Bible Prophecy Explained

This book has been a life-time quest to understand why God created man and what God is after.  It all started March 1946 when I accepted Jesus Christ as LORD of my life.  For sixty five years I have diligently studied the Bible and sought to find out and to understand “What Is God Up To?”  In December 2004, the LORD awakened me in the night and gave me the outline for the book, “GOD HAS A PLAN AND A PURPOSE FOR YOUR LIFE,” which was published in February 2006.  On the morning of May 31, 2006, while in prayer, the LORD gave me the outline for the book that endeavors to answer the questions: WHAT IS GOD UP TO?  WHY EARTH?  WHY ETERNITY?  I was to prepare a comprehensive study of the Biblical “prophets” and to correlate all they “prophesied” in chronological order that would be related to Earth’s history and eternity.  This book is a special effort to explain Bible Prophecy in a simple and easy narrative that will help people to clearly understand Bible Prophecy.













OLIVER E. SUMMERS received a call to ministry in 1946 when he was a young teenager.  His ministerial training began in 1950 when he attended Southern California Bible College (name change to Vanguard University of Southern California) and graduated with a B.A. degree in New Testament.  He attended seminary at Berkeley Baptist Divinity School (name changed to American Baptist Seminary of the West) and graduated with a M.A. degree in New Testament.  He also attended University of California at Los Angeles and completed many courses in business administration.  His pastoral ministry included pastorates in Oregon, Texas and California.  He has served the Methodist Church, American Baptist Church, Assemblies of God Churches and several non-denominational churches.  He also spent time in the financial industry and served as President and Chief-Executive Officer of several independent community banks.  He has spent his retirement years in prayer, study and writing on Bible prophecy.  The LORD has impressed upon him that an effective way to explain the Bible Prophecy would be to use the round-table discussion format to help many people to understand Bible Prophecy.
