Nearly 2000 years ago, the first Christians lived in the last days, and the end was at hand in their immediate future. Jesus warned them of things to come in their own generation; and when they saw all those things, they would know the end was near. The origin of "end of the world" prophecies was this series of signs meant for those who lived 2000 years ago. Most theologians claim all those things have not happened; and therefore, the end time is expected in our future. Most evangelicals are waiting for Christ to return a second time. 
   Ms. Schuldt's carefully documented book proves that all those things happened, historically, to those people nearly 2000 years ago in their future and in their generation. The end time was therefore future to them, but past for us. Evangelicals ignore this view because they maintain that no one living when Jesus described the things to come lived to see all those things come to pass. However, scriptural and historical references in this book show the first Christians did see all those things come to pass.

Lynn Schuldt is an author and researcher specializing in Bible prophecy and history of the Roman Empire. Her persistent investigations during the ten years of writing Prophecy Paradox: the Case for a First Century End Time uncovered abundant evidence for first century fulfillment of prophecy. 

This book is supported by extant Greek and Roman history in conjunction with biblical history. Sources include The Life and Works of Josephus, a history of Rome by Dio Cassius, the Dead Sea Scrolls and many others. This book is unique in that the final climax is set in A.D.79 rather than A.D.70.

A Christian Dilemma: time statements: Jesus provided a first century time frame for His second coming. 

A Visible Second Coming: This list of New Testament verses shows consistent biblical intent that first century Christians would live to see both a literal and visible return of Christ to gather His elect. 

Creative Christianity: New evidence is turning up that Jesus did indeed return for His elect, in power and glory during the first century. In our attempt to place the second coming of our Lord in OUR future, rather than the generation of the Apostles, are we creatively altering the Bible to suit our own preference?
