Daniel was a captive in Babylon. He served secular kings and by the power of God interpreted their dreams and visions, some of which revealed Israel's future. Daniel spent his entire life desiring to know what would happen to his people, the children of Israel. In response to his quest, God revealed much to Daniel through dreams and visions of his own. Prophecies and lessons in Daniel is a verse-by-verse commentary on the prophetic book of Daniel produced by the Lord's guidance during many years of prayerful study and developed from sermons and Bible lessons conducted no less than three times at Victory Baptist Church. It includes historical context and secular history identified to show prophecies in Daniel that have already been fulfilled. It also compares the prophecies in Daniel with relevant passages in both the Old and New Testaments including the Revelation of Jesus Christ.
The Millennial Kingdom is a comprehensive biblical and historical treatment of the doctrine of the millennium written for the pastor, students, scholar, or layperson. The three leading millennial views -- postmillennialism, amillennialism, and premillennialism -- are presented in the context of their history, their theology, and their biblical interpretation. Dr. Walvoord presents postmillennialism first and then discusses amillennialism. However, the subject of premillenialism forms the main body of the work. The author introduces premillennialism with a survey of its historical background in the Old and New Testaments and in the history of the church. Its theological setting and methods of interpretation are discussed. A presentation of the character of the millennium concludes the volume.

In the early twentieth century, a new, American scripture appeared on the scene. It was the product of a school of theological thinking known as Dispensationalism, which offered a striking new way of reading the Bible, one that focused attention squarely on the end-times. That scripture, The Scofield Reference Bible, would become the ur-text of American apocalyptic evangelicalism. But while the Scofield took hold in the United States, the belief system from which it emerged, Dispensationalism, was not primarily a homegrown American phenomenon. In The Americanization of the Apocalypse: Creating America's Own Bible Donald Harman Akenson examines the creation and spread of Dispensationalism. Th...
