The 50 Final Events in World History: The Bible's Last Words on Earth's Final Days

by Robert J. Morgan

Overview

How much do you know about the end of the world?

In The 50 Final Events in World History, beloved and respected pastor Robert J. Morgan takes readers on a journey through end-times prophecy, walking step-by-step through the end of the world to the dawn of the new kingdom of heaven.

Heard of worldwide pandemics? Weapons of mass destruction flashing through the air? Global water and air contamination? The nation of Israel restored after 2,000 years, encircled by hostile nations and buffered by the nation of Jordan? Air evacuations with machines having two wings? Threats from Russia and Asia? Extremism in Turkey? Clamor for globalization? Hand implants for commerce and security? The gospel penetrating unreached places? Violent persecution? Cascading wickedness? The world falling apart?

All of this is predicted in the book of Revelation.

If you find yourself baffled and maybe even a little intimidated by end times and the book of Revelation, The 50 Final Events in World History will be a

• comprehensive yet easy-to-understand overview of the book of Revelation,
• resource you can turn to again and again,
• helpful tool that translates the events of Revelation both literally and sequentially,
• and guide to interpret present circumstances as well as future events.

Revelation is the Bible's final words on the world's last days. The key is understanding its simple sequence of events–one after another, clearly laid out­–the fifty final events in world history.

This is information we need to know now since we might soon be on the doorstep of event #1.
