Since the book is an encyclopedia not a polemic (unlike other LaHaye and Ice books), it reports/describes, rather than advocates for the authors' particular endtimes view (pre-trib, pre-mil dispensationalist). It's a helpful book for those who know what they're looking for; otherwise, to read this alphabetical reference from start to end, as if it were a narrative, might seem random or confusing.

Informative.......2006-08-06

This book is written by several authors and gives varying opinions on the topics of Bible Prophecy. I found the book informative and consider it a must have. I find myself picking this book up to read many times a week. It is not a read from front to back type of book as it is an encyclopedia and arranged by topics. I have purchased one and gave it to a pastor who will be doing a study at my church but I missed the book so much that I purchased one again to keep for myself. The authors provide Biblical scriptures as references to prove points and I must say I can actually talk about The Revelation and other Bible prophecies in the gospels now with some knowledge.

Why continue to be deceived..........2006-06-26

Tim LaHaye, Jerry Jenkins, and others in the Pre-Trib circle, such as Ed Hindson, Tommy Ice, Chuck Missler, etc., continue to put forth the same deceptions that Hal Lindsey popularized decades ago. The notion of a pre-tribulation rapture is foreign to scripture, it is foreign to the teachings of the early Church, and it is grooming the Church for destruction through ignorance and lack of preparation for what is really coming. These men are novices and not prophecy "experts" or "scholars" by any stretch of the imagination; they are those who tickle the ears of gullible Christians. Why continue to be deceived? Tim Cohen, in his excellent book, "The AntiChrist and a Cup of Tea," provides biblically sound and testable evidence to show that the coming AntiChrist is known NOW. Not only that, the same author (Tim Cohen) has now put out the strongest presentation on the whole issue of the rapture EVER offered to the saints of God in Christ: "The REAL Rapture". If you really want to know the truth about the timing of the coming rapture, then you need to hear Tim Cohen's "The REAL Rapture" (based on a volume in his forthcoming "Messiah, History, and the Tribulation Period" series (see Prophecy House's web site, prophecyhouse dot com, for details on these items).

Very good reference.......2006-02-12

As the name implies, this is an encyclopedic reference for Scriptural prophesy. In the front of the book is a list of topics (table of contents) of all 140+ topics discussed, and then an index of charts. A short introduction from LaHaye and Hindson follows that discusses the need for such a book. Topics are then laid out in alphabetical order and covers topics from all prophetic writings in Scripture, not just those found in Revelation.

This book hails from the Pretribulational-Premillenial standpoint, as do LaHaye's writings. It is key to know this in purchasing this book. He defines and critiques other views, such as Post-Tribulation Rapture and Amillenialism.

This is a superb book for reference regarding literal-exegetical prophetic teachings and a basic discussion of allegorical alternative views. This is not a book for the theologian, as the title also aptly states (the POPULAR Encyclopedia...), and is great for the beginning student or the teacher of prophetic theologies.

Book Description

The Great War haunts the world still. It slaughtered a generation of young men; claimed limbs, wounded souls; drenched battlefields in blood; made sad legends of the Western Front, Gallipoli, and Jutland, and made heroes of poets; farmers, and factory workers. Clerks it made into Tommies, doughboys, or the Hun. And in this new Mammoth volume the voices of such eyewitnesses to history as these are heard again. So are the words of generals, statesmen, and kings. From the trenches in Flanders to the staff rooms of the Imperial German Army, with the Land Girls in England and U-boat crews in the Atlantic, alongside T. E. Lawrence in Arabia’s desert and the Red Baron in the air—with a variety of extracts from letters, speeches, memoirs, diaries, and dispatches, this gripping collection covers each year and every facet of World War I. Among its wide range of witnesses are King George V, Robert Graves, Leon Trotsky, Erwin Rommel, Ernst Junger, Ernest Hemingway, American aviator Eddie Rickenbacker; and Winston S. Churchill. The pieces in this volume compose a stirring human drama of the conflict that redrew the map of the modern world and determined the political course of the twentieth century.

good book on a bad time.......2005-12-14

One can read many books covering the campaigns and personalities of World War I and still come away with an incomplete picture of what the war was really about. The strategies, the national goals of the participants, and the political fallout - ushering in the destruction of empires that had lasted for hundreds of years, Bolshevism, fascism and Naziism, with all that was to come out of that - are all obviously important, but they do not reach down far enough into the basic and elemental experience of the common soldier in the field.

