Summary: The best series of books I have ever read. Biblical Truths!
Review: I found the Left Behinds series to be captivating and definately has made me more aware of where my heart needs to be in the end times. I believe we are close. There is great detail in Left Behind down to anything that is man made will be left behind, for example contact lenses, fillings in your teeth and even screws or pins holding your bones together. What really fascinated me was the biblical truth in the books. I believe in pre-tribulation. I can't imagine a loving God would leave His children on earth to endure any part of the tribulation. I believe that times are short and this has made me more aware of it and that we really need to be ready, because you really don't want to be Left Behind.... There is great truth in these books.

Summary: An edge-of-your-seat thrill ride
Review: This book keeps the reader on the edge of their seat. If I had not been a Christian before, this book would have scared me into it. It takes what's in the bible about the rapture and makes it real to the reader. I couldn't put it down.

Summary: I am thankful that I have chosen to walk with God!!
Review: As a christian, I felt that this book was a very well written story of how the rapture will take place. It will happen in a "blink of an eye" and no matter where you are or what you are doing, those who have chosen to accept Christ will be gone.And unfortunately, those who refuse or are unable to confess that there is a God and that he died on the cross for their sins, will be "left behind". What scary scary days those will be. I would be frightened to live in those days. If we think this world is bad now, just wait until all of the christians are gone and Satan has full control of this place! I would highly recommend that every christian get this book in to the hands of loved ones. I don't want any of my loved ones to be "left behind".

Summary: Too much praise and too much slanted criticism
Review: I have just completed the first three books in this series as well. After reading all the comments it seems the Christians loved this book because it has motivated them in their relationship with God, while the, I'm assuming, non-Christians criticize its simplicity and arrogance. Well, I think you are both right. I found myself driven to read these books quickly because they inspired me to pursue a closer relationship with God and to be more evangelical. At the same time, I recognized how contrived the story was and how stale the character development. However, I admire Mr. LaHaye and Mr. Jenkins for making an effort to present this truth in a non-academic form for those of us who have a hard time wading through Revelation. As for it being propaganda, it seems to me any material that espouses a complete belief is tagged such. Why should it bother anyone if God doesn't take them, if they don't want to belong to God?

Summary: As an evangelistic tract, this book FAILS.
Review: Sorry to burst your bubbles, but if you Christians expect us to be convinced by this book, think again. This book is little more than an attempt to scare people into religious faith, and in that regard, most street preachers are more persuasive than this book. Strip away all the hype, all the contrived plot devices, all the fantastic imaginings, and you are left with endless unanswered questions: Is belief in God to be predicated merely on personal, subjective experience, or must I wait for a cataclysmic "Independence Day" kind of event? How do you have any certainty as to the identity (or benevolence) of your God? How do you ascertain the authenticity and reliability of your Bible? I will not be browbeaten into believing this kind of empty propaganda. If the authors had written something more coherent and compelling, like Umberto Eco's The Name of the Rose, I might be more persuaded.

Summary: BELIEVABLE FICTIONALIZATION OF FUTURE HISTORY!
Review: What a rush to read something that matches my own pre-trib beliefs about the Rapture of the Church. I was fascinated with the simple text that mirrors scripture when it came to the actual disappearances. One second people were there...the next they weren't. Before writing this review I checked out those listed already and found it very interesting to read the few critical reviews that panned this book. The reviewer with a Doctorate of Divinity reminded me of Bruce in the book. Educational accomplishment means absolutely nothing when it comes to knowing the truth. Likewise, the reviewers who felt Christianity has too narrow a viewpoint don't seem to grasp the obvious fact that what we believe is what God said. It's not something we make up to feel good about ourselves. Just the opposite! We are grateful that a kind and loving God had/has mercy on us and provided a way for us to not be left behind. This book (series) is a wake-up call to all Christians to share the truth while there's still time to influence those who at this time would be left behind if the Rapture occurred today. Even so, Lord Jesus, come!

Summary: This book was awesome!!!!!!
Review: I loved "Left Behind" and I immediately got ahold of "Tribulation Force." Still waiting for "Nicolae" but I may not be able to wait until the library gets it!!! Can't wait until the last four and the movie comes out. These books are awesomely surreal. I'm thirteen years old, and it really, really made me think. Keep up the good work, you guys!!! And hurry with the last four, because some of us might not be around to read them.

Summary: Could not put it down-must read the next book in the series!
Review: Once I started reading this book, I could not put it down. I was thrilled to discover it is the first book in a seven book series. I had to buy the next two released books immediately! I am anxiously awaiting the August 98 release of the fourth book. I will be on the waiting list for this one. I tell everyone I see to read these books. Not only are they wonderfully entertaining to read, but they make you assess your life and faith. They have made me renew my efforts to see that the people I know and love wont be "Left Behind."

Summary: The one thing that turned my life around
Review: I read this amazing piece of work on one of the hardest parts of my christian walk. I say that anyone who believes that christ is the son of god should read this, and get spiritualy supported. I would like to thank the authors of this book for possibly saving my own soul. I cannot wait until the next one comes out END
