The Fathers on The End Times
I’m slowly compiling research, and hopefully putting a book together! One element that I’ve been researching is what the pre-Nicene fathers specifically state about the end times.

For another, it is because I’ve been pondering a lot, and I hate to release anything that isn’t based in well-researched writing. But, now I’ve decided that I should just write about what I’m thinking through for my own benefit, and see if anyone has interesting or fruitful comments to have a discussion about this.
