Interest in the end times is increasing, and there are some critical questions every student of end-time prophecy must come to terms with. How should scripture be understood when it speaks of the Antichrist: Literally or allegorically? And if the Antichrist and his persecution are literal events, will the church have to undergo this terrible time of persecution, or will she be removed before the time of great tribulation begins? Theological thinkers across America today are hotly debating these burning questions, yet the Bible could not be more clear as to the answers.

In Satan and the Problem of Evil, noted scholar Archie Wright explores this dynamic in both its historical and theological trajectories.
