A Guide for Bible Study

Paul S. Minear presents a method for interpreting apocalyptic literature that is both biblically sound and relavant to persons today. Distinguishing this genre from that of prophecy, Dr. Minear explores in detail the forces and events that gave impetus to the apocalyptic movement. He then focuses on eight key texts from Revelation, 1 Peter, Romans, and Hebrews, and shows how the apocalyptic writings can be effectively used in modern teaching and preaching. He discusses the dramatic resurgence of apocalyptic thought in a fascinating overview of the modern charismatic movement. For those students, preachers, and teachers who seek to use this often controversial material in sermons and lessons, Dr. Minear's excellent book makes a most welcome guide. -- from book's back cover
