Book Description
Earthquakes, floods, forest fires, famine, pestilence, disease, volcanos, tsunamis, terrorism, violence, economic uncertainty, racial and ethnic turmoil, war - What does it all mean? What is the earth coming to? People are afraid and wondering what the future might hold. It seems there is no security anymore. Upon finishing this book, the reader will have the inside story regarding what the future really holds for mankind. Some of life's most pressing questions will be answered such as: "What happens when you die?" "Will the inhabitants of this earth annihilate themselves?" "Will the earth end with a bang or a whimper?" "Is there any hope for a brighter future?" This book is written from a unique perspective - the perspective of a layman who has been fascinated with Biblical prophecy for years. All the points made are amply supported from Scripture alone. His desire is to share a different viewpoint which will awaken readers to study and think for themselves. In years gone by many people put their hope and confidence in God, but it seems now in the public square no one even thinks or cares about God. But, awake! God is still in control and He knows the end from the beginning! He created this earth, and He has not just left it to run on its own. He is intimately concerned about everything that happens, and He has grand plans for it. Read this book and find out what they are! The book recounts the great themes of the Bible - themes of faith, the nature of God and the Trinity, Christ in the Old Testament, Christ's atoning sacrifice on the cross and His resurrection bringing the promise of salvation to all mankind. Difficult subjects are addressed such as what happens when a person dies and the Antichrist, as well as the signs of the end of the world, the final judgments of God on unrepentant humanity as vividly portrayed in Revelation, and the last great battle when Jesus Christ is victorious over the Devil. See how the prophecies of Daniel, Ezekiel, Joel and Zechariah in the Old Testament dovetail perfectly with what Christ foretold and what John was shown in Revelation. The prophecies of the end of the age are more exciting than any thriller developed for TV or movies! Extremely difficult times are coming! This book will teach the reader how to survive the times of tribulation. Learn how a loving God will bring destruction upon the inhabitants of the earth. He has been pleading for millennia for His creatures to commit themselves to Him but they would not. Evil has increased to the point where God, in His mercy must also display His justice and vengeance and bring an end to it all. It is a "strange act" for this God of love, but He has no choice. The inhabitants of earth have not only been destroying themselves, but they have destroyed the earth. God must intervene according to His appointed time which is coming soon! He can no longer bear to see His creation suffering. The destruction on earth is not the end of the story. The world will not just be destroyed and forgotten. There is wonderful hope and good news! Evil will not have the last word! God will have it! King Jesus, the Messiah, is coming back to this earth again, not as a tiny, helpless baby, but as a warrior King. He will rule and His believers will reign with Him for eternity. There will be new heavens and a new earth more glorious than anyone could ever imagine. There will be no more death, sorrow, pain or crying. Are you prepared for His coming?

Charting the Supernatural Judgements of Planet Earth
Author: Jerimiah Asher
Publisher: Author House
ISBN: 1452046786
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 422
Book Description
Chapter 3 The First Judgment: The World Prior To Adam There may have been many judgments upon the earth since its beginning millions or billions of years ago; however, the present commentary will deal only with the last tens of thousands of years of earth’s existence. In Genesis 1:2, the verses written by Moses (as author of the Genesis account) portray an earth that was veiled in darkness so that its form could not be discerned. The earth at that time was covered with water (ice) high above the mountain tops so that it gave the appearance of being a dark revolving sphere of frozen water (Table-2). God’s spirit is described as hovering over this revolving ball of water and brooding over the sad condition of this dark, void planet. God did not create a dark and dismal planet at the beginning, because God does not create darkness; in fact, darkness is incompatible with His existence and presence. So what had happened that God viewed (Gen. 1:2) such a decrepit state of the world? Does scripture attempt to explain this phenomenon, or does the inspired word of God remain silent on this issue? It was first proposed as a theory by the Scotsman Thomas Chalmers in the early 19th century that a “gap” in time existed between Genesis 1:1 and Genesis 1:2. This gap-in-time would encompass a “ruin-reconstruction theme” and the existence of pre-Adamic living beings. Obviously, a huge catastrophic event would have had to occur to produce this decadent state of the world. The “gap concept” was later popularized by mention in the margin notes of the Scofield Reference Bible.

Category : Science

Pages : 220
Book Description
Are there credible reasons to believe many of the constellation and star names were given by inspiration of God? God's Signature in the Stars explores these ancient star names and their meanings to reveal the answer. The Bible states that God named the stars: "He who brings out the starry host one by one and calls forth each of them by name" (Isa 40:26). These starry hosts appear in the night sky as God's "character actors," performing their roles on his celestial stage. God is the creator, writer, and director of this heavenly drama and cosmic dance. "By day and by night," his "starry hosts" are flickering above the footlights in God's theater in the sky!

40 Questions About the End Times
Author: Eckhard J. Schnabel
Publisher: Kregel Publications
ISBN: 0825489105
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
This contribution to the 40 Questions series continues the tradition of excellent research presented in accessible language and clear writing. Designed for both students and general readers, this resource helps them make sense of one of the Bible's most difficult topics. Eckhard Schnabel, a professor at a leading seminary and the author of several major works, looks at the future of the world, the church, and Israel; the return of Jesus; and the millennium and the final judgment. He answers questions related to the rapture, the 144,000, the identity of the two witnesses, Armageddon, how to interpret Revelation, heaven and hell, and so forth. The result is an even-handed treatment that avoids sensationalism and a "newspaper headline" approach to prophecy, that is, interpreting prophecy according to current events. Rather, Schnabel carefully studies the biblical text in light of its first-century context and draws biblically-based conclusions.
