| | | Eschatology, Where do I start? (resources)
Where do I start? I dont know anything concerning Eschatology. Except from the little I've seen from the Left Behind series. I dont really have the money right now to buy any books. I rather start off by reading online. Any good, balanced, websites that compare all the views? Ill even read the bias ones as well.

to start with there is a good Chart by Nate Wilson just surch his name and Comparison Of Four Eschatological Positions and you should find it. Also the book The Meaning of the Millennium: Four Views by InterVarsity Press, is a good starting point as far as books go.

For the Post-Mill view I'd start with Ken Gentry's sermons on Sermon Audio here. I think he is the most clear Post-Mill speaker currently.

It is God that multiplies our sorrows.... God, as a righteous Judge, does it, which ought to silence us under all our sorrows; as many as they are, we have deserved them all, and more: nay, God, as a tender Father, does it for our necessary correction, that we may be humbled for sin, and weaned from the world by all our sorrows; and the good we get by them, with the comfort we have under them, will abundantly balance our sorrows, how greatly soever they are multiplied. - Matthew Henry |

Start here:
Matt 24,25
1 Cor 15
2 Pet 3
When you have these as your foundation, then move on to other stuff.

Julio,
If you PM me an email address, I can send you a ZIP file of PowerPoints I did for a Sunday School on the End Times in 2001.

On Sermon Audio, do a search for Gary DeMarr. Most of his are from conferences and I think they are great. And free is not bad either.

If you think I'm a Hyper-Calvinist, God planned that thought before the foundation of the Earth. If you try to tell me that God only planned some things and not all things, then your problem is with God not me.
