SYNOPSIS: There is one area of theology, eschatology (the study of latter day predictive prophecy), where believers are so cautious, because of the presence of so many competing claims and interpretations, that they are afraid to take any particular stand. Some, who are strict elsewhere, adopt the liberal theory that all believers? prophetic views are equally valid and should not be challenged. Individuals and congregations therefore remain confused, susceptible to every wind of change and at the mercy of the persuasive preacher, author or hymnologist. This ought not to be. Indeed, it need not be. Some conscientious and caring pastors and teachers are, on the one hand, eager to preach about the Lord?s return and other key end-time matters, but are, on the other hand, hesitant to enter contentious territory. Consequently churches are perceived as sending out mixed messages. This inevitably undermines the authority of Scripture in the eyes of the world outside. The author believes there is a unique, God-given key to help us unravel the conflicting prophetic programmes which abound. We might define this key as Israel?s guaranteed future as a nation and race, based upon God?s faithful promises. This does not disallow Jews from becoming Church members in the present age. God?s promises to Israel include both conditional and unconditional, both short term and long term, both fulfilled and unfulfilled, both blessings and cursings. These classifications are of course significant, and we will have to differentiate between them. But what is paramount is God?s faithfulness. That cannot be negotiated. Any scheme which does not allow God to fulfil His unconditional promises is fatally flawed. Where God has promised ultimate forgiveness and restoration, let no man dare to know better! This book examines what the Bible says about Israel and the future, then applies this to different teachings, demonstrating that those schools of prophecy which selectively deny God?s promises to Israel effectively invalidate themselves. If we fail to recognise the significance of the vast number of prophetic passages in Scripture which refer to Israel, we will fail to perceive the overall programme of latter day events. Such terms as ?The Four Horses of the Apocalypse?, ?The Mark of the Beast? and ?The Battle of Armageddon? tend to be better known to film directors than to churchmen. There is a need to rectify this imbalance and to address two dangerous extremes. One is the teaching that such things are the province of pessimists, and that predicted calamities were deliberate exaggerations on the part of prophets to drive lessons home. The other is the scoffing attitude foretold by Peter, leading to apathy akin to that of Jesus? First Coming. None should willingly share the condemnation of the two disciples returning to Emmaus on the evening of the Resurrection day: ?O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken? (Luke 24:25). Their folly had led to unnecessary heartbreak. A further need is for enquiring Jews to receive assurances that there are Christians who do not believe that they as a nation have been for ever dismissed from God?s future plans, as some teach, and that their displacement from the centre of God?s purposes over the centuries by the largely Gentile Church has a strict time limit. They need to be re-assured that God has beautifully co-ordinated plans for all His people. In the meantime they may be individually welcomed into the Church on the same basis as everyone else. There never has been, never will be and never can be any means of salvation for sinners than through the blood of the Lamb, Christ Jesus, shed on Calvary?s Cross. Jesus is described as the Lamb more often in Revelation than in any other book of the Bible. God has never saved by any other means. Whether one is Jew or Gentile, repentance and faith are required in order that this redeeming blood may be applied. REAR COVER TEXT: The whole world is moving towards a great crisis. Millions of earth''s inhabitants live in fear. Devastating earthquakes, pandemic diseases, the demise of democracies, global terrorism, the Middle East conflict, all prompt the question, ?Where will it all end?? The Bible alone tells us the truth about man''s destiny, and lays out God''s plan and purposes for the end of time. And, puzzling for many, His plan is tied up with the destiny of the people of the Jewish nation, Israel, which is being restored before our very eyes! Apocalypse means unveiling. ''The'' Apocalypse refers to God''s Unveiling, as contained in Revelation, the final book of the Bible. It foretells future happenings, some glorious, some horrendous. Other books of the Bible contain important apocalyptic sections, such as Jesus'' own lengthy Olivet Discourse. These add much to our knowledge; but Revelation supplements them and puts all into perspective. This book is the result of fifty-seven years of Biblical research undertaken by the analytical and concentrated mind of a man deeply committed to the Word of God and the God of the Word. It unlocks the prophetic Scriptures, which have so long been obscured, and even denied, through blind Anti-Semitic prejudice and use of inconsistent hermeneutic. Doctor Cameron has untangled the many differing and confusing views, which have sadly deterred many from studying the ?end times? as revealed to us in Holy Scripture. This gifted writer clears much of the fog of confusion caused by conflicting and mistaken, though sometimes sincerely held views. His closely reasoned and detailed treatment of schools with differing claims is outstanding and most helpful. His assertion that Israel is the key to a correct understanding is ably set forth. As an Educational Officer, Donald Cameron commanded the Army?s Russian Language Wing and was British Liaison Officer to the Soviet Military Liaison Mission in West Germany. He has been a leadership training consultant, and has himself been in leadership in several churches.

