Left Behind (Left Behind #1)

Summary: This book had me making time to finish it.
Review: From my perspective of one who has been fascinated by prophesy for most of my life, this book easily transitions from the ancient texts of the Bible to modern societal possibilities. All the parts fit together nicely. It probably will never be mandatory reading for any educational facility financed by tax dollars. What are we afraid of

Rating:
Summary: Wow!
Review: I could not put this book down and did not want it to end. A great story with engaging characters and wonderful dialogue. The authors have taken the relatively complicated and obscure subject of Biblical prophecy and created world that the reader easily pictures himself/herself in

Rating:
Summary: Great book - makes you think!
Review: Wonder what the last days or years of man on earth might be like? This book is a great rendition of how things might be from a Christian viewpoint, based on Biblical prophecy! For those who know anything about what the Bible says about the end times, these authors make the biblical prophecies come alive in the context of today's world. For those who don't know or understand much from the Bible, this book is sure to provoke deeper thought and questions. However, even if you don't care about any of that - this is a great read on its own merits! My only complaint is that it ended too soon - now I'm anxious for the sequel to arrive on my doorstep! Don't miss it

Summary: DEEPLY MOVING BOOK THAT MUST BE READ BY ALL.
Review: I HAVE YET TO READ A BOOK THAT MADE ME FEEL SO AWARE OF CHRIST. I JUST FINSHED TRIBULATION FORCE AND IT ACTULLY HAD ME READING WITH TEARS RUNNING DOWN MY FACE. THESE TWO BOOKS ARE WONDERFUL, AND I AM PASSING THEM TO ALL I CAN GET TO READ THEM. I TELL THEM ONCE YOU START YOU WILL NOT STOP TILL THE END. MY TWO TEEN-AGE DAUGHTERS READ THEM AT MY PERSISTENCE AND THEY LOVED THE STORY AND THE ALL IMPORTANT MESSAGE THAT THEY CARRY. CHRIST IS KNOCKING AND WE MUST BE READY TO ANSWER THE DOOR. THANK YOU FOR THESE BOOKS, THEY DEEPLY TOUCHED ME. GOD BLESS, DEBBIE RAMIREZ P.S/ ANYTHING NEW TO LOOK FORWARD TOO

Summary: Plan to do nothing but read when you open the book .
Review: I haven't read anything this compelling or convicting in the way of a novel since the first Perretti book. The authors created characters that became so real I felt I was also in these nailbiting situations with them.The suspense was palpable. Hang on to your hats when you start with the first of this trilogy

Summary: This is a riveting, "Can't put it down" kind of book.
Review: I was spellbound, reading this book. I had just finished a study of the Bible's Book of Revelation, and Left Behind enabled me to relate the Revelation more easily to our world today. The book is thought-provoking, encouraging, and full of hope. This, or something similar, could happen at any moment! I'm inspired to be willing to work at being ready. I'm definitely recommending that this book be read. My next step is to read the sequel, The Tribulation Force

Summary: Outstanding, Must Reading for Serious Bible Students
Review: Any serious student of the Bible, Old or New Testament must read this book. It is a page- turner. You will not be able to put it down. If you know anything about the prophesies scattered throughout the 66 books of the Bible you will be amazed to see them come to life on the pages of this book. There is incredible attention to detail and fidelity to the scriptures in an up-to-date saga of destruction and renewal. The only book better for you this summer: The Tribulation Force. Bad news, the third book will not be out until Fall! I can't wait. . . guess I have no choice.

Summary: wir sollten uns korregieren lassen/don'tbe like the new paps
Review: ich war echt begeistert von "FINALE",weil es so klar zeigt, wie gedankenlos wir leben,und fuer alles irgendeine (unplausible, aber uns schmeichelnde oder verteidigende) erklaerung (er)finden.z.B.(ich glaube in finale 2) der neue papst der zu erklaeren versucht, warum der "alte" papst weg ist, und er selbst nicht! und auf was die "left behind, die zurueckgelassenen"sich alles ausdenken, nur um abwechslungsweise sich selbst oder ihren freunden eine rosigere zukunft auszumalen, und dabei auf den groessten luegner aller zeiten hereinfallen.einfach genial!so jetzt auf englisch!I was really exited when I read this book becaus it shows so painfully clear how uninterested we are in our futur but when something changes we can't even accept that WE were wrong. often we react like the "new"papst who trys to explain why the "old"papst disappears where this man of god is and why he hisself is here .I have to stop .I reallyliked this book and I hope you will excuse my bad English daniel

Summary: God is Demanding
Review: I read this book just after converting to Christianity. I can identify with many of the characters - from Steele's analytical approach to Barnes' "I thought I was good enough to be saved" theology. The separate path each character has taken to Christ is compelling and has been a great help in my own journey. God asks only that we acknowledge his love and it is amazing how difficult that can be. I thank Mr. LaHaye and Mr. Jenkins for stirring me and others.

Summary: I read it in less than 2 days!!
Review: As a Christian, this book just drew me in to another place. I'm glad I won't be here when the Tribulation happens!! It is so descriptive and intense that you find yourself involved with the characters and build these images in your mind of what they look like and where they live - - it was like watching a movie in your head!! I felt fear and happiness and excitement all at the same time!! If you're not a believer, you'll think twice after reading this and the follow-up, Tribulation Force. I'm looking forward to the next installment!
