Jim Flanigan was born into a Christian family in Northern Ireland, born again there, and received into Parkgate Assembly in East Belfast in 1946. For many years he served the Lord as a businessman. Then in 1972, he sensed the Master calling him to devote all his energies to teaching and preaching the Word of God. He has travelled widely in Britain, the U.S., Canada, Australia, and Israel. His special interest in Israel is evident in his writing. In addition to numerous articles, Mr. Flanigan has penned commentaries on Revelation, Hebrews, and recently, Psalms.
