Three Views on the Rapture
Author: Craig A. Blaising
Publisher: Zondervan Academic
ISBN: 0310528828
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
The rapture--or the belief that Jesus' living followers will, at some point, join him forever while others do not--is an important but contested doctrine among evangelicals. Scholars generally hold one of three perspectives on the timing and circumstances of the rapture, all of which are presented in this important volume of the Counterpoints series, Three Views on the Rapture: Alan D. Hultberg (PhD, Trinity International University and professor of New Testament at Talbot School of Theology) explains the Pre-Wrath view. Craig Blaising (PhD, Dallas Theological Seminary and president of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary) defends the Pre-Tribulation view. Douglas Moo (PhD, University of St. Andrews and professor of New Testament at Wheaton College) sets forth the Post-Tribulation view. Each author provides a substantive explanation of his position, which is critiqued by the other two authors. A thorough introduction gives a historical overview of the doctrine of the rapture and its effects on the church. The interactive and fair-minded format of the Counterpoints series allows readers to consider the strengths and weaknesses of each view and draw informed, personal conclusions.

RELIGION/SPIRITUALITY The Lord Jesus said there will be signs at the End Time.

The book, Jesus Rapture Is Coming Soon lists many of the moral, political, scientific, and environmental events taking shape today that clearly validates the very signs Jesus prophesied. Those who have eyes that see and ears that hear have the spiritual awareness to prepare for this apocalypse as foretold in the Book of Revelation.

To break it down even further, one second of the Lords time is equal to 4.22 days of the human clock. Our life here on earth is like a blade of grass. We can be stepped upon by a multitude of death-like situations. Being prepared to meet thy maker is second to nothing in the world. Knowing some of the signs of the End Time and becoming close to the Lord Jesus brings His peace, joy and assurance in ones life here and the hereafter. In conclusion, no one knows the day or hour of his or her own life on earth. Would it not be wise to mentally and spiritually prepare your heart, mind, soul and spirit for the possible now --- as well as for the End Time.

Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
Where is Jesus when we need him most? An influential pastor shares how despair can lead us to discover true hope and a deeper relationship with God, helping us emerge stronger and more joyful from times of crisis. “May this careful look at pain in the context of Jesus’s life open up avenues of discovery and healing.”—Mindy Caliguire, cofounder and president of Soul Care We all experience difficulties and hardships. But how can we learn to live richly in the midst of them? And even grow spiritually because of them? The answer is found in the hopeful humanity of Jesus. As the Son of God, Jesus wasn’t exempt from suffering, disappointment, or injustice. He lived in the real world as a real person. He wept for those he loved. He felt hunger and thirst. He endured temptation, betrayal, and ridicule. He died after being unjustly tortured. And somehow through it all, he embodied hope—by defeating death and opening a new world of life for us. In Echoing Hope, influential pastor and blogger Kurt Willems reveals how understanding the humanity of Jesus can radically transform our identity and empower us to step into our pain-filled world in a new way. Combining rich theological insight with personal stories and practices for response, he shows how we can overcome despair and encounter the beautiful potential of our lives.

The Rapture Versus the Second Coming of Jesus

Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
This book is about the Rapture of the Church versus the Second Coming of Jesus Christ to earth. Many are afraid to read the Book of Revelation in the Bible but this is written to clarify Revelation in very clear terminology. This study uses Old Testament Prophecy and parallels it with the very Words Jesus spoke in the New Testament. There is confusion of whether the Rapture will be Pre-Tribulation, Mid-Tribulation or Post-Tribulation; all three theories are considered in this book. This study is for the student and/or the teacher and can be used in a class setting.Israel Redeemed is a large part of this study. Israel is God's Very Elect and God has not given up on them. God's plan for Redeeming His Chosen People is really a beautiful Love Story. Israel will accept Jesus as their Messiah at the Second Coming of Christ.The author of this book has studied Eschatology and God's Word since his Salvation at the Age of 21. He had a lifechanging experience when he gave his heart to Jesus. His approach is so clear to comprehend that after reading this book, one can actually understand the subject of End Time Prophecy. His heart's desire is for this book to be a blessing and to give God all the Glory, Honor and Praise for the revelation of God's Word by the Holy Spirit. These Scriptures actually prove the perfection of God's Word.Many people have confused the Rapture with the Second Coming of Jesus. You will find an in depth study in this book that is completely backed up with the Word of God, complete with many New King James Version Scripture verses printed. You will also be moved to consider where you stand with God and His Son Jesus Christ!

The Rapture and the Second Coming of Christ

Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Some Christians do not understand the difference between the Rapture of the Church and the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. The Bible teaches that Jesus Christ will descend from heaven with a blast of a trumpet. All Christians on earth will be caught up into the clouds to meet Jesus and to be with Him throughout eternity. The Bible teaches that a 7-year period of time will occur where God will pour out His wrath on the unbelievers who have rejected the sacrifice of His Son Jesus Christ. This period of time is called the Tribulation. We believe that the Tribulation will occur immediately after the Rapture. We believe that the Second Coming of Christ will occur at the end of the Tribulation. When Jesus returns to earth, all Christians will return with Him. At that time a 1,000-year period of time called the Millennium will commence. During the Millennium, the earth will be in perfect peace. In this book we give a simple and easy-to-understand explanation of the Rapture, the Tribulation, the Second Coming of Christ and the Millennium.
