Dan 11:32

In this week's episode we begin a deep dive into Herbert Schlossberg's 1983 classic, Idols for Destruction: The Conflict of Christian Faith and American Culture.

It's been quite some time, but the podcast is back! In this episode I introduce my newest book, What The Church Must Learn From COVID-19... And Why - now available from my website, www.dan1132.com ($20.00 Cdn plus shipping, hardcover, 130 pages), and in Kindle version from Amazon ($9.99).

In this eighth part of the series "Eschatology 101," we examine the second and fifth trumpets of Revelation 8 and 9 in more detail, and discuss the importance of having a Biblically-informed understanding of Revelation, as opposed to the kind of "newspaper exegesis" that is often done in popular studies of eschatology.

There are a lot of "sevens" in the book of Revelation, and this is the seventh episode in this series on Biblical eschatology! In this episode we look at the 144,000 and the "great multitude" in Revelation 7, and give a quick overview of chapter 8.

The identity of the four horsemen of the apocalypse has led to a great deal of speculation. In this episode, we focus on the horsemen and what they represent, as we continue to work through the first chapters of the book of Revelation.

This week we continue where we left off last week, with a look at Revelation 4 and 5. John is welcomed into the heavenly throne room, where we are introduced to the scroll with seven seals, and the Lamb who is found worthy to open it.

In this episode, we'll look at the historical context of the Revelation of Jesus Christ to John, and the situation of the seven churches in Asia Minor that first read this book in their congregations. We see how the message of Revelation was meant for these churches in their historical situations, and look at an example from the book of Acts about the challenges that the first generation of Christians had to face.

In Revelation 1:1, we're told that the revelation of Jesus Christ was given "to show to his servants the things that must soon take place." In this episode, we look at the time indicators in the book of Revelation, and ask the question: Does "soon" mean "soon"?

This is the second part of a series on eschatology, the Biblical doctrine of the last things. In this episode, we'll look at a couple of Old Testament passages that will help us to understand the significance of the kind of "cosmic" language that is often used in the book of Revelation, as well as the covenant blessings and curses listed in the book of Leviticus.

Today's episode is the first of a series on the subject of eschatology - the study of "the ultimate or final things." Given the current events happening in the Middle East, the subject of eschatology has been on many people's minds of late. In this series we will be studying what Scripture has to say - beginning in this episode with a study of the "Little Apocalypse" of Matthew 24.
