JOHN COBB Teaching Ministry

John J Cobb explores eschatology in Lord, When? A Biblical Perspective of the Second Coming. The author touches on subjects relating to the Seventh Trumpet, signs of the times and our expectations, the antichrist, and the persecution that will follow all who believe in Jesus Christ. He emphasizes the need to rely on the information the Holy Spirit illuminates and illustrates what his readers can expect as the end of times draws near. The author reveals a key book of the Bible that helps with the conception of biblical philosophy and clues God left about Jesus's return. Cobb provides readers with the information they need to recognize the period before Christ's return and elaborates on the seventy weeks of Daniel and the last seven years of the world.

The book supports that author John J Cobb is knowledgeable in biblical scripture and an expert in eschatology. He uses the evidence in scripture to show his readers what they can expect when the end of times begins and the rapture happens. Many people claim the Christian rapture will happen soon, and they see the confirmation of it in the world around them. Cobb's text challenges their assertions with biblical proof and seeks to prepare his readers for the antichrist and rapture. His in-depth look into common questions Christians ask their spiritual leaders reflects the deep understanding of an ordained Baptist minister and a former contributor to the National Baptist Convention USA Inc. Sunday School Publishing Board. If you are looking for a sound comprehension of the second coming of Christ or if you study theology, Lord, When? is a must-read selection!

Cobb wrote From Death to Life to appeal to all readers, and he seeks to help people who want to learn more about God. He presents them with the fundamental doctrines of Christianity. The author details God's holiness and sovereignty, outlines sin and sin force, discusses foreknowledge and predestination, touches on faith and hope, highlights the Holy Spirit and the word of God in salvation, and the process of sanctification. Cobb provides questions at the end of each chapter to emphasize certain points in the text and allow readers a place to reflect on them.

Many Christians can't define their religion, but John J. Cobb uses three decades of scriptural study to present the truths as he knows them and discusses key doctrines that are essential to a Christian. His goal is to inform readers so they may search the scriptures for truth and understand God more clearly. The author's graphics were direct and clarified his key points. I was especially interested in how influence plays a part in the introduction of sin, the way "sin force" entered the world, and Cobb's in-depth explanation of how sin separated Adam from God and how you may be "born again." From Death to Life is motivational and uplifting, providing moments of enlightenment as readers gain a deeper understanding of certain biblical concepts.
