What in the World Is Going On?: 10 Prophetic Clues You Cannot Afford to Ignore
Is the current economic and political crisis actually prophesied in the Bible? If so, what are we to do about it? It is hard to piece together all this information in a way that gives a comprehensive picture of what the end times will look like. That's why so many theories abound. And that's why Dr. David Jeremiah has written "What In the World Is Going On?," a unique book...more

What is going? Have you been asking yourself this question over the last few months as we have seen political unrest and upheaval across the world? If you have, this book would be a fantastic read for you. Dr. Jeremiah gives commentary on what is going on in our world today with a Biblical perspective. The idea of prophecy sparks great attention in the church and even outside of the church. We are intrigued by what the future holds and we would all like to know that it will be okay.

The economic downturn surprised us. National spending is out of control. Europe is rising in power again. Events in the Middle East seem to be getting worse, not better. What are we to think of it all?
After a tremendous amount of study, Dr. Jeremiah chose the ten most important prophetic clues from the Bible that we all need to be aware of. He shares them with us in his book, What it the World Is Going On? As the subtitle of the book says, we cannot afford to ignore them. They are now affecting...more

So glad to find this one for $1 at Bety Griffin, especially since it was published 2008 and was a hardback in excellent condition. Had just heard Dr. Jeremiah teach on the radio, and wanted to read this book -- then, it appeared in front of me at Thrift Shop. I know it was the Lord gifting me with the blessing of the content, the teaching, of the book. Now I understand world events much more clearly: oil, the economy, America's role, Israel and other nations. Most of the book is spent on connect...more

Everybody who sincerely wants truth.
Recommended to Trisha by:
An Amazon reviewer of John Hagee's book on the same subject which I read from the library.
This is an excellent foundation for the many other books that have been written in the last two years about what is going on in this world. Start with this one and build on it with all the others. Dr. Jeremiah's book is lucid, plainspoken and comprehensive, the best of the genre that I have read. An absolute must-read for the hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of us who want to know the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
Excellent, important books I would read to build on that...more

What In the World Is Going On?: 10 Prophetic Clues You Cannot Afford to Ignore by David Jeremiah makes the case that we are living in the Biblically prophesied last days. Providing a scary, no-nonsense commentary on recent world events, this book motivates the reader to shrug-off society’s prevailing apathy and evaluate truth vs. falsehood, good vs. evil, and purpose vs. selfish indulgence. Regardless of whether you agree with Jeremiah’s conclusions, the reading of this book prompts examination...more
It's a great book. So far I've only finished it half way. Now I'm on the chapter dealing with whether America is in biblical prophecy in the end times. The "Crude Awakening" chapter opened my eyes to what's going on globally with oil and the middle east. The Modern Day Rome chapter is very enlightening. We are definitely in the last days and if you don't believe it you will.....if you believe the Bible. Can't wait to finish this book...

This book is an excellent introduction to the relationship between Biblical end times prophecy (eschatology) and current events.
Unfortunately, the book is not consistent. When Dr. Jeremiah is close to the Scripture he is outstanding, but some of the work is a bit reaching, particularly early in the book, such as the chapter about oil and energy. In addition, while he does a good job explaining how the rapture fits in the time line and giving some background on why he favors a pre-tribulation ra...more

Never has world news, history or prophesy been so readable and understandable. I try to follow current events, especially those in the Middle East, but I get bogged down in the myriad of details.
Dr. Jeremiah hits the major points, and lays out it all out in a way that makes sense and enthralls. He offers concise but complete teachings on end times prophesies from the Old and New Testaments as a backdrop to very relevant current and recent world events.

Excellent book! This is an easy read. The subject can be confusing, but he brings it down to earth and easy for anybody to understand. There are lots of stats and figures and many are very current, so this book is very relevant. After reading this book, not only did I understand prophecy better, but I understand some of the World's current events and issues better. For example, this showed me that our situations in Iraq and Afghanistan are more complex than everybody thinks. Is it about oil? Of...more
This book by Dr David Jeremiah [one of the best Biblical teachers we have] is a familiar tour through prophecy including Israel's role in the world, oil crisis, evil regimes, coming AntiChrist, America's role in prophecy and other Endtime themes. Jeremiah's teaching style is always fresh and engaging. This is a mainstream evangelical approach with some risks taken along the way [he takes a personal stand on Islamic issue]. A primer for beginners or the curious, a great book for those who love Dr...more
This is a good collection of prophetic, end times events compared with the current state of the world. I found the first few chapters particularly intriguing, as Dr. Jeremiah discuss the switch from gold to oil, to stabilize American currency. And the summary of global oil production versus consumption was alarming. If you are someone who believes that the prophecies of scripture will be fulfilled in a literal way, like I do, you'll be interested to read Dr. Jeremiah's speculation on the shiftin...more

My Thoughts: I remember my great-great grandmother always seeing signs of the apocalypse. Some may have dismissed this as 'old folk's talking' but I wonder what she'd say of these days we live in. Would her thought's be similar to Dr. Jeremiah's? I didn't see this book as a gloom and doom book, but rather a reminder to believers to stay focused as we are a 'peculiar people'.

