Left Behind (Left Behind #1)

Summary: Potential was very near fully achieved, good read.
Review: Being a very critical reader, I didn't think much of it when a million people told me just how awesome this book was. I never find it 'just' to hear other peoples reactions and make them my own, so I had to find out for myself. This book has a little for everyone. It has some great mysterious leads, as well as some action oriented grisham/crichton-type scenes. Overall the book was good. In some places the book seems, well, not well articulately. But these small instances can easily be overlooked to make this book very enjoyable. I like it very much, and I look forward to reading the following chapters to this series.

Summary: This book will make you truely believe in the Bible!
Review: This book had me searching things in the Bible just to see how accurate it is. This book shows you the future in a way you can understand it. This is one of the best series I have ever read. It keeps you on the edge of your seat. I could not wait to get home from work to read it everyday.

Summary: I am hungry for so much more, life will never be the same!
Review: Never have I felt so informed. This has made me aware of my own humanity. It has humbled me beyond words. I have never longed to read so much so fast before. Additionally, I have never thirsted for Christ in this way before. When seeking to be entertained, I found an entirely new outlook. The overwhelming emotions of fear and then hope reach a level within me that I have never before discovered. I am so in awe that the Lord finds ways to reach those willing. Thank You, Tim Lahaye for being his vessel in this way.

Summary: This book may change the way you feel about religion
Review: I just finished the first book of the series and it really got me thinking. I have never been a religious person and this book has challenged me in a way. I find myself wanting to read the bible and, most importantly, UNDERSTAND it. I hope the rest of the series lives up to this first one.

Summary: Excellent Book
Review: I found it this to be a very thought provoking book. It really makes you think about what will take place when the rapture does happen. The story caused me to take a good look at myself to determine if I am ready for Jesus to come back for his church. I would recommend christian and nonchristain to read the book.

Rating:
Summary: Intriguing.
Review: Left Behind is a thought-provoking novel about the rapture and it's potential aftermath. I couldn't put the book down, even though parts of it were a little hard to accept as plausible. But a very worthwhile book to read, the only other book I've read in recent months comparable to it in captivating me for hours on end was Rustad's The Triumph and the Glory, the opening book of another intriguing series of novels about epic events.

Summary: A thief in the night.......
Review: I don't think that Revalation was written for people today in my opinion it was written for post-Rapture people only to warn them about what is next to come. We as Christians should look forward to the rapture, which I think we do. Now this series makes it seem like the rapture is something thats going to happen in our life time... Good! The prophicies mention a one world currancy well it's begining look closely at whats happening in Europe with their "Euro" currancy. I also know beyond a shadow of a doubt that if any Christian fears that they might not be taken away when Jesus Christ comes to Rapture his church, they need to do some soul searching...quick. There is also a couple of other issues at hand. One is how literaly those who have accepted salvation must take the Bible... their are thousands of verses that say that the Bible is God Breathed. Next is the issue of the End Of The World. Well the rapture is not the end of the world yet the first step in a new one. And finally the date... well Christ tells us that he will come like a thief in the night and basically saying that no one will know so I tell you this..." anyone who thinks they know the last day of the world is obviosly wrong." Be aware and don't be left behind.
