Cindy also has noticed a distinct alteration to Nef's personality. His quick explosion of anger and grandiose attitude have made Cindy anxious. However, her loyalty toward Nef has not wavered. She remains a faithful member of Nef's inner circle. Aaron has guided his constituents through the building of the Temple and has held his place on the Israeli Knesset and accepts Nef as a friend to Israel. Chris has been in Heaven since he was raptured. He has petitioned Jesus to allow him to have a part in the fulfillment of prophecies and to help bring the rest of his A-Team family to the realization that eternity is only available through Jesus, the true Christ. At the close of The Rise of Abaddon we saw CJ being called by God to a mission in Israel, and in Last Call we see Revelation come to full completion.

Download or read book Revelation the Last Call written by Mary Smith and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014-09-18 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revelation was given to us by Jesus Himself, so that we can be sure of the rest of the story. He loved all of us SO much, He died and rose again to save us. He is here, in every progression of the end of time, offering His personal invitation to repent and accept salvation; it is the Last Call. In our world of mistrust, violence, pain and tears, He is here offering relief from all of it; He is completely trustworthy to complete it. Revelation has a very simple message for each one of us: Repent and accept Jesus as Savior, and spend eternity in a wonderful, spectacular City of God where the Tree of Life sustains us. The Last Call is a gripping interpretation of the last book of the Bible. It simplifies the message of a portion of Scripture that is daunting and confusing to many Christians. It offers a stirring call to believers and nonbelievers alike to come to terms with the earth-shaking events portrayed in the Apocalypse. Leonard Allen, author of The Contemporaries Meet the Classics on Prayer

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The end of the world… How do you react to that thought? Does it make you afraid or nervous? Excited? At peace? Or do you simply try not to think about it? The apostle John was privileged to preview the end of the world in a dream. While in exile on the island of Patmos, he experienced an amazing vision that gave him a glimpse of heaven. He saw the final battle between good and evil. He saw God's justice.

It promises to appeal to a diverse audience that appreciates a literary roller coaster of twists and turns.

Download or read book Revelations written by Elaine Pagels and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2012-03-06 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A startling exploration of the history of the most controversial book of the Bible, by the bestselling author of Beyond Belief. Through the bestselling books of Elaine Pagels, thousands of readers have come to know and treasure the suppressed biblical texts known as the Gnostic Gospels. As one of the world's foremost religion scholars, she has been a pioneer in interpreting these books and illuminating their place in the early history of Christianity. Her new book, however, tackles a text that is firmly, dramatically within the New Testament canon: The Book of Revelation, the surreal apocalyptic vision of the end of the world . . . or is it? In this startling and timely book, Pagels returns The Book of Revelation to its historical origin, written as its author John of Patmos took aim at the Roman Empire after what is now known as "the Jewish War," in 66 CE. Militant Jews in Jerusalem, fired with religious fervor, waged an all-out war against Rome's occupation of Judea and their defeat resulted in the desecration of Jerusalem and its Great Temple. Pagels persuasively interprets Revelation as a scathing attack on the decadence of Rome. Soon after, however, a new sect known as "Christians" seized on John's text as a weapon against heresy and infidels of all kinds-Jews, even Christians who dissented from their increasingly rigid doctrines and hierarchies. In a time when global religious violence surges, Revelations explores how often those in power throughout history have sought to force "God's enemies" to submit or be killed. It is sure to appeal to Pagels's committed readers and bring her a whole new audience who want to understand the roots of dissent, violence, and division in the world's religions, and to appreciate the lasting appeal of this extraordinary text.

Download or read book Visual Theology written by Tim Challies and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in a visual culture. Today, people increasingly rely upon visuals to help them understand new and difficult concepts. The rise and stunning popularity of the Internet infographic has given us a new way in which to convey data, concepts and ideas. But the visual portrayal of truth is not a novel idea. Indeed, God himself used visuals to teach truth to his people. The tabernacle of the Old Testament was a visual representation of man's distance from God and God's condescension to his people. Each part of the tabernacle was meant to display something of man's treason against God and God's kind response. Likewise, the sacraments of the New Testament are visual representations of man's sin and God's response. Even the cross was both reality and a visual demonstration. As teachers and lovers of sound theology, Challies and Byers have a deep desire to convey the concepts and principles of systematic theology in a fresh, beautiful and informative way. In this book, they have made the deepest truths of the Bible accessible in a way that can be seen and understood by a visual generation.
