Who can make sense of the book of Revelation? Actually, James Jordan can explain it—not in all of its mystical intrigue and many-layered prophecies—but in at least one solid interpretation. Many people lament that they have never read or heard a single take that makes sense. This real-life explanation can get one started in unraveling the enigmatic book. Volume Two “Thunder” covers Revelation chapters 1-11, whereas Volume One addressed the middle of the book deciphering the dragon, sea beast, land beast, false prophet, 144,000, and other intriguing characters.

The book of Judges is a historical account which investigates the lives of people who lived long ago. Some of those lives are going to be tales of caution, while others will be inspiring. Most are people who would not warrant a second look today and would be dismissed as valueless by most, but when viewed through the lens of God’s purpose, we will see that they became much more than they could have dreamed. They become exceptional stories in the greatest story ever told, that is still shaping lives today. Wouldn’t you like your own story to matter like that? Then maybe this study is for...

The importance of understanding this key doctrine makes 2 Corinthians an ideal study for believers today. In this volume of the New Testament Theology series, bestselling author Dane Ortlund explores 2 Corinthians to reveal the core arguments presented by Paul.

Developed through years of teaching the method in church classes and bible studies, this ebook describes a three-part method of Bible study that anyone can use. Through careful reading of the text, the use of some dictionaries and encyclopedias, and some common sense, anyone can learn to engage in sound biblical interpretation. The method draws on three standard approaches: behind the text (historical and cultural), in the text (literary), and in front of the text (the worldview and attitude of the reader). Bringing these three together provides a rich and clear method of biblical ...

We, as a civilization, were not the first to invent and detonate a nuclear weapon. You would not know that weapons of mass destruction—WMD—information is contained in the Old Testament texts because the evidence is not clear-cut and, therefore, not in-your-face type. The Bible interpreters usually employ unnecessary religious iconography to describe events that are simply irreligious. We fail to interpret the Bible according to the authors’ intended meaning. Today, it has become the fad to dismiss the well documented events in the Bible as mythological fairy tales. They do this to ...

Suffering and Pain One questions people always ask Why does God let Christians go through pain and suffering? It would be great if our lives on Earth were always good and nothing bad happened. Because of the fall of man from the perfect life in the beginning, we have to endure the same things that all men have to go through. God does not cause us to suffer and go through pain, but he does allow bad things to happen to good people. What will you learn from this book? We will go through how God allowed Satan to test Job. And how when it was done, Job kept his faith and was rewarded many ...

John Shelby Spong, best-selling author and popular proponent of a modern, scholarly, and authentic Christianity, argues that this last gospel to be written was misinterpreted by the framers of the fourth-century creeds to be a literal account of the life of Jesus when in fact it is a literary, interpretive retelling of the events in Jesus' life through the medium of fictional characters, from Nicodemus and Lazarus to the "Beloved Disciple."

What does it feel like to live an existence with no judgement, no guilt, no shame, no sin consciousness, no sin nature? What does it sound like to abide in the rest of the living Word?...
