The Only Road Map to Peace - The Bible

I throughly enjoyed Mr. Evans' timely book because the events described in the book are so fresh in my mind. Evans has had access to the most important persons involved with the issues of the Middle East over the past 30 years. As such, he is uniquely qualified to write this book. He writes his book from a pro-Israeli viewpoint that the land covenents between God and Abraham about 4,000 years ago trump any Arab claims to the land that have occurred since then. Evans does an especially good job describing the extremist form of Islam called Wahabi. I learned that the extremist Muslims really do obey the Koran. The garden variety Muslim in the U.S. and Europe are much like nominal Christians: They believe their faith to a point but not with a passion. We need to remember that Wahabis and the extreme form of Islam constitute only about 10 percent of Muslims worldwide but that is still over 100 million people. They want to see Israel driven into the Mediterrean and the U.S. driven to financial ruin. They are taking their fantastic oil reserves as Allah's blessing to accomplish these goals. Evans traces both history and politics and ties them into biblical references that have predicted these events. Especially of concern is Evans' warning that the upcoming 2004 Presidential election may be largely determined, not by American voters, but by Muslim powers who will manipulate the timing of terrorism to put the person of THEIR choice in the White House beginning in 2005. Hal Lindsey's recent books on prophecy and current events have probably been more crisper reads for me in understanding the Middle East. Mr. Evans is a close second. Evans' book does show some evidence that the text was hastily written and even more shoddily edited:On page 29, Evans incorrectly states that the Euphrates River runs through Baghdad. On page 45, the same sentence is repeated in the same paragraph. On page 59, the text implies that Hussein, the grandson of Muhammad who died about 632 A.D., was killed by rivals in 1680. Old guy !! Annoying little glitches that hopefully can be corrected before the book is reprinted. I have only one theological nitpick with Evans. On page 24, he calls King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon as "wicked." He may have been that way at the time of the Book of Daniel Chapter 2. I think it is very interesting that Nebuchadnezzar eventually did recognize and submit to the God of Israel. (Daniel Chapter 4.) I think his repentence and conversion could have been mentioned. If Saddam Hussein were truly like Nebuchadnezzar, should we expect Saddam to repent and recognize the God of Israel? These nitpicks do not detract from Evans' main thesis: The U.S. invasion of Iraq had significant implications for God's plan in the unfolding of the end times. Jesus Christ is soon returning to the earth and the main stage geographically will be the final fight between Jerusalem and Babylon. (Isaac and Ishmael.) I would encourage all unbelievers

A Perspective Worth Considering

Although I've only been able to read the parts of this book that are available online, I must say that I was engrossed immediately into the subject by both the passion of the author as well as the effortless reading into a topic that could have easily been written from a partisan perspective. The easy-to-comprehend style of writing takes nothing away from a lifetime of experience that this author obviously brings to the table both in his book, as well as from his relationships with key governmental officials. His appearances on leading national network broadcasts both in the past as well as recently are a testimonial to the author's expertise on this very controversial subject. Whether you agree with his conclusions or not, this book will serve as wake-up call to all who feel that this current Middle-East situation can be easily handled by making the correct 'political' decision.

A Must Read for this day and time

I read the first chapter of this book on-line and couldn't wait to buy it. Now more than ever we in America are becoming a globally focused nation , whether people like it or not. It is important not to remain ignorant as to the times that we are living in. People must take the time to seek for themselves what is happening in the world and no longer be content to form their opinions based on heresay. Take the time to understand why there is so much conflict over the Middle East in this day and age, history is unraveling before your eyes, and you have been chosen to live during such a time as this.

Spectacular

If you really want to see the war behind the war I highly recommend this book. It is a wake up call for all to stand up and be counted. The time is here and now not in the future.
