It's the End of the World as We Know It (and I Feel Fine): How to stop worrying and learn to love these End Times
The realm of Bible prophecy fascinates millions of people, yet today there is a disconnect between true Bible prophecy and the everyday lives of people living in American popular culture. Bible prophecy experts are generally Christian conservatives/fundamentalists who talk about the Rapture, the antichrist, and the mark of the beast. Yet while those subjects titillate audiences, they do so in the same way the films of Stephen King scare us. Jim Fletcher fills that void with a look at just how relevant (and true) Bible prophecy really is, showing how: . Despite the mockery of the Bible today, we are in fact living in the last days of world history, as outlined in the Hebrew and Christian scriptures . God plainly reveals Himself in the Bible, and how an understanding of this can satisfy that human longing to know who is “out there” and what is happening in our world today. The writing model for this book is Blue Like Jazz (Donald Miller; Thomas Nelson, 2003) and Velvet Elvis: Repainting the Christian Faith (Rob Bell; Zondervan, 2005).

You Can Trust Bible Prophecy
The theme of It’s the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine) is that you can trust Bible Prophecy. After all, hundreds of prophecies have already been fulfilled, so we should have confidence that God’s prophecies that have not yet been fulfilled will be someday. Author, Jim Fletcher, focuses on fulfilled prophecies mainly concerned with Israel. The modern nation of Israel born in 1948 is the “super” sign of Bible Prophecy. Israel’s rebirth was plainly revealed in the Bible by the God who writes history in advance. Since God has done and continues to do what He said He would do for the Jews, we should be strengthened when we read that He loves us and provides for us. Fletcher writes in a style that is easy to read and at times humorous. However, there are times when you are also emotionally drawn in to the story. Fletcher’s chapter on Entebbe is a standout. It’s the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine) is an outstanding read and I highly recommend it.

Time Flies!
Reads quickly. God is in everything and everywhere! Thank you, for pointing out the importance of the fig tree, Israel! And thank you for the history lesson of how God is and was in U.S. History. All history!

Not the commentary I was expecting but the one I needed. Fantastic and biblical sound perspective of the days we live in.
