Soon I'll begin posting threads about End times Bible prophecy. This post lists the loose order and subjects covered. I'm going to slowly roll this out. Hopefully this will reach the right readers, and some will benefit.
My purpose?
1… to inform.
I will first be posting a survey of the schools of thought as a general overview. I would like to persuade everyone to believe my views, but the purpose is not to do that. At least, not until I give good information so every reader can have enough knowledge that they can articulate all the views in their own words.
Then, you make up your own mind.
Some of the subjects will be short, and some will be very long. Hopefully discussion will be prompted, and good things will come of it.
2…To persuade everyone that Eschatology is an unsettled topic in the church, and urge everyone not to be so dogmatic against others that don't share your views on this one topic. As someone stated in a different post, end times prophecy opinions are tertiary, and should never be a topic that fellowship is harmed over.
3…by illustrating how varied the views of Eschatology are, I can remind the reader that our primary function as Christians is to fulfill the great commission; make disciples of Jesus, and teach his commandment. Obsessing over this topic, and being preoccupied to the point that we neglect the great commission is a grave mistake.
4…To provoke people to read and study the Bible much more that they already do.
If there's a prophecy related topic that you want covered, mention it in this thread. Each topic below will get its own thread. I ask that you keep the discussion about each topic in its own individual thread for organizational purposes.
If I make a factual/informational mistake…make it known and I'll edit posts to reflect it.
Also, if you add something in the thread that is relevant, I may edit the original post and add it.
I'll also add videos when I find them.
Here's the list.
