Daniel: The Key to Prophetic Revelation
By John Walvoord
Widely acknowledged as a landmark work on the book of Daniel
This is a detailed, systematic
analysis of the Book of Daniel with emphasis on investigating and refuting
non-biblical views.
Daniel: The Key to Prophetic Revelation is a
companion to
The
Revelation of Jesus Christ. It goes beyond a mere presentation of the
author's interpretation
of Old Testament prophecy. It quotes Bible scholars from different theological
perspectives to help you discover the meaning of the Scriptures cited. The
book includes:
- Difficult to interpret phrases
- Apocryphal additions
- Major
textual difficulties
- Use of Persian and Greek words
- Historical background
of Bible events
- Past and future fulfillments of specific prophecies
Though
contemporary analysis and explanation, this Walvoord masterpiece emphasizes
the value and genuineness of Daniel and his prophecies in the light of
modern biblical and archaeological evidence.

The Revelation
of Jesus Christ
By John Walvoord
A verse-by-verse study of one of the most complex books in the Bible.
Developed from years
of teaching, dedicated study, and sound evangelical scholarship, this
is a sane and sensible commentary on the book of Revelation.
No other New Testament
book evokes the same fascination, produces wider divergence of interpretation,
and is less understood than the book of the Revelation. The Bible was
intended to be understood, the author maintains, and Revelation is
no exception. Here then is a book for those who have been puzzled by
the seals, trumpets, woes, plagues, and vials, for those who do not
understand who the beast, the false prophet, and the great red dragon
represent. There is also excellent analysis for those who want
to know the meaning for our day of the letters to the seven churches.
Walvoord recognizes
Revelation's symbolic features, but points out that much of it can be interpreted literally. He defends the premillennial position, but at crucial points considers other views - the allegorical and historical, and the amillennial and postmillennial approaches.
With more than 200,000
copies in print,
The
Revelation of Jesus Christ has earned its place as a highly-regarded
exposition and approach to the book of Revelation from a dispensational
viewpoint.
In comparing
The
Revelation of Jesus Christ to Ryrie's
Revelation, you will find the Ryrie work to be a competent and concise primary resource for understanding and teaching. The more-detailed presentation of The
Revelation
of Jesus Christ will expand your exegetical knowledge of Revelation's themes, prophesies and related doctrinal positions.

Jesus Christ Our Lord
By John Walvoord
Contemporary in analysis and defense of orthodox Christology in the face of modern liberalism
Of the life and work of Jesus, the apostle John said, "Even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written" (John 21:25). Acknowledging the size of the task, as well as its importance, John Walvoord has written this systematic presentation of the Person and work of Christ from eternity past to eternity future.
Beginning with an
analysis of modern trends in the study of Christology, Dr. Walvoord
shows that "contemporary Christology has in many respects confused rather than clarified the extended revelation of the Word of God."
Analyzing the Old
Testament, he shows Christ in history, typology, and prophecy. Then,
in the New Testament, he examines the life and work of the incarnate
Christ, including the doctrines of atonement, redemption, propitiation,
and reconciliation. This add-on will complement your other Walvoord
content with an examination of the present and future work of Christ
and the completion of His Kingdom.

First & Second Thessalonians
By Charles Ryrie
A powerful verse-by-verse commentary on the Apostle Paul's letters to the Thessalonians
From the author's
introduction:
"Every once in a while a new book will appear on the market with a title something like this:
How
I've Changed My Mind. The various chapters then detail the ways in which the author's thinking has changed (often about important doctrines) throughout his lifetime. The apostle Paul would never have written such a book. Here's why we can be certain of that.
Although among the
earliest of Paul's letters (only Galatians is earlier), 1 and 2 Thessalonians in no way exhibit undeveloped or immature thinking. Paul had been a Christian for seventeen or eighteen years by the time he wrote 1 Thessalonians. His theology was fully developed in his mind and tested in his ministry before he wrote these letters to the Thessalonians.
These epistles are
like finely cut gems. They reflect the depths of theological thought,
especially in the area of future things. They mirror the pattern of
teaching that the apostle used with new Gentile converts.

Balancing the Christian Life
By Charles Ryrie
Secrets to blending your relationship with God into all areas of your life
Genuine and wholesome spirituality is the goal of all Christian living.What sounds simple, Ryrie warns is at risk from "an unbalanced application of the doctrines related to spirituality resulting in an unbalanced Christian life." The answer to preventing unbalance is to know how to study the Bible in such a way as to let it "be the guide and test for all our experiences in the spiritual life...and if any experience fails to pass the test, it must be discarded." In this foundational work for all believers, Ryrie examines key issues of spirituality, including sanctification, temptation, routine faithfulness and use of spiritual gifts
