Critical Review by:
Peter Bryant, Senior Principal Electrical Engineer
"I got your book in the mail on Saturday and I finished it up at
lunch today (Tuesday). This is a very good and well-written book. I
have never seriously considered the preterist view viable until now. I
have pretty much been an amillenialist, with many caveats. I still have
some issues, but you make a very good case, and I’m leaning heavily
toward your general interpretive method.
I have struggled with a futurist mentality AND an understanding
of modern science’s findings for some time. I had begun to move
toward some of the points you bring out fairly clearly in your book. For
example, I agree that militant atheism and militant fundamentalism are two peas
in a pod. Their dependency on each other, as well as their similarities
of intellectual methods, became obvious to me as I studied them. They
will self-destruct (or mutually annihilate each other). I had also come
to the conclusion that American Christianity’s denial of science would
destroy its witness. I loved your section on the multiple witness
argument! Great stuff. May I use it in Sunday School?
...Once again, thanks for the
good read and the very interesting way of looking at this problem. I came
away with much more than I took in. Well worth the price of admission!"
