Arnold V. Page’s The Date of Christ’s Return is a bold
and meticulously researched exploration of biblical prophecy, well-written for
the contemporary audience in an age of uncertainty. Page is a seasoned minister
with backgrounds in engineering and theology, and he brings an analytical mind
to questions that have stirred the hearts and minds of believers and skeptics
alike: Can we know when Christ will return? And if so, what does that mean
for our lives today? The book is panoramic in its scope, tracing the
world’s timeline from creation to what Page argues is an imminent conclusion. His
approach is grounded in a literal interpretation of scripture, particularly the
seven-thousand-year plan derived from Genesis and echoed by early Jewish and
Christian writers. He skillfully connects Old Testament events—such as the
flood, the Exodus, and the Jewish feasts—to New Testament prophecy, showing how
these patterns foreshadow Christ’s return.
I enjoyed the simplicity in writing, the clarity in explanations
and exposés, and the author’s uncanny ability to connect biblical references.
He discusses prophecies from Daniel and Revelation with unusual lucidity, permeating
the writing with personal anecdotes and references to Jewish, Muslim, and even
scientific perspectives, making the work accessible without diluting its depth.
The appendices are a treasure trove of data, from Egyptian chronology to a
Bible reading plan. The book resists sensationalism. Rather than employing
scare tactics, Page offers an encouraging reminder of the sustaining power of
faith, underlining readiness and hope over fear. He acknowledges
skepticism—citing Jesus’ own words that “no one knows the day or hour”—but
argues that the “signs of the times” now allow for a more precise
understanding. The Date of Christ’s Return will have a strong appeal to
theologians and lay readers; it is one of the finest discussions you’ll read
about the end-times.
