Back In 7

This is the sixth book in a series of seven with a breakthrough exegesis of the Book of Revelation. This book covers 22 “signs of the times” of Jesus’ return and of the end of the age which we are supposed to recognise them when we see them. However, 10 have already happened in the last 50-100 years and 10 more are happening around us today. This leaves only two to come and one is the actual, visible return of Christ. We need to catch up.

The Book of Revelation reveals seven of these signs – trumpets them so to speak – which any 1st century Jewish teenager would have easily recognised as an extraordinary, world-wide repeat of the fall of Jericho. In that day c. 1400 BC when the seven trumpets sounded, “the walls came a-tumblin’ down” as we still sing today, opening the way for the children of Israel into the Promised Land; in our day, the seventh trumpet blast is about to destroy the defences of the whole world and the meek will inherit it, renewed.

Graeme seeks answers to questions few think to ask: where in the Old Testament did John find all of his images and metaphors, and what did they mean there? Why does God choose the signs that He does? Why seals, trumpets, and bowls? What else would a 1st century Jewish teenager have already known and readily recognised? This book offers the answers.
