Prophetic truth unfolding today : messages delivered at the Congress on Prophecy convened by the American Board of Mission[s] to the Jews, inc., in the metropolitan New York area
"In an age marked by blatant atheism, secularism, corruption in the church and rejection of Jesus Christ, this book will come as a source of comfort and of urgent consideration to Christians who study and seek to understand God's plan for the ages. For just as prophesied events came into actually throughout the history of Israel, so are they taking place today. It is often asked why there is so much emphasis on prophecy in these days. Is it not overdone? Would it not be better if it were softened down a bit? But prophecy today is not being exploited for sensational reasons; this century is pre-eminently the century of prophetic fulfillment. Apart from the first century A.D., which saw the life, ministry, atoning work, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ, the twentieth century has already witnessed more fulfillment of prophecy than all the other centuries of man's existence on earth. PROPHETIC TRUTH UNFOLDING TODAY contains a message of hope for all who put their faith and trust in Jesus Christ and look to His return with eager longing. Just as it brings hope and comfort to the Christian so must it strike with fear and terror at the ungodly who ignore the warning signs of things to Come. the Bible is to be trusted. The prophecies and promises of God are to be trusted. They stand indestructible even in the face of man's sin and disbelief. God knows the history of the world from its beginning to its end. To Him be the glory both now and forever. These clarion messages by eminent scholars, six of whom were members of the Scofield Editorial Committee, were presented at the Fifth Congress on Prophecy and addressed to Christians of this day and this hour, not using headlines to interpret the Bible, but using the Bible to interpret the Headlines. The Fifth Congress on Prophecy was held in the New York Metropolitan area immediately following the release of the New Scofield Reference Bible. The Conference was sponsored by the American Board of Missions to the Jews, Inc." Publisher
