What is This Study About?
What does the Bible actually say about the end times that lead to the return of Jesus Christ? TV shows and movies throw around words such as Antichrist, Great Tribulation, Rapture, 666, and the Second Coming of Christ, but what do the Scriptures say? The differing ideas that divide believers into four major points-of-view are examined in the Four Views of the End Times. This DVD-based study (for personal or group use) explains each view objectively:
- Dispensational Premillennialism
- Amillennialism
- Postmillennialism
- Historical Premillennialism
Speaker Dr. Timothy Paul Jones shows diagrams and discusses each of the four main positions, how each came about, which Scriptures are used to support the view, a time line of the view's popularity, and a sampling of Christian leaders both past and present who support that view.
Who is This Study For?
This DVD-based study is perfect for small groups, Bible studies, adult Sunday school, college or high school ministry or for personal individual use. We've designed two kits for your convenience: The Complete Study Kit provides all the needed material for small group settings and the Leader Pack provides the needed tools for personal, independent use. You just order additional participant guides for each additional group member.
The Four Views of the End Times Complete Kit includes:
- DVD with 6 teaching sessions, as well as optional Q&A sessions
- One printed participant guide (additional participant guides needed for each participant in study)
- One printed leader guide
- One Four Views of the End Times pamphlet with side-by-side comparisons of each view
- CD-ROM with optional PowerPoint® presentation, and PDF files for posters, fliers, handouts and bulletin inserts for promotion as well as a PDF of the leader guide
What Will My Group Get Out of This Study?
By the end of the six-session study, the participants will have a good knowledge of the biblical terms and passages regarding the Second Coming of Christ. They will understand the basics of each of the four views. They will understand these key teachings
- Jesus will come again for those who love him, just as he promised.
- Jesus calls his followers to be ready all the time.
- No one knows the day or the hour he will return.
