Another book to read is Joel Rosenberg's book Epicenter
Thanks I will check that out. I was looking at some of the links from your profile. Good stuff there!
Grant Jeffrey is also one of the better headline chaser authors. If anyone want's a good Biblical commentary on the book of Revelation, Grant Osborne published a masterpiece last year as part of the Baker Exegetical series. It's every bit as good a Mounce's tome but not as long and dry. Really, good stuff.
It really bums me out that Calvin never wrote a commentary on Revelation. I love Calvin's comentaries. In fact, Calvin, the greatest Christian systematic theologian ever, almost never addresses the subject of eschatology at all. Go figure.
