| Description: |
After the September 11, 2001, attacks on New York and Washington, by terrorists who openly admit to advocating the murder of innocent civilians and being motivated by their Islamic beliefs, the religion of Islam has become the object of much attention.
Islam used to receive considerable attention from Protestant theologians who studied eschatology. These theologians held to the view known as "Historicism," and this was the classic (or historic) Protestant and Reformed interpretation of prophecy (which had much to say about Islam in the Book of Revelation).
Attesting to this, Historicism is found in all the major Protestant and Reformed creeds, confessions, and covenants (in their unedited form, from the time of the Reformation), as well as among the individual writings of the best Reformers.
Moreover, many Reformers considered the Papacy "the great Western Antichrist," and Islam "the great Eastern Antichrist."
Hopefully this renewed attention on Islam will also lead to renewed attention on truly Biblical interpretation of prophecy.
This book by the Dr. F.N. Lee will be a significant help to Christians wanting to view eschatology Biblically, just as all the major Reformers did.
Also see Reformation CDs 13-18, at the web link above, for more on Islam in Bible prophecy.
RBCDs 13 & 14 focus on Historicism and RBCDs 15-18 provide information "Against the Papacy (Roman Catholicism), the Jesuits, Islam, Conspiracies, Secret Societies, etc." |
