From the Back Cover

27 percent of the Bible is devoted to prophecy. But most of us don’t focus 27 percent of our personal Bible study on prophecy. Why? We’re confused. Or intimidated. Or both. This book takes away the mystery—and the intimidation. From the creators of the Left Behind series—Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins—comes a truly astonishing book. User-friendly for the layperson. Remarkably complete for the scholar. Updated and Expanded. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

More About the Author

Dr. Tim LaHaye (www.timlahaye.com), who conceived the idea of fictionalizing an account of the Rapture and the Tribulation, is a noted author, minister, and nationally recognized speaker on Bible prophecy. He is the founder of both Tim LaHaye Ministries and The PreTrib Research Center. He also recently cofounded the Tim LaHaye School of Prophecy at Liberty University. Presently Dr. LaHaye speaks at many Bible prophecy conferences in the U.S. and Canada, where his current prophecy books are very popular.

Dr. LaHaye holds a doctor of ministry degree from Western Theological Seminary and a doctor of literature degree from Liberty University. For 25 years he pastored one of the nation's outstanding churches in San Diego, which grew to three locations. It was during that time that he founded two accredited Christian high schools, a Christian school system of ten schools, and San Diego Christian College (formerly known as Christian Heritage College).

Dr. LaHaye has written over 50 non-fiction books and co-authored 25 fiction books, many of which have been translated into 34 languages. He has written books on a wide variety of subjects, such as family life, temperaments, and Bible prophecy. His most popular fiction works, the Left Behind series, written with Jerry B. Jenkins, continue to appear on the best-seller lists of the Christian Booksellers Association, "Publishers Weekly," the "Wall Street Journal," "USA Today," and the "New York Times."

Another popular series by LaHaye and Jenkins is The Jesus Chronicles. This four-book fiction series gives readers a rich first century experience as John, Mark, Luke, and Matthew recount thrilling accounts of the life of Jesus. Dr. LaHaye is co-author of another fiction series, Babylon Rising. Each of the four titles in this series have debuted in the top 10 on the New York Times best seller list. These are suspense thrillers with thought-provoking messages.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best End Times Book I've Read, January 3, 2000

This review is from: Are We Living in the End Times? (Hardcover)

After reading all of the Left Behind Series, I found this book at a friend's house and decided to read up on my Bible prophecy. Revelations is such a hard thing to understand that this book gave me an opportunity to understand where in the Bible all the info for the LB series comes from. The information also cleared up numerous questions that I had about the end times. I thoroughly recommend it to anyone who wants a deeper knowledge of Bible prophecy and its applications to our Christian walk and our world today.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful Witnessing Tool, January 8, 2000

This review is from: Are We Living in the End Times? (Hardcover)

As a historian and a bit of a student of prophecy, while also maintaining a bit of "taking things with a grain of salt"...I had been a bit standoffish toward prophecy writings for awhile...then the Left Behind series came about ...and I questioned myself and my faith, and I was restored with realizations about my life...even as a "so called Christian"...now, I must say that this book changed me even more... making me realize how much trouble the world is... how many antichrists there are in the church, in government, in the world at large... and quite possibly that one main AntiChrist is out there...

I was so startled by reading this book, I bought almost all my coworkers a copy...and gave out tapes of this book to the rest...

READ THIS BOOK...

This review is from: Are We Living in the End Times? (Hardcover)

This book is designed especially for readers of the Left Behind series. It is a great book for those who accepted Jesus as a result of the books and want to find out more about Biblical prophecy. For those who want to start studying prophecy and have never read Left Behind this book is also a great springboard into the topic and lays a good foundation for further study. Prepare to be motivated!
