Publisher's Synopsis
History has followed biblical time patterns with such consistency that it enables the forecasting of future events that are both geopolitical and prophetic in nature. This book, first published in 2010, predicted that President Hosni Mubarak would soon be out of power. This happened in 2011 during the year of the Arab Spring. In 2010 he appeared to be quite safe. It predicted a Jesuit would become pope, something that had never happened during the order's 477-year history. It happened in 2013 with the election of Pope Francis. It predicted our missile defense system would reach a turning point around the year 2016 that would send it in a new direction. We are witnessing this play out in 2017 with the North Korean missile crisis. Patterns generate forecasts that suggest future outcomes, but they do not produce knowledge of the future. Only God knows with certainty what will happen next. Nonetheless, the Apocalyptic Clock has generated several stunning predictions that have come true and this book contains many more. As you follow the unfolding of history on these time patterns you will be amazed at how structured history is. It is anything but random. And this presence of design in history is a powerful argument for the existence of God, for who else, or what else, could account for this other than an all-powerful, all-knowing Being? Only God knows the future and God has partially revealed this future to us through His prophecies. As we follow the unfolding of history we will see how it is revealing where we are in the realization of prophecy and what we can expect both now and in the coming decades. Historical processes 6000 years in the making are now approaching their culmination and the disturbing events of today will soon seem tame. But rather than inspire us with fear, The Apocalyptic Clock is a book of great hope. It shows how God is in control of events and that is a powerful argument for trust, belief and faith in the One who is history's architect.
