Rating: Summary: Excellent explanation of the Book Of Revelation! Review: For a book that has always been difficult to understand, this is an excellent breakdown of the Book Of Revelation. Particularily when you remind yourself that John could only write what he saw in terms of what he knew in those days. Of course he would not know the first thing about products, etc. as we know them today. Hal Lindsey always does an excellent job. I want all of my loved ones to read this book.
Rating: Summary: Excellent Biblical synopsis of the Good, the Bad & the Ugly Review: Hal does a excellent job interpetting global events against the prophecies in the Bible. There is a lot of direct quotes from the Bible in this book with the current events tranlations following those passages. His attention to the details of the events to come was very meticulous. He lays out the Biblical truth which CANNOT be ignored. Mark Raso....God Bless!
Rating: Summary: If you read only 1 book on prophesy make it this one Review: Hal Lindsey's finest work yet. I have read many prophesy books by a variety of authors and this one stands out as the best. Well laid out and easy to follow. Good history lesson about Israel too. Outstanding overview of end times biblical prophesy. I would recommend this book as a gift too. This will apeal to believer and non-believer alike.
Rating: Summary: "Profetic Correctness" Review: Having read all of Hal Lindseys Books...and being a beliver in what the book of Revelations is preparing us for,..I have to agree with Hals interrpertation of its verse/chapters. I believe he has his finger on the pulse of the world and its Millennium future..as we are all in the midst of the great change of historic events.
Rating: Summary: Better than Left Behind Review: Here's the Left Behind message in one book without the fictional characters and drawn out story line. Same insight, same general interpretation of the Book of Revelation. This book answers any last minute questions the believer has. It's hard to believe it was written in 1997; Hal has the year 2001 events right on que!
Rating: Summary: I haven't read this book yet, but I know of his writings Review: I am writing this only to balance what has been written against this book already. We won't know the hour or the day that Jesus comes ... because He comes like a thief in the night. But Jesus does give us direct clues to events that will precede his second coming, even tho we won't know the precise time of his coming, we will come to know an about time with our wisdom. As long as we are in tuned to the Lord at all times. Remember that we are all different, and we can't judge one another. If some come to Christ because they love puzzles and enjoy the challenge of finding God in those pieces they gather... then who are you to judge. I have been putting puzzle pieces together since since I was 18 and for 18 years... and believe me ...I see things that the average Christian doesn't. Yet the Christian that loves to worship sees things of Christ in the music she/he lifts in His name. The Christian that gives of his/her time to children sees Christ in the innocents of their faces. Don't put down another brother or sister in the Lord. We are to uplift one another. Gods word says to "have peace one with another." So I say to those that are thinking of purchasing this book. If your hearts desire is to piece clues together like puzzles ... then buy this book ... and as you read it ... remember it is from one brother that isn't perfect like God, but seeks Him in the gift of writing that he has been given. I am sure there are some truths within this book that I am interested in reading, but always put your own clues together by going to the truth of the words of the Bible. Since we all are short of the Glory of God don't take just one persons words as truth. Sincerely a Sister in the Lord Jesus .......
Rating: Summary: Excellent work, supported by scripture. Review: I could not put this book down. It is a reminder of what is really important in life. It made begin to re-focus my life.
Rating: Summary: How prepared are you to enter the Kingdom of God? Review: I have read many of the other people who have reviewed this book. Some I agree and others I do not. I believe this book to be an eye opener. Hal, by his own admission, is not telling you that he has all the answers. Nor is he trying to say that he is 100% correct. He is mearly trying to give you a better understanding of what the Book of Revelations means. I have read the Book of Revelations and understood very little. His interpretations are just that "interpretations." He allows you to make the decision to believe or not. Whether or not you agree with him is irrelevant to this book. After reading this book I walked away with one thought. "How prepared am I to enter the Kingdom of God?" This book scared me to some degree and filled me with great joy. His book brought me closer to my Lord and Savior. Right or wrong, I now have a new urgency and love for Jesus Christ. If a book can do that, the interpretations are irrelevant. I thank Hal for this. I believe you will enjoy this book. If for no other reasons it will wake you up to the world.
Rating: Summary: Excellent work. Great mix of research and faith Review: I have read this as well as other Hal Lindsey books. I have never found Hal to predict the day or the hour that the end times are coming. But I have found him to do his best to recognize the seasons. Just as the Bible says that we can do. I found this an excellent study in end time prophecies, and Hal explain that he is only a man. I especially like how he takes time to explain what is most important - accepting Jesus Christ as saviour.
Rating: Summary: Lindsey describes his interpretation of the Apocalypse Review: I have yet to finish this book, but so far I am very intrigued by it. It really helps explain what is usually regarded as the most mysterious book of the Bible. It also helps "decode" or decipher many of the difficult prophecies. I am still a relatively new reader of the Bible, and I plan on reading Revelation after fininshing the book. It is obviously Hal's interpretation of the Apocalypse, but I think it's a pretty good one.
