Book Review - Agents of the Apocalypse by David Jeremiah

ABOUT THE BOOK:

Who Will Usher in Earth’s Final Days?
Are we living in the end times? Is it possible that the players depicted in the book of Revelation could be out in force today? And if they are, would you know how to recognize them?

In Agents of the Apocalypse, noted prophecy expert Dr. David Jeremiah does what no prophecy expert has done before. He explores the book of Revelation through the lens of its major players—the exiled, the martyrs, the elders, the victor, the king, the judge, the 144,000, the witnesses, the false prophet, and the beast.

One by one, Dr. Jeremiah delves into their individual personalities and motives, and the role that each plays in biblical prophecy. Then he provides readers with the critical clues and information needed to recognize their presence and power in the world today.

The stage is set, and the curtain is about to rise on Earth’s final act. Will you be ready?

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

Dr. David Jeremiah is the senior pastor of Shadow Mountain Community Church in El Cajon, California, and chancellor of San Diego Christian College. He is also the founder of Turning Point, a ministry committed to providing sound Bible teaching through national radio and television broadcasting. Dr. Jeremiah has authored numerous books, including the best-selling "Captured by Grace," "Life Wide Open," "My Heart's Desire," and "Sanctuary."

MY REVIEW:

This book is a combination of fiction and non-fiction. In an effort to help us understand the end times, Dr. Jeremiah weaves a story of characters that are experiencing the apocalypse in an effort to help us understand what the book of Revelation is all about. He also goes through the book of Revelation in a non-fiction way - giving explanation and guidance as to what these prophecies really mean.

I found it very helpful to have the fiction and non-fiction interwoven together. It helped me to understand exactly what would happen and how it would affect those who are experiencing it. My favorite part, though, was the non-fiction parts where Dr. Jeremiah truly explains these Scriptures and it helped me to understand this book of the Bible more fully.

My copy is heavily highlighted because there was so much great information that I wanted to remember. I didn't, nor could I, rush through this book as I had to think about what Dr. Jeremiah was really explaining and I wanted to fully understand it. I have read and studied the book of Revelation many times before, but this book truly gave me a deeper understanding of end time prophecy.

I highly recommend this book as it was easily understood, held my attention and truly was enlightening as to the book of Revelation. It easily deserves 5 out of 5 stars!
