In this pivotal book by Dr. David Jeremiah concerning what would be considered by most of the world as the top "10 prophetic clues you cannon afford to ignore". This is not just a Christian book, but one that all diversity groups speak about. What In The World IS Going On? and how long has it been happening right under our noses?
Answers to questions such as are we moving into a New World Order, North American Union, Transcontinental Union with the European Union are answered. What countries really make up the army that comes against Israel--and why will Israel still stand? What is the biblical timetables for this battle. There is much talk today that Israel or the US should fire upon Iran soon. On the other hand, Iran says it is going annihilate the US and Israel; wipe both off the face of the earth. Many believe it is now and that brings us to the end of times.
Dr. Jeremiah gives amazing facts and information crossing the lines of:
* Domestic
* International
* Political
* Historical
* Christian
* Islamic

* Trade - not just oil but all commerce changes
* National Security - moving closer to NAU and NWO

Best Current Resource on the End Times November 21, 2008

Books on end times prophecy often overextend themselves with specific interpretations and speculation on exact events of the future. David Jeremiah avoids this extreme with solid scholarship mixed with interesting stories and anecdotes. The book does a good job of explaining Daniel's prophecies, along with salient passages from Revelation, Jeremiah and Zechariah, while quoting such diverse modern sources as Nicolaus Sarkozy, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Dutch Bishop Muskens of Breda for their perspectives on current events. I have read several of David's books and, IMHO, this is his best to date.
The book's subtitle is, "10 Prophetic Clues You Cannot Afford to Ignore." Jeremiah devotes a chapter to each of his "clues" as follows:
1. The Israel Connect
2. The Crude Awakening
3. Modern Europe... Ancient Rome
4. Islamic Terrorism
5. Vanished Without a Trace
6. Does America Have a Role in Prophecy?
7. When One Man Rules the World
8. The New Axis of Evil
9. Arming for Armageddon
10. The Return of the King
Jeremiah writes (and interprets Scripture) from the Dallas Seminary dispensational pre-millennial, pre-tribulation rapture viewpoint. I disagree with his projected order of coming events, but admire his accuracy in handling the history of Israel, the development of the oil industry, Islamic Terrorism, and "The New Axis of Evil." Taken as a whole, this book provides a great, broad view of what is occurring now and will be coming in the not-too-distant future.
"What in the World is Going on?" is easy to read, holds attention, and gives a helpful overview of coming events. I believe every Christian ought to be studying this subject at this time in history because we are either on the brink of revival, or rapidly advancing towards the culmination of this phase of earth's existence. I recommend this book to you.
 What In The World Is Going On? November 20, 2008
This book is based on ten sermons that the author gave in his church on the topic of the end times. I was a slightly apprehensive when it first came, because I wasn't sure I was up for such a heavy read, but I was drawn in immediately with the first chapter on Israel. As a person who doesn't know a lot about the specifics of Biblical prophesy, this book was very educational. I particularly liked how the author was able to show us how history has fulfilled God's prophesies and how things are still in motion to continue to fulfill everything that is predicted in the Bible. The Word of God is relevant for today, and God's sovereign plan is happening! The chapters with the most Biblical references were the most convincing (Israel, Daniel's visions about ancient Rome, Armageddon and the return of Christ), whereas there were a few chapters with less Biblical evidence, including the chapters on oil and terrorism. The explanation and history on Islam was very helpful though. The only aspect of the book that didn't appeal to me was an underlying political commentary, even including a not very subtle slam on Barack Obama. But overall, I enjoyed the book. I can say that I have learned something from reading it, and to me, that is a success.
What's the future for American's November 20, 2008
This book differs slightly from other prophetic books in that it concentrates on America role in the end times. A must read for those who want to know how America will fit in with the rest of the world.
 Same Old Same Old November 20, 2008

This book is wildly popular at my bookstore. I'm not sure why: I haven't figured out if it is good marketing or the current election. Either way, I've had a hard time keeping it on the shelf and it is steadily moving up bestsellers lists. There's good reason.
This book is based on fear: fear of the unknown, fear of loss, fear of tragedy. It is easy to take people's fears and then offer a solution to them. I believe that David Jeremiah is sincere in his effort to comfort people in the face of a future that is uncertain, but I feel that this effort is severely misguided. Jeremiah expounds on ten topics that he feels points to the near rapture and return of Jesus Christ. Among the topics discussed are American-Israeli relations, oil, an Roman Empire-European Union connection, Islamic terrorism, and America's role in prophecy. It is basic 20th century eschatology. The writing is decent, so it won't leave you bogged down.
I have three main problems with this book, and I'll visit them all briefly. I don't have enough space to accurately point them all out.
First of all, it is historically inaccurate. There is a map on page 61 of the boundaries of the old Roman empire. I feel that the boundaries are incorrect. They extend too far north into Europe. While Rome did send military expeditions into these regions, they weren't exactly in control of them, either. The problem with this is that Jeremiah uses this map to compare the Roman empire with the European Union in an attempt to say that the EU is the second coming of the Roman empire. There are numerous other examples such as this.
Secondly, it is statistically inaccurate. On page 80, Jeremiah states: "Experts say that 15 to 20 percent of Muslims are radical enough to strap a bomb on their bodies in order to kill Christians and Jews. If this number is accurate, it means about three hundred million Muslims are willing to die in order to take you and me down." Jeremiah does not quote who these experts are or where they got there figures. I guess 70 percent of all statistics are wrong. To make the statement that "three hundred million Muslims are willing to die in order to take you and me down" without having proper statistics is irresponsible.
Finally, I feel as if there are Biblical errors as well. Jeremiah takes verses and uses them out of context to prove his point. There are no Scripture samples that make use of a whole passage. In this way, it easy to guide readers to conclusions that just aren't there.
I wouldn't recomment this book for anyone because of its gross inaccuracy. I wouldn't recommend this book for those who enjoy prophecy because it is the same Tim Lahaye eschatology revisited.
