Looking around at the world today it is obvious to most, if not all, Christians that none of the myths or legends or interpretations or theories or commentaries or imaginations or teachings or fictions about the End Time prophecies of Yeshua's/Jesus's Return are happening. But the real question is: are any of the words themselves written down in the prophecies being fulfilled today? In order to provide a balance to the conversation about End Time prophecy happening in the global Christian body today, this book only examines if the words actually written in the prophecies in Scripture are being fulfilled or not, without using any interpretations or myths or imaginations or commentaries or teachings that have been created around the prophecies over the last 1,900 years. Do not let anyone tell you that the prophecies in Scripture are easy and quick to understand, because the size of this book is the bare minimum it took to be able to only examine the most essential and foundational End Time prophecies. There is much that had to be left out and it would require writing volumes of books of thousands of pages to make a thorough and complete examination of all of the End Time and Messianic prophecies scattered throughout Scripture in relation to the events happening today. The wonderful thing is that Yahuweh/Yehovah already understands all of his prophecies perfectly, and we do not have to try to understand them on our own strength; we can trust him to reveal understanding to us whenever it is his timing for us to understand, if we humble ourselves to his will. Everyone is looking for a leader to tell them what to think and what to do, but when it comes to Yahuweh/Yehovah few listen to him and what he says to do, because he requires that we have to think for ourselves and interact with him in a relationship in order to be able to obey him and his words (both spoken and written). It is no different in understanding prophecy where we have to have a real relationship with him, knowing him and who he is in order to understand the words he has spoken and written.

La carta a los Efesios es uno de los documentos teológicamente másprofundos y desafiantes del Nuevo Testamento, cuyo contenido tieneuna vigencia extraordinaria para todas las épocas, particularmente,por su presentación de la iglesia como una realidad alternativa, unanueva sociedad o humanidad en Cristo. La propuesta paulina, laiglesia como una realidad alternativa, plantea dos temas teológicosconectados entre sí y que están íntimamente relacionados con eltestimonio cristiano en el mundo: 1) El Evangelio como una verdadpública, cuyo contenido y alcance, no se limita a la frontera religiosade la vida ni se encapsula en la iglesia; 2) La doble ciudadanía de loscreyentes, esto es, ciudadanos del reino de Dios y ciudadanos de lacomunidad política en la que habitan.El Dr. López Rodríguez nos ofrece una lectura fresca de estaimportante carta, de la que ha producido una reflexión teológicaproducto de su interacción pastoral fuera y dentro de la iglesia. Susobservaciones y conclusiones son muy pertinentes a estas primerasdécadas del siglo XXI.

The classic essays in this volume address the usefulness of Orlando Patterson's work on slavery to New Testament studies. Contributors approach the question of slavery from two directions. Part One examines the evidence for slavery in antiquity and attitudes toward it. Part Two considers specific receptions of Paul and slavery by persons of African descent in North America. Contributions to this essential collection pushed scholars toward a more complex, critical view of the Greek and Roman slave systems, and their work continues to influence New Testament studies today.

King Hezekiah of Judah unfolds in unprecedented detail the incredible, eventful life of King Hezekiah, full of faith, grace, and miracles. It comprehensively illuminates the person, the king, the man Hezekiah in his personal defeats and his victories in faith with God. In addition, this book proves the credibility of the biblical accounts through extensive analysis and reflection, as well as brand-new, startling insights. The chronology of the kings of Israel, which has been disputed for centuries, is given a special framework. Here it is now shown that all the biblical dates of this period can be harmoniously fitted into the dating of extra-biblical sources and events that are considered certain.From the first page to the last, however, this book does not fail to find repeated applications and deductions for our Christian life today. After studying King Hezekiah of Judah, we may question and realign our walk with God. Every reader is warned: studying this book could have consequences for your life!

My purpose for writing a book of Genesis commentary for all readers is to help kids and grown-ups understand the stories in the Bible better. Genesis is a very important book that tells us about the beginning of the world and the first people. The commentary will explain the stories in Genesis in a way that is easy to understand, using simple words and examples that a ten-year-old can grasp.By writing this commentary, the author wants to show how the stories in Genesis can teach important lessons and help you think about big questions. You can learn about things like how the world was created, why there is good and evil, and how we all should treat one another. The commentary will help everyone see the true meaning behind the stories and how they can be relevant to our lives today.This commentary was written to encourage conversation and discussion among readers. It helps to create a space where kids and grown-ups can talk about the stories, ask questions, and share their own thoughts and ideas. By doing this, the author hope to make Genesis more engaging and enjoyable for everyone, fostering a deeper understanding of the Bible and its teachings.

This book offers a critical understanding of the interface between holiness and intercession. The author reflectively narrates some of the selected biblical personalities and how holy living was exemplified in their interceding for others. Critically, the book argues that holiness in its intrinsic nature is about intercession for others. From the Old Testament to the New Testament, holiness is all about intercession, as has been ably demonstrated in this book starting with Abraham, Moses, David, and Solomon and going all the way to Jesus Christ, who sits on the right hand of God interceding for us.

Michael A. Milton uncovers the treasures of one of the Bible's regularly overlooked books in this pastoral treatment of Leviticus. God's call changed everything for the Israelites. Amid the vast, severe wilderness landscape of the Sinai region, in sun-scorched sorrow and disappointment over a recent national sin - the creation and worship of an idol of smelted jewelry - life abruptly changes. With the first line of Leviticus, "And the Lord called," God interrupts time and space, regret and reason, futility and hope. He reveals the pattern of the gospel: the holiness of God, the problem of human sin, God's plan of salvation, His call to holiness through His gracious provision. He shows a way for sinful humans to live in the presence of a holy God. Leviticus for modern-day Christians This call doesn't just affect the ancient Israelites - Milton shows how Leviticus still speaks to Christ's followers today. This book of the law points consistently to Jesus, the fullness and fulfilment of every antitype. It reveals to us in stark terms the abhorrence of sin, and the barrier it creates between mankind and God. Beginning with a helpful overview of Leviticus, and after providing some beneficial information about its title, authorship, time and biblical context, Milton tackles the book in four sections: Called to Worship (chapters 1-7) Called to Ministry (chapters 8-10) Called to Purity (chapters 11-16) Called to Holiness (chapters 17-27) Throughout, we see how this call applies not only to the ancient Israelites, but also to us. Get into this fascinating book Approaching God will be excellent for personal bible study, or for a pastor or small group leader working through the book.
