What does the Bible really say about the end times? There are so many Christians teaching outrageous speculation about end times Bible prophecy these days. It's enough to frustrate the serious Bible student. What if you found out most of it is simply mistaken? What if you found out that the ancient Jewish writers were using Old Testament imagery of the past, not a crystal ball gaze into our modern future?

Story
Do you watch movies with your eyes open? You buy your tickets and concessions, and you walk into the theater. Celluloid images flash at 24 frames per second, and the hypnotic sequence of moving pictures coaxes you to suspend disbelief and be entertained by the implausible. Unfortunately, many often suspend their beliefs as well, succumbing to subtle lessons in how to behave, think, and even perceive reality.

Though every topic addressed in Reversing Hermon can be found in scholarly academic literature, Reversing Hermon is the first book to gather this information and make it accessible to Bible students everywhere. The book also includes lengthy appendices on the ancient debate on the inspiration of the book of 1 Enoch, New Testament allusions to the book, and academic resources.

Are demons real? Are they red creatures with goatees holding pitchforks and sitting on people's shoulders while whispering bad things? Did a third of the angels really rebel with Satan? Are demons and "principalities and powers" just terms for the same entities, or are they different members of the kingdom of darkness? Is the world a chaotic mess because of what happened in Eden, or is there more to the story of evil? In Demons, Michael Heiser debunks popular presuppositions about the very real powers of darkness.

What does God want? Sounds like a simple question, but if you give it a bit of thought, it’s really not. For starters, you have to know who’s asking the question. People will ask it for a lot of different reasons. Best-selling author Dr. Michael S. Heiser shows listeners that the answer is pretty simple. That might surprise you. There’s actually a long, remarkable story behind the answer - one that isn’t well known by most people interested in the question.

This is the second “explainer” book by the author that I’ve read
I am deeply deeply interested in the subject matter that the author covers. I just completed reading this book which goes into the history of the spiritual backdrop of ancient China. I was completely blown away by the links to the old testament Genesis chapter 11 Tower of Babel.
I’ve read his first book about Noah. I read it on Kindle and ended up with 400+ highlights. I then like to export the highlights into my Readwise app and do spaced repetition review of them. Like I said, I am deeply interested in the subject matter and there’s no better way to learn it, in my opinion, then in fantastic historical fiction like this series of books.
It’s my goal to read every one of the books in each of the three series. And the fact that he puts out these “explainer“ books to add depth and context, I think it’s just brilliant. Well done!
I am also a fan of Dr. Michael Heiser, who wrote the forward in this book. His “Unseen Realm“ book is a must read and is also good preparation to fully grasp what Godawa is building upon.
Like I said, I’m hooked, and will be completing the whole series within the next year or two.
