What is important is the message of hope which accompanies the proclamation of Divine Judgement. Jesus repeatedly urges his disciples to ...

However, as Susan Hylen argues, women in the culture enacted these virtues in a variety of ways, including active leadership in households, associations, and cities.

The book of Revelation says that half of the world’s population is going to be wiped out. At current numbers, that means three or four billion people will die. Imagine most of the world’s great cities destroyed, their shiny skyscrapers reduced to piles of smouldering rubble. And all this happens in the book of Revelation before we even get to the battle of Armageddon. Before that, Revelation says there is going to be a one-world government headed by Antichrist. No one will be able to buy or sell without having the ‘mark of the beast’ (666) on their right hand or forehead. Those who ...

What if there was a world of both wonders and horrors, a world that we can barely imagine, which was actually the reality at one time in our ancient past? What if there really had been a near-perfect world marred with terrible violence, slavery, corruption, wickedness, injustice, brutality, and unimaginable perversions, and that was the civilization that men, women, and children had to live in?
