With Christmas week finally upon us (or is that “suddenly upon us”?), I’d like to suggest a way to help you to focus on the spiritual aspects of the season. My book, A Concise Guide to Bible Prophecy, contains seven brief chapters on prophecies related to Advent that have greatly encouraged me as I have reflected upon their truths. I hope to read and discuss them with my family this week.
Jesus—First Advent
31. The Virgin Birth of God
32. The Star
33: Born in Bethlehem
34. Simeon and Anna
35. Kings Will Bring Him Gifts
36. Slaughter of the Innocents
37. Called Out of Egypt
It’s not too late for you to pick up a copy of A Concise Guide to Bible Prophecy (paperback or e-book) and share it with your family and loved ones this Christmas!
