Publisher's Synopsis
Es-cha-tol-o-gy: a branch of theology concerned with the final events in the history of the world or of humankind. Somewhere around Sedona, Arizona, on December 21, 2012, at 11:00 a.m. (Mayan time), a man--acting on a personal revelation he claims to have received--will jump off a cliff through a portal opening, and will save our planet from certain destruction. The Mayan calendar has certainly piqued our interest in eschatology. From movies and TV documentaries, to innovative real estate schemes and survivalist scams, concerns about 2012 have renewed our awareness about the possibilities of apocalyptic events. So, what does the future hold for planet earth? Are we on a catastrophic collision course with a killer asteroid? Is a rare alignment of the planets going to foster a fatal flaw in earth's fundamental functions? Will our solar system's sun suddenly super-nova? Can there be any alternative to an atomic Armageddon if Ahmadinejad accesses the A-bomb? Would an expeditious encounter with a highly evolved ET end in terror or triumph for us terrestrials? Sincere apologies to the Mayans, but there is another ancient timetable that has predicts end-time events with much greater accuracy and clarity. This, and a number of other apocalyptic prophecies, are the focus of discussion in Eschatology Made Easy. If you believe that the Bible provides definitive answers to questions about eschatology--and especially if you don't--this book is for you.
