Earthquakes, superstorms, wars and rumors of wars ...

WASHINGTON – The Islamic world is aflame with revolt and upheaval.

Earthquakes are increasing in frequency and intensity.

Superstorms are ravaging the planet.

Does any of this have a familiar ring?

It's not a subject the secular media is likely to explore, but millions of people the world over are asking themselves whether the turmoil and disasters plaguing the globe are the signs of the times predicted by Jesus and the prophets of the Bible that would coincide with the end of the age.

The WND Superstore offers many resources for those with such concerns:

"Isralestine" by Bill Salus. Salus offers a different look at prophecy in the Middle East than almost any other writer. This book unveils significant Bible prophecy that has eluded the discernment of today's great scholars. Once upon a foretold time, the Jewish people were to meet with a holocaust type condition, out of which they would return back to their ancient homeland of Israel. They would begin as refugees, but promptly emerge into an exceedingly great army. Per Psalm 83, destiny's design for this great army is a head-to-head confrontation with a formidable Arab confederacy consisting of Palestinians, Lebanese, Syrians, Jordanians, Saudi Arabians and Egyptians. This Arab coalition has been developing in its fledgling stages since 1948 and will climax and officially confederate in the very near future.

"2012, the Bible and the End of the World" by Mark Hitchcock: What should Christians make of the rapidly spreading speculations that the world will end on December 21, 2012? The ancient Mayans were expert astronomers and their advanced calendar cycles predict 12/21/2012 as a catastrophic day of apocalypse. This prophecy has spawned a growing number of fringe-element books and websites. But what's the real story?

"Can America Survive?" by John Hagee: The famed pastor offers 10 signs that we are living in the "terminal generation."

"Are These the Last Days" by Greg Laurie: As we look at the instability in our world, the turmoil and the threat of terrorism, we can't help but ask, "Are we living in the last days"? Greg Laurie will help take some of the guesswork out of understanding the end times and will encourage you to live confidently and expectantly in an uneasy and uncertain world.

"The Israel Omen": "The Israel Omen" is a breakthrough in Bible prophecy identifying for the first time that the "four horns" prophecy, warned of long ago, is unfolding in our day with it a dire warning for mankind. With the unfolding of this prophecy we are now able to recognize the current international group, referred to as the "Quartet," as the one identified by Zechariah 2500 years ago. This group consisting of the United States, European Union, Russia and the United Nations is dedicated to the removal of the biblical "Promised Land" from Israel, in the name of peace. However, as their effort to remove the restored Holy Land has moved forward, the catastrophes warned of by Zechariah have eerily coincided with those efforts, just as the ancient prophecy foretold. Now, in April of 2010 President Obama announced his intention to bring together the "four horns" in another effort to “scatter” the land, just as the prophecy warned against.

"Prophecies for the Era of Muslim Terror: A Torah Perspective on World Events" by Rabbi Menachem Kohen: This is an unusual book – with a far different perspective than the rest. It is a prophecy book written from the perspective of a rabbi. You will be amazed by what you learn.

"It's the End of the World as We Know It and I Feel Fine": Jim Fletcher offers a unique take on the unfolding of Bible prophecy before our eyes.

"Apocalypse Soon" by Patrick Heron: You can know history before it happens in this easy to read account of God’s warning to mankind. Concise and understandable, Heron’s book is perfect for those who don’t know much about end times.Only a few Bible prophecies remain to be fulfilled, and Heron gives a deep study of prophecies of the Bible woven with current events.
