About The Hope Of The Promise: Israel In Ancient & Latter

Product Description Sometimes the histories of the prophets feel more like fairy tales . . . . . . but they're as real as the places they left behind. Revisit God's promises through these historical sites and experience His word like never before. When the Apostle Paul stood before Festus and Agrippa on trial for his life, he claimed he was being judged "for the hope of the promise made of God unto" Israel. Festus thought Paul had gone mad, but Agrippa was almost persuaded to embrace Christianity. In The Hope of the Promise, Dr. Joseph Jarvis explores several of the ancient sites where biblical events took place and revisits Paul's question: "Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?"

Dr. Jarvis's skillful use of scriptures, quotes, images, and amazing insights on God's promises makes for a thought-provoking, inspiring book." --Melissa Dalton Martinez, Reviewer for THE BOOK BREAK "THE HOPE OF THE PROMISE is the most detailed, understandable, and inspiring book I have read about the historic and modern-day relevance of the Holy Land and its people.  As a devout Christian who has long loved the Holy Land, its people and its history, met with its leaders, including Teddy Kollek, Shimon Peres and Yasser Arafat, and baptized two daughters in the River Jordan, I encourage everyone to study this amazing book to gain an understanding of what has happened in the Holy Land over the centuries, to learn of its historical impact around the world, and to build greater hope and faith in the promises for our future." --Brent Beesley, International Business Leader  "The idea of this book is fascinating.  It is not the usual guide book to Israel, but is written with passion and spirituality.  It is written in a way that makes the reader want to read on. The guidance to sites in Israel offered in the book is information at a very high, professional level. Every Bible reader will enjoy this book." --Nir Nitzan, Colonel, IDF, Owner & Guide for Nitzan Travel Service, Gedera, Israel "...In THE HOPE OF THE PROMISE, Dr. Jarvis' familiarity with the geography and stories of ancient Israel come to life in the conversational style of a tour guide who loves his subject, its history, and sees the lessons for our day. ...Jarvis' compelling call to action rings with clarity "If you wish to participate in the gathering of Israel, base your actions, choices, and preaching on the scriptures of Judah and Joseph." Jarvis has adeptly crafted a book that brings to life the Bible--making the scriptures of Judah--a 'not to be forgotten' part of the stick we want to hold in our hand and heart." --Jan Garbett, Community Leader About the Author Joseph Q.
