These books are good, and I'm flying through them, but it gets annoying how they seem to drag on in spots. ( )
  thatnerd | Mar 2, 2024 |
It took a few weeks to find these last 5 books in this series of 13 books circulating in the used bookstores. I guess most people peter out by this time. Conversations continue to be short and choppy and unnatural feeling. I’m still not connected to any of the characters. That’s too bad because I still have four more books to read in this never-ending series.

We are now 42 months into the Tribulation and 25 days into the Great Tribulation.

Revelations 16:1-2: Then I heard a loud voice from the temple saying to the seven angels, "Go and pour out the bowls of the wrath of God on the earth." So the first went and poured out his bowl upon the earth, and a foul and loathesome sore came upon the men who had the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image.

This book was basically all about the reformed Israeli statesman, Dr. Chaim Rosenzweig, who actually killed the Anti-christ, leading the newly reformed Jewish Christians out of Jerusalem and into hiding in Petra after Carpathia desecrates the Holy Temple by sacrificing a pig and committing murder inside the temple.

Here, God tells the first angel to pour out his bowl upon the earth. All those receiving the mark of the beast begin to itch, then painful, infected boils begin breaking out all over their bodies. Carpathia’s army becomes incapacitated.

God provides Chaim with anointed powers to get the job done. Carpathia has no choice but to comply if he wants to see the end of the plague upon his followers. The believers of Christ see and experience great miracles as God provides His protection while the saved Israeli's run and are exported to their designated place of refuge in Petra. Only the one million saved converted Jews from Israeli would have the full protection of God for the rest of the Great Tribulation. Others only have spiritual protection at this point and will most likely have to prove their loyalty to God or to the Antichrist.

The Archangel Michael appears often to encourage the people not to fear upcoming events because the Lord has them. He appeared the very day, standing in front of those million saved Israelis, as Carpathia’s army of 500,000 headed toward them in a cloud of dust that could be seen miles away, then 1/4 mile away, then 500 yards away, and finally 10 yards away, when suddenly the earth opened up and swallowed the entire army, including over 200 of Carpathia's commanding officers. The ground recovered instantly and, as the dust settled, the entire army was completely gone. The GC planes and choppers, who came after the dust had settled, could find no trace of their army from up above. Carpathia then calls top leaders together in New Babylon. Their plan? To flatten Petra filled to the brim with the saved Jews and wage a world-wide war against all Christians and Jews.

The 2nd angel pours out the second bowl upon the earth. All sea water has turned to pure blood. All sea creatures are dead and rotting, as well as thousands of humans stranded on ships out at sea and others living along the coastlines who depend on that sea life, are dying. Inland, rivers and streams are yet to be affected, but will be, and water will soon become more valuable than gold.

The end of this book actually leaves you hanging a little. As Dr. Tsion Ben-Judah, the spokesperson for Christ who has millions of followers across the world, returns to Israeli and enters Petra to give encouraging words to these million Jews gathered so far, Carpathia’s army flew over and dropped two atomic bombs directly over the people….

...onto to Book #10: The Remnant: On the Brink of Armageddon. I'm expecting another big miracle. ( )

"We can all keep our fingers crossed," Mac said. "I've seen those Quasis do amazing things based solely on what the flight management system onboard computer tells it to do. But this is a long flight on its own, and I've asked it to do some interesting stuff, barring turbulence."
