The "Last Days" Are Behind Us: Our Best Days Are Ahead! An Antidote for Alarmist End-Time Viewpoints and a Biblical Proposal for a Positive Future

Tritle confronts the secular and religious alarmists by addressing the threshold-ism of impending world doom, as well as escapism and pessimism regarding the success of the Church's gospel message that are associated with such teachings. On the contrary, our futures are filled with great hope based on the Word of God itself. This is good news for both Christians and non-Christians alike.

Tritle specifically addresses questions concerning the last days, the rapture, the Antichrist, the mark of the beast, as well as summarizing the Revelation of Jesus Christ, the Epistle to the Hebrews, and wisdom literature to argue for the reality of our living in and enjoying the inaugurated New Heavens and New Earth, and the New Jerusalem, the Church.
