Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many, the idea of the Last Days brings to mind concerns and fears about the End of the World, The Antichrist, The Mark of the Beast, World War, and Armageddon. For centuries, man has been occupied with the idea that someday the world will come to an end. These fears and concerns have been fuelled by natural disasters, famines, world wars, and the writings of people such as Nostradamus, Jeane Dixon, and Tim LaHaye. When we think about the Last Days, we have more questions than answers. Is the world really going to end? Should we be concerned about the future? Where are we today in relation to the Last Days? Author Richard H. Perry urges readers to 'consider the source' when caught up in these questions that don't seem to have answers. In The Complete Idiot's Guide to the Last Days, Perry takes readers to the source of all discussion on the subject: the Bible itself.
