Many places in the Bible we see terms like "in that day" and "in this day" used to describe significant events in history. The coming out of Egypt and the crossing of the Red Sea are described with these terms. Sadly this type of language is also used to describe Israel and Judah turning away from God. In this Bible Study Mr. Smith shows us that there are many uses of these terms to describe yet future events relating to God establishing His rule over this earth. He ends the study by looking at the use of this terminology that relates directly to each of us, the receiving of a crown and eternal life in God's kingdom which points us to the meaning of the upcoming Feast of Trumpets.
