Item A Letter to Africa About Africa, K. Munza : Book Review Conspectus : The Journal of the South African Theological Seminary, Volume 5, Issue 03, Mar 2008, p. 207 - 208(South African Theological Seminary Press Johannesburg, South Africa) Smith, Kevin G.The objective of this short book is to argue that the root cause of the social evils that afflict Africa have their roots in an unbiblical worldview, and the appropriate treatment is ""theotherapy"", helping African Christians to embrace a biblical worldview.Item An Introduction to the Johannine Gospel and Letters, J. van der Watt : Book Review Conspectus : The Journal of the South African Theological Seminary, Volume 6, Issue 09, Sep 2008, p. 129 - 131Asumang, AnnangThe first chapter descriptionbes the structure and purpose of the gospel of John and its relationship with the Letters. Van der Watt notes that the narrative flow of the gospel is such that the chronological account is not as important as the thematic account - ""It is the message and not the events that dominate the narrative"" (p. 12). Thus the emphasis in this introductory book is clearly on John's theology.Item Review The End Times Made Simple: How Could Everybody Be So Wrong About Biblical Prophecy, S.E. Waldron Conspectus : The Journal of the South African Theological Seminary, Volume 16, Issue 09, Sep 2013, p. 101 - 110(South African Theological Seminary Press Johannesburg, South Africa) Woodbridge, Noel B.Nowadays there is much confusion in the field of eschatology. On the one hand, believers are being advised to 'follow the unbiblical, complex and bizarre scheme of Dispensationalism with its "Secret Rapture," political Anti-Christ and worldly Millennium' (WTS Books 2013). On the other hand, the 'full preterists' inform us 'that all biblical prophecy has been fulfilled', and they say that we ought not to expect Christ to descend from the sky in judgment and triumph. However, in his book, The end times made simple, Waldron claims that both of these end-time schemes are incorrect and that the Bible teaching on the end-times is actually quite straightforward (WTS Books 2013).
