Hope
My study of end-time prophecy began as a study on what the bible says about hope.
Hope is the anticipation that good things are going to happen and it produces joy, peace, perseverance and many other positive qualities. It is the opposite of dread, which is the anticipation that bad things are going to happen. Dread produces fear, anxiety, depression, and various other negative effects.
So if you want hope, you need to gain a confidence that things are going to turn out well in the future. As a Christian, there is no more reliable guide to the future than what the bible says about it, so hope and biblical prophecy go hand in hand.
I have only recently published this eBook on hope, but back in 2015 it was my attempt to answer some of the questions I grappled with, and the conclusions I came to about hope. Subsequently, it provided the motivation for me to embark on a deeper study of biblical prophecy, and in the process to write The End Time Bible Commentary.
