The world has been engulfed in a major crisis—a worldwide pandemic for which we have no vaccine and no sure cure. Because of its randomness, people are rightfully concerned. Much of the world has been told to stay indoors and avoid contact with other people. This epidemic dominates the news—but what does the Bible say? Does this have anything to do with Bible prophecy? What would God have us do at a time such as this? We address these key questions in this issue of Beyond Today magazine. Download this issue in PDF, and look for articles to be posted in the coming days.