Jon E. Lewis has done a commendable job of editing over 180 first hand accounts of what the war was like, almost all of the pieces being written by average men and women who participated on every level of the conflict. The most poignant are from letters home, diary entries, and reminisces after the fact, coming from soldiers, nurses, and low-level commanders, telling of the hell of the trenches, the disease, the constant and maddening shelling, and the death, dismemberment, and maiming all around. The picture that arises out of the constant repitition of one account after another, is senseless, sickening, wasteful and pointless tragedy.

There are also excerpts of better-known memoires, particularly from Churchill, TE Lawrence, Foch, and finally, in a 33-page indulgence at the very end of the book, from Douglas Haig. Coming after 450 pages of slaughter and annihilation, so much of it caused by stupid and unimaginative "leadership" by such as Haig, this final summary of lessons learned and recap of the war effort as led by himself is enough to sicken one. It remains a mystery why this man was not lynched by his own soldiers.

The heros of the book are the average soldier in the field, bearing the brunt of the savagery day after day, dealing with conditions no animal could survive in, regardless of which side of the conflict they were on. For Lewis, there is essentially no difference in the experiences of a French vs a German vs an English vs a Russian soldier. Lewis does not deal in politics or assigning 'blame' to anyone, but rather deals at the micro level with the plight of everyman. The impact is crushing. One comes away from the book with a full and complete understanding of the old saying about the British army, 'lions led by donkeys.'

It's a powerful book and well worth the time invested. Lewis' spare editing and insightful though brief comments add to the wealth of material presented here as well, and overall has done an impressive job.

The Japanese Mind: Understanding Contemporary Culture

ASIN: 0824829646

Book Description

In postindustrial societies, people must consciously define their individuality through the choices they make. Recently, death has become yet another realm of personal choice, as well as an occasional arena for political debate, making a "good death" one in which we die in our "own way." Does culture matter in these decisions? Final Days represents a new perspective on end-of-life decision-making, arguing that culture does make a difference but not as a checklist of customs or as the source of a moral code. The final stage of life is as rooted as any other in political and economic constraints and social relationships. Policy, technology, and institutions—as well as biology—set limits on what is possible, defining the set of options from which people choose. Culture provides a vocabulary of words, metaphors, and images that can be drawn on to interpret experiences and create a sense of what it means to die well.

Grounded in rich ethnographic data, the book offers a superb examination of how policy and meaning frame the choices Japanese make about how to die. As an essay in descriptive bioethics, it engages an extensive literature in the social sciences and bioethics to examine some of the answers people have constructed to end-of-life issues. Like their counterparts in other postindustrial societies, Japanese find no simple way of handling situations such as disclosure of diagnosis, discontinuing or withholding treatment, organ donation, euthanasia, and hospice. Through interviews and case studies in hospitals and homes, Susan Orpett Long offers a window on the ways in which "ordinary" people respond to serious illness and the process of dying.

Moving beyond stereotypes of stylized samurai violence and Buddhist meditation as Japanese cultural models of dying, Long offers fresh insights into how experiential and social factors mediate between formal cultural rules and what people do. Given the existence of various culturally legitimate scripts on how to die well and the complex nature of human relationships, she makes a convincing and original argument that ambivalence need not be viewed as anomalous. Indeed, ambiguity and a diversity of views are not obstacles to the moral life of a society, but rather are the raw material in postindustrial societies from which people construct meaningful deaths and thus meaningful lives.

Book Description

Beginning of the End

The world was stunned and saddened in 1995 when Israel's prime minister, Yitzhak Rabin, was cruelly and coldheartedly struck down by an assassin's bullet. Rabin, a patriot and warrior for Israel's freedom, became a martyr for peace. In this book, Dr. John Hagee helps readers understand Rabin's assassination and how it fits into centuries-old prophecies that are recorded in the Bible.

Final Dawn Over Jerusalem

Pastor John Hagee has long believed that the Holy Land holds the key to unlocking the secrets of the future. He never dreamed that his life would change the night he took a bold stand against terrorism and anti-Semitism in his hometown. Though his life was threatened, his property destroyed, and his peace of mind rocked, Hagee continued to support the people of prophecy and found his eyes opened to unimaginable horrors and unspeakable joys. In his dealings with the nation of Israel, the true people of prophecy, Hagee has uncovered secret treasures of spiritual insights that are available to all believers and are a blueprint for the rapidly approaching end times. In this book, Hagee maps out the road ahead and shows readers how to equip themselves for the final moments of history.

