The Second Coming of Christ: Basic Bible Doctrines of the Christian Faith (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780692611135)

In every generation, Christians have looked forward to one great promise: Jesus Christ will return. Yet few biblical teachings have been surrounded by as much confusion, speculation, and misunderstanding as the doctrine of the Second Coming.

In The Second Coming of Christ, Edward D. Andrews brings readers back to the only reliable source for understanding this vital subject-the Bible itself. Drawing from the unified testimony of the prophets, the teachings of Jesus, the writings of the apostles, and the visions of Revelation, this book presents a clear and careful study of what Scripture truly says about Christ's return and the events surrounding it.

Rather than relying on sensational predictions or complicated prophetic systems, Andrews applies the historical-grammatical method to reveal the consistent biblical framework of the end of the age. Readers will explore the Old Testament foundations of the coming King, Jesus' own teaching about His return, the apostolic explanation of the last days, the rise of the man of lawlessness, the final conflict with the beastly order, the resurrection of the dead, the judgment of the world, the millennial reign of Christ, the defeat of Satan, and the renewal of creation.

More than a study of future events, this book restores the Second Coming to its rightful place as the central hope of biblical Christianity-a promise that calls believers to faithfulness, endurance, and confident expectation.
