Product Description Book 11 in The Left Behind Series
A New York Times Bestseller
The scattered Tribulation Force is drawn inexorably toward the Middle East, as are all the armies of the world, when history homes in on the battle of the ages. By the time of the war of the great day of God the Almighty, homes have been uprooted, new alliances forged, and the globe has become a powder keg of danger. Who will be left standing when the battle leaves the Tribulation Force on the brink of the end of time and the Glorious Appearing?
The eleventh book of the "Left Behind" series.November 24, 2008 I have read the entire "Left Behind" series, and loved them. The eleventh book Armageddon brought me to tears. I literally wept. It touched my heart in a way that spoke to my spirit. I highly recommend reading the entire collection of the "Left Behind" series.
Wrapping up story linesOctober 1, 2008 Not quite as good as the previous books in the series. Wrapping up lots of fictional story lines, less Biblical prophesy, and the book ends before the climactic battle and Christ's return.
Danger!! Proceed with caution!!September 11, 2008 I respectfully disagree with the author for the following reasons.
Jesus said four times the resurrection is on the last day. Dr. Lahaye and many others believe that the resurrection is not on the last day, but at the beginning of the tribulation with the rapture. Jesus taught the rapture or flight into the kingdom of God is before the tribulation and the resurrection after the tribulation when he comes in glory.
Jesus taught his followers must be accounted worthy to escape the tribulation and those followers who are not will go through the great tribulation. Dr. Lahaye does not believe that some Christians will be raptured and some will go through the tribulation because he believes the rapture includes the resurrection where all believers are changed, not just some.
Jesus taught a person must be a believer before the resurrection to be saved. Dr. Lahaye teaches that after the resurrection that many Jews will be saved.
Jesus taught only the Jews that received him before the resurrection would be saved. Dr. Lahaye believes that all Israel will be saved including many after the resurrection.
Most modern day preaching fails to warn as Jesus taught in his parables regarding his coming. Christ taught his followers that some would be ready and some would not and the consequences in each case. When was the last time you heard a preacher minister from the parables of Christ with respect to his return? When was the last time you heard a message on the coming of Christ? Have you been told what Christ said would happen to followers who are not ready for his coming? I finally became so annoyed at the preaching in the church that I was compelled to write a book to warn the church regarding spiritual negligence and the consequences as taught by Christ. It's called Ready or Not, Here I Come. The book explains what Christ taught with respect to his coming. I was afraid it would shock the church. Then I realized there was no other alternative when I considered what Jesus taught. Luke 12:47-48.Ready or Not, Here I Come

The eleventh book in the best-selling Left Behind series doesn't disappoint. Whit Christ's return eagerly awaited, Tribulation Force member face the greatest trials thus far in the tribulation. In this book, we see major changes in the main characters. It is difficult to say who will survive until the Glorious Appearing. As the Antichrist's armies mass on the plains of Meggido, the tension is as finger-biting level. I enjoyed this book. It is easy to see that the end of the series approaches by how the characters are developed. I was sad to see some of my favorites not make it to the end. I did find at least one character, Leah, left hanging. Her story line has carried through the last few books, but disappeared early on in this one. The overall level of violence compels me to remind parents this is not a book for children or even younger teens. Some scenes are very graphic. Overall, I think "Armegeddon" is an excellent piece of fiction, with Biblical lessons we all can benfit from.
