The Redemption of the Body in Romans 8
Romans chapter 8 is an interesting chapter, particularly because of the emphasis on the work of Spirit in relation to the body. At work in this chapter is the prophecy of Joel 2:28-32, which was poured out in the last days.
The promise of the Spirit, prophesied also in Ezekiel 36 and 37, is directly related to the restoration of the land to Israel to the ancient nation of Israel in the time of Christ. Chapter 37, shows us the role of the Spirit in connection with resurrection in the scene of the dry ...

The Beginning of the World - Christian Eschatology: We're often asked, what is left for us if Christ has come? Where is our hope? Is this all we get? How much more ungrateful, simplistic and narrow a viewpoint can this be? That's not to say the questions are not honest, but they do lack just bit of depth in thought.

Those who see our times as the last days often appeal to the words of Christ in which he predicted famine and pestilence. These words are found in Matthew. John Hagee as Dispensationalists are fond of doing, believe that the newspaper headlines and current events unveil the road map of the end.
However, we show that Hagee's 10 Road Signs to Armageddon End Times Lead to the Past. As in the previous seven signs we noted before, this sign of famines and pestilences also belongs to Israel's past history. Christ's words key us in to the fulfillment.
“And you will hear of ...