I have just finished reading “What in the world is going on” by Dr. David Jeremiah.
Let me say that Mr. Jeremiah really helped me put things in perspective. There are so many things that I didn’t understand about the end of days and the second coming as well as many other subjects, he worded everything so well and made me see the reality that I hadn’t saw. I’m really excited about this book , Im thinking of donating it to my pastor so he can go over it and put it to some good use. If you do not u...more

I'm truly thankful that I got a chance to review this book from Booksneeze. It's been awhile since I read a good book regarding prophecy and the end times. What In The World Is Going On by Dr. David Jeremiah is one that certainly takes into account what is pertainant for today. This book takes a look at the center of the oil reserve controversary; the nation of Israel and it geographical signifigance and the nations that will come against her at the end of days.
So what makes this prophecy book d...more
What in The World is Going On?....this is the question that Dr.David Jeremiah attempts to answer or I guess answers in this book. Its Basically a view of what is going on in the world today and even things that hve already happen in our worlds history and how it ties to Biblical Prophecy and The Book of Revelations in the Bible..... Which I feel he did a WONDERFUL job breaking it down in just plain english for the common woman or man to understand. The author has an abundance of research citati...more
Very few books impact your life in such a way that you will never live the next day in the same way you did the last…..this book does just that. You will find it more than difficult to put this book down. Dr. Jeremiah clearly and concisely reveals Biblical Prophecy in a way that will impact the way you live your daily life; truly you will not be able to view the world, nor your individual life, in the same way after reading this book.

David Jeremiah does a great job of brining the prophecies together and putting them in order, especially in terms of end-times events. He paints a picture of how the yet-to be fulfilled prophecies could be fulfilled on the current geopolitical stage. As always, specific countries, etc. I think, should be taken with a grain of salt. But still, the amount of real-world data he regiments within his dispensational, premillenial is impressive. The end is inspirational, as it should be.
*Note: This book really has a 4.5 star rating!!!
This book is very similar to Joel C. Rosenberg's Epicenter. It contains a lot of the same information and conclusions, but it does contain some new insights. The writing style is very simplistic and easy to understand, so I highly recommend it for anyone interested in Bible prophecy and elates to current events in the world. Dr. David Jeremiah explains biblical prophecy very well in this book.

People who are interested/don't know a lot about the end times
A really good non-fiction/spiritual growth book. If you like stuff about the end-times and the world ending, this is the book for you. It may come as a wake up call, however, if you are not a Christian. Therefore, I urge you to read it. You need to be able to read through lots of stats, numbers, and percentages. I don't like math and that kind of thing (leave that for the oppressive textbooks), so those parts were a little dry for me. But then Jeremiah would touch a heartstring and get me excite...more
I read this book slowly and some of it in audio version on my Kindle. I thought David Jeremiah did a great job presenting ideas on biblical events that are happening today and why they are happening. VERY thought provoking.
I've read this book 3 times now... a great insight on "current" (depending on when you read it) events in light of Biblical prophecy. A must-read for believers who desire insight into what the Bible says about the end of time.
This is a book about bible prophecy and what is going on in the world today.It is very good.It is easy to understand and helps you see things differently so your not as worried about what is going on in the world.
A good read. I enjoyed his take on current events and how they tie into biblical prophecy. Regardless of whether you believe the connections he makes, it is a good reminder that we are to always be prepared for the end times.
Dr. David Jeremiah provides insight into events taking place today that are leading up to the end-times. He identifies ten clues to what's happening and ties them to related Bible prophecies.
Timely b/c I'm just finishing a Bible study on Daniel/Revelations. Have to take some of what the author says w/ a grain of salt, but some interesting historical information in there.
Very current and insightful book. Intertwines things going on in the world and political arena with prophesies in the Bible concerning the times we're in and the turbulent time to come.

I just bought this book, I love listening to Dr. Jeremiah. I was recently in the car for a long period and found him speaking on this book and the book of Daniel which I love.
Best book I've read explaining what's going on in the world today.
Clear, concise and brilliantly written. Never dull or boring while being informative AND interesting.
