Where did we come from? Where are we going? How will the world come to an end? Has God given us clues from which we can deduce an end-time scenario? Will believers be raptured, spared the tribulation... This description may be from another edition of this product.
. . .to counter some of the silliness out there (Jenkins and LaHaye) about the End Times. Fr. William Kurz, SJ, is a noted Catholic New Testament scholar who trained at Yale University and has taught for decades at Marquette University. In this volume, created not for the scholar, but rather for the "Catholic in the Pew", he traces what the Church has REALLY taught about "Last Things", beginning NOT with Revelation -- but rather with Genesis! Throughout, Fr. Kurz expresses a keen grasp of Scripture and biblical interpretation and shows the historically minded Christian the facts of the matter -- rather than fundamentalist hysteria. A well-done book which I have recommended to others.
