When We Are: A Logical Assessment of Bible Prophecy, the End Times, and the Second Coming of Christ (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780983477426)

"... for I am God, and there is none like me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure" (Isaiah 46:9-10)

Take a prophetic journey through time. Our tour will span a little over twenty-six centuries. From two different perspectives, we will view the rise and fall of empires, as well as other movements of history. Looking forward through the prophetic lenses provided in the Bible, and backward through our 20/20 lens of hindsight, we will view the same events transform from imagery to reality, from beasts to nation-states, from the pages of foresight to the pages of our own history books. And before this journey is over, you will know When We Are.

The result of decades of serious searching for answers to the difficult questions, you will not find the same conflicting theories offered in the popular Bible commentaries and study Bibles. Here they exposed and corrected; from the 4 beasts of Daniel 7 to the identity of "the restrainer" in 2nd Thessalonians 2, and much more. You will learn the history of how these overlooked errors made their way into the notes of study Bibles and Bible commentaries and into the teachings of the some of the most popular Bible teachers of our times. But even more surprising is how real the Bible becomes as prophecy rises from the pages of Scripture in a way that you likely never saw before; to find fulfillment in our own history books, right up to the 21st century - our time now.

Here's a sample of what you will get. The serious Bible student should immediately detect the difference between what this book offers and what is found in the most popular Bible commentaries:

Daniel 7:24 - The Horns of the Beast: Conquering Kingdoms

Daniel 7:24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.

The horns are revealed to be kings, but we are not told anything else about them. Many conservative scholars link these ten kings of Daniel to the ten kings of Revelation 17:12 (also represented by 10 horns), but there are noteworthy differences. The beast of Revelation has seven heads. This one does not. The ten kings of Revelation do not have another king rising up after them to subdue three kings, as we have here in Daniel. Revelation's kings will reign together at the very end and will make war with the Lamb, only to meet their demise (Revelation 17:12-14). But Daniel's fourth beast, in its devouring, treading down, and dividing the whole earth presents a history that is mostly behind us (though prophetic at the time of writing). This is a different beast, and its horns are a part of its message; possibly indicating how and by whom the world would be devoured, trodden down, and broken in pieces.
Looking back into the days of European colonization, we find that there were indeed ten kingdoms that took part in devouring the whole earth: Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands (Dutch), France, England, Denmark/ Norway[i], Sweden, Belgium, Germany and Italy [ii]. That makes ten nations out of the fourth beast that colonized the world. They literally divided it up.

[i] The Denmark-Norway union ran from 1524-1814.
[ii] Russia is not included as it emerged from the Byzantine Empire, the second beast (the bear raised up on one side) and is not of the fourth beast.

Complete with time charts, maps and comparison tables, as well as a section on readiness as we approach the very end of our "prewritten story," this resource will not only inform you regarding When We Are, it will also prepare you on what to do about it.
