The Seventh Trumpet Has Sounded
Author: Jim Burruss
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781636252858
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
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."

The Rapture Exposed
Author: Barbara R. Rossing
Publisher: Basic Books
ISBN: 0465004962
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
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.

Understanding End Times Prophecy
Author: Paul Benware
Publisher: Moody Publishers
ISBN: 1575674831
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
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.

When You Hear the Trumpet Sound
Author: Dave Bates
Publisher: Xulon Press
ISBN: 9781498459341
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
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."

Category : Religion

Pages : 193
Book Description
Before Armageddon, before the Second Coming, there will be the Rapture. As the world’s attention turns to a battle beginning in Israel, prophecies foretell that living men and women will suddenly vanish, as the Bible says, “into the clouds to meet the Lord in the air.” What is the impact of this extraordinary promise upon Christians in America, Jews in Israel, and people everywhere? Why has anti-Semitism plagued the Jewish people throughout history, and why is it such a critical issue for Christians today?
