Book Description

Publication Date: October 3, 2007

LIVING IN THE TIMES OF THE SIGNS Bible Prophecy for the 21st Century We are living in exciting times. The present generation has witnessed the fulfillment of more prophetic signs than any generation in history; and no more significant sign has been fulfilled than the return of the Jews to the reestablished State of Israel. This book explains Bible prophecy as it applies to events unfolding in the 21st century. The foundations of our culture, our churches and our nation are being shaken by those who would have us all worship at the altar of the politically correct god. But the Lord calls His people to walk in love, obedience and faithfulness. FIND ANSWERS TO THESE QUESTIONS: What is Israel's place in end-time events? What is Islam's role in Bible prophecy? When and where will the Temple be rebuilt? How will the Israeli/Palestinian conflict be resolved? How close are we to a global religion and a global government? Does the Bible teach about the rapture and the tribulation? David R. Barnhart, pastor, evangelist and prophecy teacher, has made twenty-six trips to Israel and visited the sites of the seven churches of Revelation. For the past twenty-four years, he has served as the director of Abiding Word Ministries, an organization that promotes revival and reformation in the churches of America. The author has devoted his life to calling Christians back to the foundational truths of Scripture.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Explanation of End-Time Signs, November 27, 2008

This review is from: LIVING IN THE TIMES OF THE SIGNS (Paperback)

Some scoff about the soon return of Jesus Christ. This book provides evidence for both the novice and the more advanced student of bible prophecy.

The first half of the book is a review of the many signs in today's world that the Lord Himself gave on the Mount of Olives (Matthew 24 and Luke 21). The material is very good and presented at an understandable level for a person intrigued but not knowledgable about the topic. For family and friends, it is highly recommended.

The second half of the book is more advanced as Barnhart provides types and patterns from scripture that also point to the conclusion that time is short. He shows how the customs and practices of the Jewish marriage ceremony map perfectly in the timeline and sequencing of events of Christ's return and marriage to His bride (the Church). It is very exciting to know we will soon be in His care and love forever.

Many pages are spent on the seven churches from Revelation Chapters 2 and 3. Jesus Christ Himself spoke the words about these churches - a fact many don't know or overlook. These churches were actual churches with real pluses and minuses. But they are also predictive of church characteristics that would exist between Christ's ascension and his return. When one studies the final church (Laodicea), it fits perfectly with most of popular Christianity today- you know, the kind that uses just enough scripture to sound Christian but ignores all the difficult and politically incorrect teachings. (See Rick Warren, Joel Osteen, Robert Schuller for examples.)

The average person might feel overwhelmed by some of the "meat" of the second half of the book. But that does not downplay the excellent job done on the "basics" in the first half of the book.

This is a book with some meat to it but the average non-believer would not only understand it but have their appetite for truth whetted! I bought two, need three more.
