Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

A person untaught in the Old Testament and unaware of even a few important chapters in the New Testament (i.e., Matthew 24, Mark 13, Luke 21, etc.) will struggle mightily. However, by using the grid this book provides, the interpreter s understanding will be greatly enhanced. The reason is that the grid is derived from the book of Revelation itself, and not from any outside interpretive model or prejudice.

Greg Uttinger s book is refreshing for its brevity; it does not confuse the reader in the minutia of exposition. It demystifies Revelation by focusing the reader on the big picture. I do not agree with all of what the author says, but I would nevertheless encourage anyone to read it. Here is why. There are several views of Revelation that I believe are faithful to its message. Partial preterits, like Uttinger, believe much of the book was fulfilled by A.D. 70. Historicists believe the book represents the battle between Christ and Satan in the entire inter-advent period described sequentially. I follow the idealist view which also sees it as a description of the entire inter-advent period, though not viewed sequentially. All these positions are in agreement in seeing Jesus Christ as presently the prince of the kings of the earth (1:4). The blessing on those who read, hear, and keep the message of Revelation (1:3) was not referring to the academic or technical interpretation of the details of the book, but to its core message that we serve the risen, victorious Lord of time and eternity. Uttinger s book is faithful to that Revelation of Jesus Christ (1:1).

Reseña del editor:

A person untaught in the Old Testament and unaware of even a few important chapters in the New Testament (i.e., Matthew 24, Mark 13, Luke 21, etc.) will struggle mightily with the Book of Revelation. However, by using the grid this book provides, the interpreter’s understanding will be greatly enhanced. The reason is that the grid is derived from the Book of Revelation itself, and not from any outside interpretive model or prejudice.

George Santayana once said that brevity is “almost a condition of being inspired.” Brevity may have a stronger punch than a literary tome. Before we can have the last word, we must first hear the first word. This little book is that first word. This means it can be safely placed into the hands of any Christian, regardless of age or spiritual maturity. It gives each Christian a jump-start, significantly reducing the likelihood of a reading stall. The Book of Revelation is indeed a revelation, a revelation for all of God’s people. A Whole New World shows how this is true.
