God, the Architect of the ages, has seen fit to take us into His confidence concerning His plan for the future and has revealed His purpose and program in detail in the Word. Because of the prominence of prophecy in Scripture, many excellent books have appeared dealing with prophetic subjects. Until now, however, the treatment of prophecy has been either apologetic or expository, and prophetic themes have been developed indi-vidually apart from their relation to the whole revealed prophetic program. Much of our knowledge has been only fragmentary and unrelated.
This is no longer true with the appearance of Dr. Pentecost’s monumental text, THINGS TO COME. A massive work in which the author has synthesized the whole field of prophecy into a unified Biblical doctrine, a systematic and complete Biblical eschatology.
Says Dr. John F. Walvoord, President of Dallas Theological Seminary, in his introduction, “Dr. Pentecost has with rare skill dealt with many controversial issues, has met and solved many prophetic problems . . . has condensed a mass of material often not contained in even larger prophetic libraries.
The work as a whole merits classification as a standard and comprehensive text in Biblical eschatology and should serve our generation in this capacity for many years to come.” THINGS TO COME will be a welcomed addition to the library of any pastor, seminarian and college or Bible institute student. In addition, it is a complete and comprehensive study for anyone interested in the important subject of Bible prophecy.
