God Cares vol. 2: The Message of Revelation
by C. Mervyn Maxwell Author
A best-selling classic in two volumes, God Cares contains the latest research on the fascinating prophetic books of Daniel and Revelation. The author unites the most recent scholarship with a compassionate pen as he speaks to all who search for meaning in world history and current events. Recognizing that both Roman Catholic and evangelical Protestant attitudes and emphases have changed over the past century, Dr. Maxwell speaks sympathetically to these various shifts in thought and feeling. He provides careful answers to those particular questions of interpretation that have become increasingly important in the last half of the twentieth century. God Cares lets the books of Daniel and Revelation speak directly to the minds and hearts of modern men and women. The reader of these volumes will discover that prophecy not only foretells the future, but that it clearly reveals God and His infinite care for us. How God provides for his people- pleading with them to accept His forgiveness and power to live changed lives- is a theme the author traces unfailingly throughout his exposition of these two dramatic books of the Bible.
