Nowhere in the Bible does the Lord promise us this, say Michael Brown and Craig Keener, two leading, acclaimed Bible scholars. In fact, they say, Jesus \u003ci\u003epromises\u003c\/i\u003e us tribulation in this world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYet this is no reason to fear. In this fascinating, accessible, and personal book, Brown and Keener walk you through what the Bible \u003ci\u003ereally\u003c\/i\u003e says about the rapture, the tribulation, and the end times. What they find will leave you full of hope. God's wrath is not poured out on His people, and He will shield us from it--as he shielded Israel in Egypt during the ten plagues. So instead of taking comfort in what God hasn't promised, take comfort in the words of Jesus: He has overcome the world, and we live in his victory.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56294971769205,"sku":"9780800799168","price":13.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780800799168_3201ce0c-a9d5-4873-b1a3-2456ca1c318f.jpg?v=1786016323"},{"product_id":"9780801064234","title":"Answering Jewish Objections to Jesus","description":"\"The Torah doesn't speak of Jesus at all!\" \"You're completely misinterpreting Isaiah!\" \"This verse has absolutely nothing to do with your Jesus! It's not even a messianic prophecy!\" \"As for the real messianic prophecies, Jesus fulfilled none of them.\"\t\t\u003cbr\u003e\tThese are some objections raised by Jews regarding Jesus as the Messiah. Using the Hebrew Bible, rabbinic texts, and the New Testament, Dr. Michael Brown provides thorough answers to nearly forty such objections.

Answers that are fair. Answers that are detailed. And above all, answers that respond to actual objections. In the first of three volumes of Answering Jewish Objections to Jesus, Michael Brown provides defensible answers. He addresses the same arguments that arise in his dialogue and debate with friends, rabbis, and anti-missionaries. Some objections include:  * \"I was born a Jew and I will die a Jew.\" * \"I won't betray my ancestors.\" * \"If Jesus is the Jewish Messiah, why isn't there peace on earth?\" * \"Christians have always hated and persecuted the Jewish people!\"  Brown knows all about such objections. At age sixteen, he discovered Jesus was the Jewish Messiah, and it changed his life. Called to defend his new faith, Brown went on to master Hebrew, earning his Ph.D. in Semitic languages. In the past decades he has established himself as a leading Jewish Christian apologist.  Brown brings together his learning and his love for his people to answer thirty-five commonly heard objections. He provides believers and seekers alike with honest, spiritually focused answers, thoroughly documented with notes.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56294977077621,"sku":"9780801060632","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780801060632_8a14a2b1-0abb-43eb-9653-e7c459adb88a.jpg?v=1786015755"},{"product_id":"9780801063343","title":"Answering Jewish Objections to Jesus","description":"In this second of three volumes of Answering Jewish Objections to Jesus, Brown takes up twenty-eight of the most weighty objections raised against Jesus. These are real questions and real answers, formed by years of dialogue with rabbis and religious Jews. Some objections include:  * Jews don't believe in the Trinity. We believe in one God, not three.  * God doesn't have a son. * The Christian concept of salvation is contrary to the Hebrew Bible and Jewish tradition. Jews don't need saving. * Jews don't believe in a suffering Messiah.  Brown shows how New Testament teaching on the nature of God and the divinity of the Messiah is in harmony with the Hebrew Scriptures, how blood sacrifices joined with repentance were the heart and soul of the Torah's system of atonement, and how Yeshua fulfilled a lofty Jewish concept, bringing atonement to the world through his death.  As with Brown's earlier volume, this rich resource comes thoroughly referenced with notes and includes a glossary, subject index, and index of Scripture and other ancient writings. It is a necessity for anyone involved in Jewish-Christian dialogue or apologetics.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56294978093429,"sku":"9780801063343","price":20.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780801063343_eeb6a5c3-79b9-40e8-bd2a-9ccee96a76c8.jpg?v=1786015757"},{"product_id":"9781629984551","title":"Authentic Fire","description":"In response to Pastor John MacArthur's call for a \"collective war,\" against charismatics, Dr. Michael Brown has called for unity in Jesus based on a return to the truth of the Scriptures in the fullness of the Spirit. \u003cp\u003eAs a charismatic biblical scholar and theologian, Dr. Brown responds to Pastor MacArthur's charges, making a biblical case for the continuation of the New Testament gifts of the Spirit and demonstrating the unique contribution to missions, theology, and worship made by the charismatic Church worldwide.
