Come, Lord Jesus
Meditations on the Second Coming of Christ
Descrizione del libro
Bestselling Author John Piper Examines End-Times Theology and Scripture's Command to Love the Second Coming of Christ
Many people are curious about the second coming of Christ—what it will be like, when it will happen, and what signs will come first. In his latest book,
Come, Lord Jesus, John Piper addresses all these issues, but stresses that those who
love the second coming of Christ will receive a crown of righteousness (2 Timothy 4:6–8).
Piper examines key biblical texts around the second coming while encouraging readers toward a Spirit-awakened affection for Jesus's return. He also explores important questions such as,
Could Jesus come at any moment, or must certain events happen first?;
What does it mean to "Watch, for you know neither the day nor the hour"?; and
What should we be doing when he comes? With a special focus on the teachings of Jesus, Paul, and Peter,
Come, Lord Jesus portrays not only the glory of the revealed Savior, but also the glorification of the resurrected saints.
Essential, Christ-Exalting Eschatology: Piper guides Christians to examine whether they long for the appearing of Christ, and what this event will mean for Christians, non-Christians, and for Christ himselfCareful Exegesis: Piper pays close and precise attention to the words of Scripture, especially with a view to showing how Jesus and Paul were of one mind about the second coming Practical: The final 5 chapters are devoted to how Christians should live in this age between the first and second appearing of ChristWritten by Bestselling Author John Piper: Author of
