This book lays out the basic biblical principles upon which a child of God may rest his hope in any millennium. He then shows how to apply these principles to current situations, preparing you for the future by helping you understand what God teaches in His Word, by showing you how to use that truth to meet new and different circumstances, and by encouraging you rightly to place your hope in the Word of the living God.
