The Chafer Theological Seminary Journal is a biannual publication which purposes to share biblical exegesis and exposition with readers who are interested in in-depth Bible teaching.
“On Oct. 4, 1831, thirty-five clergymen and fifteen laypeople gathered at the country estate of Lady Theodosia Powerscourt, in the small, Irish village of Enniskerry outside Dublin. All who assembled for the first Powerscourt Conference on Biblical prophecy were ‘distressed at the condition of the Church,’ and ‘convinced that the hope of Christ’s return should figure more prominently in the thinking of Christians.’2 Few could have imagined then how great an impact this and subsequent Powerscourt Conferences would have on the wider Church.” (Volume 13, Number 2, Page 52)
“The number of the Beast is also the number of a man because the Antichrist will be a man who will be the last ruler of the final form of the fourth Gentile empire.” (Volume 13, Number 1, Page 31)
“The futurist applies a consistently literal, or normal,5 interpretive grid.” (Volume 13, Number 1, Page 3)
“the Book of Revelation has no direct quotations from the Old Testament” (Volume 13, Number 1, Page 27)
“Because of theses unconditional and unfulfilled aspects of the Abrahamic Covenant, a divine divorce of Israel is impossible. If God can cast aside His covenant promises to His elect nation, then His character is fickle and all of His promises to the church are similarly untrustworthy. Thus, Paul expounds upon God’s covenant faithfulness to Israel (Romans 9–11) immediately after detailing His unconditional promises to the church-age believer (Romans 8:18–39). In other words, because God cannot divorce Israel, we know that He will never divorce the church.” (Volume 13, Number 1, Page 11)
