After a few months of looking at the book of Romans, we are now picking back up with our historical studies. The last two historical podcasts (July and August 2013) dealt with the military campaigns of Cestius Gallus and Vespasian against the Zealot forces. Before getting into the chronology of the whole war (AD 66-70), we need to review the events that occurred just before the war (AD 64-66). Those last two years were chock full of false messiahs, rumors of war, abominations, lawlessness, signs in the heavens, signs on earth, angelophanies, and voices heard coming from the unseen realm. All the final events that Jesus predicted in Matthew 24 were exploding on the scene like a grand finale fireworks display.

Acts 1:9-11 "In Like Manner" (Pt 2)

Every prophetic view (futurist and preterist) uses the book of Romans as a source for its particular approach to fulfillment.
