Review Summary: The Footsteps of the Messiah |
Date: 2008-11-18 |

Details: This is a scholarly presentation as to authentic historical, prophetic and biblical resources, yet very readable. He includes fair representations of all eschatogical positions as to the past, present and future events leading up to the last days of this world. The series of charts enhance the understanding of the written text. A 'must read'. |

Review Summary: Very Unreliable, Especially with the Old Testament |
Date: 2008-09-11 |

Details: I am a pretribulationist, and I have been on the prowl to see if there is a recent release that can match up to J. Dwight Pentecost's massive and classic tome, "Things to Come." This is not it.
Dr. Fruchtenbaum has weird ideas on almost every page, far too often to be a reliable resource for the student of prophecy. Where should I begin? First of all, he believs that the antichrist will be supernaturally born of a virgin just like Jesus was. He also applies nearly every Old Testament prophecy of judgment to the future Great Tribulation, when at least half of these prophecies probably refer to the judgment on Israel at the time of the Assyrians or to Judgment on Judah at the time of Nebuchadnezzar (a very common dispensational error which ignores the historical and biblical context of the prophecy).
Fruchtenbaum also believes that each one of the churches in Asia Minor represents a different era in history from the time of Christ to today, even though I doubt seriously whether the apostle John would have thought of this. Furthermore, who decides which historical events to use?
This problem is exacerbated even further with Fruchtenbaum's identification of the 4th beast of Daniel 7, which he applies to many different kingdoms stretching from the time of the Roman Empire until today. He regularly interprets the prophetic scriptures in a way which would be totally alien to the authors who wrote them down.
Certainly, there are OT passages which speak of a future tribulation - Deuteronomy 30, Jeremiah 30:4-7, etc), but not nearly as many as Dr. Fruchtenbaum would suggest.
There are many more strange and novel interpretations, and it is ironic because Dr. Fruchtenbaum presents himself as a champion of literal interpretation.
My recommendation is to skip this expensive book. It's not worth the money and you are far better served to get Pentecost's book. |

Details: This is an excellent resource for those who are interested in obtaining a Biblical view of eschatology. It is detailed, thorough, and well organized. As an undergraduate Bible and theology major, I found myself leaning toward an amillenial view of the end times. My study of the Bible and this book, however, have solidified my current "pre-trib./pre-mill." position. While my soteriology is still reformed and my form of worship Anglican, my eschatology is now dispensational. |

Review Summary: Eschatology: This is a MUST read |

Details: I found this book phenomenal - an absolute must to anyone wishing to learn and understand God's word. It will help lay a solid foundation of understanding on which the rest of God's word and God's plan will sit.
This book will answer every question you have concerning the sequence of (and details of) yet-future prophetic events and God's future plan for mankind. The author with ease, points out God's teachings straight from the bible and inserts nearly all scripture text being discussed. He uses the King James bible translation so if you prefer NIV or NASB (etc.) be prepared to open your own bible while reading this book. This book is captivating, intriguing and amazing. This book also has some amazing content within its Appendix. This book is a must to anyone wishing to understand God's word. |
