“Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the
prophecy; and heeds the things which are written in it; for the time is
near.” Revelation 1:3
Yes, I know….I’m doing it again. But, as many of you know, I
love to read Christian fiction and many of these novels have so much Biblical
basis that they don’t even seem like made up stories.
In Webster’s Dictionary, one of several definitions of
apocalypse is: any universal or widespread destruction or disaster. As you may
have guessed, this tale is about some happenings just prior to a terrible time
in our world’s future. It is a very
exciting, somewhat gripping story of people who begin to realize that they are
losing their freedoms. It is so
excitingly realistic that the reader cannot help but compare it to the same
events written about in the Holy Word.
The reader will not even have to examine it too closely to understand
their meanings.
The plot of this book is well written and the hero and his
family will cause you to be very sympathetic with them in the many and varied
plights in which they find themselves.
Although the theme of this work is a familiar one, this book
will cause not only enjoyment but will certainly give you pause to contemplate
our future. After all, Christian fiction
is usually more Christian than fiction.
