"For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy."
The intent of this publication is to give a consecutive chronology and scope of all prophetic events. It is not an exposition but rather the use of selected Scriptures to tell the story. The compiler of the Scriptural quotations has added side notes which are intended to guide the reader as to sequence. This book can be used as a companion to the Time Chart.
The panorama of prophetic scenes from both the Old and New Testaments sets forth the wisdom, knowledge, holiness, righteousness, patience, grace, mercy, and love of God.
At the close of six thousand years of man's history, there will be a visitation on the earth and a judgment of it in which man will be called upon to bow to God or be subject to one or more of many judgments. The earth will be that part of the world which will have had a testimony from God, found within the perimeter of the four monarchies described in the second chapter of the book of Daniel.
Directions spoken of in the prophecies are usually as from Jerusalem, the center of God's government in the earth. Geography and location of the nations involved are as found at the time of the writing of the prophecy.
