Can America Survive?: 10 Prophetic Signs That We Are The Terminal Generation
This new book by New York Times best-selling author and pastor, John Hagee, says the United States is heading into a “Perfect Storm.” Titanic. John F. Kennedy’s assassination. 9/11. John Hagee maintains that these American tragedies all have one element in they were unthinkable. And in the opening pages of his newest book, Can America Survive? Hagee uses these tragedies to prove two that the unthinkable can happen and, given the right conditions, the unthinkable can quickly become the inevitable .
In Can America Survive? Hagee asserts that the seeds for tragedy are once again being sown, evidenced by the disturbing economic, geopolitical, and religious trends that now threaten to dismantle the very nation itself. “Think it can’t happen?” Hagee asks in a theme repeated throughout the book. “Think again.” Indeed, Hagee presents alarming examples of recent events, current research, scientific evidence, and biblical prophecy that are gathering to create a “perfect storm” that could bring down the “unsinkable” United States of America
Can America Survive? is not just a warning. It is a wake-up call and a rallying cry to Christian citizens everywhere to prevent the next unthinkable American disaster. After all, as Hagee points out, “those who do not remember the mistakes of the past are doomed to repeat them in the future.” Think it can’t happen? Think again.

Personal Response:
Personally, Can America Survive, is an excellent book to read. Many of the topics dealt with anxiety and the gap we have in our cultural country. I thought this book is interesting based on the amount of information that John Hagee, a pastor from Texas, presents to his readers. The reason I thought the facts he presented are intriguing is that a pastor is explaining the United State’s issues through his eyes, and how America overcomes these issues.
Plot:
John Hagee relives some of the most unbelievable events that took place in America. One of John’s first topics that he touches on is the horrific event that took place 18 years ago, 911. John wants Americans to know, Muslims are not all wrong-doing people. Hagee believes in a Pentecostal Religion, which entails that John wants all Christians to support the Muslim and Jewish communities. As time goes on in America, the next political event America endures is the overall death of a dollar. John believes the reason for America’s tragedy is the “seed that’s being sewn.” This simply entails that the way our government shapes Americans by any geopolitical, economic, and social issues, determines the values of American’s. All of John’s beliefs bring very well rounded questions to the table, and sooner or later, Hagee wants the American Dreams of the public to thrive and unite. Creating positive relationships with Muslims is John’s biggest accomplishment throughout his pastoral career. Hagee wants all of his readers to understand one thing: “If the tragedies that struck American’s in his book don’t scare the public, then Ameican’s need a wake-up call.”
Characterization:
John’s character is defined as an ordinary but “ Biblical Pentecostal ”individual.Can America Survive provided many statistics and information showing the struggles America endures in the past century. Hagee proved himself as a strong-opinionated individual. America’s tragedies prove to be the antagonist in the novel, due to the fact that innocent civilians are losing their lives and the amount of emotional suffering they endure.
Setting:
The settings take place throughout the United States. The topics John discusses are major city attacks on America. The majority of the events John highlights are of larger countries and major populated cities throughout America. The time occurrences of John’s topics span from 1950, the Iran Nuclear War, and most current, the death of an American dollar; developing from a 2.5 trillion dollar debt in health care during the 2000s.
Thematic Connection:
The theme throughout Can America Survive is a pastor reliving the catastrophic events that strike Americans and leaving Americans to understand why it’s happening to the United States. Hagee uses these tragedies to undermine and explain to Americans that if it happens once, another American tragedy is bound to happen again.
Recommendation
I strongly recommend,Can America Survive to a reader who enjoys reading real-based stories that relate to our country’s history. Can America Survive deals with many biblical terms throughout the text. A reader who enjoys biblical content including real-life situations would enjoy readingCan America Survive.

So America is a person. A god. And you are supposed to be a slave to this god of Hagee. Of course, America uber alles, so it's less relevant how many slaves die along the way.

so far, this is a great book that has an in-depth take on the state of our nation, in relation to the global social problems in the middle east. If you want to see where our nation is headed, get this book!

Another wonderful work from Pastor Hagee, one that should be read by Christians and non-believers alike. Hagee's look into the past and present, from a biblical, political, and joint standpoint, is one that cannot and should not be ignored. Indeed, the clock is ticking.

This is a phenomenal book and a read I would recommend to everyone, Christian and non-Christian alike, but especially Christians. John Hagee makes this a clear and easy to understand subject which isn't easy to understand.

Read it! Think about it, then pray.

This was a good book, and it opened my eyes to information that I did not know. Everyone should go buy it, read it, and find someone to talk to about it.

Honestly, if it were purely the economic part and a little of the political part, this would have maybe been a low four. The amount of detail is surprising. Unfortunately, the book also had to be part fearmongering (and now the Israel supporter and end times supporter crowd makes sense), part religious text, mostly repetitive Christian conservative talking points. And even that would just drop this to three stars. Nope, the two star rating is partly because the book delved into numerology, and also that last chapter is just a retelling of Revelations without even a modicum of connection to modern times (at least the first parts attempted that). Anyway, I can find the conservative economic section in other books.

Great book! Pastor John Hagee makes it clear through Scripture from the Holy Bible that Jesus is coming back to earth to reclaim His kingdom & that the Jews are still God's chosen people. As a Christian, I gloried in the knowledge that my family & I will be taken in the Rapture if the Church, but I feel very scared for those who do not believe that Jesus is the Messiah. Pastor Hagee explains America's largest in the Tribulation that will occur after the Rapture. all of those remaining on earth have a choice..join the Antichrist or be beheaded. Then God's judgement will rain down on those left behind. Pastor Hagee explores the Boom of Revelations, leaving no room for misunderstanding by the reader. He makes plain the parts played in these final days by all countries on earth..not just the USA. This book is a must read now!

This book is hilarious. This is a gut-wrenching, pee-in-your-pants-from-laughing-too-hard-at-the-bogus-scholarship kind of book. It's funny because he's actually serious! He truly believes the prophecies concerning ancient Assyria are explicitly connected with a modern fulfillment about Iraqi oil and the end of America. And while he's imagining new and creative ways to arbitrarily connect Old Covenant prophecy with modern historical events, he's confident that Jesus is coming to the rescue once America collapses. Make sure to buy the paperback version so that it holds that authentic comic book feeling in your hand while you read it.

A very good book looking at what is coming up for the world, and the US in particular with references to biblical and recent history. There is a lot of evangelical stuff in the book, which I would recommend you take with a grain of salt. His biblical references are from a newer version of the Bible than the King James version, which I don't necessarily like.

This book was all over the place and lacked a lot of John Hagee's trademark humor! Still, I appreciate his knowledge and passion for the subject matter. Could have cut about 70 pages out of this book due to repetition. Hagee supports the idea of the rapture of the Church. I wonder what persecuted Christians in China think about the rapture?

April 23, 2012This is a very scary, eye-opening book! Really makes me want to leave the face of this eath NOW!

There was some new stuff here that I didn't previously already know, but most of the material were things that I already knew.

Does an excellent job explaining today's critical situation. Very very scary.

Been a while since I read this one, but I think it lines up with "The Harbinger". So get both and read them!

February 22, 2013Already read twice and will probably read again. If you are grounded in Scripture, this book will definitely set you thinking.

Too many questionable? facts? in his writing. I agree that a nuclear Iran is incredibly scary, but too much of Haggee's statements / facts? are hype.
