Finally! I realistic approach to Revelation!

Hays and Pate have brought Revelation back to reality. They have taken a practical theological approach tom interpreting Revelation in light of historical and present day events. When others are looking to attach Babylon to whatever present day threat or power that comes along, Hays and Pate helps us to read the book in the light in which it belongs: the first century Biblical worldview.

pate and hays tell it like it is

Having taken classes from these two professors, it's not surprising that they would write such a great book. Their humor and dislike for unbiblical prophecy writers (not theologians) like Lindsey and LaHaye are very rare and comforting. It is not very often that someone would take on a big author like LaHaye, but they point out the outlandish, ridiculous, and almost heretical views of LaHaye and Lindsey. Very good to read such an awesome book from professors I grew to love and respect over 4 years.

Excellent!!!

FINALLY! A true and honest look at what the bible says concerning the end times! The authors do a wonderful job of dismissing myths about the need for Babylon to be rebuilt. My favorite chapter was chapter 5 in which they gave valid proof to disbelieve that Russia will ever attack Israel. Excellent. I would recommend this to everyone.
