T. J. McMahon of the Bible Prophecy Blog's A Matter of Critical Discernment sets up a good counter opinion for this book which should be a good beginning as we review The Harbinger. Remember this is not a review...merely my reading and providing info as I see it...and maybe even start a discussion... I believe McMahon has done an excellent presentation on this book and hopefully you'll read his opposing thoughts...
Here's the first para to help you decide whether you want to read:
By the way for whatever reason my Book Reader's Heaven Blog publishing activity has been changed. This Blog has not been! Followed by a lot of ????? LOL! I expect, however, that this discussion will indeed need to be under my "Just My Personal Opinion Blog, which is also my adult blog... I had hoped to work on The Harbinger from BRH...but...
Anyway...
Let's take a look at the cover first...
Subtitle: The Ancient Mystery that Holds the Secret of America's Future!
Wow, that's a knock-out statement in my opinion...and you all know that I have an interest in all this, right?
My first prophetic book was the Late Great Planet Earth.
This was the first, real, time when I started getting interested in matching people's opinion about God, The Second Coming, etc... This book, BTW, was published as nonfiction...
But, you know, I was never fanatical about any actions or words created by writers... I do believe that if "this" ever happens, that nobody will know it is happening until
It does...
But just for info, if you want to find out what Hal Lindsay was saying, here's a vid of info...
Here's the first para to help you decide whether you want to read:
The Harbinger is a novel that is becoming very popular among both Christians and non-Christians, even reaching the top of the New York Times best-seller list at this writing. What makes it worthy of review, like other books that we have addressed is that it offers an important opportunity for believers to exercise critical discernment. In this case, author Jonathan Cahn believes that he has discovered prophetic signs from God that are found in the Old Testament and directly apply to the United States, referring in particular to the events surrounding the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Because The Harbinger is a fictional novel with a large dose of nonfiction added (Scripture), this critique involves two aspects: 1) a personal, subjective opinion, and 2) a more objective consideration of the author’s application of Scripture in his novel.I do not profess to have the gift of discernment. I do believe that I have a gift for reading and understanding fiction. There may be a difference between McMahon and someone like myself just because that. I will be reading it as fiction, but I will also be looking at it as an individual who has a passion for understanding God's actions...and those who write it as fiction.
