As Christians witness the rapid degradation of the world's moral fiber, they wonder if things will ever get better.

The Church is about to witness an unprecedented end-time harvest. A season of freedom, favor, and release from oppressive darkness is coming! Discover Revelation, The Good News.
--Bo PolnySeventh-day Adventists need more than a superficial knowledge of the contents of The Great Controversy. The eternal destinies of all depend on their relation to the issues of that conflict, which reaches its climax in the last generation of people. The crisis that is before the remnant church is briefly portrayed in Revelation 13 and 14. To His people who must personally face that crisis, God has through the gift of prophecy sent detailed instruction of what is coming and how to prepare for it. That instruction is found, most completely, in this book. A BIG PRINT SIZE (A4) Full Color Study Guide Edition.
What in the world are we to make of the dizzying array of grand and grotesque images 'revealed' to an early Christ-follower named John? Enter the expert scholar-teacher Greg Carey as the perfect docent through Revelation's stunning gallery. Carey orients us to a 'faithful and true' focus on the 'faithful and true' Christ--a vital corrective to fanciful and false readings of Revelation that remain wildly popular.--F. Scott Spencer, author of Salty Wives, Spirited Mothers, and Savvy Widows
What should modern readers make of the wildly fantastical Revelation to John? New Testament scholar Greg Carey offers an accessible guide to the daunting Book of Revelation, inviting us not to decode every symbol or tame every dragon, but rather to engage the urgent questions of power and loyalty.
TIME. RUNS. OUT.
Tribulation. A cause of great trouble and suffering. The last years of human history will be defined by that very word. However, it isn't just pain and torment of flesh and bone. The souls of the Earth will be put to the final test. Faith, determination, and resolve of the living is the battleground as spiritual warfare begins. Who has the faith of a mustard seed? Who has the determination to face their own generational demons? Who has the resolve to stand firm against the world?

A Story of Hope and Victory was born out of my complete love of and my fascination for the Book of Revelation. Many books have been written on the Apocalypse. Usually, the word Apocalypse brings a sense of dread and uncertainty. People see it as the complete and final destruction of the world. Apocalypse simply means a pulling back or an unveiling of what is to come. This book was written in simple terminology for those who love God and those who will come to love Him and realize His love for mankind. These future events should be relished and looked forward to with eagerness.
In The View from Above, Jan DeGelder ably unfolds the meaning of Revelation's cosmic drama. Like the book of Revelation itself, this volume inspires hope and confidence. DeGelder is refreshingly honest about not having all the answers to this fascinating, noisy book (as he likes to call it), and yet he demonstrates throughout just how clearly and directly Revelation speaks to the church of Christ today. In our post-Christian and secularized world, DeGelder's persistent focus on the reality that Christ has conquered, reigns on high, and is coming in victory provides deep comfort and hope.
We are living in tumultuous times. From corrupt world politics to global pandemics to an unprecedented rebellion against God and His Word, humanity has reached a critical stage. What happens next?
In this eye-opening book, Jimmy Evans examines biblical prophecies about the end times and points to their unmistakable parallels with today's world. With clear, insightful analysis of Scripture, he answers many common questions, such as:
Ultimately, Tipping Point will help you understand current events with confidence. There is no going back, but hope and peace are possible as God's plan unfolds and we approach the end of the age.
A Theology of Revelation by J. Scott Duvall in Zondervan's Biblical Theology of the New Testament series provides a comprehensive look at the theology of John's Apocalypse. One of only a few dedicated theologies of Revelation, Duvall's book leaves no stone unturned in the study of the final book of the Christian canon of Scripture. This thoroughly researched study includes:
Readers will find here a study that is clearly written, attentive to the historical-literary context, with special attention given to the primary theological themes in the book. Perhaps above all, readers will have their hope in God and his amazing plan reinforced and strengthened.
In Unspoiled Endings, Christopher T. Holmes seeks to address two general but ultimately inadequate approaches to the book of Revelation. On the one hand, some obsess about decoding its symbolic language and providing a proper timetable for understanding the end times. On the other hand, many simply disregard or neglect Revelation altogether because of its strange or unsettling contents. Unspoiled Endings offers a historical, literary, and theological reading that offers an alternative to both tendencies and explains how and why Revelation relates to the life of faith. It serves as a corrective to those whose understanding of Revelation has been shaped more by the Left Behind series than by the book itself, and as an invitation to those who otherwise would never think to read or study the book. Each chapter presents a feature or characteristic of Revelation that contemporary readers can reclaim to make Revelation a more relevant and invigorating resource for contemporary Christians.
This book addresses the rudiments of the book of Revelation, and progresses forward to understanding the concluding of Gentile times. The book of Revelation reveals God's love, justice, mercy, and Christ's love and the power of restoration of creation and creature. This book's ongoing message is that knowledge and the embrace of God's plan and intent toward mankind. The flavor of the book is humility, fear of God, and ourselves standing in awe.
This book, The Revelation Rainbow, is the end of a forty-year quest by the author to find answers to the questions generated by his Biblically un-informed scholarship that shrouds rather than unveils the great truths of this Holy Spirit directed work of our Lord. Hundreds of students of Revelation have been left in a bewildered state because certain scholars approach the book with a human mindset, instead of a Spirit-led mindset. Instead of looking at Revelation as The Divine Apocalypse, they try to humanize and literalize the book as a study of human secular history, leaving the student with a complicated scheme of things that do not make sense.
Having met these students, Christian Kingdom Broadcasting founder Mr. Charles Doughty was greatly distressed to see them turn from God's Word (especially Revelation) altogether. Subjects like the Antichrist, Millennium, Mark of the Beast, Rapture, Tribulation and Left Behind are just some of the end-time twists causing confusion.
