THE CHRONOLOGICAL BOOK OF END TIMES Some will most likely open the first page of this book and say, "Oh no, another book about the end of the world." I can almost imagine the smile on their face as they roll their eyes in unbelief that someone would dare write about the end of the age and destruction of humanity. Especially when it seems we could be on the brink of a global war. The end is going to happen. God’s Word declares it. Key events must occur leading up to that moment we call “The Day of the Lord.” God’s Word also declares this to be true. It is a fact that “What We Don't...

In Agents of the Apocalypse, noted prophecy expert Dr. David Jeremiah does what no prophecy expert has done before.

Rooted in the past, but right for today, the NRSV continues the tradition of William Tyndale, the King James Version, the American Standard Version, and the Revised Standard Version. Equally important, it sets a new standard for the 21st century. The NRSV stands out among the many translations because it is "as literal as possible" in adhering to the ancient texts and only "as free as necessary" to make the meaning clear in graceful, understandable English.
