A Study Guide of the Biblical Last Days: A Victorious Eschatology - Paperback Book

Much of the information in this study guide is the result of a lifelong pursuit of truth. As a young man, I was scared by the teachings concerning the last days. I believe that many people have been traumatized by well-meaning teachers who promote a dispensational futuristic theology that is full of fear. After numerous failed prophecies and predicted dates that have come and gone, perhaps it is time to consider a different perspective on end-time or last-days theology.

Consider the possibility that the "last days" are not referring to a cosmic collapse or the destruction of the planet. In this study guide, we will explore the possibility that the biblical last days were the last days of the Old Covenant. Many of the scriptures that were translated as "end of the world" are actually mistranslations. Later versions of the Bible have corrected these to "end of the age." One such instance is in Matthew chapter twenty-four when Jesus was asked, “When will these things be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the world?" The New King James Version translates this verse as, “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of your coming, and of the end of the age?" Hence, these verses are not talking about the end of the natural world, but the end of that age which culminated in the destruction of the temple in AD 70. That event signified a change of covenants: The old was being removed and a new day was dawning.Wouldn't it be incredibly good news if the last days are past days and not in your future?

What if you don't have to face a future seven years of hell on earth called the Great Tribulation and worry about a future mark of the Beast? What if you discovered that these events happened in the past, were written about to a first-century church, and are not in our future? If this interests you, then this study guide will be well worth your time as it explores these and other subjects in detail.
