Left Behind Series. 

Well --- I have ALL 12 books of the 'Left behind' series and they take pride of place on my bookshelf! I've read them all through three times and I love them. I was brought up to believe the 'pre-mill' view and it wasn't until I was 21 and at Bible College that I found out there were other views on eschatology.

I do remember being a kid and coming home to an empty home wondering if I had been 'left behind'.

I love the charts and diagrams and I can get rather excited over it all.

But on the other hand, I'm not so 'one-eyed' as to think that a person who doesn't believe or interpret the meanings of Revelation the same as I do, that they are lost!

Our Old testament lecturer was an 'A-Mill' and we had many colourful discussions with him. He dedicated our fourth child in our Church and we called all our children Old Testament names, through the influence of this Lecturer, and I certainly believe that he will be heaven too - probably in the room next to mine!

There are many interpretations of Revelation. There must be a reason why God has allowed this book to appear so ambiguous in places.

But this quote We'll give the last word to Evonne: "The Left Behind books miss the point that Christ already has the victory!" I don't agree with and wonder if this lady has read all the books, because Christ is certainly lifted up and 'Yes' He already does has the victory, but there are still many days of prophecy to be fulfilled.
