Review:
This book was first published in 1974 to present the visions of the author from dreams he had in 1973. The current book was updated in 2003 to show events that had occurred and still more that look like they will occur. It is interesting reading to see our current day events predicted 40 years in the past.

The book reads very quickly and, for a Christ follower, it is fascinating although not too surprising. I would think it might be more startling for a nonbeliever to see how much of Mr. Wilkerson’s 1973 vision has occurred.

My book club ladies enjoyed the read and felt it was timely, fitting the current day news. I thought the update could have been more up to date but I acknowledge that the update is already 14 years old. I recommend this to readers who enjoy prophesy and noting its fulfillment.

This was my Ladies Book Club read for November. It qualifies for TBR as I had this for several years as we had picked it up for a class study a few years back but never set up the class.

  3. Great review. This sounds very interesting since I enjoy reading books that deal with prophesy. I never read the first one but had thought about getting it but never did. I'll have to get this one so I can see what I think of it. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and feelings about this story with us.
