Seconds Away From Capture

The Young Trib Force just can't catch a break! Just as one problem seems to be resolved, another arises. Judd, Vicki, Lionel, Conrad, Darrion and the others are fighting for their lives as Judgement after Judgement befalls the inhabitants of the Earth. Hail, fire, a massive meteor that turns water to blood and destroys a third of all ships and sea life, and Wormwood which poisons a third of the earth's water. And all this while being on the constant run from the Global Community! It would be a miracle for me to manage that much, but just surviving isn't enough for these brave teenagers. They're constantly risking their safety and even their lives to share the gospel with as many unbelievers as they can. In the midst of all this, the kids discover something interesting: a mark appears on the forehead of every true believer. Now, if only Judd and Vicki could get along...

Kids Left Behind

The series is wonderful. It captures the child's imagination and reflects Scripture at the same time. It is a take off on the book of Revelation believed to be written by the apostle, John. For the uninformed "Christian" and the unbeliever, they will resent that belief is required and good deeds alone are not enough to go to heaven. A Christian who is a believer isn't likely to commit repeated "evil deeds" because of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit so the idea of a Christian serially committing "evil deeds" doesn't fit with being a Christian. If the Bible is offensive to you and specifically: John 3:15-18 [15] That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. [16] For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. [17] For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. [18] He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. then perhaps this is not the book for you or your children. When the "Restrainer" leaves, the Holy Spirit, then it will be a holiday for evil for the Holy Spirit is what restrians some of the evil in this world before the rapture. Again, an unbeliever will mock this and may not wish to be frustrated with this book because of not agreeing with the theology behind the drama as stated in the Bible.

Series for adults now rewritten for teens

I have always enjoyed the adult series of Left Behind books. The kids books are just as good. The kids interact with the characters from the adult series, experience the same events, etc. However, since the main characters are teens, these books can appeal to younger readers. So far, the stories haven't had the ups and downs that the adult series has had. The adult series has books that are a lot more boring than others. The kids series seems to be good in every book. These are not for really young kids, but would be appropriate for young teens. I enjoy them and I am an adult.
