The End: What Jesus Really Said About the Last Things - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The Bible's teachings on the end times have long been a source of sometimes morbid fascination for Christians. And now, at the turn of another millennium, we are seeing renewed bouts of prediction fever. Amid the frenzy, how can we take end-times teachings seriously and understand them clearly?
Too often, A. J. Conyers says, refined systems - whether they be popular or scholarly - have become interpretive tails that wag the scriptural dog. "It is the dog we are interested in here, though we'll allow others to affix the appropriate millennial tail."
With an expert eye, but peppering his treatment with fresh stories and application, Conyers focuses especially on Mark 13, Jesus' Olivet discourse. Return, then, with Peter and Andrew and Jesus' other original disciples, to consider anew the Gospels' real teaching on the last things.
