Eschatology explores end times, biblical prophecy, dispensationalism, Scofield theology, Christian Zionism, and preterist interpretation through the lens of Scripture and historical context.

I’ve embedded three of them below. Yes, they are a bit …
I’m in the midst of reading Christianity’s Great Dilemma – Is Jesus Coming Again or Is He Not? Glenn L. Hill is a pastor who changed his mind regarding what the Bible teaches about the Second Coming of Jesus and the related happenings foretold in Scripture.