Day of Deception

Day of Deception is a powerful and provocative expose of the deception at work in America's government, schools, media, culture, and even in our churches. "America is deceived," says John Hagee. "Jesus Christ prophesied four times in Matthew 24 that the cardinal indicator of the terminal generation would be deception. We are deceived-by Satan and his witchcraft." Hagee says it's time to counterattack Satan and his lies, and it's time to take America back to biblical principles. In this book, he calls readers to discern truth from falsehood in these last days-and to appropriate God's mighty power so that we can see through Satan's schemes and emerge victorious from his attacks.

A true end-time PROFIT!.......2006-01-30

For an accurate biblical view of Israel read or listen to, "The Future of Israel" by John MacArthur.

More end-times drivel designed to enrich the author.......2005-07-30

John Hagee is just another tin-horn preacher who has found a profitable niche in peddling his view of the end-times psychodrama. These books contain the usual text out of context Bible quotes and literal interpretations that are unique to Hagee, Hal Lindsey and other end-times hucksters. Hagee serves up the usual hate diatribes against Muslims in this book as well as his idolatry of Israel and its unique role in the end of the world. Hate is an important part of this book and his brand of "Christianity." He basically will keep writing the same book over and over as long as their are people willing to be duped by his "prophecy". For all the poor people who waste their time and money on this garbage, I am reminded of what Billy Graham said regarding the endtimes: "the world ends when you die."

Wow..........2005-07-27

.... you can get all three of these wacky books in one neat volume! Doesn't this hurt the bottom line at Hagee Ministries? What, has the pool of his mesmerized followers begun to dry up? It reminds me of when the band, KISS (aka Kings In Satan's Service) re-packaged their first three albums as "The Originals." At least in that case you had an extra track of "Rock and Roll All Nite", assuming you already had the album "Dressed To Kill." On the other hand, maybe Hagee Ministries was using the KISS model, assuming that it wouldn't hurt to have his drivel repeated in one handy, compact volume of fear.

Great books!.......2004-01-20

John Hagee never ceases to amaze me with his knowledge and devotion to the Word of God.

If you want to learn about the Bible from one of the world's greatest preachers, I recommend his books and sermons always.

Heart-breaking Truths.......2001-09-06

Even though this book start's with a girl's disappearance and ends with a murder trial, it's not really a mystery. Instead, it's a peek into the lives and thoughts of dozens of characters in one small town. Each character is treated with respect, even when they don't respect themselves. With many short chapters, End Over End is a quick read, but it will resonate with you long afterward.

A challenging gem of a mystery.......2001-07-10

This book, which is built around the murder of a 14-yr. old girl, is remarkable. The short chapter approach, which navigates unpredictably among numerous points of view, kept me interested and tense and expectantly galloping forward. The effect of the many points of view was prismatic, and allowed me to experience the story in its many facets. The characters are portrayed with compassion, the imagined details of their lives making them seem familiar: like family, like neighbors, like ourselves. The way the author weaves the characters together through and around the death of this young woman reminded me of the interconnectedness of all lives. The fact that we are left to decide for ourselves "whodunit" brings us face-to-face with the elusiveness of truth--a humbling, even painful, experience. Also challenging is having to decide what and who is truly evil, since the writer delivers the characters to us in true-to-life complexity. Readers of this book who hear news stories or read newspaper accounts of tragedies similar to the one protrayed in this book will find it more difficult to jump to conclusions about "whodunit," or make assumptions about the people involved. For making us more compassionate, challenging us to think for ourselves, and all the while entertaining us with a well-paced and well-written book, Kennedy deserves our gratitude, and our congratulations for a first-rate accomplishment.

Steamy Summer Read.......2001-06-30

Kate Kennedy fills this whodounit with enough steam to heat a Russian bath house in January. Best of all, try to guess the surprise ending. I didn't. Maybe you will. But I wouldn't bet on it.

This girl can write! A must read on the beach this summer.

Just don't let your young children near it. Parental guidance advised. Hot!

