The End times is popular term used when referring to various
interpretations of the Book of Revelation and other prophetic parts
of the Bible, such as the Book of Daniel and various sayings of Jesus in the Gospels concerning the timing of Christ's Second
Coming and the establishment of his kingdom. There are various views concerning the order of events leading up to and
following the return of Jesus and the significance of these events.
The "end times" is thought to represent the specific time leading up to the
return of Christ. The end times will likely include the "birth pains" Jesus referred to in the Olivet Discourse and the seals,
trumpets and bowls of the book of Revelation. The end times will be a shorter time than the "Last Days" which include the
time from Christ's First Advent to the end of the 1,000 year reign of christ on earth.
The study of "end times", is known as eschatology (from the Greek eskhatos
meaning last things), is a subject that includes such topics as death and the afterlife, the Second
Coming of Christ, the Millennial Kingdom, the end of the world, resurrection of the dead,
Heaven and Hell, and new creation.

 God loves you. Personally. Powerfully. Passionately. Others have promised and failed. But God has promised and succeeded.
He loves you with an unfailing love. And His love--if you will let it--can fill you and leave you with a love worth giving.
Based on 1 Corinthians 13.
 Author Max Lucado proclaims the grace of God to be "the greatest discovery of my life." And he wants to share that
discovery by taking us on a journey through the mountaintop truths found in Paul's letter to the Romans. "Romans is the grandest
treatise on grace ever written. You'll find the air fresh and the view clear."
 Just Like Jesus: Learning to Have a Heart Like His. God loves you just the way you are, but He refuses to leave you there.
He wants you to be just like Jesus. Isn't that good news? You aren't stuck with today's personality. You are changeable...
 We applaud men for doing good things.
We enshrine God for doing great things. But what about a man who does God things? Next Door Savior takes a fresh look at Jesus,
irresistibly human yet undeniably divine.
 In this compelling quest for the Messiah, Max Lucado presents a poignant narrative that sheds new light on a story
readers thought they already knew by heart: the story of Christ's crucifixion.

Antiquities of the Jews. The War of the Jews. Against Apion. The Life. Discourse To The Greeks Concerning Hades
Fox
 HIS IS a book that will never die -- one of the great English classics. . . . Reprinted here in its most
complete form, it brings to life the days when "a noble army, men and boys, the matron and the maid," "climbed the steep ascent
of heaven, 'mid peril, toil, and pain."
"After the Bible itself, no book so profoundly
influenced early Protestant sentiment as the Book of Martyrs. Even in our time it is still a living force. It is more than
a record of persecution. It is an arsenal of controversy, a storehouse of romance, as well as a source of edification."
Sketches of Church History.
An in depth chronology of the
Church from AD 33 to the Reformation.
   OHN BUNYAN was born in 1628 at Elstow near Bedford, the son of a brazier. Between 1644 and 1647 he served in the Parliamentary
army; returning to Elstow to follow his father's trade, he underwent a deep spiritual crisis that lasted for several years.
In about 1653 he joined an independent church in Bedford and before long began to preach and to publish polemical and doctrinal
religious works. In 1660, following the Restoration, he was arrested and, on his refusal to stop preaching, was held in Bedford
gaol for the next twelve years. While in prison, he published several books, the most important being his spiritual autobiography,
Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners (1666), and also began to write The Pilgrim's Progress (1678). On his release from
prison in 1672 Bunyan became pastor of the Bedford congregation and the remaining years of his life were spent preaching and
writing. The best-known of his later works are The Life and Death of Mr. Badman (1680), The Holy War (1682) and the second
part of The Pilgrim's Progress (1684) He died in 1688 and was buried in Bunhill Fields.
Grace Abounding
Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners, written during this imprisonment,
is the spiritual autobiography of Bunyan, the traveling tinker who became the eminent preacher and author
The Pilgrim Progress
Bunyan wrote The Pilgrim's Progress, in two parts, of which the first
appeared at London in 1678, begun during his imprisonment in 1676; the second in 1684. An allegory of Christian's journey
from the City of Destruction to the Celestial City, it is written in a prose that unites biblical eloquence with the clarity
of common speech, and is the most successful allegory ever written. It is indeed commonly translated by Protestant missionaries
after the Bible. It is this read in all literary languages and is a worldclassic.
The Holy War
John Bunyan wrote this book sometime during the first six years of his incarceration in Bedford
Prison. It was first published six years before John Bunyan's death
The Life Of John Bunyan
The Life of John Bunyan, by Edmund Venables
Our earliest extensively preserved Latin
Christian author [140-230], who aligned himself around 207 with the "Montanist" Christian movement that was considered "heretical"
by the representatives of emerging mainstream Christianity

St. Augustine
-
The Confessions of St. Augustine -- The most popular work of the man who more than any other shaped western
civilization. The first 10 chapters constitute a spiritual autobiography and some spiritual and philosophical reflections;
the last three chapters are a reflection on the creation story of Genesis 1.
John Bunyan
Pilgrim's Progress -- A spiritual allegory. Of books written in English, one of the all-time
most popular.
G. K. Chesterton
Orthodoxy -- Chesterton's writing reminds me of C.S. Lewis, but a little more
colorful, a little more quirky. This book is an apology for the Christian world-view.
Jonathan Edwards
Religious Affections -- "What is the nature of true religion? . . . [What are] the distinguishing
notes of that virtue and holiness that is acceptable in the sight of God?" In this classic work by America's greatest theologian
and philosopher, Edwards considers the nature of revival and the genuine work of the Holy Spirit. Don't read this book if
you want to keep worshipping your idols.
George Fox
Autobiography of George Fox -- This is a fascinating journal of the exploits of the founder of the
Society of Friends (Quakers). It is also very illuminating about the political and religious state of seventeenth century
England -- for example, Fox lives through the commonwealth period, meets Cromwell, and prophesies his downfall after he treats
Quakers badly.
St. Ignatius of Loyola
St. John of the Cross
Dark Night of the Soul -- The writings of St. John of the Cross are unsurpassed for mystical
theology. The "dark night" is a must-read for anyone seriously concerned about growing spiritually.
Thomas à Kempis
The Imitation of Christ -- This book is said to have been published in more editions than any
other, apart from the Bible, with 6000 appearing by the turn of this century. This little devotional book is simply written
but immensely moving. Highly recommended.

Where Should
I Go to Church?
from Dose of Truth
There is no doubt that the desire of God in
His Word is that the church gather together corporately. The very definition of the word church (ekklesia) implies that we
assemble ourselves together. The word was used generally to mean, "A gathering of citizens called out from their homes into
some public place, an assembly"…
