I see that "Things To Come" by J. Dwight Pentecost is now availiable in electronic format (kindle and epub) Are there plans to have it available in Logos soon? Should I get the ebook or is it on its way here. If there ever was a good time for it that would be soon.
@ ted,
Wasn't MLJ against the pre-mil dispend. view? So why the "I would love to see this...? Kind of confusing.
mm.
Pentecost does a good job of letting the proponents of other views speak for themselves. The book is littered with quotations that fill a large portion of this book. This makes it a good study tool even for those who disagree with his conclusions.
Wow, this was started in 2009 and has been viewed over 3,700 times. Surely this is a publisher hold up. I mean Logos has a whole Pentecost collection. Too bad they couldn't work out a deal for his most "famous" work.
I also would like"Things to Come" and "The Words and Works of Jesus Christ" in logos
+1
for The Words and Works of Jesus Christ
I would like thi book also.
Interesting factoid, D. Pentecost's son-in-law is a forum user here. He was a professor of mine once upon a time. He was better to me than perhaps I deserved.

I have the HARDBACK COPY of THINGS TO COME and it is a very valuable source and an amazingly knowledgeable read.
Anything by J. DWIGHT PENTECOST is good.
I've also wanted to add "Things to Come" to my Logos resources for a long time (and many other books I've owned which are either in Public Domain, or a Private writing.
Last year I signed up for classes at Tyndale (https://www.tyndale.edu/) and for the "General, Bible, Theology and Language" Core books every required volume I had in Logos.com.
For the rest of the main course work I also had the resources in Logos.com which included Lewis Sperry Chafer's Systematic Theology, and a number of Charles Ryrie's works.
There was only one book I had left and there was no choice, it was required for the course. Yep, "Things to Come" by Dr. Pentecost and completely understandable. I've had it for a while and had the electronic copy on my Kindle for iPad.
My recommendation is to purchase "Things to Come" by Dr. Pentecost for the Amazon Kindle, $13 is well worth it.

Below is a link within the logos forum which describes bringing over Kindle Books to logos...The first step of course is converting them to MS Word .docx files, and to go to the Logos Tools Menu, then Utilities and select Personal Books. If anyone has not yet created their own Personal Books, then I would do a web search, or go to the Logos Wiki, once you have the Word .docx done, they take 5 minutes to do and then they index and are available on multiple devices. (Of course this applies only for personal use to read a Kindle book you already purchased, or for public domain books, or your personal writings, etc.".
Here is the forum discussion:

Here's a quick link to the Applications which completes the conversion, which explains the legality and why the app is offered publically and for free:

Below is a screen shot of what "Things to Comes" looks like in Logos after you build it. Hope this helps.
God Bless,

Hard to believe this has been going on since 2009 and no response.
It looks like even a Spanish version is almost funded
https://www.logos.com/product/183729/eventos-del-porvenir
and we can't even get a prepub or community pricing offer.
Glad to see the thread resurrected. I, like many, would like to see this book made available

I got my preorder in! I wonder what the hold up is in English or if it used to be available and then got pulled away?
