Doomsday Deja Vu (e-Book)

About the Title: “Benito Mussolini is the Antichrist!” “Adolf Hitler is the Antichrist!” “Joseph Stalin is the Antichrist!” “The rapture will be in 1988.” “The rapture will take place before the year 2000.” “Jesus is coming back in our generation.” “Jesus is coming back soon.” “Jesus really is coming back  . . . Soon!” That last one is the title of a new book.

I’m sure you have heard these claims before. They accomplish only one thing: They get people to question the integrity of the Bible. I’ve been following the history of date setting for 30 years. Others have followed it before me. Prophecy pot boilers sell in the millions and are then relegated to the dust bin of history or revised when the newspaper headlines change. It’s hard to appeal to the Bible when so many people have done it before, claiming that this time they’re right on the timing of prophetic events.

Doomsday Déjà Vu shows that there is nothing new in pronouncing the end is near, but there’s a lot about these pronouncements that most people are not aware of.

Did you know that a famous prophecy book that was published during the first Gulf War in 1990 was revised from an edition that was first published in 1974? When the war ended abruptly, the out-dated book was being sold for pennies on the dollar. This didn’t stop the publisher from republishing a newly revised edition in 2007, five years after the original author died! Millions of people read the Left Behind series thinking it was a new way to teach about prophecy. It had been done before, in a series of books that began publication in 1916.

Then there’s the problem of prophetic inevitability, prophecy writers who insist that we must go to war because that’s what the Bible predicts.

This beautifully typeset book includes many color images that help tell the story of America’s fascination with the end times. You’ll never read a prophecy book in the same way after reading Doomsday Déjà Vu.
