Showing titles in Prophets

For many Christians reading the Old Testament, trying to understand Israel's prophets is like listening to just one side of a phone conversation—you only get half the idea of it. You hear the answer, but how do you know what question the prophet is answering? In The Lost Letters to the Twelve Prophets, John Goldingay uncovers the questions behind the prophets' answers that make their meaning and relevance intelligible to us.

Paul’s 13 letters are a radical departure from the rest of Scripture, including Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The only place in the Bible where you will find details concerning God’s remedy for restoring the heavens is in the 13 letters of Paul. The only place in Scripture where you will find law tossed out the window is in the 13 letters of Paul. The only books in the entire Bible dealing with the special salvation of gentiles (non-Israelites), who sin as a vocation and have never even heard of Moses, are the 13 letters of Paul.

Habakkuk described an era of rampant moral and social evil among his own people, and a vision of the rapid rise of the Babylonian empire under Nebuchadnezzar. The world he described is familiar in so many eras of human history, including our own. The frightening international tensions, confusion about political alignments and alliances, fractured moral and religious traditions, and social dissolution and degradation cause the same fear and anxiety today as they did back then.

Watchmen seem like the most pessimistic of the prophets. They are oftentimes labeled as “gloom and doom”. But it is due to the Lord’s commission for watchmen to warn others of potential or oncoming danger. Their calling and purpose come with a weighty mandate from the Lord, and consequences if they fail to warn others of things to come. "The Watchman: What Do You See?" is meant to give a greater understanding of what a watchman is and what the Lord’s calls a watchman to do for His glory. Like an owl, the Lord sees what people do even in the dark. He also shows His servants, such as ...

Have you inherited a legacy of broken people and relationships in desperate need of grace and transformation? Many people live in daily bondage to their dysfunction, paralyzed by the fear, anxiety, or guilt it brings. Unwittingly, we become prisoners to our dysfunction and perpetuate its impact to the next generation. Dysfunction is almost unavoidable in a world like ours. Yet we still must find a way to survive in this world and thrive spiritually, even as we navigate all the pitfalls. This is why the biblical story of Joseph is so relevant for us today.

The Book of Daniel provides six calculations to determine the duration of the 70-Week prophecy, which is 2485 years, and pinpoint the exact calendar years for each of the seven major events that occur during the course of the prophecy from 444 BC to 2042. Six events have come true, and the last one will come true in 2042 as calculated by the six equations derived from Daniel and Revelation. The Seven-Year Tribulation Theory misinterprets Daniel’s 70-Week Prophecy. It compresses almost everything written in the Books of Daniel and Revelation into the last seven years, which is too short of...

One of the challenges of this age for Jesus’ disciples will be to discern the many false prophets who are among us and, and with that discerning ability, still function in the Spirit and in the love of God amid the apparent contradictions. The red dragon is the original serpent, called the Devil and Satan (Revelation 12:9). The fiery red dragon in the book of Revelation used his tail to throw a third part of the stars of heaven to the earth.

This book explores the concept of prophecy in Judaism as defined by two great figures of Jewish history. Moses Maimonides and Abraham Joshua Heschel are two influential scholars who have impacted the many streams of Judaism. A simplistic dichotomy could be made between their two perspectives labeling Maimonides as a rational philosopher and Heschel as a mystical one. Both the study of Jewish prophecy and the approaches of both of the scholars are complex topics, but not impossible to decipher. The nature of revelation is also part of this discussion.
