When the Man Comes Around: A Commentary on the Book of Revelation available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. "Though St. John the Evangelist saw many strange monsters in his vision, he saw no creature so wild as one of his own commentators." ~ G.K. Chesterton The book of Revelation was written to do just that: reveal. But most commentaries nowadays either engage in bizarre speculations about the future, or they keep an embarrassed distance from all the apocalyptic events that the apostle John says will “shortly take place.” In this commentary, Douglas Wilson provides a passage-by-passage walkthrough of the entire book, showing how John’s most notorious prophecies concern the Fall of Jerusalem in A.D. 70. Explaining symbols and characters as he goes, Wilson shows from the text that not only is this book not an elaborate code, but that Revelation is not even ultimately concerned with the end of the world as we know it. Revelation is about the triumph of the Church, which always happens when the Man comes around.

Though most Christians refrain from predicting exactly when our world will end, many believe that when earth's finale does arrive, it will be a catastrophe. They expect that before Christ comes back to reclaim His own, Satan will escape his chains and return to wreak havoc on our planet. Details vary, but the general assumption is the same: things will get much, much worse before they get better. But is this really what the Bible teaches? Leaving aside the theological terms that often confuse and muddle this question, Douglas Wilson instead explains eschatology as the end of the greatest story in the world - the story of humanity. He turns our attention back to the stories and prophecies of Scripture and argues for "hopeful optimism": the belief that God will be true to His promises, that His will shall be done on earth as it is in heaven, and that the peace and good will we sing about at Christmas will one day be a reality here on earth.

Download and read online ebook The Great Unveiling write by Michael Kelley. This book was released on 2019-12-13. The Great Unveiling available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. The Book of Revelation is one of the most misunderstood and neglected books in the Bible, partly because of its Apocalyptic genre which is a literary form that is not used anymore. Yet, it is also misunderstood because most Christians are unfamiliar with the historical-cultural context of first-century Christianity and Judaism in the Roman Empire. The Revelation is far more relevant for Christian's daily lives as the church advances the gospel throughout the world than most people realize, specifically written to believers "to unveil" the reign of their Lord over the earth and the binding of Satan, the Spirit and the Bride (through the proclamation of the gospel) opening the eyes of the nations that he had blinded over the course of centuries. This commentary seeks to quote and cite as much of the history as possible to bring out the book's first-century meaning and present applications.
