From the bestselling authors of The Rise of Babylon and The ISIS Crisis, the essential guide for Christians about what Bible prophecy foretells concerning current events in the Middle East--especially the rise of ISIS and the resurgence of Russia--while providing a way to find peace and hope in the face of end times concerns.
ISIS, Russia, and Iran are daily atop headlines and are among chief sources of intensifying unease among Americans about how current world conflicts will unfold. Using the Old Testament texts of prophets Ezekiel and Daniel as foundational passages, Bible experts Charles Dyer and Mark Tobey explain the connection between Bible prophecy and real-time events such as the growing alliance between Russia and Iran; the unsettling of the region as ISIS ravages countries and redraws boundaries; and the pull of Turkey and Saudi Arabia into the fray by Russian encroachment, Iranian meddling, and the United States' inability to create and lead a coalition. Simultaneously, Dyer and Tobey provide practical encouragement and spiritual principles for finding comfort, strength, and perspective in an unsettling time while laying out a strategy for responding out of faith rather than fear in the face of end times concerns.
The Gospel of Matthew links together 41 men in a genealogical chain stretching from Abraham to Jesus, but he also mentions five women.
He did not include such notable women as Sarah. . . or Rebekah . . . or Leah. And the five women chosen seem, at first glance, to be an odd choice. So what is it about the five women Matthew chose that makes them so important to his genealogy? Who are these Five Golden Rings in the chain stretching from Abraham to Jesus?
Simply put, that is the focus of this book. Join me on a journey of discovery to explore the five
wives and mothers whom Matthew included in his genealogy of Jesus. As we explore each of the five, I believe you will come to understand the special place they play in Matthew's presentation of Jesus as the Messiah, the son of David, the son of Abraham (Matt. 1:1).
