The Significance of Prophecy. What does "prophet" mean in the Word of God? What
is the extent of prophecy in the Old and New Testaments? Major Themes of Prophecy. There
are 13 or 14 major areas upon which the light of the prophetic word falls. Hebraic
Prophecy. Those predictions beginning in Genesis through to the New Testament concerning
the history and ultimate destiny of the Hebrew People are called Hebraic prophecies. Messianic
Prophecy. The prophecies about the coming of the Lord Jesus are by far the most important
in all literature. Prophecies in Daniel. The book of Daniel is the only panoramic survey
of the great empires of the world down to the end of the age. It has chronological prophecy
indicating the coming of the Lord. Prophecies of Christ. Jesus talked prophetically
concerning himself, the church, the Jews and the fall of Jerusalem, the course of the
age, the end of the age, and of judgment to come. The Olivet Discourse. On the Mount of
Olives during Holy Week Jesus delivered His last pronouncement to the public in general. It
is recorded in Matthew 24-25, Mark 13 and Luke 21. In this last discourse Jesus prophesies
on the time before, during and after the Tribulation. The Resurrection Chapter. I Corinthians
15 talks about the Resurrection. Is there certainty in the resurrection of Jesus? What is
its importance? The Anti-Christ. Who is this Anti-Christ, the supreme enemy of God? What
will be his work? What are his characteristics? Who are the two beasts that come against
God? The Book of Revelation. We need this final book of triumph and victory. It is a book
of conflict, of light over darkness, between the powers of evil, Satan, and Hell against
the power of the Lord Jesus Christ.
