Details: Dr. Adrian P. Rogers, a prince of preachers, shares the fruit of his pulpit prowess in Unveiling the End Times in Our Time: The Triumph of the Lamb in Revelation. By reading this book you will be introduced to the major players in future world events; you will be informed about the culmination of God's plan of the ages; and you will be inspired to live each day anticipating the fulfillment of our Lord's promise to return. I whole-heartedly recommend this book!

Details: Adrian Rogers explains in very simple to understand terms the Book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ. He believes that the Bible is the inerrant word of Almighty God. From this basis, all Scripture explains Scripture. Therefore, I believe this book to be a very helpful tool to open to the reader an understanding of the Word of God. In Genesis, God created heaven and earth. In Revelation He comes as King of kings and Lord of Lords and creates a new heaven and earth with no more suffering and no more death. |

Review Summary: Good Overall but Could Be Much Better |

Details: Adrian perpetuates of the church age (which is a harmful myth to perpetuate) when he says started "when Jesus came the first time" and will end "when he will come a second time". Actually, if there was any so called church age, it started with the angels when they were created, who then worshipped Christ, God, and the Holy Spirit, and at the very least when Adam, Eve, and Abel existed. Contrary to what many confused Christians think, these three and the ancient Jews of the OT were not saved by sacrificing sheep, but rather the gospel, as the NT clearly teaches, so, so much for the "church" age. And the church will certainly not cease to exist, so I don't get how it can end.
In his explanation of when the rapture is going to be, he explains himself poorly. He says he doesn't no when it will be because no one knows the day or hour when Jesus returns (which implies he believes that that is when it will happen.) It would have been much better if he had just said, "The rapture will happen when Jesus will return to judge the world." And most Christians already know that you can't know the day or hour Jesus will return. The good thing is that he didn't teach that the rapture would occur before the tribulation.
He also seemed to imply that you can't get a good idea as to when Jesus will return with the day or hour comment, but that would mean all the prophecies in the Bible are useless, and obviously they are not.
So aside from that apparent contradiction, this book is decent, but I would try and find something better that is more clear in the rapture area. |

Review Summary: "One of the three or four best on this subject!" |

Details:
Adrian Rogers recently passed away, and with him, some of the finest teaching skills in Christendom.
His Revelation is one of the best books on the subject. His strength is talking to the reader--not at the reader.
If you want Revelation in-depth, you might seek out "Revelation for the Complete Idiot". If you want a scholarly work, read Mounce.
If you want a teenager-oriented (or brand new believer, or teacher) book on Revelation, there is nothing better than: "Dragons, Grasshoppers, & Frogs!" by Jerry L. Parks.
But if you want a conversational-style commentary--one with wonderful alliteration (which Rogers was the best at!) look no further than this book. You will not be disappointed! |
