The Eschaton: a Biblical Interpretation of the End of the World

Arnold brings to the Biblical study of the end times his rationalistic and scientific approach. While this approach enhances, it in no way changes or attempts to correct Biblical text or its meaning. Arnold defines the Eschaton, the end of all things in Greek, as the composite of "signs of the end, the Lord's return, the judgment, and life eternal or damnation". He believes the Lord's use of the word "generation" based on the original Greek is 'an interval of time, an age'. This age of believers, Jesus teaches, will not pass away until all the signs of the end have taken place. By the doctrine of Predestination the end can not come until the last Christian on earth is born. He defines the last believers of this age as the "Omega Generation". As they are born, their family line will cease and when the last Christian of the Omega Generation is born, all family lines on earth will end. With these changes will come a dramatic decrease in global population as prophesied in Scripture. After reviewing what changes this will bring to the earth, he discusses the signs of the times which the secular world takes as pointers to the possible end of the world. He then takes us on a detailed description of the Biblical signs. These signs will be highly visible during the lives of the Omega Generation. Following the return of our Lord, Dr. Arnold describes the Judgment, the New Jerusalem and the Inferno. Other very unique concepts introduced by Arnold in The Eschaton include a discussion of the cleansing of the Cosmos by fire and the events that occur following our death. All those who hold the Bible to be Truth will find this book to be attention grabbing, exciting and a clear explanation and revelation of that truth.
