This companion book to Dawn of World Redemption (also 1951) takes the history of redemption from the first coming of Christ, through the age of the Church, to the world system of the antichrist, and then to the literal millennial kingdom of God on earth. The order of resurrections is given in detail followed by […]

The Rapture
I have always enjoyed Tim LaHaye’s writings when he writes alone and not fiction. LaHaye has always been a dispensationalist and a pretrib rapturist. I suppose the Left Behind series served a purpose but they were too much fiction and not enough doctrine. In this book, LaHaye returns to his roots and defends the pretrib […]
Re-Thinking the Rapture
In a recent series of messages on the rapture, I reread this small book by Dr. English and again appreciated his insight and graciousness on the subject. As our pre-tribulational view of the rapture has fallen out of favor with some, we will do well to bring great books like this back to the fore. […]
The Account Which We Must Give
This is a 1990 book from Regular Baptist Press. The sub-title is: “Studies on The Judgment Seat of Christ.” I think this kind of study is in great need today. The Bema Seat of Christ ought to be of greatest concern for a Christian yet we seldom think about the seriousness of it. The author […]
Dictionary of Premillennial Theology
This dictionary, obviously from a premillennial, dispensational point of view, pictures on the front, J.N. Darby, C.I. Scofield, L.S. Chafer, H.A. Ironside, John Walvoord, J.Dwight Pentecost. It contains more article-length entries rather than paragraph-length definitions. Many of the articles are on the lives of well-known Christian leaders, historical and contemporary, as well as on many […]
Countdown to Armageddon
This book has two general editors, Joe Jordan and Tim Davis. It is a compilation of 21 articles on prophecy beginning with Daniel’s visions of the Roman Empire and going through The Great White Throne Judgment. Contributors include John Walvoord, Charles U. Wagner, Thomas D. Ice, J. Dwight Pentecost, Charles Ryrie, Elwood McQuaid and others. […]
Facing Millennial Midnight
There are now a number of books dealing with the Y2K problem. I received this book as a gift and was familiar with Hal Lindsey. The book paints a pretty gloom picture of January 1, 2000. He could have titled it, “The Late Great Planet Earth II.” There is no doubt that much of this […]
The Last Days Handbook
The stated purpose of this book is to ‘‘ease the tensions and strengthen ties among (conservative) Bible believers.’’ Lightner surveys evangelical positions regarding eschatology to help us understand the differences we hold as millennialists. He notes that ‘‘evangelicals simply have too much in common to lose to the opposition because of our differences in eschatology.’’ […]
The Pre-Wrath Rapture of the Church
I know that this book was written in 1990 and that many longer reviews have already been written (including one by this writer). But because constant questions arise, constant reminders need to be made. Rosenthal’s view of God’s ‘‘wrath’’ being different than the ‘‘tribulation’’ and the ‘‘great tribulation’’ is not new as he claims. All […]
