CHAPTER

From Politics to Prophecy: The Scofield Impact

This chapter chronicles the transformation of a former politician into a Christian leader whose contributions to the Scofield Reference Bible shaped modern evangelical thought. It examines the cultural and theological ramifications of Scofield's work, particularly during major historical events, as well as exploring the rise of Hal Lindsey and the popularity of prophetic narratives in the 1970s. The discussion also addresses the complex interplay between interpretation of biblical prophecies, popular culture, and the influence of prominent evangelical figures like John Hagee.
