Despite the popular theology of our day, Christians should
not expect to get out of experiencing the tribulation or the
end times. Nowhere in the Bible does the Lord promise us this, say
Michael Brown and Craig Keener, two leading, acclaimed Bible
scholars. In fact, they say, Jesus promises us tribulation
in this world.
Yet this is no reason to fear. In this fascinating, accessible, and
personal book, Brown and Keener walk you through what the Bible
really says about the rapture, the tribulation, and the end
times. What they find will leave you full of hope. God's wrath is
not poured out on His people, and He will shield us from it--as he
shielded Israel in Egypt during the ten plagues. So instead of
taking comfort in what God hasn't promised, take comfort in the
words of Jesus: He has overcome the world, and we live in his
victory.
What if everybody was left
behind?
Despite the popular belief that Christians will be
raptured before the start of the Tribulation, Scripture paints a
very different picture. Nowhere does the Bible promise that
believers will escape the revelation of the Antichrist and his war
on the saints. In fact, God tells His people to expect
tribulation--and to persevere through it.
In this eye-opening text, acclaimed scholars and authors Michael
Brown and Craig Keener offer encouragement and hope for the
approaching dark times. Together they walk you through an intensive
study of Bible passages, helping you gain a better understanding of
what the future holds. Through it all, there is no need to fear;
God has a plan. He will not abandon His people in the terrible days
ahead.
Take comfort in the words of Jesus: He has overcome the world. Even
in the midst of great sorrows on the earth, we live in Jesus'
victory until He returns at the end of the age.
"Filled with hard-hitting, thought-provoking
information on what the Bible says about the end times, this book
will challenge and encourage you to understand what the future
holds for believers."--MIKE BICKLE, founder, International
House of Prayer
