I read this book preaching through Rev. 2 & 3. You may know Ramsay on the life and history of Paul. Most commentaries get their historical notes on the seven churches from Ramsay (e.g. Barclay’s historical notes). First published in 1904, my copy has no date.

The Ezekiel Option
Newer Novels The Ezekiel Option by Joel Rosenberg is an interesting perception of the battle of Gog and Magog which I almost enjoyed. Minor details always bother me in books like these.
Addresses on Prophecy
I have read these small hard-bound books by Scofield as I have found them. They were printed by The Gospel Hour, INC. directed by Oliver B. Greene but without a publishing date (which was circa 1900+). Scofield was an early Dispensationalist who probably did as much for Bible study as any man in the 20th […]
Come Up Hither
After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will show thee things which must be hereafter. 2And immediately I was in the spirit. Rev. 4:1-2a We […]
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 Basis Of The Premillennial Faith
The following is a collation of books that I have not had space to include over the last couple issues. I heard Charles Ryrie speak last month and purchased two of his books which I had read before. Balancing The Christian Life has been updated in 1994. The chapter on Lordship salvation is especially relevant and the […]
What On Earth Is A Dispensation?
The best book to come out by the new publishing company in Springfield, MO is this 1994 volume. It is authored by nine capable men who are dispensational pretribulationalists and connected with the Baptist Bible Tribune, Baptist Bible College and Graduate School. The uniqueness of the book, in a market flooded with this subject, is […]
Issues in Dispensationalism
This 1994 book is a recent answer to progressive dispensationalism by the editors and ten other contributors (including John Walvoord), also from historically dispensational seminaries. Walvoord says, ‘‘In a word, . . . the men represented by this new movement . . . are building their view on an inadequate definition of the kingdom concept […]
