Stimulating - Insightful - Provocative A new look at both Biblical prophecy and human history Debate has raged for thousands of years over the applicability of the prophecies of Daniel and Revelation. Many in the present day Church believe that the time from the death of Jesus Christ until the present age is little mentioned in prophecy, including mention of the most powerful nation to ever exist on the face of the earth...the United States. Can this gap, commonly referred to as the "Church Age," really be defended when an interpretation of Daniel and Revelation is applied to the pages of modern human history? This book takes a fresh look at both Daniel and Revelation, beginning with a comprehensive outline of the themes contained in these prophecies. Holding tightly to the Hebrew and Greek meanings extracted from the study of "Interlinear texts," the author compares the messages revealed with a comprehensive examination of human history from the 18th Dynasty of Egypt until the present age. This book is a must read for those who want to better understand Daniel, Revelation and Church history. Author Bio: John Augustine Clauer.
