"e;The Book of Tribulations"e;: The Syrian Muslim Apocalyptic Tradition


Book Description

The Book of Tribulations is the earliest complete Muslim apocalyptic text to survive, and as such has considerable value as a primary text. It is unique in its importance for Islamic history: focusing upon the central Syrian city of Hims, it gives us a picture of the personalities of the city, the tribal conflicts within, the tensions between the proto-Muslim community and the majority Christian population, and above all details about the wars with the Byzantines. Additionally, Nu`aym gives us a range of both the Umayyad and the Abbasid official propaganda, which was couched in apocalyptic and messianic terms.

The Great Tribulation


Book Description

In the great tribulation, who shall be able to stand when the distress, the grievous times, and persecutions shall come? The Bible calls those times the great tribulations: “For then shall be great tribulation such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be” (Matthew 24:21). John saw mountains and islands moving out of their places and people running and crying unto the mountains and rocks to fall on them to hide them from the wrath of the Lamb. John saw so much coming into the world, so he asked God in Revelation 6:17, “Who shall be able to stand?” In Revelation 7:9, “John seen a multitude which no man could number, standing before the Lamb, clothed in white robes.” In verse 13, one of the elders asked John, “Who are these in white robes, and where did they come from?” John said unto the elder in verse 14, “Sir, thou know. He said unto me, These, are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.” To make our robes white in the blood of the Lamb, we have got to do as it is written in Isaiah 1:18: “Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; thou they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.” Those shall be the ones who shall be able to stand.




Understanding End Times Prophecy


Book Description

Many Christians think of end times prophecy as a gigantic, intimidating puzzle -- difficult to piece together and impossible to figure out. But every puzzle can be solved if you approach it the right way. Paul Benware compares prophecy to a picture puzzle. Putting the edge pieces together first builds the 'framework' that makes it easier to fit the other pieces in their place. According to Benware, the framework for eschatology is the biblical covenants. He begins his comprehensive survey by explaining the major covenants. Then he discusses several different interpretations of end times prophecy. Benware digs into the details of the Rapture, the Great Tribulation, the judgements and resurrections, and the millennial kingdom. But he also adds a unique, personal element to the study, answering questions as: -Why study bible prophecy? -What difference does it make if I'm premillenial or amillenial? If what the Bible says about the future puzzles you, Understanding End Times Prophecy will help you put together the pieces and see the big picture.
