A King of Fierce Countenance, the Truth about Islam and Bible Prophecy
Author: Ph. D. Glenn Goodwin
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781581695403
Category : Religion

Pages : 172
Book Description
What does the bible have to do with islam? The Prophet Daniel was told, ..".when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up. And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people" (Daniel 8:23-24 KJV). Is it possible that a radical terrorist leader, riding the wind of extreme religious fervor, would be this king of fierce countenance and stir up the storm of Armageddon? Will there ever be peace in the Middle East? Are there radical elements within the Islamic people who figure into Christian prophecies of end-time events? It is hard to conceive of an Israel-centered Battle of Armageddon without including radical Muslim forces in the scenario. But what does the Bible say, and are these days upon us? Is it possible that so great a religion, so moved with passion against Judaism and Christianity, so outspoken on the issue of peace in the Middle East, so dominant in the lands of the Bible, could have arisen without the prophecies of the Bible even taking note of it? This book answers those questions-biblically and historically. This is a book for Christians; it is not against Islam or any other religion. It certainly isn't intended as an attack on any ideology, nor is it designed to insult anyone's faith. Rather, it is a statement of Christian faith. It attempts to explain the Islamic religion as it relates to the Christian Bible. But it does proceed from the presupposition that the Bible is true, and that Christianity is the way to eternal life. It is not designed to be mere hateful ranting against Islam, so much as it is meekly relating what the Bible says. True Christianity has no room for hate, bigotry, or prejudice. But our Bible does have a message for Christians and tells us about the role of extremist followers of radical Islam in future events and how we should prepare for events to come. Dr. Glenn Goodwin is the pastor of the Gospel Assembly Church in Des Moines, Iowa. Formerly a trial attorney, he earned his Juris Doctorate degree with honors from Drake University in Des Moines and his Doctor of Philosophy Degree in Theology from the International Seminary in Plymouth, Florida. He is blessed with a wonderful family, including his wife, three married children, and five granddaughters.
