What good End Times books can you recommend?

Davis · Sep 15, 2005

Reading The American Prophecies byt Michael Evans right now and its a very good book as far as him telling us his thoughts on how we should worry about Israel and dump our support for the Arab community. He talks about Ishmael and Issac and that we need to side with Issac or we could be on the wrong side of end-times prophecy when it comes.

Are there any other books that some may recommend on this subject. I have already read the Left Behind series and it was too long and drawn out. I want something based on events that are happening in real life or may happen in the future. Thanks.

I've heard A Second Look at the Second Coming was good. Though I haven't yet read it myself, I plan to pick it up soon. It covers a lot of what the Early Church Fathers taught regarding tribulation, chiliasm, the Second Coming, etc.

While reading Michael Evans book he talks about a man named William Blackstone that was very instrumental in bringing the Jews back to there promised land of Israel. He believed the time was near. This was in the late 1800's I believe. Then of coarse it happened not to many decades later. Pretty cool stuff in this book. Taking his opinons like a grain of salt of course but some of the facts are pretty interesting. Anyway, I guess Blackstone wrote a book called Jesus is Coming. Talking a ton about future prophecy that has yet to be filled and that the end-times are near. Backs everything up with scripture. I'm going to see if I can find it today because it would be interesting to listen to his thoughts. Very smart man from what I have read.

not as far as one knows LoL (no offense taken)... Arthur C Clarke is a Sci-fi writer. Can't tell if he's Christian at all or not from his books... although with Childhoods End it would seem to indicate that he's read or knows about the bible as there are a lot of things that are similar to endtime prophecies or description of the millenial reign and an omnipresent superbeing.

Although for some Good "mormon" books, you can try Enders Game Series (albeit there are no endtime events, as far as one knows).

Might check it out. Thanks.

I started The Ezekiel Option by Joel Rosenberg yesterday. What makes it good is that it sounds like it could actually happen...I'm really enjoying it

...I think that there are some books that come before it, but I didn't know about them until an hour ago...

As another alternative to the "Left Behind" craze, the Last Disciple explores the view that much of Revelation has already taken place in the 1st century. I haven't read it, but I've heard good reviews. The second in the series is about to be released.

Revelation: Four Views : A Parallel Commentary

stonetoflesh · Sep 29, 2005

I bet if you asked this question in the Eschatology forum you'd get a flood of suggestions...

Aside from a few bible studies on Revelation, the only eschatological work I've read was Are We Living in the End Times? by LaHaye and Jenkins. Some of their interpretations were interesting, and others made them come across as the most paranoid people in the world; they certainly know their biblical prophecy, but so much of what they espoused just seemed like useless speculation about who/what might be represented how...

Just ordered this off of Amazon. Sounds very very well put together.
Very good reviews from pastors.

Have you gone through it yourself?
Its sounds very very informative and possibly exhausting lol. 600+ pages worth. Thats a lot.

I am in the middle of a 5 book series about Christian Origins and the Question of God. It is a comprehensive assessment of the historical and theological questions surrounding the origins. I want to get through it before I move to revelations stuff. I, like you, have found a lot of info about Revelation: Four Views : A Parallel Commentary. This is why I suggest it. Also, I have heard others on this website suggest it. (btw...the book series is same amount of pages for each volume. I am finding I need to take it slowly. So it could take me awhile.)

What good End Times books can you recommend?
