Review:
For the last twenty-years, there has been a slew of "apocalypse" or "end of times" fiction & non-fiction books being published. I have read a few of these books, including the Left Behind series. You don't have to be a believer to become interested in the book of Revelation, as I know a few non-believers that have read a few books on the "end of times."
Released last week to bookstores is Agents of the Apocalypse by Dr. David Jeremiah. It isn't his first book based on Revelation, but it is his first "end times" book that uses fictionalized stories "to drive the message of Revelation into the human heart." The author received assistance from Thomas Williams with the ten fictional stories - The Exile, The Martyrs, The 144,000, The Two Witnesses, The Dragon, The Beast from the Sea, The Beast from the Earth, The Victor, The King and The Judge. Each chapter is divided into two sections - the fictional story followed by "The Scripture Behind The Story."
With the use of fictional stories, the author is able to explain the main events that occurred in the Bible to believers and non-believers alike. This is also a great way to explain the meaning behind scriptures and tell the stories that contains the biblical prophecy.
With all the tabloids, cable news and news blogs, a person looking for real facts on the apocalypse will be really confused with all the misinterpretation of the Bible. Dr. David Jeremiah cleverly puts together an unique book that explains how the apocalypse was told in the scriptures. I have read a few other biblical prophecy non-fiction titles, but each book was based on the authors' point-of-views of what the apocalypse means to them. Overall, Agents of the Apocalypse is one of the better books written on the subject, which gives the truth to the readers.
