The Basics of Bible Prophecy
FREE PUBLICATION
A clear and accessible guide to understanding God’s prophetic plan for the world, Israel, the Church, and the return of Jesus Christ.

Overview

Can the Bible really explain where the world is heading?

Wars, global instability, moral confusion, rising technology, and growing uncertainty leave many people asking the same question: What on earth is going on?

The Basics of Bible Prophecy was written to help everyday readers understand the major themes of biblical prophecy in a simple, structured, and Scripture-based way.

Written by Dr. John R. Ecob, this 217-page resource walks through the foundational themes of Bible prophecy in clear, straightforward language, supported by more than 20 full-colour prophetic charts and timelines and over 1,000 Scripture references, so readers can study each theme directly from God’s Word rather than take our word for it.

What You’ll Learn

This book walks through six major areas of Bible prophecy:

✓ The Seven Dispensations of Time
✓ Daniel’s 70 Weeks prophecy
✓ The Times of the Gentiles
✓ The Russian/Muslim alliance in Ezekiel 38–39
✓ Signs of the Last Days
✓ The Book of Revelation

You’ll also come away understanding why fulfilled prophecy strengthens confidence in the Bible, how current world conditions align with what Scripture foretold, and the biblical distinction between Israel, the nations, and the Church.

Why This Matters

Bible prophecy is not merely about world events or timelines. It reveals that God is sovereign over history and that His Word can be trusted.

As society grows darker and more uncertain, prophecy shines “as a light in a dark place” and points people toward the only true source of hope: Jesus Christ.

This book was designed not only to inform believers, but also to awaken readers to the lateness of the hour and the need for salvation through Christ.

Ideal For
- Christians wanting a foundational understanding of prophecy
- New believers seeking a clear overview of God’s plan

Britain and USA
FREE PUBLICATION
Are Britain and America named in Bible prophecy? Does Scripture actually predict the role these nations will play in the last days? And what does any of this have to do with you?

Overview

This scholarly yet accessible study examines whether Great Britain, the United States, and the Commonwealth nations can be identified in the pages of Scripture. Drawing on biblical genealogy, ancient history, and a careful examination of prophetic passages from Ezekiel, Isaiah, Psalms, and Revelation, Dr. John Ecob builds a detailed case that the “Merchants of Tarshish and the young lions thereof” refer to the English-speaking world and the significant, defined role they play from the present age through the Tribulation and into the Millennial Kingdom of Christ. Also examined are two common errors, the British-Israel Theory and the Seventh Day Adventist interpretation. This book is 62 pages and includes 14 charts and maps.

What You’ll Discover
- Why the biblical “Merchants of Tarshish” point to Great Britain and her colonial offspring rather than Spain
- How Cornwall’s 2,500-year history as Europe’s only major source of tin connects directly to Ezekiel’s prophecy (27:12) and identifies Britain as the ancient Tarshish
- The role Tarshish and her “young lions” play in Ezekiel 38 when Russia and her Islamic allies invade Israel
- What the “two wings of a great eagle” in Revelation 12:14 may reveal about America’s last-days role in protecting and sustaining Israel through the second half of the Tribulation
- Why two widely held interpretations of Britain and America in prophecy both fail the test of Scripture, history, and consistent biblical hermeneutics
Ideal For
- Christians wanting to understand how current geopolitical events involving Britain, America, Israel, and Arabia connect to end-times prophecy
- Believers studying Ezekiel 38–39
- Church members, Bible study groups, or Sunday school teachers looking for a reliable treatment of the nations in prophecy
- Evangelists and tract distributors seeking a resource that bridges current events and the urgency of the gospel

Why It Matters

If Scripture identifies Britain and America in prophecy, then the events unfolding in our world are not random. They are the fulfilment of God’s Word. This study equips believers with confidence that we are living in the days the prophets foretold, and calls every reader to be ready for the return of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Amillennialism – Weighed and Found Wanting
FREE PUBLICATION
Is there really no literal kingdom to come? Has God finished with Israel? Are the promises of Scripture meant to be taken symbolically, or exactly as written?

Overview

What is amillennialism? Why do many sincere Christians hold this view of Bible prophecy?

In its simplest form, amillennialism teaches that there will be no literal 1,000-year reign of Christ on earth. Instead, prophetic passages, particularly in Revelation, are understood symbolically rather than literally.

But why do people hold this view? What Scriptures do they point to, and does this approach best reflect God’s revealed Word and His character?

This book examines the foundations of amillennial teaching, the passages used to support it, and the reasoning behind it, before weighing it carefully against the full testimony of Scripture.

What You’ll Discover
- What amillennialism teaches and why it is widely held
- The key Scriptures used to support this view
- The differences between amillennialism and other prophetic frameworks
- Why a literal, dispensational understanding provides a clearer and more consistent interpretation of Scripture
At the heart of this issue is a simple question:

How should the Bible be interpreted?

Amillennialism approaches prophecy symbolically, often moving away from the plain meaning of the text.

If God has spoken clearly, we must ask whether our understanding aligns with what He has said.

