Agents of the Apocalypse: A Riveting Look at the Key Players of the End Times by David Jeremiah
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
“Who Will Usher in Earth’s Final Days? Are we living in the end times? Is it possible that the players depicted in the book of Revelation could be out in force today? And if they are, would you know how to recognize them?
In Agents of the Apocalypse, noted prophecy expert Dr. David Jeremiah does what no prophecy expert has done before. He explores the book of Revelation through the lens of its major players—the exiled, the martyrs, the elders, the victor, the king, the judge, the 144,000, the witnesses, the false prophet, and the beast.
One by one, Dr. Jeremiah delves into their individual personalities and motives, and the role that each plays in biblical prophecy. Then he provides readers with the critical clues and information needed to recognize their presence and power in the world today.
The stage is set, and the curtain is about to rise on Earth’s final act. Will you be ready?”
Dr. Jeremiah has taken an interesting approach to writing this book. He tackles the 10 key “players” of the end times in a unique format for each chapter. Each chapter starts with a fictional story that brings about a dramatization to make the Scriptures come to life. He then brings the reader the Scriptures from the Book of Revelation, as well as other Scriptures, to explain and teach us about those key players. In my opinion, with the interesting use of dramatization and Scripture teaching together, the reader can most assuredly see how the end time events will come into place.
I especially enjoy the conclusion of this book: “As we conclude this study of the key players in the book of Revelation, only one question remains: Where do you fit into the story? Have you accepted the living water that God offers in the person of Christ? If so, you can be assured that no matter what you may encounter in the days ahead, your earthly life and your eternity are in His hands. As a result, you are an overcomer. Let this book of Revelation be a glorious confirmation of the fact that you will never thirst again. If you have not taken a drink of that water, I encourage you to do so today. The Bibles says, “Whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13). Call upon Him and quench your thirst, both now and forever.“ (Page 273)
