Publisher's Synopsis
This book is the single volume of the combined books "The Nations in Prophecy", "Israel in Prophecy" and "The Church in Prophecy". It outlines the broad scope of human history and its relationship to prophecy, from creation to the eternal state, combining prophecies concerning the nations, Israel, and the Church. This approach is designed to give the reader a broad interpretation of the entire prophetic word, avoiding the confusion that often exists when mingling the three prophetic strains. Publication in this form is designed to provide the reader with an understandable statement of what the Bible teaches about the future.;The study of man as told in history and prophecy is the most exciting drama ever written. It reveals the omnipotent God unfolding his purpose for the nations in measured movements designed to demonstrate his own sovereignty, wisdom and power. Though in the original creation man was made in the image and likeness of God, the author argues that during the fall the image became marred. Nevertheless man was destined to become the channel of divine revelation. The history of the human race as recorded in Scripture was designed to demonstrate both the inadequacy of the creature and the sufficiency of the omnipotent Creator. Earth was to be the stage and man the actor. The author argues that in the 20th century, history seems to be working towards this destiny.;This book provides a study of prophecy relating to the church as a fitting capstone to the previous discussion of prophecy relating to the nations and to Israel. Other books by this author include "The Blessed Hope and the Tribulation", "The Holy Spirit", "The Millennial Kingdom" and "The Rapture Epistles".