Israel Covenants & Kingdom
FREE PUBLICATION
Why has no nation on earth suffered so much and survived so improbably as the Jew? Is Israel’s modern-day return to the land a political accident, or the fulfilment of a promise God made four thousand years ago? If God’s covenants with Israel are as unbreakable as Scripture claims, what does that mean for the days we’re living in now?

Overview

Israel’s Covenants and Kingdom traces God’s everlasting covenants with Abraham and his descendants from Genesis through to the present-day State of Israel, showing how the Abrahamic and Palestinian Covenants have governed the nation’s history for four thousand years through dispersion, persecution, and restoration. In this book, Dr Ecob examines the 70 Weeks prophecy, the Roman dispersion foretold by Isaiah, the rise of Zionism, the Holocaust, and Israel’s fight for independence, concluding with a look at Israel’s future in God’s prophetic plan.

What You’ll Discover
- How the specific Covenants explain Israel’s purpose and history
- Daniel’s “70 Weeks” prophecy and its precise fulfilment
- How Isaiah a great dispersion centuries in advance
- The providence of God behind modern events leading up to Israel’s 1948 independence

Preterism – Weighed and Found Wanting
FREE PUBLICATION
Did Jesus really promise to return within the lifetime of the Apostles? Did He keep that promise at the fall of Jerusalem in AD70?

Is the Great Tribulation, the Antichrist, and the Battle of Armageddon already behind us?

Some claim “the Last Days are behind us, not ahead of us” but is that the best understanding of the Author’s intended meaning of specific passages, and does it hold when weighed against the whole counsel of Scripture?

Overview

“Preterism” is the view that most or all biblical prophecy was fulfilled when Rome destroyed Jerusalem in AD70.

In this scholarly yet accessible book, Dr John Ecob exposes interpretations the Preterist must assume and examines that claim systematically tests them against Scripture, history, and the witness of the early Church.

What You’ll Discover
- What Matthew 16:28 means in context and what God inspired Peter to state about it decades later.
- Who “this generation” of Matthew 24:34 refers to and signs which were absent in AD70.
- The origins of the Preterist view, whether they reach back to the Church Fathers or to a far later controversy about church authority.
- How Preterist interpretations of Daniel’s 70th Week, the ten horns, and the “little horn” hold up against Scripture and verifiable Roman history.
- Whether a spiritualised reading of Israel’s national future can be sustained, or if it renders God’s covenants meaningless.
Format & Availability

Hard copies available on request.

Why It Matters

If the Last Days are behind us, then the Rapture, the Tribulation, the literal return of Christ, and God’s covenant promises to Israel are either already fulfilled invisibly or no longer relevant, a conclusion the Scriptures will not bear.

This book equips believers to recognise a growing error that quietly undermines the blessed hope, weakens evangelistic urgency, and robs Christ of the visible, glorious return that is His rightful due.

Read it to be grounded, and to be ready.

Russian and Islam In Bible Prophecy
FREE PUBLICATION
Why does Ezekiel single out a nation from “the north” to lead an invasion of Israel in the last days? Could the modern alliance between Russia and the Muslim world be the very coalition Scripture described over 2,500 years ago?

Overview

This study identifies the nations named in Ezekiel 38–39 (Russia, Iran, Turkey, Libya, and Sudan) using Scripture, ancient history, and current geopolitics. It traces how these nations will move against Israel in the first half of the Tribulation, and how God will use their destruction to bring the Jewish people to acknowledge Jesus Christ as Messiah.

- Which countries are named as Russia’s allies in the invasion
- The specific means God will use to destroy the invading armies to prove He alone saves His people
- Why this invasion must occur after the Rapture of the Church, and its connection to Israel’s national conversion
- How the destruction of Russia and Islam sets the stage for Antichrist’s rise at the mid-point of the Tribulation
Who It’s For
- Believers wanting to understand how current events in Russia, Iran, and the Middle East connect to Bible prophecy
- Bible students looking for a nation-by-nation identification of the Ezekiel 38–39 invaders
- Those who want a Scripture-grounded alternative to speculative or sensationalist “end-times” commentary
- Readers already familiar with the broader Prophecy Series wanting to go deeper on this specific event

The Real Story of Esther
FREE PUBLICATION
A compelling and historically grounded study that uncovers the true context of Esther and reveals God’s unseen hand at work in preserving His people.

Overview

What really happened in the days of Esther? Was it a peaceful royal story, or something far more turbulent and significant?

Many interpretations of Esther assume a setting of prosperity and simplicity. But when the historical context is examined carefully, a very different picture emerges.

Through this lens, the book comes alive with greater clarity and urgency. Though God’s name is not mentioned, His hand is seen working behind the scenes to preserve His covenant people and fulfil His purposes.

What You’ll Discover
- The historical setting of Esther and why it matters for interpretation
- Why common views of Esther’s timeline and context fall short
- How God worked providentially through hidden circumstances
- The role of Israel among the nations in God’s unfolding plan
- How Esther points forward to future events and God’s faithfulness
