Christ'S Prophetic Plans Richard Mayhue

Jacket Description/Back: Understand the WHY behind what you believe ... Whether you are seminary trained or an avid Bible teacher or student, the end times and understanding the different views of Christ's millennial reign can be confusing. Even if you have been taught which view you are "supposed" to believe, do you really know why? You don't have to settle for a muddled approach to eschatology. You can know for sure what Scripture says about prophetic issues!General editors and experienced Bible scholars John MacArthur and Richard Mayhue bring the Word carefully, succinctly, and clearly to bear on our understanding of Christ's prophetic plans. They provide a convincing biblical explanation for the interpretive approach to Scripture that results in a knowable futuristic view of Christ's millennial reign on earth. Perfect for pastors, Bible professors, teachers and students, this primer takes you on a biblical study of questions surrounding prophecy, Israel, the rapture, and the different millennial views. "Christ's Prophetic Plans" also helps provide the certain validity of God's promises to Israel, and the crucial differences between Israel (as a people and a nation) and the New Testament church.
