To The Day Of Eternity

This book has its origin in the firm conviction that a grasp of God's prophetic programme is not an esoteric indulgence for the eccentric, but an essential element of every believer's understanding of the Bible and an indispensable part of living a scriptural Christian life. In the prophecies of Scripture, God treats us not as servants, but as friends, allowing us to see and understand something of His plans for the universe—and for His own. This book assists the student of Bible prophecy by providing a clear and concise outline of future events. It addresses the question of how prophetic Scripture ought to be interpreted and describes the distinctive hopes of Israel and the Church. It also stresses the practical value of prophecy in everyday life, highlighting its importance as a safeguard against doctrinal error and a stimulus to godly Christian living. Throughout the book, we are reminded that ‘the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy’, as Christ is seen to be the central subject of prophecy and the source and sum of the believer's hope.
