Yet this is no reason to fear. In this fascinating, accessible, and personal book, Brown and Keener walk you through what the Bible really says about the rapture, the tribulation, and the end times.

In A History of the Bible, John Barton argues that the Bible is not a prescription to a complete, fixed religious system, but rather a product of a long and intriguing process, which has inspired Judaism and Christianity, but still does not describe the whole of either religion. Barton shows how the Bible is indeed an important source of religious insight for Jews and Christians alike, yet argues that it must be listened to in its historical context - from its beginnings in myth and folklore to its many interpretations throughout the centuries....

With careful consideration and exegesis, internationally known astrophysicist and Christian apologist Hugh Ross adds yet another compelling argument to the case for the veracity of the biblical commentary on the history of the universe, Earth, life, and humanity.

John writes to a believer named Gaius urging him to continue walking in truth and love. Along with general instruction for Church leaders, the apostle warns about those who oppose the Gospel of Jesus Christ, specifically warning Gaius about a man named Diotrephes. An individual with selfish ambition that is never satisfied, Diotrephese is no different from much of the opposition we face today. Listen to John as he addresses this in his godly wisdom.

The whole Bible teaches truth and awakens emotions, but the Psalms are in a category of their own. They do not just awaken the heart; they put it in the foreground. They do not merely invite our emotions to respond to God's truth; they put our emotions on display. The Psalms are more than commanding-they are contagious. We are not just listening to profound ideas and feelings. We are living among them in their overflow.

Comme ses ancêtres pendant des siècles, le lecteur d'aujourd'hui peut écouter la Bible. Des générations ont ainsi écouté les récits des personnages bibliques célèbres qu'ils savaient ensuite reconnaître aux vitraux, aux fresques et aux sculptures des églises. La Bible a été écrite pour être écoutée. Depuis les assemblées de Juifs exilés en Babylonie, six siècles avant notre ère, jusqu'aux synagogues, églises et temples d'aujourd'hui, en passant par les synagogues de Galilée que fréquentaient Jésus et ses disciples : sans cesse les livres de la Bible ont nourri la foi des Juifs et des Chrétiens.
