The Watchman's Handbook For The Last Seven Years On Earth

Book excerpt: Dear reader, Over the years, I have spent considerable time studying the language and the manuscripts of the New Testament. I also have been blessed with multiple opportunities to teach adult Sunday school. The one subject that was constantly in demand was the Lord's return. Adult believers have an insatiable appetite for an understanding of how this world age will end and any information about our Lord's return. The Bible books that we mostly studied were the book written by Daniel the prophet and the Apostle John's book called Revelation. One of my philosophies regarding the scriptures is that we must allow the scriptures to speak. We often come to the Bible with preconceived ideas and try to force the scriptures to say what we think they should say. This is unacceptable! The Watchman's Handbook was written after years of personal study and prayerful reflection for greater spiritual understanding. May the words of the handbook stir your heart and help you to gain a closer relationship with our loving God. When I was about five years old, my mother told me, "Someday, God is coming back. When He comes, He is going to take us up into the air to meet Him in the sky." Wow! That was quite a declaration to a small child. When I was out of doors, I would look up into the sky and think to myself, When is God coming back for us? I am almost seventy years old and I am still looking up. I hope you are watching for our Lord's return as well. Your old friend in Christ, Jack Binner
