Expecting the End Millennialism in Social And Historical Context

Jesus' promise that athe enda draws near has spawned an expectation of that grand event across various religious groups. This volume examines the abiding social issues that surround the continued presence of apocalyptic anticipation by setting them in historical, present-day, and future manifestations. Approaching this fervent expectation from a broad perspective, Gribben and Newport explore the contemporary movements with insightful analysis that provokes discussion and even self-reflection.Newport, Kenneth G. C. is the author of 'Expecting the End Millennialism in Social And Historical Context', published 2006 under ISBN 9781932792386 and ISBN 1932792384.
