Summary: IT TAKES THE HOLY SPIRIT FROM THE FATHER TO UNDERSTAND
Review: I have read this book twice and have a hardcover and a paperback. The book is Prophesy through historical and (mostly) biblical accounts. IT MAKE ABSOLUTE SENSE! It is a step by step study. This information has been brought to light thoughout the 16th century and was apposed by the Catholic Church. It answers the question of where did the nations we know today come from? Who are they? And what is prophesied for them? The Word of God has already answered these questions IN THE BIBLE. Herbert Armstrong simpley points them out with this book. There are many other books I have read following the same truths that are written before Herbert was born! Which I believe was late in the 18th century.

Summary: Will make you question your beliefs, and rightly so.
Review: The simple fact that Jesus Christ was a Jew is disturbing to many and the fact that this book makes claims concernig the present-day nations of Israel being predominantly white English-speaking peoples will ,I am sure , startle and anger many people. God makes his way known through scripture and expects us to do the work of searching his word.Old Testament as well as New.This book will shake the foundations of your faith and well it should.Did not Saul of Tarsus have his Faith shaken.I am sure it wasn't easy for him to think outside of the box. People who feel that this book puts other races down has never read their Old Testament.Israel was to be a blessing for the other nations of the world. Remember,the Old Testament is the New Testament concealed and the New Testament is The Old Testament revealed. Happy reading!

Summary: Insightful....witness AND a warning
Review: There have been many great men / women who achieved many great things in their lifetime while being "a high-school dropout". I will not list them but their names would be immediately recognizable. Do the study yourself if truly interested. The late Mr. Herbert Armstrong, along with many split-offs of the now dead back-to-basics church that used to be his home, and his still living son recognize the FACTS of what this book explains. They CONSISTENTLY proclaimed for 50+ years prophecies that can be seen coming to pass NOW. How can one say that Germany would rise again while WW2 is STILL being waged in 1944/45? How can one say that East Germany would come from behind the "iron curtain" and reunited DECADES before it happened? How can one say that Russia or the USA is NOT the prophesied "beast" power and prove it? There is coming in the heart of Europe a great [danger] to the USA, Britain, and other nations. This book helps explain this in the light of ancient biblical prophecies.The prophecies this book helps to explain in light of bible prophecy concerning the "lost tribes of Israel" can be seen coming to pass today.
The understanding of biblical prophecy helps you to understand the path of trends and conditions for nations.
God does not change his ways. Nations have and will be treated the same as they were anciently. They rise and fall according to His will.
It is GOOD that Herbert Armstrong brought together "much of this book from another"...author(s)... "earlier publication".
Men wrote the books of the Bible, but God is the author, editor, preserver, and revealer.
These TRUTHS are not new. They are not the word of Armstrong, a "megalomaniac". God's select few kept his truths throughout the centuries.
God promised PHYSICAL as well as spiritual blessings to the nations (plural) of Jacob (also known as Israel). Keep this in mind when reading this or similar book on this subject.
The critics of the 1st century church tried to discredit it. They almost succeeded through subtle lies and twisting of the truth.
This book reveals things that give a witness and a warning to those nations whom God has foretold would receive a "spanking" if they continue in disobedience.
