What our customer's say!

"Kingdom Come", I love this book.. I have the whole series of Left Behind Books now. It keeps you on the edge of your seat trying to guess whats going to happen next.

"Steven Janda, Author of Ready or Not, Here I Come", Jenkins and LaHaye have both overlooked the primary truth of the gospel of Christ: Jesus said we must be ready for his coming and if we are not, we will witness the Christians who are ready enter into the kingdom of God and ourselves cast out into a place of chastening with stripes which is the great tribulation. The scriptures used to support the defective majority view that the resurrection and the rapture are the same event are I Thes 4 and I Cor. 15, but these scriptures refer to the resurrection only which Jesus said is on the "last day" and "immediately after the tribulation". The rapture occurs at the beginning of the tribulation where the antichrist is revealed and then one is taken and another is left. Jesus portrays a negligence setting in the church and the world when he appears unexpectedly and one is taken and one is left. It comes as a snare upon the whole world. From Matthew 24 and 25, we see this same event is connected with the parables of the virgins, the stewards, and the goodman of the house. The church has overlooked all these parables. All of these parables point to the truth that judgment must first come to the house of God. Christ will decide who is worthy to escape the tribulation and he specifically instructed us to pray accordingly. My book, Ready or Not, Here I Come, is the only book in circulation (that I know of) which discusses over 30 parables and illustrations given by Christ that portray this truth repeatedly. I can see now why I believe God prompted me to write my book. The church has failed to preach the true message of the coming of Christ. Why the church has failed to see what has been right before their eyes for 2000 years is a mystery. Ready or Not, Here I Come

"disappointed...", I eagerly awaited every book in the "Left Behind" series, and read every one on the edge of my seat. The final installation, "Kingdom Come", left me disappointed. The book was boring, and the end was hurried. I don't feel like it was even written by the same authors or part of the same story as the rest of the series. I expected it to be as thrilling and climactic as th others, but was let down.

"Thiller, Biblically based", This is the last book in the Left Behind series of books. It is really well written and is a great read. All the books in the series except The Glorious Appearing (the next to the last book in the series) and this one I would give a five star rating. Something happens in the book before these two that I didn't like. So the rating is purely subjective. Actually all the books are great and each one is more thilling and more frightening than the next.

"Great book!", Am halfway through the book and once again, can't put it down. I'm spoiled by Amazon's quick shipping too!

Read this reviews before You buy...

"Reading is Fundamental", I absolutly Love Lahaye& Jenkins but I will not be getting another novel on CD. It seemed to have went very fast and besides it's nothing like reading it. I would recommend getting the book if your able to read.

"Should've left well enough alone.", DO NOT GET THIS BOOK!! I was so totally disappointed that I wanted to throw it out. I wasted $35 on this. The other books were, for the most part, great. this one totally disengaged and was nothing like the rest. This, in my opinion, was clearly a ploy to make some more money off the franchise. It wasn't written well and the plot was all over the place. Things were going on that didn't make any sense. A lot of the book was Bible stories, in there entirity it seemed, re-told by the profits and the saints. I have a Bible and I can read the story of Noah and the Ark in that.
They tried to cover a thousand years in one book. Not a good idea. All in all, not worth even reading. Many characters were completely left out, not good either. You're better off reading the Glorious Appearing and leaving that as the last of the series. If not, prepare for annoyance and disappointment.

"OK", I wasn't disappointed, but, this book was not as good as the others in the series.

"Very disappointing. ", I have read the entire Left Behind series and the prequel "The Rapture" So when I found out that this final book in the series had been released, I was very anxious to get a copy. A friend gave me a Barnes and Noble book card as a late Christmas gift, and this is one of the books I bought. I was debating between two different books, and I finally decided to purchase this one. I have really enjoyed reading the other books in the series, and had high expecations for this book as well. But quite frankly, this book fell far short of my expections.

