Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume, the first of six, devotes serious attention to the foundational questions: (1) What is a useful approach to Book of Mormon geography? (2) What contributions can archaeology, anthropology, and ethnohistory make to Book of Mormon questions? (3) What constituted Nephite theology in these first generations? (4) What were Mormon's sources and how did he organize his work? One of the most exciting insights of this volume is its reconstruction of the politics behind the Deuteronomic reforms of King Josiah. These reforms deemphasized an earlier Messiah-centered theology that more fully acknowledged the council of the gods, the war in heaven, Yahweh's feminine consort, originally worshipped in the temple, and Isaiah, the poet-prophet who foretold the Messiah's coming. Did Lehi's acceptance of this earlier, Christ-centered religion explain the death threats against him in Jerusalem? If Laman and Lemuel accepted those reforms, did this intrafamily disagreement produce a thousand years of hostility between Nephites and Lamanites in the New World? Other contributions of this volume are a fresh look at what the Book of Mormon actually says about skin color, the pressures of local polytheistic culture on Nephite theology, and the Isaiah-based egalitarian ideal of Nephite culture."--Bk. jkt.

Download or read book The TWO WITNESSES Vol II written by Douglas W. Krieger and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2014-10-29 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The identity of the Two Witnesses, and when they shall appear upon the prophetic scene, takes an eschatological back seat to what they actually do. We have entered the cosmic courtroom of the Almighty--this is the purpose of John's Revelation. The Lamb is coming in judgment and His judgment is altogether righteous; however, prior to the verdict and subsequent sentencing, the witnesses must come forth to testify--literally to prophesy. They are not the accused. They are the plaintiffs. These witnesses have been compiling evidence nigh 4,000 years against an implacable foe who knows he has but a short time. It is time to present the facts. Why? Because literally millions have paid with their very lives. These are the slain--martyred; whose blood cries out from beneath the altar to be avenged. On trial is a thief and a robber, a murderer from the very beginning of history--one who came to steal, to kill and to destroy. He has done everything imaginable to intimidate the witnesses, lest he be convicted of his high crimes and misdemeanors against God and humankind. His identity is known to all. The trial, although taking place for centuries wherein scores of testimonies have been given by countless souls from every tribe, nation, tongue, people and even from kings against this Destroyer and Desolator--has entered its formidable and final seven-year phase. Alas! From the murky abyss arises a figure to accuse the brethren one more time--but they are not on trial--the Devil, Satan, the Dragon, the Beast and False Prophet are and all they "who dwell on the earth" are on trial. It will appear throughout this text that fear and intimidation--you can call it "witness tampering to the uttermost" will and has been incessantly used by this crafty deceiver who repeatedly either murdered the faithful followers or tried to bribe them from giving testimony against his evil cabal. The word for "witness" in the Bible's Greek has its root in the word "martyr" - for these witnesses upon giving the culmination of their testimony against the Wicked One's Great City, Babylon . . . against his apostate religious, exploitative commercial and corrupted political system know full-well that if they do so, and they most definitely will, they most likely will have to pay with their lives, so costly will be their disclosures. But they know, as well, a "great cloud of witnesses" have gone on before them; many perished for the same reasons and many of them survived his onslaughts.Eventually, the witnesses are as prophets; willing to tell all and to persuade multitudes to believe there's a better life beyond this temporal pale where true justice and lasting peace abides forevermore."The Two Witnesses" are bigger than life. The closer you move into their history, past, present and future, you inevitably discover that without their unmitigated testimony and final flurry of intimidation, along with their willingness to lay down their lives, if need be, to gain that final climactic verdict, sentence and execution against their foe . . . the more you realize it was worth it all: "Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?"This is not an easy read--it is a theological bombshell whose ramifications at the close of this age are staggering. Today, the Two Olive Trees and the Two Lampstands, so identified as these Two Prophets, Two Witnesses, in Revelation 11, are engaged in a divine drama whose end was prophesied nearly 4,000 years ago, and some say nigh 6,000 years. These two volumes may constitute the magnum opus of Israel and the Church in the Latter Days. The Court is calling forth His witnesses . . . and wouldn't you know it: You might be one of them! Now's no time to run from it--you can't you've been subpoenaed to testify and there's no turning back. You will testify for some 1,260 days with power and authority. Will the witnesses tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you God? YES!

