    About this ebook

    All over the world, devout Christians are waiting with bated breath for the arrival of their Lord, Jesus Christ, on His long-promised return to earth. Patience is beginning to wear thin for some though, and understandably so, given the ever-multiplying "signs of the times" that have long seemed to indicate that the Day is close, very, very close.

    Many believe the Advent will unfold on that glorious day in strict accord with the traditional and generally-accepted church teachings of the Event: One day of days, the narrative goes, a strange and unusual commotion in the heavens will herald the long-awaited Advent, and whoever is seen by "every eye" triumphantly descending from above "with power and great glory", riding on a palanquin of clouds, accompanied by a multitude of exalted angels, amidst the large blast of a trumpet, will be none other than the Son of man. According to one version, He will be joined in mid-air by a mass flight of the saintly "elect" into the sky.

    It cannot be so easily forgotten, however, that at the First Coming, the Jews had their own expectations of the coming of their Messiah, based largely on a literal, clergy-inspired interpretation of Scripture, and lost out miserably when Jesus appeared according to His own very different set of interpretations of the very same prophecies.

    Could the Christians not be making a similar misjudgement as did the Jews of 2,000 years ago? This is what this book sets out to explore, and it does so relying on a copious array of references from both the Old and New Testaments—to broadly survey the deeper meaning of the life, mission and teachings of Jesus the Christ, and review the Old Testament prophecies that presaged His appearance in the Holy Land as the Messiah of the Jews. This provides a valuable context and reliable framework for what follows.

    The remaining part of the book delves into the inner mysteries and hidden meanings behind the promise of the Return, to uncover the truth of the Second Coming that has until now remained largely untold. The outcome may surprise some, but should find ready acceptance by the vast majority of fair-minded believers everywhere.

    And so what follows here, and what the book offers, is a new, largely unexpected set of ideas about the coming Advent for the urgent attention of sincere seekers of truth the world over.

      How to Spread the Gospel Like Wildfire

      Aug 19, 2019

      The Gospel spread like wildfire in the early church. For example, a single speech from Peter converted 3000 people (Acts 2:41), and after he gave a second speech, the number of believers totalled 5000 (Acts 4:4). In only a few decades, the Good News
