Traversing The Last Days

This book is intended to present a fresh perspective on Biblical Prophecy from a slightly different angle. Sometimes clarity can come from a most unlikely direction. The Bible is the most amazing book because it is the primary source for knowing and understanding God’s will and plans from the past and for the present and future. We are living in a world of incredible, rapid change and many Christians and Non-Christians alike are looking for clarity and understanding about the second coming of Jesus Christ. This book will help you sort out some of the details, challenge you to seek God’s will, help you interpret the times, and see God at work in this very day. At the very heart of this effort is hope: the hope that we find in a personal relationship with Jesus that comes from knowing and participating in God’s plans, and the hope that a brighter day is coming to a world that can often seem hopeless. Christians are called to be ready, alert, and aware of the signs that will help us to know when Jesus will return to earth. If there was ever a time to get our bearings, it is now.

The very title of the last book of the Bible means "unveiling." Yet this mysterious and confusing book seems to do anything but unveil, especially when we read it on our own. Unlocking the Last Days takes readers through key parts of this misunderstood book, using a verse-by-verse approach that clearly communicates God's truth, warnings, and promises. Both Bible teachers and students will find this book a welcome aid to understanding an intriguing piece of the Scriptures.

Have you been wondering as a Christian, or non-Christian, what many think -- and expect -- will happen in the "last days" or "end times" with all the talk and focus in the headlines -- and some churches -- about our future? And with all the events taking place in the Middle East, especially Israel? And Iran? Are you confused because of various end-time scenarios and conflicting opinions promoted through popular books on prophecy, the Left Behind series, televangelists, preachers, and others speaking of a great tribulation, rapture, Armageddon, Apocalypse, the destruction of the earth, a new heaven and earth, a second coming, and a millennium? There has been an overload of teaching and information about these things over the last century -- however sincere and cloaked in good intentions -- yet with long-held and deep-seated traditions and doctrines, all borne of a lack of accurate knowledge (particularly the Hebrew and Greek) and information based on compelling evidence. Would you like to know what the Bible actually says about all these issues? For God's Word itself -- "Let Scripture Interpret Scripture" -- and the Holy Spirit are the only necessary interpreters. The Last Days Are Left Behind will challenge your thinking, help to erase the confusion, and provide clarity regarding the present-day purpose of God. Author James Ellis demonstrates end-time truth based logically on solid evidence after a linguistically accurate, biblically consistent, and intellectually honest examination of the Bible's prophetic passages and verses, the original languages -- Hebrew and Greek, the social, cultural, and historical context of Scripture, and the relevance of the audience spoken or written to in God's Word.
