The Early Church and the End of the World

New THE EARLY CHURCH AND THE END OF THE WORLD

Gary DeMar & Francis X. Gumerlock, 2006

$24.95Ships within
24 hours!
Secure
Order Form

The claim has been made by a number of prophecy writers that the early church was predominately premillennial on millennial issues and exclusively futuristic on almost everything else. This means that early Christian writers who commented on prophetic passages like the Olivet Discourse (Matt. 24, Mark 13, Luke 21) believed and wrote that the biblical authors were always referring to events in the distant future just before the return of Christ. While these claims have been made with certainty, there has always been a lack of clear historical documentation to back them up. Sometimes the historical record has been stretched and exaggerated to fit an already developed theory. But since the futurist perspective has been promoted as an early church reality by so many for so long, few people today actually question it. The Early Church and the "End of the World" is the first book to question the prevailing futurist view by a careful study of the historical record. 180 pages, hardcover.

The Return of Jesus in Early Christianity

THE RETURN OF JESUS IN EARLY CHRISTIANITY

John T. Carroll with Alexandra R. Brown, Claudia J. Setzer and Jeffrey S. Siker, 2000

$24.95Ships within

Secure
Order Form

In The Return of Jesus in Early Christianity, John T. Carroll and three other scholars describe the origins of this hope in ancient writings and its persistence to the present. Chapters on the New Testament explore the theme of the parousia, or return, of Jesus in the Synoptic Gospels and Acts, in the writings of Paul (a chapter by Alexandra Brown), in the Johannine writings, and in the Catholic Epistles. Jeffrey S. Siker describes Christian hope for Jesus' return in the two hundred years after the last New Testament books were written. Claudia J. Setzer relates the Christian hope to Jewish messianic expectations. A final chapter surveys key developments from Augustine through the Reformation to North American developments. Carroll concludes that even at the end of the twentieth century, Christian theology is irreducibly eschatological. 236 pages, hardcover, bibliography, index.

In this timely book, Ulrich Kortner addresses the issue of apocalyptic anxiety by offering a theological and philosophical evaluation of the apocalyptic.

This book follows the story of the world's end, as it has been told through the centruies--a story with many strands and a cast of colorful characters, ranging from Greek mythology, to Noah, Augustine, William Miller, and the gurus of the New Age. Chandler masterfully combines both history and futurology to provide a fascinating look at how people believe the world will end. He leads us in a view through time. Looking back, as though thumbing through a photograph album, he examines the thoughts, moods, fears, and expectations of prominent saints, sinners, communities, and movements, certain that the end was near.
