Résumé : |
The Bible—one of the most contemplated and discussed books ever written. But even after thousands of years of civilization and technology, we still struggle to make sense of the Bible’s richly enigmatic prophecies. Perhaps what we are searching for is not found in theories, interpretations, or translations, but in a fresh perspective toward the writings of the Holy Book.
End-Time Prophecies of the Bible collects all of the biblical passages concerning the end times. Arranged topically by their apparent chronology, the prophecies are presented in historical context, inspiring a renewed appreciation for the human and spiritual dramas that make up the Scriptures—and reinforcing the notion that the grand purpose of prophecy is not to provide a map for the future but to enable willing listeners to recognize the workings of God in times of danger and uncertainty. |
