The Day of the Lord

by Paul Wickliffe

Overview

For the first time in over 20 years the book, The Day of the LORD, presents one of the most definitive, explosive, and Christhonoring works on Bible prophecy and eschatology ever written. This daunting work of scriptural collaboration and insightful research has made a glimpse into the mysterious field of Bible eschatology (the study of biblical last things) easier to understand. This book has set itself apart from all others that have preceded it in three very important ways:
1. A commitment to tow the line on faithful Bible exegesis (interpretation)

2. That only through an understanding of God's pure, INERRANT WORDS can the significance of his future plans for man be discovered (exalting Jesus' words therefore exalting Jesus Christ)

3. And finally, the mystery of God's timing has been resolved through a unifying paradigm known as The Day of the LORD

In addition to its unique approach to the consummation of all things, the book The Day of the LORD has expanded its emphasis on prophecy's timing to reveal a Christcentered, dispensational blueprint for man's presence on this planet. Also included in this book are additional charts of the most widely acclaimed prophetic views. The author has included his own detailed charts and a dispensational outline of past, present, and future events such as the Battle of Armageddon and the LORD's glorious reign and Millennial Kingdom on earth.

Not merely content to trek where others have, the author has committed his efforts to magnify the Messiah through the objective study of Christ's faithful, INERRANT WORDS rather than the subjective personal experience of men—“for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.” (Revelation 19:10)

About the Author

I obtained a B.A. degree in U.S. History in 1982 from the University of San Diego, San Diego, California. I placed my faith and trust solely in Jesus Christ. This life- altering event occurred in November 1976 when, for the first time, I gained my spiritual eyes and could truly hear the still small voice of the LORD. I have grown in my understanding and application of scriptural truth to my life, thanks to the indwelling Holy Spirit. I have learned how to study the Bible: leaving words in their biblical context, avoiding an interjection of personal bias into scriptural interpretation, and comparing the Bible with the Bible (spiritual with spiritual).

While my life has not been without turmoil, the truth is none of these challenges to my convictions have reaped life's rewards more than the previous sixteen years. During this time my journey was not without turbulence, testing, and serious tribulation. Contentment was relinquished for adversity, security exchanged for personal loss, while devastation and self-reliance were replaced with brokenness and surrender. In the diamond mine of life's circumstances, through unanticipated circumstances and pressure, the Master was fashioning something he could finally use for his purposes.

It was in the furnace of trial and testing I discovered what true lordship and submission to Jesus Christ were all about. It was from the Bible's promise that Christ would never leave me nor forsake me, coupled with the conviction that the Bible is the inspired and inerrant word of God (as in the KJV), that God's promises were put into relevant perspective. It is to these unforeseen challenges in my life the Holy Spirit has produced a need to know - in my personal future as well as the biblical fate that awaits mankind.

Even before he chose me for himself, I remember reading on my own, at the tender age of 8, the great Bible's book of beginnings, the Book of Genesis. In the first chapter the words of God himself came off the page and momentarily gripped my inexperienced, young, impressionable heart. It was there I realized, 'O LORD you were before the beginning.' From that point I realized I wanted to know and understand the deep things contained in this book called the Bible. While not knowing the Father, he knew me. He had a plan. That plan was that one day through the word of God revealing my sinfulness and weakness and the Holy Spirit's conviction, he would draw me to himself through Jesus, his Son. Fashioned from the crucible of personal turmoil and lack of direction, the author has been ultimately drawn to God's prophetic promises regarding man, history, and the consummation of all things.
