About this listen

 With Lucifer securely locked away for a thousand years, the Lord Jesus Christ now reigns over a renewed earth. But despite the idyllic surroundings and Christ-friendly environment, a growing number of hedonistic youth join a band of rebels who reject Christ and long for Satan's return.

Groundbreaking Christian authors Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins bring their best-selling saga to its resounding conclusion.

This is the last book in the Left Behind series, and I have listened to all of them with great enjoyment. This is the first one that has not gripped me. It sounds a bit too "preachy" as it foretells the events of the end times in the Millenial Kingdom. It has a slightly self-conscious tone, the only one of the series to sound this way - in that the events of the Bible are clearly laid out with not a "jot or tittle" added or taken away, just using the contrivance of the various characters asking questions of whoever is talking, in order to make scriptures easier to understand. Aside from that they've still managed to make it interesting and not too much like a sermon, because in the millennial Kingdom, after Jesus has come and set up his Thousand-Year reign on Earth, there is still dissension in the ranks! (which I had no idea about) in that glorified Believers i.e. those who have died during the tribulation, are not to marry or have children, but the people who survived the great tribulation can marry and have children, and their children can too. All of the old people (from the tribulation and the resurrected martyred saints) will live to be 1000 years old, but of the new people (born during or after the end times) any unbelievers who turn away from the faith will die at age 100 and go to hell. Which I knew nothing about from the Bible! but it is all there in black and white apparently. Each new child has to make the decision for or against Jesus, and there appears to rise in the ranks a group of people who decide not to believe. So most of the story is involved with trying to convert the Unbelievers.
Noah coming forward to tell his story has the potential to be a real piece of excitement. Disappointingly, Noah simply recites the story straight from the King James version, no extra insight. Similarly with Joshua and Caleb telling of the entry into the promised land - their audience of children had already studied the bible story, and I can't figure out why they acted so thrilled when all Joshua and Caleb did was recite it word for word from the Bible. If nothing else, at least this got me hearing more of the Bible. But some expansion, explanations and insights would have been good. If the other 12 books managed to be an adventurous retelling in fictional form, why depart from that very successful format now? They might as well have just written down the chapter and verse numbers and told me to go look it up.
God seems to be a very vengeful Old Testament God in most of this story, although loving and responsive to his followers.
Altogether the book did help my knowledge and understanding of the events of the end times and Bible characters.

An eye opener but a bit preachy

This book should have been the epilogue of the previous book. God won, good guys live happy for a thousand years. The story they tell in this book is super pointless, like a beginning to a new series that quickly ends like a fart. The utopia with all the biblical figures running around and tellin their Bible stories to kids - I mean us - is silly and pointless since anybody who has listened/read this far should already know these their stories.

The whole series is like half a dozen novels streeeeeetched into over a dozen. Not even the hilariously evil Antichrist can save it. He is in this book for about five seconds.

A very pointless epilogue story
