Could the writings of the ancient Hebrew prophets be relevant to events taking place in the world today?Did the Hebrew prophets foretell the events of 9/11? Are they relevant to our world today? 'Mega-Babylon' - where is it?The Hebrew prophets – from Isaiah and Jeremiah, to the apostle John, spoke of a city and nation they referred to by the codename, 'Mega-Babylon'. Have these prophecies been fulfilled already? What about Daniel's 'writing on the wall'? Is Mega-Babylon the Roman Catholic Church? A world super-church? Rebuilt ancient Babylon? Brussels, Jerusalem, or somewhere entirely different? Should this city/nation have a large Jewish population? Why all the talk about merchants, cargoes, commodities, trade?Can we rely on the words of these ancient prophets? If so, what else did they foretell that is still to be fulfilled? Do they refer to other major nations – USA, Russia, China, Europe? What about militant Islam?My background is in lecturing, publishing and radio/TV – but previously I ran a construction business. I still love to know how things are put together - buildings, origins of words, phrases – so I have used a similar approach in exploring, what I believe to be, an extremely important and relevant topic.
A Good Description of What We can expect in the last days.
Thought this portrayed what will come in the future very well. Much study of the Bible had obviously been undertaken by the author, and I thought he presented it in a good way without sensationalising a very sensitive subject.
When I read this book I was immediately impressed and drawn in. The logical progression of the ideas is riveting. It would be very hard not to read on. The writing is straightforward and easy to read - there are no long-winded and self-important sentences. The writer wants to be understood, rather than to appear clever. I admire this way of writing, and wish that all so-called academic/intellectual writers would learn to do the same.
The ground covered is of immense importance, and, as the author says, he has spent nearly forty years researching it and considering the meaning of what he's found - although as his wife I can vouch for it that he hasn't spent every minute of his time on it!
A book which everyone should read, and which will keep you reading on until the end - a real page turner.
