Description
It is the darkest days in the history of the planet. Decadence and disasters threaten to destroy the world. But a handful of faithful believers become the leaders of a mighty worldwide revolution of faith and love that shocks the world. This novel, based on actual prophecies from the Bible, will do more than entertain, more than shock, and even more than inspire. It will give you practical information to prepare you for what lies ahead in world affairs. Be prepared to be deeply disturbed by what it says. This book is NOT a part of the “Left Behind” series by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins. It is, however, an attempt to address certain issues which we feel were left out, contradicted, or mis-interpreted in that series. We have used a few similarities between some of the main characters in that book and some of the main characters in our own, in order to give the public a feel for how events might have unfolded if the Left Behind series had been true to events predicted in Bible prophecy, and if the characters purporting to be Christians had behaved in a more Christian manner. Please read this book prayerfully and seriously, as it concerns important fundamentals in Christian belief, and important principles in the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Summary
The book starts in the USA which is suddenly devastated by a nuclear strike launched from Russia. One of the main character families is described, they are the Straits. Rayford Strait is an airline pilot with the fictional Pan-Continental airways. At the beginning of the book he is flying a transatlantic flight to the UK and is away from his home when the strike hits. His wife Irene, Daughter Chloe and son Raymie are all at home in Illinois when the strike hits. After the strike, Irene is convinced to leave the family home by the local pastor but Chloe does not believe the words of the pastor and stays at the family home. Meanwhile in England, Rayford meets up with a group called Jesans, who tell him that the happenings in America have been predicted in the Bible. Rayford is convinced the Jesans have the answer to future happenings and tries to resign from his job to join them, but is not allowed to resign, and henceforth spends his days off travelling with the Jesans and distributing literature. Meanwhile, the United Nations under the auspices of chairman Xu Dangchao have sprung up as the next world power in the absence of the USA and begin a series of programs of aid that put them in a favourable position with the whole world. The UN broker a Middle East peace deal and plan to build a temple in Jerusalem which will encompass the three faiths of Judaism, Islam and Christianity. Rayford, along with another man, Chaim Rosenberg, have begun recruiting members to the Jesans. These members include a former nun and an atheist. Many of these potential members are not convinced of all that the men are saying at first but an unintentional display of supernatural powers by Rayford Strait convinces them that he speaks the truth. The UN develops a plan that all citizens of the world must be implanted under the skin with a microchip called 'the mark' which, it is explained, will do away with the need for identity documents, and will make life all but impossible for those who don't have it. The Jesans view the mark as the symbol of evil, after Rayford adds up the characters in Dangchao's name and finds they add up to 666, a figure given in the Bible as a link to the Mark of the beast. The temple in Jerusalem is completed and Chairman Dangchao reveals his true identity. He is the Antichrist. After three years of cat and mouse between Dangchao and the two heroes, Rayford and Chaim travel to Jerusalem and confront him. The book describes the confrontation and subsequent events.

Excerpt
It was just dawning on the trio who sat huddled around the radio, that this was not a drill, when they heard and saw the first explosion.