There is a great difference, carefully marked out in the Scriptures, between the ministry of John and that of Paul and Peter. That of Paul (as stated in Colossians 1), had a twofold character corresponding with the two headships of Christ; namely, that of the gospel which was preached in the whole creation under heaven, flowing from Christ's preeminence in creation; and that of the church, the body of Christ, as connected with Him as its head. The ministry of Peter, on the other hand, was confined to the circumcision. While he touches on the church as a spiritual house, which was being built up of believers as living stones on Christ as the Living Stone, he yet, as guided by the Holy Spirit, views believers in the character of pilgrims on their way, with Christ risen as their living hope, to "an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time" (1 Peter 1:4-5). But John holds a different place. He does not enter into dispensations; nor, though once or twice stating the fact (as in John 13:1; John 14:1-3; John 17:24; John 20:17), does he take the saint, nor even the Lord Himself, up to heaven. Jesus, for him, is a Divine Person, the Word made flesh manifesting God and His Father, eternal life come down to earth. In addition to this, another kind of ministry was committed to him, even if at the moment mysteriously, by the Lord after His resurrection, in the words addressed to Peter concerning John, "If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee?" (John 21:22). For there can scarcely be a question that the book of Revelation is the fulfillment of the mission for which he was thus designated. It may be said, moreover, that a closer examination reveals an intimate connection between the last two chapters of his gospel and the Apocalypse. In John 20, in addition to the setting forth of the assembly as gathered with Christ Himself in the midst, there is the conversion of the Jewish remnant of a later day, typified by Thomas who believed when he saw. (See Zech. 12:10-13.) John 21 gives the gathering in of the nations in the millennium, shown in figure by the disciples letting down their net on the right side of the ship, at the command of the risen Christ, and not being able to draw it for the multitude of fishes. There are therefore three epochs in these chapters: that of the church, that of the conversion of the Jewish remnant which will take place at the Lord's appearing, and that of the ingathering of the nations after the kingdom has been established in power. The book of Revelation contains these three epochs presented in a special way after the vision of the Son of Man recorded in Revelation 1, together with the events in heaven and the judgments upon earth, which are connected with and precede the appearing of Christ as the rightful Heir to take His power, to make good in government all that God is, as revealed in relation to the earth, and to reign until all enemies are put under His feet. The eternal state, in all its beauty and perfection, closes the subject of the book-that wondrous scene wherein God is all in all.

In the two thousand years that have elapsed since the time of Christ, Christians have been as much divided by their faith as united, as much at odds as in communion. And the contents of Christian confession have developed with astonishing energy. How can believers claim a faith that has been passed down through the ages while recognizing the real historical contingencies that have shaped both their doctrines and their divisions? In this carefully argued essay, David Bentley Hart critiques the concept of "tradition" that has become dominant in Christian thought as fundamentally incoherent. He puts forth a convincing new explanation of Christian tradition, one that is obedient to the nature of Christianity not only as a "revealed" creed embodied in historical events but as the "apocalyptic" revelation of a history that is largely identical with the eternal truth it supposedly discloses. Hart shows that Christian tradition is sustained not simply by its preservation of the past, but more essentially by its anticipation of the future. He offers a compelling portrayal of a living tradition held together by apocalyptic expectation--the promised transformation of all things in God.
