Is human history simply an open-ended continuum, or does it have some logic, some parameters, some underlying structure? This book tackles this question using an ancient theological construct that is subjected to afresh and unique analysis. This book explores the 7,000 year theory of history using a three-dimensional system of 'stacking' sets of Scripture that, in the layering process, reveal prophetic connections throughout the biblical text. The overall structure of history is seen to rest on the prophetic foundation of the first chapter of Genesis. With the Gregorian year 2000 now behind us, many seem ready to give the 7,000 year theory of history of hasty burial. This book demonstrates that the old theory has never been more viable. Christian thinking understandably focuses on the birth of Christ as history's pivotal event. This book refocuses on the death and resurrection of Christ, pointing instead at the Cross as the central event of history and projecting the millennial parameters from that event. This book offers a refreshing and challenging look at that possibility. Readers of 7K will take a scenic ride through history as viewed through the prophetic lens of Scripture. The complete trip takes seven millennial days. Trying this vacation from traditional and secular version of history will surely give readers some fresh conceptions with which to assess the great plan God has for His image.
