Product Description

The Past, Present, and Future—Exposed

The events wracking the Middle East today are confusing to even the most avid news buff. Now all the answers to your questions are offered in just one resource. Divided into five main sections, Iran: The Coming Crisis contains the most up-to-date, thorough information available and is complete with maps, charts, and timelines for visual assistance. Iran’s past, present, and future are exposed—the country’s quest for nuclear weapons and support of Palestinian terror groups, its ability to “play the oil card,” and Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s apocalyptic beliefs that motivate his actions. You’ll discover the truth about today’s events, how they relate to Bible prophecy, and what the Bible clearly describes is yet to come. It’s a crisis unlike any the world has ever faced.

Are We Headed for a Nuclear Jihad?

“ Israel must be wiped off the map,” Iran president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said it himself. He has denied the Holocaust, and his actions are motivated by a dangerous apocalyptic view of Islam. Meanwhile, Islamic extremists are in hot pursuit of nuclear weapons as they stand as gatekeepers to the Persian Gulf oil flow. Closer to home, President Bush has stated that the greatest threat to America is nuclear terrorism.

In a prophecy written over 2,500 years ago, Ezekiel 38-39 foretells Iran ’s future. Iran , Russia , and other Islamic nations will invade Israel in the end times. Today, the connection between Iran and Russia only grows. How close is this invasion?

What will happen?

Will America survive?

Will the world?

Mark Hitchcock , an expert in Bible prophecy, exposes Iran ’s past, present, and future with striking clarity. Find maps, charts, and answers to your every question inside.



“I highly recommend Mark as a faithful guide to understanding current events in light of God’s wonderful plan of prophecy.”

Tim LaHaye

Pastor and bestselling author

Story Behind the Book

There seems to be no turning back from the looming crisis in the Middle East. The Islamic and political rulers of Iran are set in their ideology by principle. The West and Israel are headed for some sort of confrontation economically, socially, and likely militarily. Mark Hitchcock ’s background as a lawyer, pastor, and expert in Bible prophecy suits him perfectly as a Christian authority on the subject. Timing is critical, and his new book will release as more and more everyday people—Christians and non-Christians alike—realize the gravity of world events and question how they relate to Bible prophecy.


About the Author

Mark Hitchcock graduated from law school in 1984 and worked for a judge at the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals for four years. After a clear call to full time ministry, he attended Dallas Theological Seminary and graduated in 1991. Since that time he has served as senior pastor of Faith Bible Church in Edmond, Oklahoma, which has an average Sunday attendance of one thousand. He completed his PhD at DTS in January 2006. He has authored fourteen books related to end time Bible prophecy, and served as contributing editor for the Left Behind Prophecy Club for three years. Mark and his wife, Cheryl, live in Edmond, Oklahoma with their two sons.

3.0 out of 5 stars Too Much Iranian Details, August 31, 2006
Enough already about the madman leader of Iran and his nuclear intentions and his rantings about obliterating Israel from the face of the earth. Hitchcock spends too time and effort focusing on yesterday's and today's headlines. Anyone with an ounce of sense and any degree of rationality knows that Ahmadinejad and his Islamic fanatical followers are rushing the world headlong down the path of universal annihilation.

The thrust of his book should have been on the role of Iran and its anti-semitic cohorts, namely Russia and most of the Middle East, in prophetic endtimes. Hitchcock does get around to it eventually but not until he has exhausted the readers patience with what has been and continues to be news concerning Iran's diabolic designs. He could have gotten to Ezekiel 38&39,as it relates to Iran, much sooner than all the rehashed verbiage that preceded it.

Next time, Mr. Hitchcock, get to the point. John Hagee's "Jerusalem Countdown" does a much better job of doing just that.

2.0 out of 5 stars Off base and lacking., November 20, 2007
By Kevin M Quigg (Carol Stream, Illinois United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
It is obvious that North Korea, Iran, and Pakistan having the bomb is dangerous. I believe all strategists know that these unstable regimes might be tempted to blow the planet up if they are going down the drain. Hitchcock tries to bring Bible readings as a justification for showing the end of the world. I believe any philosophy colored by religious fundamentalism causes problems in the world. Hitchcock might have a PhD in religion, but I feel he does not understand the Mideast enough to write a valid, scholarly work that would make strategists understand the problem of nuclear weapons better. This is a book written stating the undesireability of Iran getting nuclear weapons with some scripture thrown in.

This is not a well thought out book. There are better books out there to understand the crisis.

4.0 out of 5 stars An Important Book to Read , July 7, 2006
Mark Hitchcock's book, Iran: The Coming Crisis, is an important book to be read even if you are not fully interested (which you should be, if you are a Christian) in prophecy. Even if you are not fully interested in eschatology, the book holds a wealth of information involving what is going on in the Middle East by way of Radical Islamics right at this very moment. The heart of the growing threat toward Israel and toward the Western world is that of Iran. Iran's focus in life is to bring forth a jihad against anyone and any nation that strives to oppose Iran's worldview of Islamic totalitarianism. The more we sit back and think that tomorrow will be a better day in the Middle East, as many a liberal minded person might suspect (these are the people that actually believe that the base person is good, which is shown to be false if you believe and trust the Bible that is Yahweh's words through both Testaments), the closer we get to the point where Iran will practically point a bomb toward our doorstep and toward Israel's doorstep (since radical Islam believes that Zion and the United States are together Satan). We must know and we must be diligent when dealing with such a nation as Iran because it holds its claws in the very lifeblood of much of the Middle East. This is not paranoia nor is this thought based upon trying to find prophecy under every rock, so to speak, this is cold hard fact--Iran will if not already has a nuclear arsenal that will be used against anyone and everyone they hate based upon their radical Islamic desire for extermination of all Christians and Jews. Again, this book is an important eye opener toward anyone who wants to see the truth, the truth at how Iran and those countries that do indeed support Iran (such as North Korea who has sold much of their own products to Iran, and we all have witnessed over the past day or two the "testing" of North Korea's missile system) want nothing less than world domination. Whether you are a preMill like myself, or an Amill, or a PostMill, you must realize that there is threat coming out way. We cannot hide our heads under rocks, nor should we.
