Fourth Reich

This was a gift book from someone in my church.
It sounds like it might be German, right?
It isn't.

So, I reluctantly started this book on Sunday and it is hard to put down!

It is an eschatology book, on steroids.
Imagine The late great planet earth, only written by someone obviously Christian.
Nothing would surprise me more than to find either Hal Linsay or CC Carlson in Heaven!
Much less Dwight Pentecost!

What do they have in common?
Well, Carlson wrote much of TLGPE and was Pentecost's understanding of the end times.
Yeah, he spearheaded the purposeful obscuring of prophesy for generations of Christians!
Carlson, had her own agenda.
And in many ways Lindsay was more a victim of bad theology - just like the generation he helped mislead.

Oh, that is not to say that Robert Van Kampen got it all right.
But it is one of the better books on end times fiction.

Even though I am only 2/3's the way through the book - I think it is a keeper!

ISBN: 0-8007-5650-9

More importantly it reignited a fire in me.
Not sure to why or what.
But, I sense a real change inside of me ...
