What if heaven and earth were two worlds waiting to become one?
Many Christians dismiss the book of Revelation as an impossible allegorical fantasy or fear it as a bone-chilling peek at our impending doom. But what if the real message of the final book of the Bible is the unveiling of God's plan to bring final, cosmic redemption to His creation?
As you read this book, you will:
- Discover how the theme of new creation is interwoven in the entire biblical arc
- Expose common misconceptions about heaven, afterlife, and eternity
- Understand more fully the role of Jesus in his life, death, resurrection, and ascension
- Enrich your perspective of how life in the coming new world is described through ancient eyes
- Celebrate how salvation concludes with the most joyous wedding of all time
Plus, workbook questions and action steps with each chapter will help you personalize and apply key truths gleaned from this exploration of the Bible's powerful concluding book. From the moment of the original creation, God has been working all things toward the new creation. We are living in an exciting time between the old and the new, with Jesus' ascension ushering in the dawning of the end, which is only the new beginning.
The Dawn of the New Creation: Exploring the Christian Hope As Told by Revelation delivers a colorful picture of the hope that is to come, which will forever change your view of life, death, the future, and the Triune God who is making all things new.
"When people think of revelation, they often mistakenly think only of judgment and the destruction of the world. This book, The Dawn of the New Creation, captures the true essence, the new world, and reality God is preparing for his people. I recommend strongly not just reading but meditating on the themes uncovered in this excellent work. In actuality, we are citizens of heaven/the New Creation, and this will help us realize our wondrous present as well as our glorious future. Our lives will be changed, and we will see everything a lot more clearly as a result. It is exciting to see this extremely positive work on the Apocalypse come to light." --Grant R. Osborne, author of Revelation: Verse by Verse & The Hermeneutical Spiral
