Rating: Summary: Refreshing and inspiring Review: In his ever-fresh way, Max Lucado manages to walk the believer through the often-intimidating prophecies of the second coming while never becoming bogged down in eschatological tedium. His message is, 'You can be ready when it all goes down, and you can face it unafraid.' The book is aimed at believers; an unbeliever reading this book (?) would be left aware of his need, though I'm not quite sure he would know exactly what to do about it. For the believer, though, the book is very comforting. Hebrews 9:28 says that Jesus will return a second time for those who eagerly wait for Him. This book will help our wait be an eager one.
Rating: Summary: It is wonderful ! Review: It is a must read for all. This book will be a comfort for all Christians who have lost loved ones.
Rating: Summary: The Second Coming Review: Max Lucado gives an easy-to-understand explanation of the Second Coming of Christ in this book. He uses Scripture, along with examples from everyday life, to show what it will be like. He advises the reader on what his attitude should be while "waiting forwardly" for Christ. He tells us what Scripture means when it says we will be raised to Heaven at our death and will be given a new body when Christ returns. He tells us about the difference between being saved and then about appearing before God on Judgment Day. He emphasizes God's grace and the defeat of Satan. This is a clear and concise book which will give the Christian a positive feeling about the Second Coming.
