Rating: Summary: Curious about end time events? Review: This is a great book for anyone looking for insight on the prophecies surrounding the Rapture and associated events. LaHaye and Jenkins do a wonderful job of using scripture to support their opinion that we have more reason than any generation before us to believe that the Rapture will happen sometime in our generation.
Rating: Summary: leave this one behind Review: Could it be that Jenkins and Lahaye are contending that we are living in the end times to sell more of their "Left Behind" books?
Rating: Summary: Makes one wonder what the definition of "false prophets" is. Review: This is either an entertaining work of fiction or a very disturbed set of beliefs. Anyone looking to find the Spirit of Christ should certainly look elsewhere.
Rating: Summary: False prophets, perversely distorting Christ's teachings! Review:
I would strongly suggest you stay away from this book, along with anything else by these two authors incl. the Left Behind series. I would recommend reading works from actual educated theologians, who do not let their political stances and personal opinions distort the meaning of Scriptures.
This book seemed much less a source of info. on God, His Son, their love for us and pre-ordained plan for the world, as Fascist Third Reicht propoganda! I could not even finish it, it was so filled with hatred. Jesus taught to love, not hate. It sickens me they call themselves Christian, much less preachers.
If you're looking for a book on prophesy look elsewhere (Jack Van Impe is great). But, if you're looking to join the KKK, you'll love this.
You'll learn how to not only hate democrats, homosexuals, Catholics (even the Pope), among many others. But how all of us, other than those of the authors' specific conservative Protestant denomination (not saying which), are going to hell.
Their 'knowledgable facts' on Tribulation, the rapture, the Anti-Christ, & the 4 horsemen are self-admittedly opinions, and completely incorrect. I honestly question how much theological/prophetic education they actually have.
In the End Times there will be not just 1 but many false prophets. Some so persuasive, they will lead millions into deception, including many devout Christians. I firmly believe these are two. Heed my warning, and God Bless!
Rating: Summary: how not to interpret the Bible Review: I couldn't even finish this book. The connections, ideas and jumps that the authors make concerning Biblical prophesy and the modern era are at their best shaky and at their worst symptomatic of an overactive imagination. The writers espouse a literal interpretation of the Bible (which as I understand it means that Scripture should be interpreted by its plainest, most obvious and textually accurate meaning whenever possible), yet they repeatedly make outlandish parallels (with little or no literal scriptural foundation) between Biblical prophesy and historical events.
It is fitting that this half-cooked book on eschatology in the modern era should be written by the same authors whose claim to fame is a FICTIONAL literature series based on end times prophecy!
Along with the interpretational problems I have with this book, it also seems to be very anti-everything-except-what-the-authors-tell-you. Also, the little blurb from a Left Behind-series book at the beginning of each chapter looks to me to be a shameless plug for the authors' other works.
The study of prophecy should be used to grow in Christ, not to push your personal agenda and mislead Christians (and non-Christians) who eager to know more about their faith.
Do yourself a favor - take the money you would have used to buy this book and go buy a Bible.
Rating: Summary: it's near but when? Review: those of you who scored this book a 1 star have no foundation in the Bible or are atheist or both...go read revelations again and compare with the events that are happening in today's world. tim lahaye uses the Bible expertly...a good read
Rating: Summary: The Gospel According to LaHaye Review: To have Tim LaHaye tell it, this man has a direct hotline to God. This book is probably the biggest waste of time in literary history. This book and his Left Behind series are just forms of mind control...I mean, come on, what Biblical justification does he have for portraying Jesus as a murderer? Overall this book reflects on Christianity's transformation from a religion of love and understanding to a religion of fear and fire insurance. What [...]. Read the Bible and come up with your own opinions, don't have some false prophet tell you what to think.
Rating: Summary: For serious fantasy lovers only Review: Please read this book. If you believe it then you won't be needing any of your worldly goods or cash anymore so please send it all to me. Anyone ignorant enough to believe in this nonsense shouldn't be allowed to vote, drive, or reproduce. Historians can not accurately even prove who wrote the bible, yet millions of people believe it as the word of God. So why would anyone believe a book, supposedly taken from the scriptures as facts? Read Mother Goose, it's much more believable.
Rating: Summary: Are we living in the End Times?...... Review: ......the answer is NO. For nearly two thousand years Christians have been screaming about the end times. It's not coming. There is no dragon that's going to come out of the ocean. Ever hear of alegory? Get a clue, people. The book of Revelation was written as a promise to Christians that God would deliver them from persecution from the Romans. The battle of Armegeddon was meant to be the final battle against the Romans at Megiddo. 666 is a code for the emporer Nero, NOT A COMPUTER CHIP! Tim Lahaye should do some actual research into Christian history rather than spit his biased drivel into ridiculous books such as this.
Rating: Summary: Cry Havoc And Let Slip The Dogs Of War! Review: Yes, The Bible mentions a rapture but does it say when? Or have we merely assumed because we do not want to suffer through it that it happens at the very beginning of the tribulation? I do not know when it happens, Therefore I will not assume one way or the other. Yes, it very well could be at the beginning. But it could also be in the middle or at the very end. We simply do not know. Whatever the case I intend to stand for Jesus until my dying day. "Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war!". Let us put on the Armour of God, Use His Shield, Draw His two-edged Sword and fight the good fight. We are God's Army and we are fighting a war that we cannot see with human eyes. Jesus said we are to store up treasures in Heaven where we will never lose them, In other words, Let's all do God's Will and do It because we love Him. The truth never changes. We can believe whatever we want to believe but the truth will not change to suit our imaginations. There is only one God and only one correct interpretation of what God is. Let us all try to find that. Let us not put words into God's mouth that we can't back up in the Book. Technically there shouldn't be any denominations either but we know satan. Divide and conquer. Cheers.
