Summary: Good Information, Easy to Understand, Compelling
Review: Hal Lindsey is a great author, and this is another one of his good books. He has presented insightful information on how Israel was founded, and why it had to be re-formed. How all of our lives are entwined -- believers and non-believers alike. And why we may be the generation that sees the final prophecies of the Bible unfold before our very eyes.Yes, Mr. Lindsey can get enthusiasic at times, but he does not date set in this book, as is correct. He provides a background where the reader can compare today's world with what is described in Bible prophecy. Is time short, as Mr. Lindsey contends? It is for the reader to decide, but Mr. Lindsey provides compelling examples, that should have the reader searching in his or her own heart for a response. As for those who may criticize Mr. Lindsey's enthusiasm for Bible prophecy as believing that we shouldn't "make plans", because Christ is coming back soon.... I don't think Mr. Lindsey actually means we shouldn't "make plans", but rather we should live with a heightened awareness that the plans that we make may, or may not come to naught. (It doesn't mean you shouldn't plan!) If we are indeed the generation that sees the final prophecies unfold, and Mr. Lindsey provides insightful reasons as why we probably are, don't you want to know what to expect?

Summary: Wake Up!!!
Review: I read this book just about a month ago, and I am still telling people about it. If you are like me and wanted to know what is happening in the world around us, this book points right to what you need to know. I have several friends already reading it. What really amazed me is that this book was written in 1998, yet many of the things that were spoken of, they are happening right now. This book is a must read for anyone that you care about who's eternal future is not secured. This will make you and them re-think what you want to do with the small amount of time that we as believers have left on this earth. No one will want to be here during "Earth's Final Chapter".

Summary: Religious Prophecy vs. Political Science
Review: I think people who are intersted in this book will realize two things after they read it. First, Jesus and the Bible are meant to guide you to be a good person, to do the right things, follow in His footsteps- not predict the apocalypse. Second, Hal Lindsey uses this book and his others to take advantage of people looking to God for comfort and direction. Before you believe any of this, read Richard Abanes' book, End Time Visions. Don't let this heartless man change your life and beliefs for another penny in his pocket. Read it. Don't buy it if you don't have to. See the lack of evidence and the way Lindsey twists and mutilates the Bible. You have more respect for the Bible than that.

Summary: How Ironic....
Review: That Hal Lindsey write how my people, the Jewish people have survived for millenia the attempted destruction and the abuse and humiliation at the hands of our enemies. That our survival is Biblical prophecy and that our ingathering is a millenial sign. Yes all this is true, it cannot be doubted. But what hurts me and hurts every Jew that I speak to, it the fact that Xians speak of all these pogroms and murders as if they were looking from the outside. If they only looked down at their hands they would see the blood of my people staining their finger nails. The fact that they so easily cast it off and give no second thought to their barbacity, and the murder and hatred of their ancestor is insulting. A fell good book for murderers and oppressor as so how all this was ment to be and the world is good. Yes we have survived the murders and the attempted conversion to a pagan heretic false god, and we have maintained to believe in the G-d of Israel, but no thanks to you and your people!

Summary: Good book, could have been stronger...
Review: The book is good as Hal Lindsey is a good writer. Chapter 6 creates a problem though. The great Y2K never hit it just fizzled out. So this means one of two things either Hal was completely wrong or the great BG who solved this problem could be...? or was it someone else.

Summary: Some good information, but a dry presentation
Review: There's a lot of very good information in this book, some useful analysis, but the writing is so dry and bland that I had a difficult time getting through the novel. If this writer only had the ability of a writer like C.S. Lewis who wrote the Screwtape letters or Brian Caldwell who wrote We All Fall Down, I think that this would be a perfect book. As it is, the information is useful, but it's a drag getting to it.

Summary: Does This Guy Ever Give Up?
Review: Thirty years ago, Lindsey was writing this nonsense, and he's still doing it. Nothing he says ever comes true, and yet the sheep still buy his books. The Second Coming has been just around the corner for 2,000 years, and 2,000 years from now, guys like Lindsey will still be making a fortune with this tripe. Will someone please set a date -- i.e., as of June 30, 200X, Jesus will be here, and if he's not here, we'll shut up about it and move on to something more believable, like palm-reading or phrenology. How gullible are these religious fanatics?