Download or read book The TWO WITNESSES Vol I written by Douglas W. Krieger and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2014-10-29 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weltungschuug is a German word meaning "world view" but more so--how you act based upon your world view. "The Two Witnesses" is a veritable magnum opus regarding the "end of days" relationship between Israel (a.k.a. National Israel and the Jews of the Diaspora) and the "prophetic" Church of the "last days." It will determine your world view and ipso facto, as Francis Schaffer's famous text states: "How Shall We Then Live?" The Eschatology wrought by Dispensationalism heightened among the faithful Israel's peculiar Latter Days' incursion upon the world stage through Zionism's ultimate quest for an "Eretz Israel" - today's State of Israel. Israel's materiality has become a "cup of trembling" to all the nations "round about" and, as well, a theological imbroglio, a veritable Gordian Knot around the Church's neck: Either Israel is naught but a fluke of history, wholly insignificant, a creation of Western idealism gone amok, and worse, nothing more than a guilt-ridden expression devolved into an unjustifiable apartheid state . . . a pariah within democracy and a contradiction of the universal rights of man; in sum, an utter embarrassment to the West interminably complicating Western foreign policy . . . or she persists as the utmost hope lurching toward Messianic deliverance and the miraculous intrusion of the Son of Man within our confused and militarized affairs, righting our Humpty Dumpty back together again wherein peace, justice and harmony takes on a Platonic expression of Magnesia or, better said, that of the New Jerusalem.The two volumes presents a cosmic view of the Two Witnesses announced in Revelation 11--they are not X-Men. Sorry, such a parochial designation is the total antithesis of the Scripture's intent--if you read this, you'll soon find out that the overarching culmination of their JOINT WITNESS comports to a minimum of 4,000 years of human history compacted into the close of this age within the crucible of Daniel's 70th Week. Indeed, replacement theologians and their religious Historicism view of how all this pans out in the end, embrace the notion that Daniel's final Week, the Seventieth Week, terminated shortly after the crucifixion of Jesus--i.e., there is no futurity to Daniel's Week. Alas! Not only is there a gap between the first and second comings of Christ, there is, most definitely such a gap between the 69th and 70th Week of the Daniel 9 cardinal prophecy.What's that got to do with paying your bills? Much in every way. This author who initially saw the identity of the Two Witnesses around 1981 and, subsequently, embarked upon a dialogue with Judaism and then directly with Israeli citizens and officials, went so far as to unite with like-minded Christians and American Jewry (all branches) in drafting what became known as the Washington Declaration--the first ever, as far as we know, of Christians and Jews uniting around the prophetic significance of Israel's in-gathering into their ancient homeland. Over 120 leaders from both communities signed on to the declaration made in Washington, D.C.Notwithstanding this initial outburst, this author found it increasingly difficult to pursue that relationship in that a strong eschatological basis as to WHY and WHEN and HOW that finality could take place within the context of our Weltungschuug and the chasm of separation which existed between the "People of the Book" given the inherent "Messianic tension"--much of which was caused by the theological-eschatological separation caused by dispensationalism itself. As Reggie Kelly states: Distinction, yes - Separation, no! Thus, fast forward thirty-three years: THE TWO WITNESSES...a compendium of writings which have survived these three decades the building of a theological basis for the present and into the immediate future of these, "the end of days." As it turns out, most of you reading this ARE part of the Two Witnesses--best pay close attention... this will challenge your Weltungschuug!

And yet no other New Testament book of the Bible poses more serious and difficult interpretative challenges. John MacArthur will take you through the book, passage by passage, so that you can better understand everything from the historical context to the coming of Christ's Kingdom. The apostle John wrote this letter to the churches in Asia Minor who were feeling the overwhelming effects of persecution from all sides. It was a reminder to them that God saw their hardships, cared about them, and would reward them for their faithfulness. Through the use of vivid imagery, John writes Revelation to reveal the end of human history, the return of Christ, and the establishment of a new heaven and a new earth. John's message of hope in Revelation assures Christians that God is in sovereign control of all past, present, and future events. He encourages believers to trust that Jesus Christ will judge the lost and will rule in ultimate victory over all human and demonic opposition. —ABOUT THE SERIES— The MacArthur Bible Study series is designed to help you study the Word of God with guidance from widely respected pastor and author John MacArthur.

Book excerpt: The Bible's prophesies about the end-times can baffle even the most voracious Bible scholars and theologians.
