The Kingdom has Come

The Kingdom Has Come

What if the "end times" already began — and Jesus's prophecies about His coming have already, in large part, been fulfilled? In The Kingdom Has Come, Alan Braun makes the case that Jesus's warnings in Matthew 24 and the judgment scenes of Revelation found their fulfillment in AD 70, when Jerusalem and its temple fell to Rome — an event Christ Himself called His "coming in judgment." This is not the end of the story, though: Alan carefully preserves what Scripture still holds out ahead — a literal future return, a bodily resurrection, and a final judgment still to come.

Written for the everyday reader rather than the academic, the book walks through Daniel's visions, the Olivet Discourse, and the book of Revelation with historical detail (including the fall of Jerusalem as recorded by Josephus), numerous illustrations, and a substantial question-and-answer appendix addressing common objections — from the rapture to the millennium to what happened to Israel. Alan holds his conclusions with conviction, while distinguishing clearly between what Scripture states plainly and what remains, by his own admission, a matter of careful interpretation.

A serious but accessible introduction to partial preterism — for readers who want to see how much of Bible prophecy has already begun to unfold.
