| The 21st Century has brought about a great amount of excitement, fear and concern. We have entered a new millennium and many individuals want to know if the prophecies of the book of Revelation are about to unfold. Your students have questions about the future. THE REVELATION LETTERS provides some practical advice on how to live, individually as believers, and collectively as student ministries. The apostle John was permitted to see visions of the resurrected Jesus and then write letters to seven churches of Asia. Imagine if one of these churches had been your student ministry. What would John have said through the Holy Spirit? As a result of this six session study, your students will come to see the book of Revelation as not just a newspaper for the future, but a manual for today! A bonus simulation, "The Underground Church", allows students to experience what it might be like for the persecuted church in the end times, then be ushered into a worship experience with the Lamb in Heaven. |

| Revelation is a book about the future and about the present. It offers future hope to all believers, especially those who have suffered for their faith. Revelation proclaims Christ's total triumph over evil and the reality of eternal life with him. It also gives guidance for the present as it teaches us about Jesus Christ and how we should live for him now. Through graphic pictures we learn that Jesus Christ is coming again, that evil will be judged, and that the dead will be raised to judgement, headed for either eternal life or eternal destruction. As you read Revelation, look beyond the symbols to your sovereign God and to your Savior, Jesus Christ. And take hope--his victory is sure! |

| No other New Testament book evokes the same fascination, produces wider divergence of interpretation, and is less understood than the book of the Revelation. The Bible was intended to be understood, the author maintains, and Revelation is no exception. Here then is a book for those who have been puzzled b the seals, trumpets, woes, plagues, and vials, for those who do not understand who the beast, the false prophet, and the great red dragon represent, and for those who want to know the meaning for our day of the letters to the seven churches.This tremendous exposition of the capstone of Scripture issues from years of teaching, dedicated study, and sound evangelical scholarship. The author recognizes the book's symbolic features, but points out that much of it can be interpreted literally. He defends the premillennial position, but at crucial points considers other views-the allegorical and historical, and the amillennial and postmillennial approaches. While avoiding technical language, he devotes special attention to textual and doctrinal problems.The doctrine of "last things which," has received unprecedented attention in this century, together with the other major themes of Scripture are consummated in this last book of the Bible For this reason the interpretation of Revelation is essential to an understanding of current trends and the climax of history. The reader of Dr. Walvoord's book will gain a new appreciation of the tremendous themes of Revelation: the Great Tribulation, conflict in heaven and earth, the victory of the Lamb and His followers, the second coming and reign of Christ, and the new heaven and new earth-. |

| In this and its companion volume, William Barclay makes the most difficult book in the Bible easier to understand. In his introduction he examines areas such as the characteristics of apocalyptic literature and the nature of Caesar worship. John was, as Barclay shows, "soaked and saturated" in the Old Testament, and most of the imagery he employs is drawn from that source. Barclay does more than clarify the meaning of the imagery. His commentary covers the central issues of the book, such as the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit, the probable facts about John's exile on the island, and the meaning of Christ's knocking at the door.For almost fifty years and for millions of readers, The Daily Study Bible commentaries have been the ideal help for both devotional and serious Bible study. Now, with the release of The New Daily Study Bible, a new generation will appreciate the wisdom of William Barclay. With clarification of less familiar illustrations and inclusion of more contemporary language, The New Daily Study Bible will continue to help individuals and groups discover what the message of the New Testament really means for their lives. |

| Here the reader meets many of the picturesque images that are identified with Revelation- the four horses and their riders, the antichrist, the woman clothed with the sun, the beast with his number, Armageddon, the Millennium, the new Jerusalem. William Barclay helps the reader understand and interpret these and many other images drawn from Revelation that have so seized hold of the world's imagination. And because so many of John's prophetic utterances relate to Rome, Barclay also devotes many pages to describing the great city as it was under the early Caesars.For almost fifty years and for millions of readers, The Daily Study Bible commentaries have been the ideal help for both devotional and serious Bible study. Now, with the release of The New Daily Study Bible, a new generation will appreciate the wisdom of William Barclay. With clarification of less familiar illustrations and inclusion of more contemporary language, The New Daily Study Bible will continue to help individuals and groups discover what the message of the New Testament really means for their lives. |
