One of the countless reasons why the Bible is the most amazing and exciting book on earth is its prophecies. The Bible unfolds the future in great detail, and The Future According to the Bible deals in depth with every major prophetic event, including the Rapture, the Judgment Seat of Christ, the Tribulation, the Antichrist, Gog and Magog, the Battle of Armageddon, the Two Witnesses, Christ’s Return, Muslim nations in prophecy, the Judgment of the Nations, the resurrection body (very extensive study), the conversion of Israel, the highway of the redeemed, Christ’s glorious kingdom, the Millennial Temple, the Millennial throne, the Great White Throne judgment, and the New Jerusalem. The first two chapters deal at length with the prophecies that are being fulfilled today, including the apostasy and end-time skepticism. Knowledge of these prophecies is essential for a proper understanding of the times and a proper Christian worldview. The 130-page section on Christ’s kingdom describes the coming world kingdom in more detail than any book we are familiar with. Every major Messianic prophecy is examined. Prophecy is a powerful witness to the Bible’s divine inspiration, and it is a great motivator for holy Christian living. In this book we show that the Lord’s churches are outposts of the coming kingdom. The believer’s position in Christ’s earthly kingdom will be determined by his service in this present world (Revelation 2:26-27; 3:21). The book is based on nearly fifty years of intense Bible study plus firsthand research in Israel, Turkey, Egypt, Jordan, and Europe. 438 pages
