Showing titles in Christian Eschatology

The second book of Peter has long troubled biblical scholars and interpreters. Not only is its authorship debated, but it seems to predict an imminent Second Coming, making many dispensationalists claim that it can only be understood in light of modern events. In this study, Peter Leithart offers a preterist reading of the epistle, arguing that it describes first-century events and not the end of the world. At the same time, he maintains orthodoxy, avoiding hyper-preterism and affirming the epistle's authenticity.

Dispensationalism is not merely an end-times system. It is, according to the words of well-known advocates, a hermeneutic all by itself. This is why dispensationalism cannot be ignored as if it were a discussion over non-essentials. This book is an anthology of testimonies of those who have left that system behind, explaining how they found a better way to see the Lord Jesus in Scripture.

Christians believe that history is moving toward a dramatic conclusion - that one day Jesus Christ will return in glory to judge the living and the dead. But there seem to be so many different views about how this will happen and when it will take place. How can we make sense of it all? This short, listenable book explains clearly and simply the liberating reality of what the Bible is actually saying about the return of Christ and the end of the world.

For years now, over a Biblical generation (about 40 years), a certain view has been gaining attention in the world of Christianity, a view that has challenged Biblical illiteracy and has encouraged Christians toward finding clarity and consistency regarding the end times. A view that has power and potential to change the confusion within Christ's Church as well as change the world.

The Millennium is one of the most controversial of all Biblical doctrines. It is assumed by most Christians that there is a degree of Christian unity about this doctrine, but, nothing could be further from the truth! Some say we are in the millennium, some say it is yet future. A growing number of Christians believe the millennium is past, and that the enigmatic term refers to the time between Jesus' ministry and the end of the Old Covenant age in AD 70. There is not another book like this anywhere. This changes everything!

COULD GOD RAISE UP A MAN TODAY, as He did in the days of Noah, to warn the world that the Wrath of God is soon going to come upon the Earth? In a world full of lies and propaganda, has God called a man to be a voice of truth for Him in these last days; a Prophet that is actually hearing from God? That has actually seen Jesus? Is the end now coming? Is this the end of the world as we currently know it?

What do you think of when you think about the book of Revelation? Prophecy, apocalypse, rapture? Revelation rarely shows up in the pulpits of mainline Christian churches, and many progressives feel as if Revelation is only for "the end is near" apocalyptics or Christian Nationalists and QAnon theorists. But the book of Revelation offers so much more if we're willing to crack it open in new ways. The End Is the Beginning cuts through the echo chamber of rapture-haunted apocalyptic anxiety with a clear picture of God's persistent love for all that was, and is, and will be.

Dr. David Reagan presents an overview of Bible prophecy concerning the Jewish people. He shows how four prophecies were fulfilled before the beginning of the 20th Century and how seven others were fulfilled in whole or in part during the process of that century. He then presents the myriad of prophecies that are yet to be fulfilled between now and the end of the Lord’s millennial reign. He concludes the book by explaining how the fulfillment of God’s promises to the Jewish people are relevant to Christians today and should serve as a source of great encouragement to them.

Why is the city a battleground of hostile principalities and powers? What is the mission of the church in the city? How can the church be supported in accomplishing that mission? These are the questions that Robert Linthicum treats in his comprehensive and probing biblical theology of the city. In the Bible the city is depicted both as a dwelling place of God and his people and as a center of power for Satan and his minions. The city is one primary stage on which the drama of salvation is played out.

Learned yet approachable, Mouw explains how Christians can affirm God’s justice while holding hope for the wideness of his saving mercy. Congregations today face pressing questions about how to reconcile orthodoxy with empathy in increasingly pluralist neighborhoods and communities. For Reformed pastors, students, and interested laypeople, Divine Generosity serves as a biblically based, doctrinally sound guide.

Most Christians today believe that God's promise to establish the New Covenant (Jeremiah 31) has been fulfilled in the Gospel of Christ. It is a shock to learn that the Dispensational world denies this, and says the Jeremiad Covenant will not be established until the Second Coming of Christ, at the end of the Christian age! In this carefully reasoned and powerful new book, prolific author Don K. Preston (D. Div.) demonstrates the dangers of such a view, and with careful logic and exegesis shows that the Gospel is now, and will always be, the one covenant, the only covenant wherein salvation...

History's final chapter will be written in Jerusalem. When an Iranian president thunders a murderous threat or an obscure Turkish drunkard has a dream in Mecca or a Jewish couple from Brooklyn lands at Tel Aviv’s Ben Gurion airport, these events might seem disconnected. But they’re not. In Dateline Jerusalem, CBN News correspondent Chris Mitchell connects the dots and unveils Jerusalem as the epicenter and crossroads of the spiritual, political, and, yes, supernatural worlds. Jerusalem’s powerful draw has always transcended simple economics, military strategy, and religious affiliation.

First published in 1970, this book helped spur the modern rise of postmillennialism. Revelation's details are often perplexing, even baffling, and yet its main meaning is clear: It is a book about victory. It tells us that our faith can only result in victory. "This is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith" (1 John 5:4). This is why knowing Revelation is so important. It assures us of our victory and celebrates it. Genesis 3 tells us of the fall of man into sin and death. Revelation gives us man's victory in Christ over sin and death.

Through more than 40 years of ministry, Pastor Larry Huch has seen a trend: Christians are living well below the promises and covenants of God. He says they are missing out in part because they don’t fully understand where we are on God’s biblical timeline. In this timely book, Huch, a respected teacher on the Hebrew roots of the Christian faith, reveals seven Bible prophecies unfolding right now that will release God’s end-time outpouring of supernatural blessings and miracles into the world and into our lives.

The salvation of the soul is probably one of the most misunderstood concepts in the church today. Most people think that the salvation of the spirit and the salvation of the soul are the same thing, even though the Scriptures tell us something different. The salvation of a person’s spirit is very simple. Acts 16:30-31 tells us: "30) 'Sirs, what must I do to be saved?' 31) So they said, 'Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.'" The salvation of the spirit is based on the finished work of our savior Jesus Christ at Calvary.

What’s going on in our world? Why are suicide bombers attacking our cities? Why are shooters invading our workplaces and malls? Why are students attacking speakers at their colleges? Why are there two versions of the truth on the Internet and in the media? Michael Youssef, popular teacher and Middle Eastern expert, explains in detail what’s troubling today’s world. Aggressive secularism is stripping our nation of the vestiges of truth, as many Christians are browbeaten into silence.
