Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A seven headed ten horned red Dragon, with a seductive Harlot called Babylon riding on its back; stars falling from the sky with the earth being destroyed; a world ruler setting up a global economy and demanding that the whole world worship him as god; Jesus returning to the earth to destroy this world leader (the "Antichrist"), and all his followers, as well as the world as we know it; really? Really? Does it make any sense? Is it scientifically believable? And if we think it is believable, which of the hundreds of interpretations and scenarios are we supposed to believe? Revelation Revisited is the product of over 10 years and thousands of hours of analysis and evaluation, and research on the subject. This admittedly involved some disillusionment with a host of interpretations and theories and scenarios. It represents an attempt to implement and adhere to certain rules of interpretation and exegesis and logic. It required an intentional attempt to put aside personal biases and doctrinal presuppositions in order to let the text speak for itself. It also is what emerges from applying two other principles which are unique to biblical exegesis and interpretation. The first is to let scripture interpret scripture. The amazing and little recognized reality is that even the very cryptic passages and somewhat bizarre symbology are actually interpreted and often explained elsewhere in scripture. For example, the various beasts featured in Revelation are actually interpreted and explained in the Old Testament prophetic book of Daniel (and vice versa). Attempts to understand and explain Revelation, or Daniel, without a familiarity with, understanding of, and reference to the rest of both Old and New Testament prophetic scripture, are doomed to fail to produce accurate interpretations - as has historically been the case. The findings and interpretations and scenarios articulated in this commentary have areas of commonality and agreement with many other mainstream works (inasmuch as they are all futurists and to varying degrees literalists). But there are also significant and consequential differences with each of them. The implicit message of many of these more famous authors and their works, is that the revelations and frightening descriptions found in the book are actually not very relevant to the Church today, because she won't even be here when they all will be occurring. Thus the most important messages of the book are mostly missed and almost negated with respect to their intended impact, that we need to live differently in light of these things, especially as we see them happening in our world today. A more accurate and realistic interpretation of the book tells us that we need to see what is happening today in light of what was predicted in scripture, and live our lives accordingly. Moreover, we need to be passing on to the next generation the truths about what to expect in our future and theirs. While we are promised deliverance from the wrath of God to be poured out on Satan and his followers, we are not promised deliverance from what God describes as a time of testing and tribulation for His church. Those who choose to believe the more palatable and comfortable teaching that Christ will come to take out His church before the Antichrist appears, may very well fail to recognize the Antichrist when he does appear, and scriptures warns many will be deceived by him. People today need to hear this truth proclaimed. This is book 2 of 4 volumes.

Miles provides this book as a means to encourage Christians to prepare themselves for what is coming, and to hopefully find peace when the end arrives.

This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pretribulation Rapture Theory and Dispensationalism Revisited reviews and critiques a confusing array of popular theories that address the return of Jesus Christ and the churchs rapture. It proposes that a clarifying approach rests in letting Scripture interpret Scripture, which yields a simpler, more natural, and consistent explanation of the pretribulation rapture and dispensationalism. Drawing upon thousands of hours of Bible study, J. Mike Byrd presents an analysis and a related proposal that avoid both unthinking conformity to popular notions and oversimplification for the sake of palatability. The Pretribulation Rapture Theory and Dispensationalism Revisited addresses methods of interpretation, defines dispensationalism and the Dispensational Principle, examines the scriptural testimony surrounding the day of the Lord and the day of Gods wrath, surveys the issues regarding imminence, and discusses the rapture, the resurrection, and Christs second coming. If you wonder what Scripture clearly teaches about the this worlds demise, the end of human existence, and the onset of Gods sure and certain work to establish his reign, then The Pretribulation Rapture Theory and Dispensationalism Revisited should offer you the scripturally grounded review, analysis, and explanation you need to understand the Scriptures teachings on these ultimate issues.

Download or read book In the Beginning Was the State written by Adi M. Ophir and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2022-12-06 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores God’s use of violence as depicted in the Hebrew Bible. Focusing on the Pentateuch, it reads biblical narratives and codes of law as documenting formations of theopolitical imagination. Ophir deciphers the logic of divine rule that these documents betray, with a special attention to the place of violence within it. The book draws from contemporary biblical scholarship, while also engaging critically with contemporary political theory and political theology, including the work of Walter Benjamin, Giorgio Agamben, Jan Assmann, Regina Schwartz, and Michael Walzer. Ophir focuses on three distinct theocratic formations: the rule of disaster, where catastrophes are used as means of governance; the biopolitical rule of the holy, where divine violence is spatially demarcated and personally targeted; and the rule of law where divine violence is vividly remembered and its return is projected, anticipated, and yet postponed, creating a prolonged lull for the text’s present. Different as these formations are, Ophir shows how they share an urform that anticipates the main outlines of the modern European state, which has monopolized the entire globe. A critique of the modern state, the book argues, must begin in revisiting the deification of the state, unpacking its mostly repressed theological dimension.