Just for the record, yes, I am a born again believe. And no, I do not agree with every single thing in the Left Behind series. I believe the Bible. On the one hand, I think it's important that people remember these books are fiction. They are not and have never claimed to be non fiction. But at the same time, fiction is a very powerful and effective tool. It can be used to communicate truth. But it can also do great harm. The Left behind books, for the most part, are action packed and keep you on the edge of your seat. You really come to care what happens to the characters. While I firmly believe that the End Times prophesies of Scripture will come to pass, I think it is the heighth of foolishness to try to argue how exactly things will come to pass. God seldom, if ever, does things they way we expect Him to. Jesus made it clear that is equally foolish to try to predict a specific date or year when the end of the world will occur. There are some things that are just not for us to know ahead of time. I mean, look at all the prophesies about the Messiah that were filled in Jesus Christ. Jesus was not at all what people expected the Messiah to be. I think the same thing will happen as End Time Events begin to unfold. I believe that a good rule of thumb is to live like the End of the World will happen in your lifetime, but plan like it won't happen in your life time. I cringe when I hear stories about people who have basically given up on life because they believe the End of the World is emminent.

Oh....now, my review of the book.

I honestly wish there was something positive I could say about "Kingdom Come" but I honestly can't think of a single positive thing to write. This book was a major disappointment. This book never really captured my interest. I basically had to force myself to keep reading. There were many times where I would just toss it aside, and not pick it up for several days. This book was very slow going for me.

It also left a bad taste in my mouth for several reasons.

First, I was excited when I read that Noah, Joshua and Caleb, and David were going to tell their stories. I was really excited to read those parts. But again, I was disappointed. I thought the stories didn't really add much to the account of Scripture. In fact, why read the stories in a book like this, when you read the story in Scripture. It just seems like authors were grasping at straws.

Second, I was also greatly disturbed by the authors' claim that Jesus will re-instate the old system of sacrifices in the Millenial Kingdom. That has absolutely no basis in Scripture whatsoever. In fact, Jesus made it clear that He came to fulfill the Law. The Law was simply a interim system for until the Messiah came. Which He did. In the person of Jesus Christ. To me, it seems like the idea that the old system will be reinstated is like saying that Jesus' sacrifice on the Cross was insufficent. What purpose could their possibly be for the ressurection of the Law?

I was also disturbed by the character of Quasim. After all, Bruce, Buck, Chloe, Ray and the other members of the Tribulation Force had the discernment to recognize Nicholae Carpathia as the AntiChrist. But they couldn't see through the facade of someone pretending to be a believer? I find that really hard to believe.

I also have a problem with the idea that all unbelievers will only live to be 100. The verse from Scripture they use to support this idea is clearly taken out of context. I think it is a very dangerous thing to build a theology based only on 2 or two verses. Like it or not, in the life, we are never going to fully understand either God or the Bible. God will bust out of any box we try to put Him in.

I loved the book the "Glorious Appearing" In my opinion, this book should never have been written. The authors should have quit while they were ahead.

I echo the advice of a earlier reviewer. If you are a fan of the Left Behind Series and have been wanting to this read this book....don't. I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone. I wish that I had spent my gift money on another book.

"Jerry Jenkins: Master of the Missed Oppurtunity", This isn't so much a review of in-depth thought; it's just a few impressions.

I read this book on a flight back from Sweden, and it was pretty interesting for the first few pages. I didn't necessarily agree with the theology, but it was interesting nonetheless.

Then the first death happens and things get very interesting; girl dies, people realize that there is still deception and evil in the world, even without satan, and then, ultimately, the interest lessens. This is due mainly to the fact the book's main conflict centers on a friggin' daycare.

A good (not great, but good) prequel trilogy about the upheaval of world government, rise of antichrist and subsequent rapture. One awesome book about being 'LEFT BEHIND'. Nine entertaining books about the struggles of living during the tribulation. Two more really cool books about the war of war of Armageddon and return of Christ. And then this flat, missed oppurtunity.

