Christians, read this book and prepare!
Christians who have spent prayer time repenting for themselves and this nation should read this book to prepare and gain a better perspective from Michael Fortner, a gifted writer and Prophet.Christians who have fallen away from God and participate in the prohibited worldly activities should read this book to repair and also prepare. America will be judged and only a small portion of on-fire God-believing people will have supernatural protection.Mr. Fortner’s book is a must read for anyone serious about learning of and surviving the judgements America has earned from a just God. The 2017 eclipse over the US meant judgement and the one coming back thru in 2024 will complete this judgement and perhaps brings civil war.

End Times?
This was an interesting read. I should issue a disclosure about how I came to read this as I'm not a born-again Christian or religious in any sense, rather the opposite, in fact. Two paths, actually, led to reading this. I used to teach literature to high school and college students and at some point realized how much of our literature and culture, really, have biblical origins and so started reading books on the bible as literature, really from a secular viewpoint. The other path was that about five years or so ago I realized that I didn't know much about Islam, the religion, its culture, history and so on and should probably bone up on it, given the current state of affairs in the world. Some would say that it doesn't matter how you arrive at a conclusion shared by people with quite a different perspective just so long as you get there. I disagree.In any case, over the years, and more recently regarding Islam, I've read quite a bit on these topics. The New Testament is straightforward, in my humble opinion, and relatively easily comprehensible. The Old Testament, on the other hand, varies from difficult to opaque, depending on the text. Don't misunderstand me, I have no pretensions to being a bible scholar, but I do have a curiosity about it. Either it means something or it means nothing and, frankly, I don't know which it is. I must confess that it seems only from these end time prophecy perspectives that the Old Testament and Revelations seems to make any sense. Isn't that odd?Now, I must say also, that I've read, particularly on Islam and its current manifestations, from different points of view; pro, con and somewhere in between. I've read Rheza Aslan's "Zealot" and "No God but God"(both quite good), Armstrong, Esposito, Shoebat and many others. Some suggest that Islam is the devil incarnate, some that it will moderate over time, and some that it is a blessing on mankind. I must say also, that my inclination, as a secular humanist, is to accept Islam as just any other religion, both good and bad in different measures. But I also question whether that is correct in light of history and Islam's current manifestations(ISIS, Boko Haram, Al Quaeda, et al).All of which brings us back to the book under discussion. Is it plausible that radical Islam will form an alliance with Russia and China and attack the United States. Well, I hope not but I think, yes, it is. Is it likely that Islam will restore the Universal Caliphate that was the Ottoman Empire. Well, that is one of ISIS's stated objectives, is it not? Turkey is no longer a secular state but has become an Islamic republic, hasn't it? New York in particular and the US in general are the center of international capitalism, are they not, the painted harlot in this narrative? The commodification of everything, including people, is undeniably a feature of triumphant free market capitalism, isn't it? American decline? Undeniable! Massive earthquakes, nuclear war, etc. Plausible? Well, again, I hope not but I'm afraid so. I was reading the other day that the Greenland ice cap is melting so fast that it's triggering numerous earthquakes in the 4 to 5 Richter range. Not so far off the east coast of the US, is it? Russia and China have become geopolitical rivals to the US lately, haven't they? And everybody is developing advanced nukes or trying to get their hands on them, aren't they? Islam as the Antichrist? Well, something's going on, isn't it? Coincidence? Maybe. Or maybe something else.Four stars instead of five because the book is somewhat repetitive. I mean, how many times do you have to say prophecy describes America as Babylon the Great before people get the point? Also four stars because I remain somewhat skeptical. That's my nature. Time will tell, won't it?

Humbling and Piercing
I have many times suspected the United States to be the Babylon depicted in Revelation due to the merchants weeping over her and the statements of her wealth. No other nation is like America in its power and influence "making the world drunk on her wine". This is a must read even if you do not agree with the conclusions. Read this book and at least make a decision for yourself after hearing the argument. Hollywood, the pornography industry, and always receding moral standards of American Society are scarily comparative to Babylon. America is afraid/ashamed/unwilling to acknowledge God as the nations firmest foundation in the public arena much like Israel in times when she abandoned God.

Fantastic read
I loved reading this book. It was very hard to put down. Most of his theories coincide with events prophesied by others. I highly recommend getting this book and the price can’t be beat.

Great book for thinkers!
I really enjoyed this book. I enjoy the topic of the end times and learned some new facts about details I had previously pushed to the back of my mind. All speculation is subject to up or down opinion, mine is up. Well worth the Kindle price.
