I gave this ok 3 stars more for my expectations of the book and not actually for the book itself. The book is well written. It would make a good 2-month devotional guide as each of the 60 chapters is short and can be read in less than 10 minutes. It is filled with scripture. However, I was expecting the book to be more about end time/future event prophecy. The author takes the Bible and basically walks us through 60 Old/New Testament passages and shows what was prophesied and then the fulfillment of the prophecy. There is even an application at the end. My favorite one was "God's answers are better than our prayers". I believe the book would be better read by new Christians as an overall guide to bible prophecy. If you're a mature Christian who has been reading the Bible for years, you might be a little disappointed.

It is a great book with very specific topics and a brief outlook of prophecy. Good for a light prophecy study

Another easy to read and understand book. Guthrie is an excellent writer and knows his subject. He describes 60 predictions from throughout the Bible, iincluding showing that the death and resurrection of Jesus was predicted several times in the Old Testament. He includes prophecies all the way to the last days. I loved the book and even though I have studied the Bible all of my life, I still learn all the time and definitely learned reading this book.

A good read for beginners on the study of prophecy

A really interesting book on prophecy, based on a different and simplified approach.
It's recommended as a beginner (book) for those who are/have keen interest on prophecy.
It provide quite a wide and extensive write-up events on (main) prophesies in the Bible.

I found this book hard going. At the end of the book there are about 30 pages telling you how to approach the scriptures and applying the prophecies in something called hermanetics or some such method. Woof, right over my head.

Past prophecy reviewed.

A good read to show how prophesy in the Bible has been fulfilled. Also to pinot out how much of mankind's future was foretold in the Bible. Too little I feel was devoted to future prophecy. perhaps though that was not the purpose of the book.

[David Sassaman · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very simply points out prophecies fulfilled (or yet to be fulfilled) straight from the word of God. Great read for a new student of prophecy.

[Don Paske · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a good book but not anything special. I had hoped for a little more depth. Nothing especially bad about the book; just needs more substance.
