Miscellaneous Prophecy Studies


Whose Prophetic Interpretation Should You Believe?
Interpreters are at odds with each other, and it is easy to become confused. Here is a short, useful overview of the four major schools of prophetic interpretation. Their scriptural strengths and weaknesses are discussed, with a guide to which interpretations actually follow the Scriptures.

The Visitation of the Magi and The Great Tribulation
Brace yourself for a very unusual exercise in exegesis. One of the best known Christmas stories holds unexpected importance for the study of prophecy. These ancient wise men studied the book of Daniel. If we follow their steps, they will lead us to Christ.

The Date of the Second Coming
Another unusual exercise in exegesis. The Bible supports the idea of a "cosmic week" of the earth's history. We use this concept to derive the definitive date of the second coming.

Good News for the Time of Trouble
Many are afraid of the Great Tribulation. Dr. Norman Gulley walks through the Scriptures, showing why we should not be afraid. Not to be missed.

The Moral Purpose of Prophecy
This is a classic, written in 1949 by Louis F. Were. It addresses the issue of "Who are the Jews?" in much more depth than the brief essay below, and must not be missed by any serious student of either the gospel or of prophecy.

The Hope of Israel
Written in 1922 by Philip Mauro, is another classic, complementary to the work above, on the topic of the Jews in the prophetic future. It explores in marvelous depth the testimony of both the Old and New Testaments on this issue. (off-site)
