THE DAY OF THE LORD is an essential book for those who seek an understanding of the actual Old and New Testament prophecies on the end times. This book explores what the Bible actually says about God's plan for the end of this world and the beginning of the next. Most books on end times prophecy gives the author's opinion of what he or she thinks the Bible says about the future. This book highlights the actual prophetic passages with over 300 quotations from scripture. The author's comments are given to help the reader understand how the quotations relate to a specific end times event and where each event fits in the overall timeline of the future revealed in the Bible. The major events of unfulfilled prophecy are chronologically arranged in sixteen chapters containing extensive quotations of the relevant passages on each topic. The focal point of this handbook on end times prophecy is the Word of God, not the opinions of men. It contains quotations in context from 26 different books of the Bible, and an end times chart showing the timing for each event. Each chapter is followed by thought-provoking review questions, making it an excellent guide for a group end times Bible study. For students of end times prophecy, there are many surprises in the quoted passages. People who have not studied end times prophecy will find this book explains the prophetic passages in a very understandable way, as the quoted prophecies reveal the wonderful and exciting future God has planned for His children. Both groups will find this an indispensable reference for locating the important passages on each significant end times event and a valued addition to their library.

This 2nd edition of the popular Studyguide is fully revised, updated and expanded.

The hope of the believer is the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. We may long for the day when trials and tribulation will be ended and Christ will take us to be with Himself, but we are not to be impatient as we await that glad consummation. Christ Himself, seated on the throne of God, is the epitome of patience. “The husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain” (James 5:7). Thus Paul spoke of the “patience of hope.” During all the centuries since Christ ascended to Heaven, as we count time on earth, He has waited patiently for the end of the church’s testimony.
