Many Christians think of end times prophecy as a gigantic, intimidating puzzle - difficult to piece together and impossible to figure out. But every puzzle can be solved if you approach it in the right way.

Paul Benware compares prophecy to a picture puzzle. Putting the edge pieces together first builds the "framework" that makes it easier to fit the other pieces in their place.

According to Benware, the framework for eschatology is the biblical covenants. He begins his comprehensive survey by explaining the major covenants. Then he discusses several different interpretations of end times prophecy.

Benware digs into the details of the Rapture, the Great Tribulation, the judgments and resurrections, and the millennial kingdom. But he also adds a unique, personal element to the study, answering questions as:

Why study Bible prophecy?
What difference does it make if I'm premillenial or amillenial?

If what the Bible says about the future puzzles you, Understanding End Times Prophecy will help you put together the pieces and see the big picture.
