The Magnitude of the Word

About the Book

For centuries, people have asked what the Bible teaches about the end of the world.  John W. Blake created a work that allows factual signs of the Bible to form by themselves the direction and content of each subject, thus allowing the reader to see what the Bible itself teaches.

The Magnitude of the Word helps the reader to explore what the Bible says about the end of the world and their fate.  It identifies the Two Witnesses unequivocally.  In the Old and New Testament, Satan’s activities are exposed.  It also explains the reasons for the Great Tribulation, assures comfort for those within it and also describes the beast, its mark, and the Antichrist with the beast’s image.  The Day of the Lord is clarified by revealing not only the Second Coming of Christ but the thousand years’ wrath of God upon the lost, the Battle of Armageddon and the final judgment.  This  book also investigates biblical passages and scrutiny of Daniel’s symbolic seventieth week to help augment the range and tone of the information examined.
