For once, I have completed a book that actually centers on the soul without preaching. The characters, circumstances, and twists make for a read that will not soon be forgotten. Jenkins and Lahaye have created a masterpiece series for an evolving world. Believers and Non-believers alike should read this book and follow with rest of the series.
Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: man o man Review: from the minute i began reading the book till the day i turned the last page i was spellbound to say the least. this book perfectly mixed together fictional story telling with biblical text, all while showing the reader ways to be a better Christian. this depending on who you are may or may not be a good thing, because a few times during the book, the emphasis on Christian values is used a bit too much and too heavily. Other than that, the book is a definite need to buy and is in my opinionn great material for a movie script. i just kept turnin the pages, in one word.....addictive.

People that don't know God need to read this book and maybe they will open their eyes to what the world will be like during the start of tribulation. I found this book to be very informative. Made me what to say an extra prayer for those that are unsaved. I can't wait to start on the next book.

There is no way to either put this book down or remain passive during your reading. It calls for a decision without ever asking for one. This book could as easily be pulled from the headlines of USA Today or off of a television news magazine as from its source, the Bible. The development of characters and the plot place you as one of the participants deciding your own fate.This book is one that can not be kept to one's self. After spending the last 12 years on airplanes and reading during much of my travel, no book has stimulated as much comment as Left Behind. I have yet to be on a flight where no one has read it. Do not miss out. On either the book or to the opportunities it calls you.
Rating: ![4 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-4-0.gif) Summary: Wonderful Fiction Review: I am not a religious person at all, but I still enjoy the book. The plot is intense and the characters are intriguing. I appreciate everyone's view of religion, but I do not respect those that claim only one is the 'right' one. I think religious institutions tend to limit the mind. This book is great for anyone who has an open mind and loves good story telling, but no matter what it's based on, it is fiction.
Rating: ![1 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-1-0.gif) Summary: Can I get an amen! Review: After hearing about the subject matter of this book, I was looking forward to reading the entire series. I changed my mind after about ten pages. The mood of the book was condescending and preachy. And the writing was the literary equivalent of USA Today. Skip this unless you're a mindless follower looking for validation.
Rating: ![1 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-1-0.gif) Summary: Easily one of the worst books I've ever read Review: This book no more made me believe in the Rapture than aFrisbee would make me believe in UFOs. The writing is more hackneyedand simplistic than most romance novels (the main character is named"Rayford Steele"!) and the plot is just a boilerplate retelling of the most paranoid Christian fantasies. I know people who say they love these books, and I really truly pity them.
Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: Life Changing Book Review: This EXCELLENT novel has changed a lot of my views about Christianity and religion in general. The characters are wonderful to follow and readers will gain a genuine interest in their lives.
Rating: ![3 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-3-0.gif) Summary: The series is rather tedious, less than credible Review: Face it folks, Jerry Furland and Glen Kleier beat this hands down. Especially Furland's "Transfer". But, I have to admit, I still managed to enjoy this series.
Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: a good antidote to moral/religious relativism Review: This book was lacking a bit in the quality of writing and characterization, but it is important in one way - it promotes the fact that though God is loving, there is only one pathway to salvation, and those who do not use that pathway will be damned. Modern american society promotes the dangerous and evil idea that as long as you aren't hurting anyone else, anything you do is a valid choice, and that all you need to get to heaven is to love other people. Wrong! Love is a major part of God's requirements of us, but accepting Jesus is the main requirement for getting into heaven. The path is narrow, not some freakish "we each need to define god and relate to god in our own way" relativistic nightmare.
