Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: RELIGION/SPIRITUALITY The Lord Jesus said there will be signs at the End Time. No one knows the exact day or hour, but there are many redflag and discernable indications that time truly is drawing nigh. The book, Jesus Rapture Is Coming Soon lists many of the moral, political, scientific, and environmental events taking shape today that clearly validates the very signs Jesus prophesied. Those who have eyes that see and ears that hear have the spiritual awareness to prepare for this apocalypse as foretold in the Book of Revelation. Many say, Its been thousands of years since Jesus spoke of the End-Time signs. Little do they know that a thousand years of man is only one day of the Lords time. To break it down even further, one second of the Lords time is equal to 4.22 days of the human clock. Our life here on earth is like a blade of grass. We can be stepped upon by a multitude of death-like situations. Being prepared to meet thy maker is second to nothing in the world. Knowing some of the signs of the End Time and becoming close to the Lord Jesus brings His peace, joy and assurance in ones life here and the hereafter. In conclusion, no one knows the day or hour of his or her own life on earth. Would it not be wise to mentally and spiritually prepare your heart, mind, soul and spirit for the possible now --- as well as for the End Time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rapture--or the belief that Jesus' living followers will, at some point, join him forever while others do not--is an important but contested doctrine among evangelicals. Scholars generally hold one of three perspectives on the timing and circumstances of the rapture, all of which are presented in this important volume of the Counterpoints series, Three Views on the Rapture: Alan D. Hultberg (PhD, Trinity International University and professor of New Testament at Talbot School of Theology) explains the Pre-Wrath view. Craig Blaising (PhD, Dallas Theological Seminary and president of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary) defends the Pre-Tribulation view. Douglas Moo (PhD, University of St. Andrews and professor of New Testament at Wheaton College) sets forth the Post-Tribulation view. Each author provides a substantive explanation of his position, which is critiqued by the other two authors. A thorough introduction gives a historical overview of the doctrine of the rapture and its effects on the church. The interactive and fair-minded format of the Counterpoints series allows readers to consider the strengths and weaknesses of each view and draw informed, personal conclusions.

Download or read book The Rapture and the Second Coming of Christ written by Jack Hartman and published by Lamplight Ministries. This book was released on 2015-06-01 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some Christians do not understand the difference between the Rapture of the Church and the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. The Bible teaches that Jesus Christ will descend from heaven with a blast of a trumpet. All Christians on earth will be caught up into the clouds to meet Jesus and to be with Him throughout eternity. The Bible teaches that a 7-year period of time will occur where God will pour out His wrath on the unbelievers who have rejected the sacrifice of His Son Jesus Christ. This period of time is called the Tribulation. We believe that the Tribulation will occur immediately after the Rapture. We believe that the Second Coming of Christ will occur at the end of the Tribulation. When Jesus returns to earth, all Christians will return with Him. At that time a 1,000-year period of time called the Millennium will commence. During the Millennium, the earth will be in perfect peace. In this book we give a simple and easy-to-understand explanation of the Rapture, the Tribulation, the Second Coming of Christ and the Millennium.

Download or read book The Rapture Exposed written by Barbara R. Rossing and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2007-03-30 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of "The Rapture" -- the return of Christ to rescue and deliver Christians off the earth -- is an extremely popular interpretation of the Bible's Book of Revelation and a jumping-off point for the best-selling "Left Behind" series of books. This interpretation, based on a psychology of fear and destruction, guides the daily acts of thousands if not millions of people worldwide. In The Rapture Exposed, Barbara Rossing argues that this script for the world's future is nothing more than a disingenuous distortion of the Bible. The truth, Rossing argues, is that Revelation offers a vision of God's healing love for the world. The Rapture Exposed reclaims Christianity from fundamentalists' destructive reading of the biblical story and back into God's beloved community.

Download or read book Echoing Hope written by Kurt Willems and published by WaterBrook. This book was released on 2021-03-16 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where is Jesus when we need him most? An influential pastor shares how despair can lead us to discover true hope and a deeper relationship with God, helping us emerge stronger and more joyful from times of crisis. “May this careful look at pain in the context of Jesus’s life open up avenues of discovery and healing.”—Mindy Caliguire, cofounder and president of Soul Care We all experience difficulties and hardships. But how can we learn to live richly in the midst of them? And even grow spiritually because of them? The answer is found in the hopeful humanity of Jesus. As the Son of God, Jesus wasn’t exempt from suffering, disappointment, or injustice. He lived in the real world as a real person. He wept for those he loved. He felt hunger and thirst. He endured temptation, betrayal, and ridicule. He died after being unjustly tortured. And somehow through it all, he embodied hope—by defeating death and opening a new world of life for us. In Echoing Hope, influential pastor and blogger Kurt Willems reveals how understanding the humanity of Jesus can radically transform our identity and empower us to step into our pain-filled world in a new way. Combining rich theological insight with personal stories and practices for response, he shows how we can overcome despair and encounter the beautiful potential of our lives.

Download or read book Left Behind and Loving It written by D. Mark Davis and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2011-08-15 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Left Behind and Loving It is a cheeky critique of popular writings about the end times. Rather than presenting a steroid-buffed Jesus wrapped in an American flag and "coming again in clouds of gunfire," Left Behind and Loving It invites readers to approach some of the most controversial and scary portions of the Scriptures with the utter confidence that "God's steadfast love endures forever." Rather than asserting a hope premised on a few chosen ones escaping the world, Left Behind and Loving It argues that if it is Jesus who is to return (and not his evil twin), then the second coming has redemption written all over it. Many today cannot accept the escapist, violent, end-of-the-world scenario envisioned by "Left Behind" theology. Left Behind and Loving It invites readers not to fear but to trust in God's steadfast love and look at the finitude of the world with hope in an infinitely loving God.
