About This Study

Before the Antichrist rises, before ten kings hand him their crowns, before the armies of the earth gather at Armageddon, Scripture makes one promise first: Jesus is coming for His own.

THE FINAL BATTLE walks verse by verse through every major end-time prophecy in Scripture — from Daniel in Babylon to John on Patmos — tracing a single unbroken story: the catching away of the Church, the rise and fall of the Antichrist, the ten end-time kings who serve him, the Final Battle at Armageddon, and the new heaven and new earth where every promise comes to rest.

Thirty-one chapters in five parts. Every Scripture quotation from the American Standard Version (1901). Every chapter closes with a practical application and a Key Truth to carry into the week.

Written in the futurist, premillennial tradition — while treating other historic Christian readings with honesty and grace — this study is built to leave readers not afraid of the days ahead, but ready for them.
