A profoundly decisive change in world history is on the horizon-a transition from governance under fallen man to a government from God Himself. Jesus Christ is going to return and reign over the world with perfect justice. Prophecies in the Bible tell us that due to the rebellion of man against his Maker the time leading up to the second coming of Christ will be intense. In this book, you will find answers to these questions: - What will the last days be like? - What will happen when Jesus returns? - What is the rapture and when will it occur? - How can I prepare for what is coming?
The Bible tells us that when Christ returns, there will be another end-of-the-world type destruction, like Noah's Flood, but with fire. Includes many prophecies from: Book of Enoch, Sibylline Oracles, Apocrypha, more.
God destroyed the world once with a Flood, and the Bible says the next destruction will be with fire at the return of Christ. God is going to send fire from heaven from several different sources; from asteroid impacts, coronal mass ejections, and from a small 2nd sun that will come close enough to Earth to burn us with its flames! Yes, there are in fact many prophecies that reveal this information, going all the way back to the Erythraean Sibyl. These prophecies tell us what the "signs in the sun, moon, and stars" will be before the global destruction hits us. Today we look at a conjunction of planets or blood moons as signs, but they are not signs of the end of the world, because those things have happened many times before and will happen again. No, the signs that Jesus told us about are astonishing, and shocking. Like the prophet Joel said, there will be "wonders" in the sky. This book also presents powerful evidence that a nuclear war will cause the world to be covered with dark clouds, threatening to plunge the world into a nuclear winter. This is the cause of the darkness and clouds at the return of Christ, and the Three Days of Darkness, prophesied mostly, but not only, by Catholics. The three days are the first three days of what will be nuclear winter, except Christ returns with fire that will burn up the black clouds and saves the world. But that fire will itself kill many people. It will be the Day of Judgment for sinners, but the Day of Salvation for the righteous who are alive on Earth. Many people will repent too late to make the Rapture, and it is these who will continue the human race in the Kingdom of God on Earth. This book is filled with many prophecies from the Book of Enoch, Sibylline Oracles, Apocrypha, Pseudepigrapha, and even Catholic and Protestant prophecies. It was written to warn God's people to prepare in advance, so that they can better survive those terrible days that include the Great Tribulation and the Wrath of God at the end.

Embracing two thousand years of intense and fiery admonition, "Approaching the Apocalypse" offers students of religion, history and politics the definitive handbook to Doomsday. Ideas about divinely-inspired disaster have an enduring place in the history of Christian thought. For centuries men and women have made preparations for the imminent end of the world, and for the thousand year reign of Christ and his saints. Inspired principally by the startling texts of the "Book of Revelation", Christianity has a rich and varied tradition of looking forward to the purifying fires of Armageddon. But what do recurring motifs like the Rapture, pestilence, biblical prophecy and the building of the New Jerusalem really add up to? And how have interpretations of these patterns differed from century to century?Charting a steady course between the feverish predictions of early Christian heretics like the Montanists, and the febrile outpourings of modern-day millennialists, such as the Branch Davidians and Christian Zionists in America, John M Court explores the continuities and differences between their violent visions of cataclysm. His history comprises an incisive analysis of such movements and figures as the Levellers and Diggers, James Jezreel and his Trumpeters, Seventh-Day Adventists and Jehovah's Witnesses, cargo-cults and drug cultures. "Approaching the Apocalypse" shows why prophecies of plague, earthquake and flame continue to resonate so powerfully in the Christian imagination, and beyond.
This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2013. A Critical Approach to the Apocalypse offers the reader an in-depth view of the portrayal of apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic scenarios in literature, film and television, art, digital art, history, anthropology, religion and climate change studies.
Hope and the Approaching Apocalypse is a book that certainly gets one's attention. William Clark does much more than presenting an apocalyptic belief based on prophecy and science. He weaves the state of the world and society with the facts of prophecy and science to demonstrate a true connection with the upcoming apocalypse. Over seven years ago, I met Bill Clark where he was the pastor of a local church in Indiana. I was part of the music program, and even though Bill was the pastor, he also helped with the music. He is a Biblical preacher, which is indicative in the book. Bill and I became friends, and we also talked about many situations over lunch and coffee. We are advised not to read the end of a book first. It's like watching only the end of a movie. After reading each intriguing chapter, Bill emphatically gives a power punch at the end of the book. The churched and the unchurched will appreciate the message that we should all be prepared. In every chapter you can feel the concern that the author has for the state of the world and for our personal well-being. If you like to read or listen to the news, you won't want to put down the urgent messages in "The Approaching Apocalypse".
