Discover the Bible-Based Truth about
the End Times You Can’t Afford to Ignore
These days, more people than ever are looking to the Book of Revelation for answers. The only book of the Bible that Jesus personally signed as author, the Book of Revelation holds the key to understanding our future. But its complex and multilayered meanings are often misunderstood. Now, author and Bible expert Charles Massegee unlocks the secrets of Revelation to expose the life-changing messages you need to know. You’ll learn:
•The 7 secrets to understanding the Book of Revelation
•The most important symbols and definitions that will change everything you thought you knew about the Bible
•Which prophecies in the Book of Revelation have already come true – and what it means for the future
•Why we are now living in the so-called “end times”
•What to expect during the last days and why the coming of Christ is something to celebrate – not fear
•The evidence showing Islam’s connection to the antichrist and the last days
•Much, much more
Appropriate for a Christian scholar or newcomer to Jesus, this accessible book is based on solid scriptural evidence and analysis and skilled insight into today’s news and culture.
My mother has a habit of checking out the books I get in, and removing from my desk any she wants to read. Often I don’t realize it until I get ready to read it. This was one of those books. She kept it hid in her room until she was finished with it.
My Mother’s Thoughts:
The Rise and Fall of the Antichrist is one of those books that can’t be read in a single sitting. I especially enjoyed the fact that everything was backed up with scripture. A lot of research has gone into this book. I agree that we are living n the last days. Once my daughter has written her review and gives the book back to me I will recommend it to all of my friends and my pastor. This is a must read for all Christians and those searching.
My Thoughts:
One of my favorite parts of this whole book was something that has puzzled me and fascinated me from the day I first heard it mentioned. Hi section on what the number 666 means is very clear to me now. I’d never thought of the 3 sixes as standing for the unholy trinity. I also liked the explanation that seven is the number of completeness and Satan and the antichrist will never come near that so the number 6 is their number.
My mom was right. This is definitely one of those books that you must read and study. I have been fascinated with Revelations since my early years of sitting in church. I didn’t always understand what was going on, so I sat and read Revelations. I am a visual person so the pictures I painted in my head were often very literal and confusing. This book has done what all of my years of study have not been able to do, explain in a manner I understand, the End Times.
