Great book

I thought this book was written very well, mixing biblical prophecy's with current events. I especially loved how the author had such zeal for Israel and it's people. One of the best books I have read in a long time as far as prophecy go's ( besides the Bible of course), and I really enjoyed his viewpoint.

Amused

I am always amused by reactions to end-time teaching. It's a volatile subject, especially if you believe that Christians will suffer. End-time theology is something I've tried to stay away from because there are so many "opinions" and though most disagree with each other, they all have convincing arguments. The LaHaye series has done much damage to lull the Christian community into their usual "nothing bad can happen to me" view. This book makes more sense than any I have ever read on the subject. If you believe in the rapture before tribulation, reread your Bible. God never takes us out. He brings us through. What I liked about this author is that (for me) he demystified Revelation by tying each scripture to an Old Testament scripture.

A book on prophecy to appreciate

I'd have to say this is one of the better books that are out there right now that deal with the End Times prophecies. While Tim LaHaye has some great books, such as his commentary on the Book of Jesus' Revelation, what I like about this book is that it deals with the prospects of the End Times through the eyes of Jewish believers in Christ Jesus who is the Lord and Savior, the way, the only way, to the Father. Such a concept as Messianic Jewish p.o.v. is missing in a lot of commentaries and explorations on Bible that you can pick up in the stores. The author explores the ideas of how what is going on in the Middle East, right now, shows the road that is being paved toward Christ Jesus' return. Any true Christian who desires to understand the last days should pick this book up and appreciate what Messianic Jews have to say about the End Times. Intrater examines the horrors of wars (seen and unseen) going on in the Middle East, circling around Israel, he also examines how the spirit of Babylon and the AntiChrist are coming to the front, along with the coming of the 144,000 Jewish believers who will spread the word after the Rapture occurs. Even if you end up disagreeing with a point or two by the author, you wont be sorry because it helps to understand how a Jewish believer feels toward what is going on in history as of right now and how it leads toward a designated future, designated by the Lord God through His revelations to us in Scripture.

The Context Of The Coming Conflict.

Written just before the outbreak of the recent Iraqi conflict, this is an excellent book that seeks to unravel the context surrounding the controversies and ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, from both a secular and Biblical perspective with considerable attention being given to the area of Biblical prophecy.The book declares that the second coming of Yeshua (Jesus Christ the Messiah) is connected with a battle over Jerusalem. A battle which the Bible predicts as involving an international coalition of nations attacking Israel, with the central issue being Jerusalem. (There was a time when some found it difficult to imagine such a coalition - indeed there was a time when some found it difficult to imagine the re-birth of the state of Israel.)The book proceeds to discuss how such a coalition of nations, from many different backgrounds of ethnicity, purpose and political origins could come together with one purpose. Such a possibility is explored with reference being the recent bloc of Islamic nations joining together with the liberal humanist nations of Europe and other regions in a plethora of anti-Israeli resolutions in the UN, especially over the Palestinian issue. A matter which appears to attract more unity and hostility against Israel as each day goes by. Terrorism and the so called "war against terrorism" being another issue described here in detail which serves to reinforce such an apparent agenda. Much sympathy & appeasement being shown to terrorist entities which profess their cause to often surround any perceived support for alleged Israeli occupation of Palestinian land and Jerusalem. The book citing Islamic claims and Palestinian anti-Israeli propaganda in the UN and the media as having already made Jerusalem the focal point of international conflict.Another matter addressed is the attempt by certain political/media sources to redefine terrorism, with the phrase that "one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter". Much of this now being used to downplay, or justify attacks upon Israelis. The book attempts to define terrorism as "acts of violence purposely targeted at innocent civilians for the purpose of gaining power or influence through widespread intimidation". Examples of this being cited as the attacks on the World Trade Centre and suicide bombings etc.. Concern is expressed in the manner which our media allows terrorists to be portrayed as "freedom fighters", allowing them to be negotiated with as diplomats instead of terrorists. Distortions repeated so often that the public eventually readily accept them as reality.One such example cited is that where Israeli troops entered Jenin to deal with the most dangerous Palestinian terrorist cell in the autonomous territories which was responsible for a series of terrorist attacks against Israel. The book describes the ensuing conflict as giving rise to a media propaganda campaign that openly aligned itself with the Palestinian claim that Israeli troops had brutally killed
