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.

Let the Nations be Glad
Author: John Piper
Publisher: Inter-Varsity Press
ISBN: 1789740606
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 370
Book Description
'Mission is not the ultimate goal of the church. Worship is. Missions exist because worship doesn't. Worship is ultimate.' John Piper's contemporary classic draws on key biblical texts to demonstrate that worship is the ultimate goal of the church and that proper worship fuels missionary outreach. Piper offers a biblical defence of God's supremacy in all things, providing a sound theological foundation for missions. He examines whether Jesus is the only way to salvation and issues a passionate plea for God-centredness in the missionary enterprise, seeking to define the scope of the task and the means for reaching 'all nations'. Let the Nations Be Glad! is a trusted resource for missionaries, pastors, church leaders, youth workers, seminary students, and all who want to connect their labours to God's global purposes. This third edition has been revised and expanded throughout and includes new material on the 'prosperity gospel'.

The Rapture Versus the Second Coming of Jesus

Publisher:
ISBN: 9781710103458
Category :
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
Author: Jack Hartman
Publisher: Lamplight Ministries
ISBN: 9780915445592
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.
