Читать книгу The Kingdom - James T. Harman - Страница 3

Sir Isaac Newton, the great mathematician, scientist and Bible scholar made the following prediction about 300 years ago:

"About the time of the end, a body of men will be raised up who will turn their attention to the prophecies, and insist upon their literal interpretation, in the midst of much clamour and opposition." Sir Isaac Newton (1643-1727 AD)

There is no doubt in my mind that Jim Harman is one of these men that God would raise up at the time of the end. Sir Isaac Newton also made another prediction that the End of the World (i.e., Age) would take place around 2012. Of course, it is not the world that will end but the Church Age, and it appears that Newton may be very close to being accurate on this prediction, as well. It is also important to understand that Sir Isaac Newton was against date setting about the time of the end, but he made this prediction nevertheless.

I met Jim at a prophecy conference in Tampa, Florida 19 years ago and we have been friends and fellow students of the Bible ever since that time. He and I agree on a great deal of Bible doctrine, and we are both looking forward to the Return of the Lord.

There is another prophecy about the time of the end that was addressed by Jesus Christ, and this prophecy is located in the Olivet Discourse. It is as follows:

(Matt 24:45-47) “Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. Verily I say unto you, that he shall make him ruler over all his goods.”

The information in this book certainly falls in the category of strong meat, and it is my firm conviction that Jim Harman will be one of these faithful and wise servants that provides “meat in due season”.

Blaise Pascal, the famous French mathematician, physicist and religious philosopher made the following observation concerning Bible prophecies:

"The prophecies are to be unintelligible to the ungodly but intelligible to those who are properly instructed." Blaise Pascal (1623 - 1662 AD)

I also firmly believe that Jim Harman is one of those Bible students who is properly instructed in the prophecies of the Bible, thus making him a godly man. Jim is a devout student of the Word of God, and he is open and teachable in the truths of Scripture. This is an absolute necessity for anyone to understand Bible prophecies, and Jim certainly lives up to this observation made by Blaise Pascal.

I recommend this book to anyone seeking the truths of Scripture. Jim is able to take the deeper truths of the Bible and explain them in simple language that can be understood by anyone who is open and teachable in Bible doctrine.
