The Characteristics Of Apocalyptic Literature Using Daniel
And Revelation : 7 pages in length. Will the world come to an
end? If one's faith is placed in the Bible, then it appears to be
the case. There is considerable mention of the planet's last days
as humanity pushes forth with all its arrogant and contemptuous
behavior. It is as though the human race has sought out its own
destruction from the warnings of apocalyptic prophecies that
represent its own destiny. Indeed, the Bible instructs that the
world will witness an end to life as it is known in such a
tremendous world war that nations will be pitted against one
another and kingdoms will slay other kingdoms in the name of
Armageddon. The writer discusses apocalyptic prophecies as
they relate to Daniel and Revelation. Bibliography lists 5

Eternity by Brain Davies. The theories discussed address the
essential quality of time which is a highly opinionated reality. If
time is nothing more than an illusion then God does not exist in

divine essence and the subject of eternity within human ideas
which address the reality of time. No additional sources cited.
