Why does Jesus wait? Does the last generation have anything to do with the delay? What about 1888? These questions, among others, form the heart of this probing new book from George R. Knight.
Description /
End-Time Events and The Last Generation
Adventism has only one serious problem: TIME. Time that never stops. Time that moves on and on. All other challenges faced by the denomination flow out of continuing time.
In this probing book George Knight explores the following:
Why does Jesus wait?
Does the last generation have anything to do with the delay?
What about the 1888 message of A. T. Jones and E. J. Waggoner?
What was the significance of Questions on Doctrine?
How have the 1950s shaped Adventism’s continuing journey?
Those questions, among others, form the heart of this important book.

As Seventh-day Adventists, we can all agree that the Bible and the Spirit of Prophecy are absolutely true. It's astonishing that we can share this commonality and yet still fundamentally disagree on what the Bible and the Spirit of Prophecy are actually saying about so many things. More of a tragedy is how passionately some can criticize others when both parties are doing their best to follow the Spirit's leading about what they are reading.
In End-Time Events and the Last Generation, Dr. Knight digs in to the history of one such doctrinal fight. Looking at the sweep of the Last Generation Theology arguments and learning more about the people involved in the origins of the argument was almost as powerful as the doctrinal discussion of the issues.
This book really helped me understand Last Generation Theology.
