 Excellent Book -- Get It! January 4, 2009
This book is a must read for anyone who wants to make sense of the current events in light of Biblical prophesy. The pieces of the puzzle come together in such a clear way when presented in light of God's truth. I plan on buying a copy for every member of my extended family.
 It's the End of the World as We Know It...not. January 3, 2009

As so many evangelicals of his genre, Jeremiah has made millions of dollars writing books about what he believes the Bible means for the rest of us. Tell me, Good Reverend. How will you explain your zillion dollar home in Southern California and your luxury lifestyle to Jesus when he comes back and finds you basking in your wealthy spoils? His church, Shadow Mountain Community Cult in El Cajon rakes in a fortune from yuppie Christians who need a megachurch and a leader like Jeremiah to lead them because evangelicals don't think for themselves. As I've said so many times before to these mental midgets, the Bible is not your book alone to interpret. But apparently panic sells. And the rapture is big business. I just wish Jesus would come back and take these merry fools back to heaven so the rest of us free thinkers can have the planet to ourselves. Anybody remember Hale Bopp?
A Timely Commentary on Current Events from a Biblical Perspective January 1, 2009
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Dr. Jeremiah has produced a book that covers many of the major prphetic events remaining unfullfilled in Scripture. For those of us living in these unsettled days, such a guide to events can be helpful and reassuring.
Just looking about as things happen, one would be inclined to think that things were increasingly out of control; terrorism, warfare, natural disasters, famine, plus many other contemporary realities can all be causes for alarm.
The Bible tells us that all of these things must come to pass and as we witness them happening all around us we are compelled to beieve that we must now be living in the times foretold in Scripture.
This should be a source of joy and blessing as it would indicate that the return of the Lord Jesus Christ is closer than ever. It has never been more important to "walk by faith" than it is today.
If you're looking for reassurance that God is in control, this is a good place to start.
Biblical Prophecy - 10 Things We Need to Know December 29, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
What in the world is going on? Now there's a question only God can answer, and fortunately He's given us some great clues in His Word.
By reading Dr. David Jeremiah's book "What in the World is Going On?" I soaked up 10 prophetic clues that enlightened me about happenings in Israel, about the price of oil and offered insight from the books of Isaiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Matthew and Revelation.
This book is not one to sit down in one night and read through, but rather I made notes, looked at the references from Scripture, and discussed the concepts with my husband. And I quickly learned I need a better understanding of history in general as well as the Old Testament to grab all this book has to offer.
With the constant reminder from Dr. Jeremiah, to watch, work and wait; I spent weeks relishing this book. It was a great reminder that despite the headlines, or how chaotic life appears; God is dependable and His Word is reliable.
Did you know that from 1901 to 2007, a total of 777 Nobel Prizes and 176 of those were awarded to Jews. That's less than two-thirds of 1 percent of the total population, which means 22.6 percent of all the Nobel Prizes went to Jews. Why do I feel this important?
Look at Genesis 12: 1-3, where God made a binding covenant with Abraham, who was the father of the Jewish nation. Israel is important because the fulfillment of God's covenant with Abraham will affect every one of us.
Then the book takes me through America's quest for oil, to modern Europe, to Islamic Terrorism, to the Rapture of the Church, to seeing if America has a role in prophecy, to the Antichrist, to a new axis of evil, to Armageddon, to the return of Jesus the King.
I will keep this book handy, to re-read the chapters and to soak up more information, statistics and details. There is so much to absorb, one reading is not enough for this type of book. It was hard journey for me, in that I found myself ignorant of what is really going on in the world. It was a great reminder that I should strive to understand more of God's prophetic messages in His Word.
Dr. Jeremiah summed it up nicely when he said, God intends for people to recognize Him as the Lord God of heaven, whose name is holy, whose glory fills the universe, and whom men must recognize as sovereign if they are to find the peace and joy He desires for His people. (See page 185).
I highly recommend this book. Dr. Jeremiah takes the current events and shows how they connect to Bible prophecies. So much information, yet he writes the details in a way even I can understand them. And no, I won't lend this book out, I expect to read it again soon.
A Book All Should Read December 25, 2008
New York Times best selling author Dr. David Jeremiah's newest release is, "What in the World is Going On: Ten Prophetic Clues You Cannot Afford to Ignore." I'm a fan of both Dr. Jeremiah and prophecy, so I started this book with the expectation I would not be disappointed.
I wasn't.
This book is a treasure. It's in simple language explaining both Biblical example and prophetic statements that are typically not easy to communicate. I found the book easy to read and comprehend. Dr. Jeremiah used practical examples we all can relate to, historical stories, political examples and the most important proof of all, God's word. You do not need a Seminary or Political degree to relish this book.
I believe this book is definitely for those who call on Jesus as Savior, for those who are wondering, and for those who do not have a personal relationship with Jesus nor care to.
For those who do not nor care to, the reader will most likely walk away feeling overwhelmed and possibly in despair. What I love about Dr. Jeremiah is his style. He gives the facts as the Bible shares them, and instead of passing off condemnation, he offers hope through a personal relationship in Christ. Again, it's not David Jeremiah's sermon, it's Biblical.
For those who have a relationship with Christ, my guess is you will long for the day to be with the Lord even more, but you will have a heavy heart for those you love who don't share that faith.
You might also want to argue some of the points, but again, I find between the Bible, history, political and current events, we can't duck in the sand anymore. When I think of everything Israel has been through, I know I only have a glimpse, yet I feel the United States should be following the military and security examples Israel out of necessity has in place. The world's troubles can be traced right back to the Bible. People want to know the end. Well although there is mystery to Revelation, there is so much in our technology and world affairs that are making it clear. David Jeremiah is right. We have clues we cannot afford to ignore.
Here are the clues he shares:
The Israel Connection
The Crude Awakening
Modern Europe...Ancient Rome
Islamic Terrorism
Vanished Without a Trace
Does America Have a Role in Prophecy?
When One Man Rules the World
The New Axis of Evil
Arming for Armageddon
The Return of the King
Also: Jewish population statistics and June 2007 Conventional Oil Reserves by Country.
This book by Thomas Nelson publishers is a must read for all. Even if readers disagree, it hopefully would send the reader, no matter what their faith background is, to the Bible to see for themselves.
