The Late Great Planet Earth
Author: Hal Lindsey
Publisher: Zondervan
ISBN: 0310531063
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
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.

The Rapture Exposed
Author: Barbara R. Rossing
Publisher: Basic Books
ISBN: 0465004962
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
The idea of "The Rapture" -- the return of Christ to rescue and deliver Christians off the earth -- is an extremely popular interpretation of the Bible's Book of Revelation and a jumping-off point for the best-selling "Left Behind" series of books. This interpretation, based on a psychology of fear and destruction, guides the daily acts of thousands if not millions of people worldwide. In The Rapture Exposed, Barbara Rossing argues that this script for the world's future is nothing more than a disingenuous distortion of the Bible. The truth, Rossing argues, is that Revelation offers a vision of God's healing love for the world. The Rapture Exposed reclaims Christianity from fundamentalists' destructive reading of the biblical story and back into God's beloved community.

As The Days of Noah Were

Book Description
"As the days of Noah were, so shall the coming of the son of man be." - Matthew 24:37" The disciples of Christ came to him in private to ask for signs of the end of the age, and he responded with the above sentence... but what happened during the days of Noah, that made Christ point to it as a reference? "And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose." - Genesis 6:1-2 These two verses have been the source of speculation and debate, for over 2,000 years. The reason for this has to do with the use of the phrase "bene ha elohim" (sons of God), which in Judaism is a rank of angels. The idea that angels would descend, abduct human woman, and have children with them, is inconceivable to many people of faith. However, the Bible is not the only text to make the claim of beings descending from the sky and having children with mortal women. The Bible: The children of angels and human women were hybrid giants called Nephilim. Mythology: The children of the gods and human women were hybrids called demi gods, which became the heroes (Hercules, Perseus, etc). Modern Day: The children of aliens and human women are called hybrids. What makes these ideas even more controversial and disturbing, is a prophecy found in the book of Daniel, concerning the end of the age: "And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.- Daniel 2:43 Who or what would be mingling themselves with the seed (offspring) of men? This verse raises an entire list of speculations, ranging from aliens to human clones. This is just one of the many subjects that is covered in this book. During our journey, we will explore stories from Babylon, Greece, Ireland, Ethiopia, and various other cultures around the world, to fill in the missing pieces to one of the biggest mysteries on our planet: What really happened during the days of Noah? Chapter 1: Ideas, Stories, and Beliefs Chapter 2: Science and The Flood Chapter 3: The Lines of Seth Theory Chapter 4: The Angel Theory Chapter 5: Actions and Consequences Chapter 6: The Corruption of All Flesh Chapter 7: A Brief History of Giants Chapter 8: The Days of Noah Chapter 9: A Skeptical Analysis Chapter 10: Ancient Warnings Chapter 11: Ancient Prophecies Fulfilled Chapter 12: Possible Future of Mankind Chapter 13: As The Days of Lot Were Appendix A: Grouping of Flood Stories (over 500) Appendix B: The Valentich Disappearance Appendix C: Human Animal Hybrid Prohibition Act Appendix D: Scenario X This is one of the most thoroughly researched and highest rated books on Noah's flood, but don't just take my word for it. Feel free to browse the reviews for both the 1st and 2nd editions of the book, right here on Amazon. No matter what your current belief is about the days of Noah, you will never look at Bible prophecy or history the same way again. Prepare to have your mind blown.

The Nephilim and the Pyramid of the Apocalypse
Author: Patrick Heron
Publisher: Citadel Press
ISBN: 9780806528106
Category : Armageddon
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
For almost 5000 years, the pyramids and similar structures in Mexico and Cambodia have taunted scholars with their cryptic secrets and astronomical significance--who built these world wonders and how? Buried in ancient Hebrew texts, undiscovered and largely ignored by scholars, lies a wealth of information about a mysterious and little known race of giants, called the Nephilim--sons of God who coupled with mortals, and their children--the true builders of the pyramids and other great monuments of ancient history. The true identity of the builders is only half the story--by scientifically examining age-old prophecies, author Patrick Heron was able to discover the true purpose of the pyramids. His astonishing findings, thoroughly and engagingly explained in The Nephilim and the Pyramid of the Apocalypse, address the importance of the pyramids and their significance in predicting the coming Apocalypse. These pyramids hold the answer to the question man has been asking since the beginning of time: when and how will the world end? It may be sooner than you think.

Jesus
Author: Bart D. Ehrman
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199839433
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
In this highly accessible discussion, Bart Ehrman examines the most recent textual and archaeological sources for the life of Jesus, along with the history of first-century Palestine, drawing a fascinating portrait of the man and his teachings. Ehrman shows us what historians have long known about the Gospels and the man who stands behind them. Through a careful evaluation of the New Testament (and other surviving sources, including the more recently discovered Gospels of Thomas and Peter), Ehrman proposes that Jesus can be best understood as an apocalyptic prophet--a man convinced that the world would end dramatically within the lifetime of his apostles and that a new kingdom would be created on earth. According to Ehrman, Jesus' belief in a coming apocalypse and his expectation of an utter reversal in the world's social organization not only underscores the radicalism of his teachings but also sheds light on both the appeal of his message to society's outcasts and the threat he posed to Jerusalem's established leadership.

Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
AN NPR BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR • An absorbing, deeply felt book about our anxious present tense—and coming to grips with the future, by the author of the award-winning To Be a Machine. “Deeply funny and life-affirming, with a warm, generous outlook even on the most challenging of subjects.” —Esquire We’re alive in a time of worst-case scenarios: The weather has gone uncanny. A pandemic draws our global community to a halt. Everywhere you look there’s an omen, a joke whose punchline is the end of the world. How is a person supposed to live in the shadow of such a grim future? What might it be like to live through the worst? And what on earth is anybody doing about it? Dublin-based writer Mark O’Connell is consumed by these questions—and, as the father of two young children, he finds them increasingly urgent. In Notes from an Apocalypse, he crosses the globe in pursuit of answers. He tours survival bunkers in South Dakota. He ventures to New Zealand, a favored retreat of billionaires banking on civilization’s collapse. He engages with would-be Mars colonists, preppers, right-wing conspiracists. And he bears witness to places, like Chernobyl, that the future has already visited—real-life portraits of the end of the world as we know it. What emerges is an absorbing, funny, and deeply felt book about our anxious present tense—and coming to grips with what’s ahead.