Don't get me wrong, the book touches goodness a few times throughout. There are some really moving scenes with Abdullah. Other than that, though, the book SCREAMS boredom, which is funny because LaHaye's theology dictates that Jenkins has to envision the most boring and unexciting vision of post-Christ world that I think anyone could ever imagine. It felt like an insult, as a Christian, to read this. Then again, why write a book without much conflict? Well, they try. Try is the key word here, because the central villains are some illogical atheists in France (who attempt to overthrow a government that is run by the well-established and pretty well-known, invincible, undefeatable Lord Jesus.. it's stupid) and this punk kid named Qasim, who is even more of an insult to those people who read the ENTIRE series, in order, every one of them (including the prequels). To go from the smarmy and over-the-top Nicolae, who would gladly drop the blade of the neck of his mother and bite out the eyes of children and animals, to this new little turd of a teenage punk, it was just such a step down.

ANOTHER complaint... and it kind of ties into the Qasim complaint... is that this book leads up to the FINAL final battle, against the lord of pain, the man of the evil hour, the host with the horrible most, the satanman. And well, I'm sure someone's already spoiled it for you, but if not, let's just say that I almost forgot about him by the time I got to his part. Details below:

SPOILER ALERT


Satan, master of evil, is written pretty well for the short time he's in here, and Jenkins is great at building up the conflict against...

oh, wait, maybe I should have stated, REALLY REAAALLLY short time that he's in the book...

Did you see the subject heading? Jerry Jenkins = Tool of LaHaye and master of missed oppurtunities.

I've forgiven Jenkins before for skimming over the most hotly anticipated parts of his novels, but this.. this is unforgivable. Basically, we spend over 300 pages wondering whether or not some kids in a daycare are going to be compromised by some insecure little tool named Qasim, who's more upset about not getting the booty of the hot Christian Greek girl than he is about anything else, and darn it, he's out for vengeance! A whole series of subversion, explosions, spirit warfare, angels, demons, techno-gadgetry, crumbling buildings, rivers of blood and really technical explanations of how to escape disaster in Chicago allllll leads to a compromised daycare. By God, it's epic.

So after we trudge all that high school melodrama (which is really all this book is), we FINALLY get to the main event of the entire series: Jesus v. Satan. And in typical Jenkins style, he takes a steaming dump all over the opportunity to give us something special. It sucks; and what sucks even worse is that I read these books all over again when I heard that a new final novel was coming out. Needless to say, I wasn't happy with the outcome. I mean, you can kind of pretend that the ending of the book (and series) is good if you read it slow, I mean, really slow; which you will need to since it's over faster than the Rapture. I can understand that it's deliberate in its brevity since they are fighting the human form of God and all, but come on.. they could have tried harder. This epic series has an end so abrupt it's insane. They had a goldmine of conflict for this book, and they chose to focus elsewhere. Epic fail.

Plus, when you take into account the 100 year death thing for the unbelievers, well, the retardation increases. What's the point of conflict when the unbelievers die out so quickly? And if they die so quickly, then just how the heck did such a massive army (in the multimillions, people) assimilate at the end? It makes no logical sense. What were they thinking???

So, now that I've read the whole series, I can try to give you an idea of how they ranked with me. Opinions will no doubt differ, but nonetheless, here it is.

Kingdom Come FINAL

How about that?, haha.

My final thought: if you want to read the series, go for it - it's good stuff. However, when the war in 'Glorious Appearing' is over, skip the whole friggin ending. Then, pick up 'Kingdom Come' and start reading around the third-to-last chapter, basically when the war with satan starts. There you go. Much better! All the confusing and stupidly drawn-out contrivances are skipped and you get to the good stuff. Then, if you dare, you can go back and read the deleted scenes, haha.

Still, the book wasn't so bad that it ruined the series. Like I said, it's just a missed oppurtunity.

Alright, thanks for reading!
