In this study, Lynne Moss Bahr explores the concept of temporality as central to Jesus's proclamation of the Kingdom of God. Using insights from continental philosophy on the messianic, which expose the false claim that time progresses in a linear continuum, Bahr presents these philosophical positions in critical dialogue with the sayings of Jesus regarding time and time's fulfillment. She shows how the Kingdom represents the possibilities of a disruption in time, one that reveals the intrinsic relation between God and humanity. In illustrating how Jesus's sayings regarding time are thus expressions of his messianic identity-as of the world and not of the world--Bahr argues that the meaning of Jesus's identity as Messiah is embedded in the disjuncture of time, in the impossibility of "now," from which the Kingdom comes . Bahr's use of critical theory in this study expands the concept of God's Kingdom beyond the traditional confines of the discipline.

The Time is Fulfilled In this volume of essays, based on the 1977 Moore College lectures in Sydney, Australia, F. F. Bruce examines five examples of the fulfillment of the Old Testament in the New. In the first essay, from which the title of the book is taken, Bruce addresses Jesus' words in Mark 1:14Ð15: The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has drawn near; repent and believe the good news. Bruce stresses that in fulfilling the time Jesus is not merely responding passively to conditions favorable to the establishment of his kingdom; rather, he has decisively taken the initiative to inaugurate the fullness of time which he has announced. The remaining essays discuss other instances of the development of Old Testament themes in the New Testament: the ways in which the ministry of Jesus confirms the testimony of Moses; Abraham as the prototype of those elected by God; the notion of a shadow of good things to come (Heb. 10:1); and the spirit of prophecy (Rev. 19:10).

The Time Is Fulfilled, End-Time Prophecy Has Already Started to Happen Here’s What’s Coming Next Dennis Callen had a visitation twice by the presence of the Lord a few years ago, very early in the morning. At that time, the Lord revealed the correct and current interpretation of end-time prophecy, much of which is not the same as is taught today. Of all the books brother Callen has written, this book was the most unique for him in that, he says, it was like taking dictation from the Holy Spirit and not just writing it from his own understanding, research, or opinion. This is one book that will bring the reader up-to-date with current events as the end-time prophecy has recently played out and will show you the exact day the tribulation will start, for the time is at hand. This book is Not a repeat of what has already been written by other writers. In fact, you will find it to be completely different. “Five out of five stars scripturally accurate and easy to read and understand” (Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2019). Most end-time prophecy books I have read all say the same things. A lot of them are private interpretations, which 2 Peter 1:20 says we should stay away from. This book uses scripture to interpret scripture. I have never read anything like this before. It all makes biblical sense to me. I can see how the seals have been opened already. The results of the seals are on the television news almost every day. The Bible says we are to be simple concerning evil (Romans 16:19). So if the book of Revelation is about the tribulation only and all the evil that would take place after we are gone, then this would violate Romans 16:19. However, the book of Revelation is first about setting the stage for the move of God in the greatest revival the world has ever seen, plus the coming wrath of God found in Revelation chapter 16. I don’t know of any other book that is as accurate and exciting to read as this book. You can tell it has the same feel as reading the Bible. Every Christian needs to read this book. I highly recommend it. The book of revelation is taken verse by verse with a clear, easy-to-understand explanation. Of all the books that are out there, this is the only one I recommend highly.
