Synopsis

In this groundbreaking new book by Gordon and Sandra Lawrence, the complex mysteries of Revelation are divided into SEVEN BASIC STAGES in an attempt to provide the reader with a comprehensive view of past history and future prophecy. It is the author’s hope to paint a realistic picture of the second coming of Christ, and to prepare the next generation of Christians for inevitable persecution and unprecedented global crisis. Section 1, Chapters 1-4 provide critical background information: Israel, The Apple of God’s eye; The Spirit of Amalek; Daniel, Man of Prophecy; The Olivet Discourse; Section 2, Chapters 1-7 outline the book of Revelation as follows: The Beginning of Birth Pangs; The Tribulation; Gathering His Church; The Wrath of God Begins; The Day of Atonement; The Millennium; The New Jerusalem; Lawrence addresses what he calls ‘the great theological debate of the 21st century’: the issue of the Pre-Tribulation Rapture vs the Pre-Wrath rapture of the Church. The Day of Atonement chapter provides unique scriptural insight called: The Journey of the Mighty Angel. The author describes this book as: expositional, encyclopedic and editorial. The reader will delight, perhaps for the first time, in learning the systematic progression of events that break the code of end-time mystery. Be prepared to learn new truth from the pages of scripture. A great tool for small group study!

Review

Not many books on Revelation present what I believe to be the best interpretation of a historic premillennial view. This book is as good as it gets. My friend Gordon Lawrence has done splendid work on this fine commentary, and I heartily commend it.” James Merritt, Ph.D Pastor of Cross Pointe Church and International Television host of
“Touching Lives”

As a Bible teacher for 40 years, I have taught the Pre-Trib interpretation of Revelation many times. My understanding of the rapture was radically changed when I was introduced to Gordon’s book, “Silence in Heaven.” This book is a must read for all Bible teachers.” David Eakin, Ed.D Educator, author of “The Jethro Principle” and currently
