Product Description
Daniel prophesied the rise of global government in your future

A number of prophets had a glimpse of the future, but God gave only one prophet a precise calendar of the end-times events that will affect the current generation.

Writing more than 2,500 years ago, Daniel described a series of cataclysmic events and the signs that will precede the end times. According to prophecy expert Grant R. Jeffrey, many of the signs that Daniel pointed to are visible in our world today.

Daniel’s vision reveals startling details about the identity of the coming Antichrist, his political career, his death, and his Satanic resurrection. After completing an exhaustive study of Daniel’s prophecies, Dr. Jeffrey presents a detailed description of the Antichrist’s rise as world dictator, the mark of the beast, and the political maneuvering that will set the stage for global government. In light of the Hebrew calendar and the cycle of Jewish festivals, Dr. Jeffrey uncovered precise dates for major apocalyptic events, including a timeline for the Antichrist’s rise to power, the major events of the Tribulation, and the timing of the Battle of Armageddon.

God allowed Daniel to see the world we will soon live in as we approach the time for the return of the Messiah. Now learn exactly what Daniel knew.

Do you know what to watch for...
Are you curious about the days leading up to the Apocalypse? Renowned Grant R. Jeffrey shares his insights and vast knowledge in his latest book concerning end time prophecy. God spoke to us through many Old Testament prophets, specifically Daniel. By unlocking prophesies, we discover information concerning the identity of the Antichrist. Jeffrey shares the timeline of end time's events.
As a Christian, we have read about and been told about Christ return. Grant R. Jeffrey reminds us of the coming events and sheds light on what will happen. I find this book a call to walk closer with my Lord and Savior. While all of these events sound frightening, those sealed in Christ need not worry.
Jeffrey writes with great authority. He presents his information in a logical, concise manner. His style is very easy to understand. I highly recommend this book to everyone.

4.0 out of 5 stars Most interesting read, November 6, 2008

By	armchairinterviews.com (Minnesota) - See all my reviews

It has been declared around the world that it is the end times and often if you happen to catch a television preacher, you can bet that he will say at least once that it is the last days. But what exactly does that mean? Renowned author and prophecy expert, Grant Jeffrey, tells us exactly what it means in his new book. Citing Biblical verses and prophecies he provides a clear timeline about where we are with regards to prophecy and what to expect next.

The book is divided into two main sections.

--One deals with Daniel and his history.
--The second part deals with the prophecy and how it pertains to our lives today.

In a world of uncertainty and fear, especially with the way the economy is, it is nice to know what next events are in the future. At least that is the way I felt when I read this book. The author gives approximate dates about future events that would have a major impact on society. My favorite part of the book is the fact that Jeffrey gives information about the background and key features of the antichrist. I have always wondered about this, and after reading this book, it was made extremely clear.

I especially liked the fact that Jeffrey goes out of his way to give a history of Daniel and his background. Hence, I believe that those not well-versed in the Bible will also find this book helpful since they won't have to worry about the authenticity and credibility of Daniel.

Even if you don't practice or put much stock in Christianity, there is no harm in knowing someone's thoughts on what the future might hold. After all there is a statistical probability that he might be right!

This book is highly recommended and is a definite must read for Christians since it will cement your faith and strengthen your beliefs.

Armchair Interviews agrees.

5.0 out of 5 stars Countdown To Apocalypse, October 30, 2008

By	Barbara Warren - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

I've always loved the book of Daniel, and Countdown To Apocalypse is a fascinating study of the prophecies contained there. God has warned us that someday the world as we know it will pass away. Jesus said that no man knew the day or the hour, only God, but through His chosen prophets He has revealed information that shed light on His plans. In Countdown To Apocalypse Grant R. Jeffery lists the prophecies that have already come to pass, and the ones yet to happen. He believes the end of the age will occur in our lifetime, and he argues his case well. Daniel is one of the Bible's most prominant prophets, and this book makes fascinating reading. It belongs on the bookshelf of any reader interested in prophecy. Recommended.
