To understand the end, you must understand the beginning. Dr. Morris shows how Creation is tied to the Second Coming. The Bible's prophetic writers give key "signs" of the return of Christ. The author shows how each "sign" is an outgrowth of evolutionary humanism or pantheism. God's plan for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ began in the book of Genesis. The political upheavel in the Middle East, the New-Age movement, and the call for a one-world government were all foretold in God's Word.

This review is from: Creation and the Second Coming (Paperback)
It is a refreshing change to see creationists coming up with sensible and logical commentary that is scientifically sound, yet almost irrefutable. I very much enjoyed this book. Inspiring especially for those of us surrounded with evolutionists or atheists that choose to believe almost anything else but creation. A good read as is anything by Morris. Dane Thomas

Truly couldn't put it down!,
This review is from: Creation and the Second Coming (Paperback)
This weekend I finished reading Henry M. Morris' Creation and the Second Coming. Tim LaHaye is quoted on the back cover saying that he couldn't put this book down... "yeah, right," I thought as I started this 191 page book. I was looking forward to reading it, and it did look interesting, but I was pretty sure I'd be able to put it down.
Wrong. I've been on a bit of a prophecy kick lately, and I also love creation science and teachers who can tie the big picture of the Bible together in an understandable way. This book covered all of those bases, and did it in a very conversational and understandable manner! Morris is well known in creation science circles as the author of the classic The Genesis Flood, and he has also written a commentary on the book of Revelation. Combine these two areas of personal study and expertise, and it makes Creation and the Second Coming a unique and insightful read. As the book states, in order to understand the end, we must understand the beginning. With this premise, Morris weaves together an argument for Christ's imminent return based on a vast overview of Biblical prophecy, discusses "current" world events in light of prophecy (this book was published in 1991, so these sections are dated but still insightful), and gives his unique perspective on what Christ's millennial kingdom and New Jerusalem may be like. I read this book in two days, highlighting and marking frequently as I went... and I had many "aha!" and "interesting..." moments along the way! One of the parts of this book that I most enjoyed was Morris' look, from a Christian scientific perspective, at how the creation was groaning under the curse, and how it very well might be restored to antediluvian (pre-flood) state for the millenial kingdom. He uses Scripture and his scientific understanding of the pre-flood world to paint a very fascinating picture. Another unique perspective Morris had that I have not read elsewhere is how he connects evolutionary thought, both atheistic and pantheistic, back to Nimrod, the tower of Babel, and ultimately Babylon! His overall understanding of world religions and worldviews is intriguing, even if not all readers will agree with him! (And I am quite certain that not all would!) Even as he discusses world events, the future Antichrist, the geological changes that the earth might undergo through the tribulation, etc, Morris is quick to state that we cannot be dogmatic and that prophecy is notoriously difficult to completely and accurately understand before the events take place. His humility and yet willingness to "intelligently speculate" were much appreciated by this reader! One comment I would make is that this book contains a lot of brief references to prophecies found throughout the Scriptures. If you are somewhat new to learning end-times prophecy, this book would probably not be the best one to start with. Also, the fact that it was written in 1991 makes it quite dated when discussing "current" events in the middle east. Much has been happening in recent years that is pivotal to discussing the signs of Christ's coming. If you are interested in prophecy and creation science, this book has your name all over it!!

A Refreshing Read!,
This review is from: Creation and the Second Coming (Paperback)
Dr. Henry Morris, who was an esteemed expert and author on creationism, connected the facts of creation from Genesis with the prophecies that point to the second coming of Christ in his book "Creation and the Second Coming." Dr. Morris highlights the importance of looking at scripture as a whole in order to more fully grasp and appreciate the events that are leading to Christ's return.
Like other doctrinally-sound books on end times prophecy, Dr. Morris explained the specific events that are to happen before the triumphal return of Christ. Unlike the aforementioned types of books, Dr. Morris linked these prophetic truths to the very beginning of creation and explains that God has a plan that was put into motion at the very beginning of time. I found "Creation and the Second Coming" not only an insanely-interesting read, but an important book to pass on to other Christians. Prophecy makes more sense when understood within the context of God's grand scheme. It's both refreshing and reassuring!
