Review of Last Week’s Comments…
- Eschatology is the Biblical study of end time events
- From the Greek word eschatos, meaning “last in time or in place”
- How we view Eschatology has a direct impact on how we look at current world events, how we live our lives, & what we invest our time in
- Controversial: Some churches avoid Eschatology as an area of study
- Proper Hermeneutics is a must
- Context, Context, Context (“Text without context is pretext”)
- Eschatology not only limited to Revelation. Major eschatological books include Daniel, Ezekiel, Isaiah, all four Gospels, 1 & 2 Thessalonians & Revelation
- The Bible is over 25% prophecy
- 1,845 OT references to Christ’s RETURN (17 OT Books)
- 318 NT references to Christ’s RETURN (216 chp. in 23 books)
- Prophecy is meant to PREPARE us, not SCARE us… the world isn’t falling apart, the pieces are falling together
- Israel & The Church
- Distinctions: different origins, missions, destinations
- “Replacement Theology” denies Israel its place in God’s program
- Makes God a liar
- Laid the basis for Christian Anti-Semitism
- The “70 Weeks” deal specifically with Israel
- Paul’s dichotomy: Jews + Gentiles + Church
- Distinctives reappear after Revelation 4
