do you read the left behind books if you do what do you think of it!?!

I've read them and while there are a couple things I don't completely agree with, for the most part they were good. Highly entertaining and they made you think

I've read all of them and loved them. Although I did have to remember all the while that it is an interpretation of the author's point of view of the Rapture. I do believe in a lot of what the books covered, just maybe not in the sequence or exact manner in which these things happened. I think they were very well written and I'm a fan of the series. I've seen the movies, and I can tell you that the books are far better. The movies don't do the books justice.

The problem with the books is that they are based upon a misinterpretation of the book of Revelation. They are about an end of times that the book of Revelation was not really about.
The end times in the book of Revelation means the end of the Roman rule over the world. The book is actually referring to a time when people are no longer oppressed by the Roman Emperors.
Take care,

I have read the entire Left Behind series. I thought they were very thought provoking and quite intriguing. The series is not quite as good as Tim LaHayes Babylon Rising series.

I'll be honest, haven't read the books but seen the movies based on the books....it really makes you think....I plan on reading the books though...cause I enjoyed the movies,,it is kinda scary...but it makes you think about what if it happens and I want to be on the right side...

Not exactly prize-winning composition, but fairly good. A great portrait of the typical Evangelical take on the End Times. Not that they shoudl be taken as the gospel truth, of course.

I read the first three. I think they get a little dull after a while... but, then again, I'm thirteen. ;)
