Jerusalem Countdown: A Warning to the World

probably one of the most important books I've ever read, very educational. Unfortunately the cover has a doomsday photograph which kind of turned me off, but the actual book is about much more than Iran trying to one day wipe Israel off the face of the earth. Of interest is that he discusses in Ezekiel 38-39 where it refers to an Arab coalition of nations that will invade Israel. That coalition will be decimated by the hand of God on the hills of Israel. He also discusses that the bible tell us that a man will come out of the European Union and will try to resolve the Islamic/Israeli dispute. This political orator and charismatic personality will make a covenant with Israel for seven years guaranteeing their safety and protection as a nation. In Scripture he is called the Antichrist. When Ezekiel 38 opens, the nation of Israel has been given a covenant by this political leader, who is the head of the European Union. The Jewish people will be confident that the European powers will protect them from any outside aggressor or invader.This book even answered some questions for me that were confusing, for example we've all heard the verse about "unless those days were shortened (the great tribulation) no flesh would be saved but for the elect's sake those days will be shortened" Matthew 24:22. That always seems to be a confusing verse for Christians when they debate pre-trib versus post-trib etc. Hagee presents the possibility that the elect are the Jewish people who have been temporary blinded to the fact that Jesus was indeed the Messiah, but that they are still His chosen race. Hagee believes that Christians will not be here during the great tribulation, but that some of the Jews will be. He explains why today's current Jews should still be considered God's chosen people even though we Christians (Gentiles) have been grafted into their tree of life and we have eternal life also. He also lays out a plan for the future of Israel. It is going to be so interesting to see how the current day war situations in Israel get played out. Just keep in mind that if a charismatic leader from the European Union tries to guarantee Israel's safety for seven years that THAT person is associated with Antichrist. Even if you don't agree with everything presented in the book, it has some very educational Israeli history and it is good to be up to speed with the details about the nation of Israel.

Arrived in a timely manner. Book is clean and in crisp condition. Great book!

I am writing this after reading negative reviews. I just read the last portion of the book as a study, taking a long time to digest what he is saying. I know very little about the author but am an evangelical Christian.My understanding after studying the book is that Jews may have their eyes opened by the Holy Spirit. I don't remember reading anywhere that anyone would be saved aside from hearing the Gospel and believing it.I found this book very helpful in confirming Bible prophecy. I don't agree with everything Pastor Hagee writes. My biggest concern with his book is that he keeps saying he is writing the book "in April 2005," and then saying things such as, "In September, 2005...." While I realize it took months to write the book, it appears to me that much of it was written much later than spring 2005.I appreciated seeing Pastor Hagee's perspective, but I will continue studying my Bible, praying, and asking God himself to show me what He wants me to know.

Want to know about the end times, this is the book. Goes into detail about what will happen in the very near future, great reading, you got to have it. It will answer you questions and give you the knowledge about what to expect in the future. You better be ready when this war comes, hope you go in the rapture, you better get Jesus in your life or you will be left behind to fight the anti-Christ. You will have to die for your faith then.

The author has written a very compeling book on an appropriate subject about a which all should be concerned. The author has thread his reader through the line from Abraham to the present day and pointed to the significant areas. The subject matter is very appropriate and are developing just as Dr. Hagee and the bible has indicated they would. This book has only one thing that should have been elaborated. That being Ishmael and how he ties into the Muslim religion. However, this is not a failure of the book and does not keep it from the exelent rating.

This is the first book I have read by John Hagee. I have found it 100% correct as related to what the Bible says is and will happen soon. It shows you that we have very little time before all hell breaks loose on the earth, and the return of Jesus Christ is right at the door and could happen today. I rate this book A+++++

For those of you looking for a concise, knowledgeable understanding of Bible prophesy in view of world events, this is the book for which you have been waiting . John Hagee is a prayerful student of Biblical prophesy and has shared his findings in an exciting book, easily understood and thought-provoking

Wouldn't waste my money on a John Hagee book. Very disappointed.

JH always a good read , remember Jesus said we are not to worry of have fear though ;)

This was good

a good read

Great!

Brilliant and accurate
