Hope for This World and the Next Written by Herman Bavinck, Editor John Bolt, Translator John Vriend On the threshold of the twenty-first century, Western society is obsessed with near-death experiences and questions about life after death. At the same time, the Christian church is challenged by a plethora of sermons, articles, and books on biblical prophesy, Armageddon, the millennium, the rapture, the second coming, and the final judgment. In the midst of this eschatological confusion, the theology of Herman Bavinck has made a timely appearance in English to offer sound exegetical guidance. This book wrestles through Scripture passages on death and the intermediate state, judgment, the identity of Israel, universalism, and the final renewal of all things. Though written and first published as the eschatological section of “Gereformeerde Dogmatiek” one hundred years, this work “is biblically and confessionally faithful, pastorally sensitive, challenging, and still relevant.” Paperback, 208 pages, Bibliography, notes, index.
