The part of the Bible that appears to be most captivating as well as perplexing is undoubtedly those on Prophecies. While we know that God has made known His blueprint on future in the Scripture, we still find it complicated and often difficult to comprehend the big picture, not to mention applying the truth involved. Since there are so many theories on prophecies nowadays, it is very difficult to discern which one is correct, which one is wrong, and which one is inconclusive. There is a strong need for vigorous and detailed study of the end times prophecies in the Bible.
Since 2016, Dr W H Seto has led a group of Christians to study this particular aspect of the Bible. This small group was truly endowed to realize His plans and to appreciate His almightiness and righteousness. Indeed the Lord’s amazing words are unfailing and are eminent to both the people of Israel and the world. We believe God has led His children to know His intentions and what lies in store for them, so that they may know how to live according to His will, and others to come to know Him when time is running out.
Because of the complexity of the prophecies and the vast area of the scripture that is being covered, we come up with a 3-level course to allow brothers and sisters with different levels of understanding, interest and needs to participate:
Level 1: Mainly on the New Testament, outlining a simple timeline of the end times
Level 2: Study on passages from the Book of Revelation, in particular events in the last 3 and a half years of the Tribulation period and the groups of people involved. Participants will have a basic understanding on the events in the final 7 years at the end times.
Level 3: Study of end times prophecies in the Old Testament with aim of enabling participants to understand the role of Israel in these prophecies. By the end of the course, they should be able to come up with a clear picture of God’s plan for salvation for mankind and the chronological order of different end times events.
May all be blessed by His wonderful plan. Let us join together, move forward to know His will and have the grace of witnessing His second coming.

結語,以下節錄部分參加研習班弟兄姊妹的心聲:
馮弟兄
...... 根據聖經學者沛恩 (J.BartonPayne) 在他的「聖經預言大全」書中所作的統計: 整本聖經約有三萬一千一百二十四節,其中有八千三百五十二節都是預言。 ......
https://m.xuite.net/blog/w3817939/luke/36453409
因此,約1/4 (27%)是預言。
在福音書裏耶穌對門徒説了很多預言,當預言的事「得成就時,」門徒就不會驚惶,也因此而信祂。
...... 記得以色列聖經學院院長,卓松柏博士 (Dr Erez) 曾經説過,整本聖經差不多有三分之一是關於預言,而整本聖經都是神所默示的,因此,為什麼不認真查考?聽了唔明,又怎樣遵守呢?所以一定要認真查考。
劉姊妹
...... 查考末世的啟示,鼓勵了我要常作預備,過有紀律 (discipline) 的生命。分享福音應是我們最優先次序,因為我們得番好少時間了!
...... 能從創世到末後的日子,有一幅整全的大圖畫 (an overall perspective from creation to the end time),當人問我們的世界觀,就不致不整全地回答。如 彼得前書 3章15節 說,「只要心裡尊主基督為聖。有人問你們心中盼望的緣由,就要常作準備,以溫柔、敬畏的心回答各人」。
「盼望的緣由」就是永生的盼望, 包括主再來、天國在人間,就是永恆時間的到來。
...... 我們有一個很重要的角色 (understand we have a role) — 能與主千禧之時同在;要提醒弟兄姊妹不要分心。免得在最後的審判日子失去了...... (must help advise people not to be distracted in the end and loss in final judgement......)
黃弟兄
...... 這是神留下整本聖經「The Whole Counsel of God.上帝的全部忠告」 66卷書重要的一部份,我們雖是外邦並重生的基督徒,相信主再來前「已被提,」但不能忽視並需要更深入理解啟示錄第4章至20章。因我們越是理解「被提後,」會發生的事情,就更有迫切性地「去,傳講福音 ; 去,栽培門徒。」
潘弟兄
...... 已經有部分預言實現了,這令查預言的人更確信「未實現的預言」必定會如「已實現的般實現,」弟兄姊妹的生命及方向會因而得調節和重整,得着天父寶貴的應許!
林弟兄
...... 無論信徒如何解讀,我們都得承認,離末世審判越來越近。使徒約翰勸勉眾聖徒要「警醒。。。」
啟示錄 1:3
「誦讀這書上預言的,和那些聽見又遵守其中所記載的,都是有福的,因為時候近了。」
如果不去研讀了解,怎樣能夠做好準備呢?
就如主耶穌在馬太福音25章用童女的比喻,吩咐門徒要「警醒」一樣,沒有預備好的,必會後悔錯失良機。
卓弟兄
...... 在過去多年查考聖經的體會中,没有比查考當中的預言更能帶來震撼和確信神的大能和聖經的權威了!聖經的預言是非常具體和清晰的,並不是任何坊間所吹捧的占卜術數可比擬。
一個例子是但以理書9:25-26在公元前約500年,巳清楚地說明彌赛亞會在公元後33年被殺害。當我們認識到這些歷史上的預言已一一實現,我們也可期待神一早已啟示「關乎未來及末世的预言」也會同樣實現。
有些聖經預言在過往已證明準確地應驗,例如以賽亞書 44:28-45:4 具名指出將來有一個名叫古列的王要下令重新建造耶路撒冷和其中的聖殿,而這預言是後來波斯帝國的古列王出現之前150年所寫的。
故此有智慧的信徒都應認真地認識學習「聖經的預言。」因為我們知道了神所預告未來必成的事後,必定能更警醒地生活,並且即使在今天遭遇各種困難苦楚,也可存著信心和盼望克服一切,將榮耀歸給神。
鍾弟兄
...... 查考預言會讓你我驚訝:神的計劃早就仔細地、完美地在聖經中向我們展示。
對照不同年代寫成的經文,讓我們發現聖經是那麼奇妙的一致,連最細節的地方也完全吻合——這使我對「聖經無謬誤」有更深的確信!也因著當中所顯示的智慧,加深我對神的敬畏。
...... 主耶穌說要留意這時代的預兆,讓我們知道主再來近了(太24:32-33),會好好預備迎見主。沒有查考預言,就不會對主再來敏銳,也不會好好準備,過好管家的生活。
神是按祂的屬性和旨意賜下預言的,查考預言會使我更認識神,以及明白祂對我的旨意。特別是在這個資訊發達的年代,有了電腦、互聯網和便捷的交通,我們才能更明白聖經預言中那些隱藏的、與以色列地理以及猶太人文化相關的訊息,這些對認識神和祂的旨意有著重要的幫助。神把我們放在這時代,不就是要我們這樣努力去明白祂嗎?
司徒弟兄
...... 我們查考預言相關聖經,先決條件是要有像雅各的正確態度,雅各對約瑟的「二個異夢」所持的態度:他看見將來的事情,不像約瑟的其他兄弟!雅各是不斷細心觀察,在心內裏是「有所行動的,」不是「靜態的記住,」這才會得到神的悅納。
...... but his father kept (shamar) the saying in mind...... 原文的意思更精凖。但中文譯得不好「他父親卻把這話存在心裡!」
