Book excerpt: In Matthew 24:3, in response to Jesus' prediction of the coming destruction of Jerusalem, the disciples asked: "When shall these things be, and what shall be the sign of your coming and the end of the age." All futurist eschatologies hold that the disciples were confused and wrongly connected that impending Jewish catastrophe with Christ's coming at the "end of time"? But, what if the apostles were NOT confused? What if they were right to make that connection? What if the end of the age and Christ's coming were in fact inseparably linked in prophecy?In this examination of these probitive questions, prolific author, debater, lecturer, Don K. Preston sets out in this unprecedented book to show that it was not Jesus' apostles who were confused, but rather, futurist commentators! This is a ground breaking book. You will not find another book like it! But, the exegesis is rock solid, the logic is compelling, the evidence is powerful! This book may well change your entire view of eschatology!
