Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope: Episode 1
Gary begins his new Friday series called “Bible Prophecy Under the Microscope.”
A Christian should never fear having his “system” scrutinized by the plain teaching of the Bible. The rallying cry of the Reformation was ecclesia reformata quia semper reformanda est, “the church reformed because it must always be reforming.” This should be every Christian’s rallying cry. Last Days Madness is an appeal to the church to take another look at the topic of eschatology, the study of last things. The topic has not been settled in spite of a great deal of misplaced dogmatism. If you decide to read on, be prepared to be challenged. Moreover, be prepared to gain a greater respect for the integrity of the Bible.
Last Days Madness is unique because it argues its case rather than just states it. Most popular prophecy writers simply declare their position with little analysis or interaction with competing systems, assuming that their position is the only viable interpretive model… These authors dismiss, without sustained analysis, any view that does not agree with their opinion.
In fact, for them no other views on prophecy even exist. Readers are left with the impression that the Church has always believed what these men claim is true. Last Days Madness takes a different approach. It acknowledges the existence of opposing views, lists their supporting evidences, considers their line of argumentation, and offers a counter opinion with detailed exegetical and historical testimony. Unlike most books on Bible prophecy, Last Days Madness is not “an ill-digested rehash of someone else’s views” but a careful and detailed analysis of Bible prophecy.