Download or read book A Revelation Story Revealed written by Dr. T. R. Lawson and published by LifeRich Publishing. This book was released on 2023-08-02 with total page 563 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his second book, “A Revelation Story Revealed”, Dr. T.R. Lawson reveals why he chose to write his first book, “A Revelation Story”, as he did. He takes the reader through each chapter of his previous book, explaining his thinking behind the writing choices he made and providing back up scriptures for them. While his first book was a fictional story, this book addresses much of the scripture which has to do with end-time events. Because the Book of Revelation is much like a jig saw puzzle with many pieces that must be properly fitted together, Dr. Lawson takes the reader on a line-by-line, chapter-by-chapter journey through it. “A Revelation Story Revealed” includes 28 Microstudies which are a treasure trove of scripturally backed studies that go into detail about various subjects including: “All About 666”; “Demotion Theory”; “The Great Tribulation”; “The Parable of 10 Virgins”; “Nebuchadnezzar’s Dream and Mystery Babylon”; “ The Doctrine of Balaam”; “Spiritual Switchism”; “Spiritual Maturity Theory”, and more. Dr. Lawson also includes his personal testimony, and the special sign God gave him which reveals a hidden trend throughout the Bible. Believing that as of December 6th, 2017, when the U.S. officially recognized Jerusalem as the official capital of Israel, the timeclock for the last generation has started, he feels called of God to be a specific voice to this last generation, as validated by his God-given sign. For any who don’t know the Lord, he invites you to come and know Him, and to personally experience His free gift of salvation. For those who do know the Lord, he encourages you to learn how to walk in spiritual maturity and overcome the evil one. This will be especially important in the coming days as we draw closer to the coming of the Lord and stand against the ever-increasing spiritual darkness that seeks to overtake the world.

Download or read book The Great Tribulation written by Richard Guthrie and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014-12-12 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The end times contain many exciting events we are all familiar with and think we fully understand. The appearance and domination of the Antichrist throughout the world. The rise and global domination of the "Revised Roman Empire," resulting in a One World Government. The Mark of the Beast that makes trade impossible anywhere on the Earth. The universal devastation wrecked by the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. The appearance of the spiritual harlot of Mystery Babylon, and the end time false religion. However, consider the following: - What if the Antichrist will not become the universal or worldwide leader? - What if the Mark of the Beast is regional, rather than global? - What if there is no "Revised Roman Empire"? - What if the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse have already been loosed? - What if Mystery Babylon could never be the Roman Catholic Church? - Who did Jesus identify as the Mystery Babylon of Revelation? - What if the Twelfth Imam, the Islamic Messiah, is slain in the rebuilt Jewish Temple? - Why is it impossible to know the identity of the Antichrist until certain events unfold? - Why are the dates of the Rapture and that of the Second Coming both "unknowable"? - Who is left to enter into the Millennial Kingdom if there's a Post-Tribulational Rapture? - Why are the identities of the two end-time prophets "unknowable"? - What country is poised to play a major role within these end-time events? In a detailed and thorough analysis of Scripture, The Great Tribulation! explores these and many more questions related to the end-time events in a step-by-step approach. Using a literal interpretation of Scripture, this eschatological study is unsurpassed in detail for the knowledgeable Bible student and yet remains basic and straightforward for the novice.

Download or read book The Acts of John written by Pieter J. Lalleman and published by Peeters Publishers. This book was released on 1998 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was defended as a dissertation in Groningen (1998). The first monograph in the series, it studies the Acts of John in its second-century context and sheds new light on the text, which was probably written in Asia Minor before the year 150 AD. Lalleman shows that both the Gnostic and the non-Gnostic sections of the Acts of John owe much more to the canonical books of the New Testament than has been assumed. The enigma of the Gnostic section is solved by the discovery that it forms the second stage of initiation into a Gnostic form of Christianity. Read in this way, both sections of the Acts of John turn out to be important steps on the trajectory from the Fourth Gospel to Gnosticism. Penetrating investigations of the Christology and the attitude towards asceticism in the Acts of John complete the book.
