After you get past the dry & boring first couple chapters, it started getting better & better. Discussion on mercy, justice, & compassion for everyone especially the poor & downtrodden. Brought up issues where we are all "snobs" in areas you would never have imagined. Very enlightening.

The author's investigation of all things eschatological and his conclusions.

Since eschatology is always a subject that leads to great fascination the author decided to set forth the results of his own study. Those results cannot be easily fit into a pre-existent paradigm, for better and for worse.

The author explores the hope of Christianity, God's rule in His Kingdom, death and life, various millennial theories, end time signs, the antichrist, the role of Israel, tribulation and rapture, Armageddon, the return of Jesus, the resurrection and judgment, heaven and hell, and a conclusion to exhort believers toward faithfulness.

The author does well at explaining the present rule of God in Christ in the church, the manifold difficulties of dispensational premillennialism, the bodily nature of the resurrection and its implications, the singularity of the final judgment, the nature of heaven and hell, and the conclusion of exhortation. The author expects the ingathering of Israel and is more Zionist than would otherwise be expected out of an Anglican espousing amillennialism, although he does speak of his raising among Christian Zionists.

In general, an alright guide through much of eschatology, but caveat emptor; study the Scriptures for yourself. :)
