Jesus is coming again - as King. But what will the Return of the King be like? The bible speaks of a thousand-year reign of Jesus - a Millennium Reign - but what is the Millennium Reign? Author Robert Laynton takes a fresh look at these themes to present a more grounded and sober look at what the Bible has to say concerning the Return of the King and the Millennium Reign. His takes the reader right back to the beginning, to trace the development of these themes within the narrative of God's grand plan of creation and of salvation and restoration in the light of humanity's fall into disobedience and condemnation. It is a plan that has been enacted in history and is being enacted right now; a plan intimately connected with the Jews and with the nation of Israel; with events that will affect the whole world in an unprecedented way. This book should engage students and believers from both Christian and Judaic traditions, as well as anyone who is seriously concerned about these themes.

Christianity and Judaism differ in their views of the Messiah but both of these religious traditions are looking forward in time to the coming of the Messiah. In the light of such different perspectives, who is it that is coming and what will be the impact of this event? This book suggests that there is more commonality between Jewish and Christian perspectives than may at first appear on the surface. By drawing primarily from the Hebrew Scriptures and the Christian New Testament Scriptures, it traces the unfolding story of God's plan of redemption, reconciliation and restoration of the world to Himself though His chosen nation, the Children of Israel, and their promised Messiah. It is an epic narrative of a kingdom usurped and being regained, and one that is both uplifting and full of hope but at the same time sobering, raising concerns for all of us at this present time.

Christianity and Judaism differ concerning the Messiah - the one chosen and set apart by God to be the deliverer of God's people - yet both are looking forward in time to the coming of the Messiah. So who is it that is coming and what will be the impact of this event? Is there any hope of reconciling such divergent viewpoints? This study suggests that there is more commonality between Jewish and Christian perspectives than may first appear. By drawing primarily from the Hebrew Scriptures and the Christian New Testament Scriptures, it traces the unfolding story of God's plan of redemption, reconciliation and restoration of the world to Himself though His chosen nation, the Children of Israel, and the promised Messiah.

What happens when a person has a Clear, Vivid, ecstatic, transcendent religious or spiritual experience where they sense that they are being 'caught up' to God, or Spirit? Do they really encounter an unseen, intangible 'spiritual realm' that is Ultimate Reality and the Ground of existence? Why do some people who are diagnosed as 'mentally ill' claim to have such experiences? If a person persists in these kinds of beliefs, are they deluded, or even mad? Are they actually suffering from 'religious mania'? Are atheists correct in dismissing these experiences as merely 'psychological'? Or is it the atheists who are blind and deaf when it comes to Ultimate Reality? Drawing from personal experience and from over forty years of practical and theoretical engagement with spirituality and religion, as well as from approaches within psychology, author Robert Laynton explores these questions, not as a defense of religion or spirituality but as an exploration of experience on the edge of reason.
