The Prophecy Puzzle: Fitting prophecy from the whole Bible into the book of Revelation Joseph Ebenhoe

The Prophecy Puzzle is an interesting and practical study of the whole book of Revelation. The subtitle is, "Fitting prophecy from the whole Bible into the book of Revelation" and that is what I tried to do. I go into great detail about how and when end-time events will occur. I have no desire to be controversial, but I do believe I have the responsibility to clearly state what I understand the Bible to teach, and unfortunately that will inevitably lead to controversy. One controversy is the rapture and I believe it will happen near the middle of the seven-year tribulation. Yes, that is controversial, but I hope you'll consider the reasons I present and then prayerfully make up your own mind. My goal is not to convince everyone that I am right, but for anyone who reads this book to walk away with a better understanding of God, His plan, His kingdom and salvation. Besides end-time events the book of Revelation is filled with very practical teachings. The gospel of Christ Jesus is presented in several different places, and there are instructions on how to live out the day-to-day Christian life. I believe you will find this book to be understandable, engaging and beneficial. It is different from other prophecy books in that I believe the style of Jewish writing called, "Parallelism" was largely used in the writing of the book of Revelation. Understanding this gives a much clearer understanding of the book of Revelation, especially in regards to the chronological order of end-time events. The book of Revelation is also a very practical book, dealing with basic Christian doctrine as well as the prophecies. I also discuss how these prophecies and Biblical teachings should affect our day-to-day lives. Whether you are new to Biblical prophecy or if you've been studying it for forty years, you will be challenged with new ideas and possibilities. You might agree or disagree, but you will be engaged in thought and hopefully prayer.
