The author has an unmatched library of resources which he uses to clarify the prophesied chain of events laid down in the Bible. He uses texts written in the very first years of the church, to show what the early church believed, having as they did the recent legacy of teachers who had actually been among the disciples of Jesus. He knows his Bible like few others do, cross referencing and pointing out the true shades of meanings of words; and he has deduced from that a clear picture, not fanciful imagination, of what the Bible actually says about end times. This challenging book cannot fail to change you, I must warn. Beneath the admittedly rather sensationalist, American looking cover lies a wealth of detailed study for less than five pounds.
