From the Back Cover

What does the future have in store for us?

In the search to know what is to come, many turn to the Bible's prophets and prophecies for answers. Who were these people who supposedly could predict the future? Have their prophecies come true?

This accessible guidebook will help you understand 60 crucial Bible prophecies and avoid common misinterpretations. Without all the hype, Stan Guthrie clearly and concisely explains what each prophecy meant to those who first received it. Then he summarizes what it means for our understanding of God, ourselves, and the future, and provides resources for further individual or group study.


"Nothing is more exciting--or more important--than the promises and prophecies of Scripture. Nothing brings greater hope. Nothing brings greater clarity to our lives. I thank the Lord, and my good friend Stan, for this encouraging and important piece of work."--Luis Palau, world evangelist; author of Out of the Desert . . . Into the Life God Fully Intended

"Stan Guthrie is a cogent thinker and graceful writer I love to read. While A Concise Guide to Bible Prophecy happens to cover an area of personal interest for me, Stan can draw me into any subject simply by the way he examines and explains it. Every Guthrie book is a treat."--Jerry B. Jenkins, novelist and biographer; owner of Christian Writers Guild

"Bible prophecy is a subject that's often been smothered by fantasy, confusion, and outright distortion. Stan Guthrie addresses it with lucidity, humility, and a deep love for God's Word."--John Wilson, editor, Books & Culture
