Folks, I have a book for you. If you want to have the end times explained in a way that even a layman can understand you should read this. The author, Dr. Moody, was my pastor at Pleasantview Baptist Church, Arlington, TX until he accepted the presidency of Arlington Baptist College. I have the utmost respect for this man of God. If the book of Revelation and other prophecies are confusing to you, as they have been for me, you will find this book most educational and helpful! The following is from the book’s back cover: Things to Come gives you an overview of what the Bible teaches concerning “last days,” including events, personalities, geographical locations (both on earth and in heaven), as well as motivating physical and spiritual forces that will be prevalent during the final days of mankind's existence on earth.
The theological term for what we will be discussing is eschatology, which means “the study of last things or days.” However, by design, there are few theological terms in this writing, because the basic truths of eschatology should be understood by the average church member who wishes to have a working knowledge of things yet to happen.
Our study begins at the rapture, carries us through the Tribulation Period, the Battle of Armageddon, and ultimately to the Eternal State of the believer and the unbeliever. By the time you finish reading, you should have a good idea of what the Bible tells us about what is ahead concerning “the Blessed Hope.”
