To Christians who sometimes have doubts:
Have you ever heard an exposition on the kingdom of God from the pulpit? Have you ever considered and unearthed for yourself the history, culture, and events of the first-century Christians? Is "only God knows" an answer to many of your questions?
All biblical prophecy is fulfilled. This is the position of Preterism, from the Latin "praeter," a prefix denoting that something is 'past' or 'beyond'. Almost since the days of Christ, eschatology has been a subject of confusion and anxiety among Christians. Christians have seldom viewed the 'time of the end' from its original viewpoint: that of ancient Judaism. Instead, they derive their last-days theories from Christian perspectives. As a result, theory and conjecture loom large in Christianity.
Paul Gentry is not a theologian schooled in divinity. He has never held a high ranking in any church denomination. He has no pecuniary interest or personal agenda in arranging his notes in book form. He simply wishes to convey the gleanings of his own studies to anyone who might be curious.
Please read these notes with an open mind. Challenge them. Satisfy yourself that you have better reasons for unsettled theories and the decline of church attendance. Send him a scathing review if you wish. All Gentry hopes is to inspire readers to ponder the truth of God's Word. "A Two-Edged Sword" will challenge you to divest yourself of devotion and tradition - just this once - and study scripture and history at arm's length, with no presuppositions or assumptions.
