If you are new to end times Prophecy, how do you understand the complex teachings of Bible Prophecy?
Where do you begin? You begin here on “Understanding end times Prophecy.”
One third of the Bible’s message is prophetic. There are 66 books of the Bible, 39 in the Old Testament of which consists 5 books in the Pentateuch,12 Historical books,5 Poetic, and 17 Prophetic divided into Major and Minor Prophets. The New Testament has 27 books which include historical books, Pauline Epistles, non pauline epistles and one Prophetic book. All Prophecy has been fulfilled except those pertaining to the earth’s final years i.e end times prophecy.
The chief books for end time Prophecy are the Revelation, the book of Daniel, Jesus’s end time predictions found in the gospels. Prophetic passages lie within the Major and Minor Prophets. Biblical books such as Genesis, the Psalms, Thessalonians and 2 Timothy have various verses that add to the major end times Prophetic books.
During Jesus’s ministry the people who followed Jesus questioned him about the end of time on earth. Jesus predicted the signs that will lead to His second coming. These lead to the start of the earth’s final years. In conclusion the study of end times prophecy is the study of the earth’s final seven years of Tribulation and the decades leading up to the fulfillment of what Jesus predicted for those years.

End Times Prophecy-False Teachings
There are many false teachings being taught in end times Prophecy concerning both the teachings themselves and how current events line with the Bible Prophecy’s forecasts.
One of the greatest reasons for the errors is the Bible Prophecy teacher’s analysis of the latest news and current events. They lack journalistic standards and mistakenly rely on news headlines or conspiracy theories. Conspiracy theories become the easy way out of the spending the hours it takes to effectively research world affairs and consult viable sources.
A good many Bible Prophecy experts who might be good theologians do not understand the world of news or how it is obtained. Some of these Bible Prophecy teachers even end up twisting Bible Prophecy to conform to the headlines, and do not provide any kind of accurate picture of current affairs and Bible Prophecy. They also have no knowledge of geopolitics.
Since false teachings are a major problem in the teachings of end times Prophecy and current events,I address the errors in my writings. I have devoted a page to the false teachers. Consequently, this is also why today’s Bible Prophecy experts are not taken seriously by anyone in the know. Most of all for this reason they and are not consulted like the prophets of the Old Testament or Magi of the New Testament.
This page is part of a series of pages of Main Bible Prophecy Topics.
Other subjects fall under these topics. For example under the Beast of Revelation falls World Government. On the Tribulation page you will find the Peace Treaty, which begins the Tribulation. The Abomination of Desolation begins the Great Tribulation. It falls under that category. This is set up so that you can easily navigate the key topics of end time Bible Prophecy.
