The existing prophetic models for the last days and second coming of Christ do not provide adequate explanations for biblical passages stating Jesus would return within the first century. This inadequacy results from the piecemeal development of these models. This sporadic development has created models that demand erroneous assumptions and unbiblical corrective devices in their interpretation of key passages and terms. Michael A. Rogers corrects these assumptions and systematically develops a comprehensive prophetic model capable of explaining these problematic passages, resulting in a model that respects both the Bible's teaching and the orthodox doctrine of the historical Church.