The Other Our Town.......2001-05-09

There are some books that tap into an under used vein of human compassion. Such a book is Kate Kennedy's "End Over End". Set in rural New England, the book traces the multi-layered, intersecting lives of a community caught in the net of a small town tragedy. Ivory Towle, a fourteen year old girl is murdered, her body found months later by town boys walking their dog behind a neighbor's farm. In this carefully woven story, Kate Kennedy realizes the lives of people often overlooked, threading the needle and drawing each image perfectly through the eye. You see Ivory, rebellious, dreamy caught in a growing-up-too-fast world yearning for Blake, the boy she's forbidden to see. Here are the teenagers gathering at the gravel pit lit with car headlights, listening to heavy metal or country, radios blasting, stoned and plenty more where that came from. You meet the parents as driven and lost in their way as their kids, trying to keep it together in tiny ranch homes or trailers, doing shift work, their dreams cinched by the mill or the factory. You meet everyone in town who has been touched by this event in staccato chapters that pile up images, dialogue, detective detail all toward the final resolution refusing to leave any stone unturned as the crime is sifted through the eyes of everyone it touches, victims and slayers alike. Though this book is set in rural New England, it is any small town where the roads peter out to mailboxes, where the kids have a gravel pit or Spangler's Store to hang out in and grab a bus to school and think maybe a high school diploma will be their ticket out and, if not, marriage and babies and now the boys don't even have the draft anymore to make men of them. In "End Over End" Kate Kennedy has revealed an Our Town every bit as dense and accurate as Wilder's. Here are the mothers, fathers and children as well as the teachers, the lawyers, the police, the undertaker, the newspaper man. Each has a voice and a claim on the world before us and each is given time center stage. If you need good guys and bad guys with the case neatly packaged and solved, this is probably not the book for you. But, if you want to finish a final page and have the very last scene, indeed, the very last word swim before your eyes like the after image of a compelling dream, then, by all means, this is the book for you.

Book Description

Few constitutional disputes maintain as powerful a grip on the public mind as the battle over the Second Amendment. The National Rifle Association and gun-control groups struggle unceasingly over a piece of the political landscape that no candidate for the presidency--and few for Congress--can afford to ignore. But who's right? Will it ever be possible to settle the argument? In Out of Range, one of the nation's leading legal scholars takes a calm, objective look at this bitter debate. Mark V. Tushnet brings to this book a deep expertise in the Constitution, the Supreme Court, and the role of the law in American life. He breaks down the different positions on the Second Amendment, showing that it is a mistake to stereotype them. Tushnet's exploration is honest and nuanced; he finds the constitutional arguments finely balanced, which is one reason the debate has raged for so long. Along the way, he examines various experiments in public policy, from both sides, and finds little clear evidence for the practical effectiveness of any approach to gun safety and prosecution. Of course, he notes, most advocates of the right to keep and bear arms agree that it should be subject to reasonable regulation. Ultimately, Tushnet argues, our view of the Second Amendment reflects our sense of ourselves as a people. The answer to the debate will not be found in any holy writ, but in our values and our vision of the nation. This compact, incisive examination offers an honest and thoughtful guide to both sides of the argument, pointing the way to solutions that could calm, if not settle, this bitter dispute.

I actually got a chance to read the manuscript. Typical Tushnet. I.e., smart, incisive, scrupulously fair. If you want to cut through the overheated rhetoric you're going to hear in the next few months -- assuming the Court grants DC's cert petition in the gun control case -- you should read this book. Actually, you should read if you're at all interested in the gun control debate.

Very, very impressive.......2006-08-11

I think it took a lot of guts for an upholster to write a book like this. I was very impressed that someone without any experience could write so well. The editing may not have been perfect, but I don't think the "Divine" expects perfection (which the book is very clear about). Anyone expecting God to edit His own work is just plain ridiculous. The content was extremely enlightening, and definitely God sent. I hope this author continues to write, I think she has an important message.

This needs edited badly. .......2006-08-11

Just on the back cover of this book, there are six errors of spelling, punctuation, and usage. If this book was truly from the Divine, surely He would edit his work. The fluidity of reading this book was sketchy at best, and positively rambling at worst. In order to affect people, a book must be tightly edited; that demands respect. I think winning the game of life must not require these demands, but reading the book does.

It filled me with confidence.......2006-08-07

My father died last year . He was my best friend. After reading this book I stopped blaming God and I started praising his name. Now I know that my life has meaning even if I can't talk to my dad and receive the encouragement that I need to live. Now I feel like I can let go of the past and march forward with confidence so I can win my game of life just like my dad won his.

Great book!.......2006-08-02

Demons and angels, self-writing typewriters, elaborate games. You have to read it for yourself. There is not a dull moment.

Best book ever! .......2006-08-02

Best book ever! I am raising three kids, who are three and under. This book helped me deal with the frustration and loneliness of motherhood by encouraging me not to be so hard on myself. I realized that as long as I was doing my best, that was good enough, and I would succeed the tasks God had set out for me.
