You will also learn how to be victorious today and how to be one of God¿s faithful in the midst of the great events destined to shake this planet in the years ahead.

The impact of The Late Great Planet Earth cannot be overstated. The New York Times called it the "no. 1 non-fiction bestseller of the decade." For Christians and non-Christians of the 1970s, Hal Lindsey's blockbuster served as a wake-up call on events soon to come and events already unfolding -- all leading up to the greatest event of all: the return of Jesus Christ. The years since have confirmed Lindsey's insights into what biblical prophecy says about the times we live in. Whether you're a church-going believer or someone who wouldn't darken the door of a Christian institution, the Bible has much to tell you about the imminent future of this planet. In the midst of an out-of-control generation, it reveals a grand design that's unfolding exactly according to plan. The rebirth of Israel. The threat of war in the Middle East. An increase in natural catastrophes. The revival of Satanism and witchcraft. These and other signs, foreseen by prophets from Moses to Jesus, portend the coming of an antichrist . . . of a war which will bring humanity to the brink of destruction . . . and of incredible deliverance for a desperate, dying planet.

This groundbreaking walk through Scripture by former physician and carpenter Dr. Matthew Sleeth makes the convincing case that trees reveal more about God and faith than you ever imagined. “Christians looking to reconnect to the natural world will relish Sleeth’s passionate call to Christian stewardship of the Earth.”—Publishers Weekly Fifteen years ago, Matthew Sleeth believed that science and logic held the answers to everything. But when tragedy struck, he opened the Bible for the first time and was surprised to find that God chose to tell the gospel story through a trail of trees. There’s a tree on the first page of Genesis, in the first psalm, on the first page of the New Testament, and on the last page of Revelation. The Bible’s wisdom is referred to as a tree of life. Every major biblical character and every major theological event has a tree marking the spot. A tree was the only thing that could kill Jesus—and the only thing Jesus ever harmed. Reforesting Faith is the rare book that builds bridges by connecting those who love the Creator with creation and those who love creation with the Creator. Join Dr. Sleeth as he explores the wonders of life, death, and rebirth through the trail of trees in Scripture. Once you discover the hidden language of trees, your walk through the woods—and through Scripture—will never be the same.

Earthquakes, floods, forest fires, famine, pestilence, disease, volcanos, tsunamis, terrorism, violence, economic uncertainty, racial and ethnic turmoil, war - What does it all mean? What is the earth coming to? People are afraid and wondering what the future might hold. It seems there is no security anymore. Upon finishing this book, the reader will have the inside story regarding what the future really holds for mankind.

"Will the earth end with a bang or a whimper?" "Is there any hope for a brighter future?" This book is written from a unique perspective - the perspective of a layman who has been fascinated with Biblical prophecy for years. All the points made are amply supported from Scripture alone. His desire is to share a different viewpoint which will awaken readers to study and think for themselves. In years gone by many people put their hope and confidence in God, but it seems now in the public square no one even thinks or cares about God. But, awake! God is still in control and He knows the end from the beginning! He created this earth, and He has not just left it to run on its own. He is intimately concerned about everything that happens, and He has grand plans for it. Read this book and find out what they are! The book recounts the great themes of the Bible - themes of faith, the nature of God and the Trinity, Christ in the Old Testament, Christ's atoning sacrifice on the cross and His resurrection bringing the promise of salvation to all mankind. Difficult subjects are addressed such as what happens when a person dies and the Antichrist, as well as the signs of the end of the world, the final judgments of God on unrepentant humanity as vividly portrayed in Revelation, and the last great battle when Jesus Christ is victorious over the Devil. See how the prophecies of Daniel, Ezekiel, Joel and Zechariah in the Old Testament dovetail perfectly with what Christ foretold and what John was shown in Revelation. The prophecies of the end of the age are more exciting than any thriller developed for TV or movies! Extremely difficult times are coming! This book will teach the reader how to survive the times of tribulation. Learn how a loving God will bring destruction upon the inhabitants of the earth. He has been pleading for millennia for His creatures to commit themselves to Him but they would not. Evil has increased to the point where God, in His mercy must also display His justice and vengeance and bring an end to it all. It is a "strange act" for this God of love, but He has no choice. The inhabitants of earth have not only been destroying themselves, but they have destroyed the earth. God must intervene according to His appointed time which is coming soon! He can no longer bear to see His creation suffering. The destruction on earth is not the end of the story. The world will not just be destroyed and forgotten. There is wonderful hope and good news! Evil will not have the last word! God will have it! King Jesus, the Messiah, is coming back to this earth again, not as a tiny, helpless baby, but as a warrior King. He will rule and His believers will reign with Him for eternity. There will be new heavens and a new earth more glorious than anyone could ever imagine. There will be no more death, sorrow, pain or crying. Are you prepared for His coming?

A journey for the greater truths and awareness.
