The present generation of humanity is the last one before Christ's return-that's the opinion of Dr. Tim LaHaye after years of comparing current events with prophetic Scriptures.

Christians should be vitally interested in predic- tions of Bible prophets, including Jesus himself. They reveal Christ's instantaneous transport of his people to heaven and his later righteous king- dom on earth. Between these epochal events will come the most terrifying years of all history-the Great Tribulation.

Bible prophecy is an urgent message for man- kind: "Be...ready; for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of Man cometh."
