Download or read book Understanding End Times Prophecy written by Paul Benware and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2006-05-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Christians think of end times prophecy as a gigantic, intimidating puzzle -- difficult to piece together and impossible to figure out. But every puzzle can be solved if you approach it the right way. Paul Benware compares prophecy to a picture puzzle. Putting the edge pieces together first builds the 'framework' that makes it easier to fit the other pieces in their place. According to Benware, the framework for eschatology is the biblical covenants. He begins his comprehensive survey by explaining the major covenants. Then he discusses several different interpretations of end times prophecy. Benware digs into the details of the Rapture, the Great Tribulation, the judgements and resurrections, and the millennial kingdom. But he also adds a unique, personal element to the study, answering questions as: -Why study bible prophecy? -What difference does it make if I'm premillenial or amillenial? If what the Bible says about the future puzzles you, Understanding End Times Prophecy will help you put together the pieces and see the big picture.

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.

He displays a remarkable understanding of King’s individual role in the civil rights movement. . . . Oates’s biography helps us appreciate how sorely King is missed.” —Eric Foner, New York Times Book Review

Download or read book When You Hear the Trumpet Sound written by Dave Bates and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2015-12-21 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With our economy in peril, how far will those in power go to regain control? Big brother has become an enraged, out-of-control monster. Many facets of society are affected, but none more than the Christian community: churches closed, congregations scattered, and Bibles collected-replaced by political correctness. Evangelical witnessing is a crime with conservative Christians considered as criminals, facing arrest. Meanwhile, many rely on government housing, subsidies, and entitlements, just to survive. Individual retirement plans and pensions are federalized. Health care is restricted based on age, religious preference, and political affiliation. Cash and credit cards are a thing of the past as the Euro is the common currency. Personal identification and net worth is automated and instantaneous. Government agencies have authority as judge, jury, and executioner, delegated to local enforcement levels.Could these issues from When You Hear The Trumpet Sound overwhelm us?You decide! Dave Bates has always loved our country and is an avid reader. Over 22 years in the U.S. Army provided a wide variety of places, experiences, and people to fuel his already vivid imagination. Growing up in Litchfield, CT, he attended church regularly with his family. After moving to Florida, he met Pam, who told him, "I'm happy because I love Jesus." That changed his life! He'd known about the God of the Bible but didn't have a personal relationship with the Lord. When Pam and her family returned to Seattle, he was left to study his Bible alone-to discover the love of Jesus and accept Him personally as his Lord and Savior. Dave's fascination with Bible prophesies, particularly the Last Days, inspired him to write When You Hear The Trumpet Sound. He and Pam were married in 1973. Having been blessed with two sons and seven grandchildren, they live in Ozark, Alabama."

Download or read book Exporting the Rapture written by Donald H. Akenson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Apocalyptic millennialism is one of the most powerful strands in evangelical Christianity. It is not a single belief, but across many powerful evangelical groups there is general adhesion to faith in the physical return of Jesus in the Second Coming, the affirmation of a Rapture heavenward of "saved" believers, a millennium of peace under the rule of Jesus and his saints and, eventually, a final judgement and entry into deep eternity. In Discovering the End of Time (2016) Donald Harman Akenson traced the emergence of the primary packaging of modern apocalyptic millennialism back to southern Ireland in the 1820s and '30s. In Exporting the Rapture, he documents for the first time how the complex theological construction that has come to dominate modern evangelical thought was enhulled in an organizational system that made it exportable from the British Isles to North America-- and subsequently around the world. A key figure in this process was John Nelson Darby who was at first a formative influence on evangelical apocalypticism in Ireland; then the volatile central figure in Brethren apocalypticism throughout the British Isles; and also a crusty but ultimately very successful missionary to the United States and Canada. Akenson emphasizes that, as strong a personality as John Nelson Darby was, the real story is that he became a vector for the transmission of a terrifically complex and highly seductive ideological system from the old world to the new. So beguiling, adaptable, and compelling was the new Dispensational system that Darby injected into North-American evangelicalism that it continued to spread logarithmically after his death. By the 1920s, the system had become the doctrinal template of the fundamentalist branch of North-American evangelicalism and the distinguishing characteristic of the bestselling Scofield Bible.

Book excerpt: The Knowing the Bible series is a resource designed to help Bible readers better understand and apply God’s Word. These 12-week studies lead participants through books of the Bible and are made up of four basic components: (1) reflection questions that help readers engage the text at a deeper level; (2) “Gospel Glimpses” that highlight the gospel of grace throughout the book; (3) “Whole-Bible Connections” that show how any given passage connects to the Bible’s overarching story of redemption, culminating in Christ; and (4) “Theological Soundings” that identify how historic orthodox doctrines are taught or reinforced throughout Scripture. With contributions from an array of influential pastors and church leaders, these gospel-centered studies will help Christians see and cherish the message of God’s grace on every page of the Bible. Over the course of 12 weeks, this study connects Paul's letters to the Thessalonians to the lives of Christians today. These epistles encourage readers by reminding them of the salvation God will bring to all those whom he has called—strengthening them to pursue lives of holiness and love as they anticipate Jesus's return.

Book excerpt: Jim Burruss shares why Revelation is an extremely motivational book. He believes it is the most motivational one in the Bible-even though it has been, and continues to be, one of the least studied Bible books. Therefore, most people only "know" what someone else has told them about Revelation.. .and not the result of personal study, although the apostle Paul tells each of us in 2 Timothy 2: 15, "Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth" (NASB). Most people are aware there are many conflicting conclusions and teachings circulating regarding the book of Revelation. In this easy-to-understand commentary, you will learn the importance of studying the Bible for yourself, paying attention to what it says, and avoid speculating about the meaning. In The Seventh Trumpet Has Sounded, Jim shares some conclusions that may pique your interest and cause you to reconsider what you may have "understood" in the past. Some subjects are Armageddon, the 1000-year reign of Christ, the powers of the devil, the 144,000, identity of "666," and the "last days."
