‘The End Is Near!’
Or is it? The Antichrist is alive and well today! Or is he? The church is about to be raptured and will certainly escape the tribulation.... right?
When it comes to the End Times, there’s so much confusion. Preachers with elaborate charts share their theories about Revelation and other prophetic books of the Bible. “Ah, Babylon stands for the United States ,” they say. But then other teachers share their “No, Babylon stands for the Roman Catholic Church, or the European Union, or the literal Babylon rebuilt in Iraq ….”

This book is SUPER INFORMATIVE with massive amounts of scripture. Mark leaves plenty of room for the reader to draw their own conclusions but backs up every answer with scripture. Super good read and great for referencing. Overall I couldn’t put it down!
Interesting perspective. However, I don’t have a good feeling about this author. Several things in this book I disagree with his view on and I’m concerned he’s a false prophet. He made a lot of speculation…using scripture. I would not recommend this book.
I read this book hoping I could find some shred of respect left in christianity... but my respect only dropped to the negative scale. I find it disappointing how some people will read this book and use the "information" found inside it as the batteries to their faith; how discouraging. From transitioning through different versions of the Bible with contrasting ideas, to claiming the antichrist is a homosexual.... one could find this book laughable. But the worst part is the author is serious.
