There
is a boom today in Christian literature dealing with Biblical
prophecies on the end of the world. Much of this literature treats
the prophecies with either skepticism or sensationalism. The result
is that many ordinary Christians are either abandoning their hope in
the return of Christ, or becoming excessively preoccupied with
watching for imminent events which are supposed to bring about
Armageddon.
In the book The Advent Hope for Human
Hopelessness, Dr. Samuele Bacchiocchi endeavors to meet the
dual challenge of skepticism and sensationalism, by presenting a
balanced Biblical analysis of many vital topics related to the
Second Advent.
Some of the significant questions examined
are: How did the Advent Hope originate and develop in Biblical
history? What is the nature and function of the Advent signs? Which
Advent signs are finding an unprecedented fulfillment in our times?
Can the 1948 establishment of the State of Israel be legitimately
viewed as a major Advent sign of our times?
The Advent Hope for Human Hopelessness
is an important book for the crucial times in which we live. It will
help you to find meaning and courage in the assurance of the Blessed
Hope while living among the uncertainties and trouble of this
present world. |
