Did you know that the global church is only a few years away from fulfilling Jesus' command to "make disciples of every nation?" And that Jesus explicitly tied his return to the completion of that task?In And Then the End Will Come, Douglas Cobb, founder of the Finishing Fund, provides a front-line account of the effort to finish Jesus' Great Commission in our lifetimes. He also explores nine other clues that Jesus is coming soon, including?the approaching 2000-year anniversary of the resurrection?the regathering of Israel?and the prophecies of Daniel Chapter 12.He makes the case that the return of Christ is at hand-perhaps in the next year or two, perhaps a little later, but assuredly very soon. And he offers practical instruction about what it means to "live holy and godly lives" as we look for the coming of our Lord and King.If you're discouraged about the craziness you see in the world today, And Then the End Will Come will offer you hope for better things soon to come-things so great that the Bible says no one can imagine how awesome they will be.

When the Bible says things like, "there is coming a time of troubles like never has been before and never will be again" (Matthew 24:21), or "A time when men's hearts will fail them because of what they see coming on the earth" (Luke 21:26), or "a time that if someone was to tell you about it you would not believe it" (Habakkuk 1:5), these are not just some things written in some old religious book. These were men of God who knew what they were talking about. We need to know that when our world starts to crumble around us, God is in charge and all will be okay soon. Will the world end on December 21, 2012 as some are saying? This author thinks not. This book was written to promote Bible study. It covers prophecy and history and seeks to lead the reader into a stronger faith and knowledge of the Bible.

Most people, at one time or another, have wondered about the End Times. When is this thing going to go down? What kind of crazy stuff can we expect before Christ returns? Do we need to rent some angel wings or know how to play the harp? But what if we have been asking the wrong questions all along? And, what if there was a question that could cut through all of the opinion and clutter and divisiveness of the End Times? In AND THEN THE END WILL COME! author and teacher Brandon Andress goes directly to the words of Jesus to pose an entirely different question Who are we becoming right now and who will we be if and when the world begins to come apart at the hinges? Combining his funny, charming, and heartfelt message with a knack for simplicity, you will ride a wave of emotions as Andress lays out the five things every follower (and potential follower) needs to know today about the End Times in order to make sense of an increasingly upside-down world. AND THEN THE END WILL COME! is for anyone who wants to reconnect to the larger story and narrative in which we live and breathe and who wants to rediscover the purpose for which we live today. This is the wake-up call every single person needs to hear!

How does one explain the New Testament texts that seem to announce the imminent arrival of the long-awaited Day of the Lord? In this study, Dale Allison presents a comprehensive analysis of the first-century beliefs about the period of suffering and tribulation which was to precede the general resurrection of the dead. Although such beliefs were not uncommon, they have received little attention from New Testament scholars. Dr. Allison argues that they provided the conceptual tools that allowed New Testament writers to make sense of the death and resurrection of Jesus, without abandoning altogether Jesus' own messianic expectations and belief in some imminent radical change. Dr. Allison shows that the realized eschatology of the Gospels is not, as is so often thought, the product of Jesus' own teaching and preaching. Rather, it stems from the reflection of the earliest Christian communities on the death of Jesus, in the light of his belief in a imminent End. Dr. Allison offers a stimulating and detailed account of the teaching of Jesus and of the New Testament records of the passion and resurrection of Jesus. He concludes his study with an important discussion of the way this process of reflection has continued throughout Christian history and indeed how it continues to influence Christian thinking today.

What Do the Five Points of Calvinism Really Mean? Many have heard of Reformed theology, but may not be certain what it is. Some references to it have been positive, some negative. It appears to be important, and they'd like to know more about it. But they want a full, understandable explanation, not a simplistic one. What Is Reformed Theology? is an accessible introduction to beliefs that have been immensely influential in the evangelical church. In this insightful book, R. C. Sproul walks readers through the foundations of the Reformed doctrine and explains how the Reformed belief is centered on God, based on God's Word, and committed to faith in Jesus Christ. Sproul explains the five points of Reformed theology and makes plain the reality of God's amazing grace.

The Christian, according to the apostle Paul, lives between two times. The end is already present with Christ's death and resurrection, but the end is yet to come with his second appearing. Following the seminal work of Oscar Cullmann, Marvin Pate argues that this "already/not yet" eschatological tension lies at the heart of all writings of the apostle Paul and is, in fact, the key to understanding them. Pate traces the concept of "already/not yet" back to its Jewish roots and shows with exceptional clarity how Paul's teachings on God, Christ, human beings, salvation, the Holy Spirit, the church society, and the last things can be successfully placed within this "already/not yet" framework. In his analysis, Pate exegetes numerous key passages in the Pauline letters.
