First, the thesis. The first edition is the exact text that was accepted by the University of Wales. Apart from a few minor changes and a second preface, the only change in the second edition is the single lining, which of course affects pagination. I expect most people who want to print parts or all of the text for reading will prefer this to the double lining of the first edition. Page size is A4; page layout is set up for doublesided printing.

And finally, one more item. It is my contribution to the already huge pool of evangelical end-time books. It is based on my master's thesis, and I think it is still a pretty good and readeable overview. You can now download this critical look at four main evangelical views of the end times.
