The Rapture : Truth or Consequences

Rating:
Summary: Rapture
Review: I read this book for the first time in 1986 and, because I had passed it on, had to buy it again in order to re-read it. I find Hal Lindsey's information to be very balanced and Scripturally correct. In our world today, we as Christians wonder if we are fast approaching the rapture, and Mr. Lindsey's book is a good guide to discerning the times while awaiting the hope of our Lord. The book may be 20 years old, but it's value endures. I highly recommend this book if you are truly searching for the signs of the end.

Summary: This book is THE decoder key for Revelation - A must read!
Review: Revelation is the only book in the Bible that specifically promises the reader a special blessing for reading it.. (at the end). The problem is, a straight read through of Revelation can be confusing at best, because it is written in symbolic language. The Rapture is BY FAR the best book I've ever read for decoding this language; it walks you through the entire book of Revelation step by step, and presents the background, supporting logic, and meanings for the mysteries you encounter in this most difficult book. In subjects where there are honest differences of opinion, Hal presents both sides of the argument, and provides his take on the pros and cons of each. It is a balanced, clear and thought provoking work, well worth your time whether you are a believer or not.

Summary: MORE LIES FROM LINDSEY ...
Review: This is a teaching popular among Evangelical Protestants and asserts that Christians will be miraculaously delivered from the tribulation and that only the "unsaved" will suffer under the rule of the Antichrist. The idea that Christians will be "raptured"-that is, taken up into heaven-before the tribulation is an invention of the ninteenth century. No one in the previous 1800 yrs. of Christian history ever came up with such a notion...Anyone that likes a book like this needs to read (Matthew 25:13)
