LONGWOOD, FL-What does God expect you to know and do about the future? What is your destiny and hope as a Christian? What is your relationship to the biblical "Day of the Lord"? What is God doing today with those identified in Scripture as "the Gentiles"? Why is He doing it? Up and Away: The Mystery, the Lord's Day, and the Predestination of the One New Man (paperback, 978-1-60477-100-8) addresses these questions and more through an examination of the doctrinal issues set forth in the apostle Paul's epistles to the Thessalonians.
Author and experienced Bible teacher David Winston Busch reveals what Scripture has to say about God's intentions for His people and for the end of time. With a clear, biblical understanding of God's plan for the future, Christians can fully comprehend just how they are and are not to view the various circumstances around them. They don't have to be confused by every new idea. As the current rumblings in the Middle East produce questions about end times, prophecy, the Day of the Lord, and especially the various views of the rapture (pre-trib, mid-trib, post-trib, no trib), Christians must boldly proclaim the formerly secret purpose that God had in Christ. A careful study of the doctrines and truths revealed in Paul's letters to the Thessalonians will allow Christians to walk in wisdom in the days ahead. "I want Christians to understand the importance of 'rightly dividing the word of truth,'" states Busch, "to understand what God is doing with those who have believed the gospel."
David Winston Busch has a B.A. in history from S.U.N.Y. Albany and a J.D. from Syracuse University College of Law.
