The final book of the Bible, Revelation prophesies the ultimate judgement of mankind in a series of allegorical visions, grisly images and numerological predictions. According to these, empires will fall, the "Beast" will be destroyed and Christ will rule a new Jerusalem. With an introduction by Will Self.

Now is the time to be ready. The Tribulation will not be pleasant, but a necessary test that determines each person's eternal destiny. Surviving the Tribulation gives evidence for the authenticity of the Bible, describes the clear signs of the times, and relates the events of the Rapture and the Tribulation, including the Antichrist and the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. It uniquely includes practical strategies for surviving natural and manmade disasters, as well as methods for going the distance emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually during the difficult times in which we live. This book is for anyone who is curious about the end times or wondering what exactly is going on in the world today. Survivalists, \"preppers,\" news junkies, Jews and Christians of all denominations, seekers of the Truth, and those in need of encouragement will benefit from this information.

This book is a fictional account of what it might be like to live through the Great Tribulation. In the first part of the book, eighteen different characters are introduced and then followed through the events of the Tribulation. This book accepts a basically literal interpretation of the various events. So it tries to give realistic scenarios for each situation. When reading the book of Revelation, one will read about seven seal judgments, seven trumpet judgments, and seven vial judgments. One will also read many seemingly unrelated events that are also happening. The way to understand the whole book is to realize that the Apostle John as author had been describing two timelines that had both been happening at the same time. In other words, the whole Tribulation lasts for seven years. The seal, trumpet, and vial judgments run consecutively and also last for seven years. The second timeline which presents more about the activities of the antichrist also runs for seven years. Therefore, the apostle had overlapped the two timelines into the one book of Revelation. The next thing that one might note in this text is that the eighteen people about which the story will be presented have been given some fairly ridiculous names. However, those names are symbolic because they have been used to describe the types of people. The hope in writing this book is that the Lord will be glorified by the study and the presentation of His Word. His Word is truth. So every attempt has been made to accurately and intelligently present those truths. An obvious goal is to encourage anyone that does not know the Lord as personal savior to come to Him by faith right away to be saved. He will receive anyone that comes to Him in the right spirit and with the right attitude. To further support that goal, Appendix A has been included at the end of the text to explain what it means to be truly saved. True biblical salvation occurs when one seeks the Lord with all of his or her heart, commits his or her life to Him, trusts in Him, and then enters into a personal relationship with Him. So if a person reads this whole text and fails to see the importance of giving oneself wholly unto the Lord, then an important goal will have been missed. Another goal is to encourage the saints of God to live each day for the Lord. It is their job to try to reach the lost people of this world for Christ so that no one will have to go through the Great Tribulation or an eternal separation from the Lord. That is a very ambitious goal. But it is well worth pursuing. A last goal of this text is to be both instructive and even a little bit entertaining. Because the saints of God will not go through the Great Tribulation, it can be interesting reading. But being able to understand what will happen after the rapture and also have an order for when some of those things actually happen can be enlightening. It can also help one see just how bad it will all be. This text concludes with two chapters that give an idea of what it will be like to die SAVED and what it will be like to die LOST. It will obviously be much better and much smarter to come to the Lord to be SAVED so that one can leave this existence in the former situation rather than in the latter. So it is sincerely and prayerfully hoped that each reader will also arrive at that conclusion, too.

Many Christians think of end times prophecy as a gigantic, intimidating puzzle -- difficult to piece together and impossible to figure out. But every puzzle can be solved if you approach it the right way. Paul Benware compares prophecy to a picture puzzle. Putting the edge pieces together first builds the 'framework' that makes it easier to fit the other pieces in their place. According to Benware, the framework for eschatology is the biblical covenants. He begins his comprehensive survey by explaining the major covenants. Then he discusses several different interpretations of end times prophecy. Benware digs into the details of the Rapture, the Great Tribulation, the judgements and resurrections, and the millennial kingdom. But he also adds a unique, personal element to the study, answering questions as: -Why study bible prophecy? -What difference does it make if I'm premillenial or amillenial? If what the Bible says about the future puzzles you, Understanding End Times Prophecy will help you put together the pieces and see the big picture.

Very accurate, extremely informative, and certainly understandable. As we all know, the revelation of Jesus Christ as recorded by John the Apostle is one of the most intriguing and fascinating books in the bible. However, Revelation Rightly Revealed (R3) conducts a precise yet comprehensive study of John's apocalypse. R3 analyzes and expounds on fourteen major themes found in the book of Revelation. As a result, you are guaranteed to receive dynamic and tremendous insight into the following concepts: The Four Horsemen, The Great Tribulation, Mystery Babylon, The Resurrections, The 7 Seals, 7 Trumpets, and 7 Vials, Eternity, and much more.

Despite the popular theology of our day, Christians should not expect to get out of experiencing the tribulation or the end times. Nowhere in the Bible does the Lord promise us this, say Michael Brown and Craig Keener, two leading, acclaimed Bible scholars. In fact, they say, Jesus promises us tribulation in this world. Yet this is no reason to fear. In this fascinating, accessible, and personal book, Brown and Keener walk you through what the Bible really says about the rapture, the tribulation, and the end times. What they find will leave you full of hope. God's wrath is not poured out on His people, and He will shield us from it--as he shielded Israel in Egypt during the ten plagues. So instead of taking comfort in what God hasn't promised, take comfort in the words of Jesus: He has overcome the world, and we live in his victory.
