預言就是已發生的事
By 李錦彬內容簡介：聖經記載有關耶穌基督有一天會降臨在橄欖山、信徒將會被提等等，以及數之不盡的預言，究竟發生了沒有？答案是肯定發生了。不然的話，約翰怎能把許多有關末世的情況，都詳細記下來呢？筆者用了二、三十年的時間，發掘了不少在舊約有關耶穌基督的預言，到了新約如何應驗在耶穌身上，箇中曲折離奇、引人入勝，使讀者能夠對耶穌有煥然一新的認識，以致對祂產生一種信而順服的信仰生活。根據啟示錄一章2節：「約翰便將神的道，和耶穌基督的見證，凡自己所看見的，都證明出來。」這一節聖經指出，約翰是把「凡自己所看見的」，都證明出來。既然稱這是「見證」，又是約翰所「看見」，那麼必定是已經發生了！這好比你錯過了某一套電視劇集的大結局，但你的配偶已經預先看了，所以劇集的大結局對你來說是未知之數，但對於你的配偶來說，卻是已經知道、已發生了的事實。 本書特點：預言來確立信徒的信心 - 筆者把耶穌基督的預言整合起來，讓大家可以嘗試回到那個時代，去了解那些預言如何準確地在新約應驗出來，箇中的曲折離奇必定令你驚訝萬分。有說服力的傳福音工具 - 對於非信徒來說，這本書好像偵探小說一樣，能夠抽絲剝繭，把福音的曲折離奇，具體呈獻在人的眼前 目錄：一 沒法操控的預言二 福音的發源地三 最詳而盡的預言四 沒有一塊石頭留在石頭上五 最富戲劇性的預言六 險些兒破壞了救恩的計畫七 彼得三次不認主的預言八 沒有腳會走的三十塊錢九 主受欺壓時不開口十 主帶著王的名號而死十一 令人費解的預言十二 主的骨頭一根也不可折斷十三 置身其中的預言十四 牽涉在耶穌預言最多的人十五 十架拼圖十六 與財主同葬十七 主復活的預言
