Review Summary: The best book I've read after the Bible |

Details: This is honestly the best book I've read after the Bible. Rick Joyner's prophetic revelation sheds light on, but never contradicts or adds to, the Scriptures. It's an important warning and encouragement to all of us to live in the light of heaven, and to be aware of the very real spiritual dynamics going on in the last days.
I read this book twice and will likely read it again. It's one of the few books I feel worthwhile to own personally, and I will be lending it to others as well. |

Review Summary: Read this and take what the spirit gives, whether conviction or blessing |

Details: This book has had profound impact on several men of God who have sought God's lead and wisdom in prayer and who have found direction and conviction in that prayer, not answers in a book written by man. If you are tapped in, your spirit will discern what is for you and what is not. If you are not, you will probably post something lengthy trying to discredit that which you either don't understand or that which convicts. What would Satan be doing if he didn't have so many christians willing to cause division. Awesome book and great discussion starter. It's not doctrine, use your heart and pray about it, take the player out of the equation and see if the message has any relevance. |

Review Summary: Powerful message for powerful times! |

Details: This is one of three books (The Final Quest Series) which contain propheties about the times we live in and times to come. Personally, I found these books amazing. I also realize that there are many negative comments about this prophecy and prophecies in general. There is only one thing that really needs to be kept in mind, the Word of God.
John 16:12-14 (New International Version)
12"I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. 13But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. 14He will bring glory to me by taking from what is mine and making it known to you.
The books are easy to read like a science fiction novel. They moved me to tears many times and revealed many truths. Of cause they are not to be treated like scripture, but Rick Joyner says that himself at the beginning of each book. |

Review Summary: Chew up the meat, spit out the bone |

Details: Ok, well this review will be much shorter (and not quite as critical) as the very first review was (Dante did it better). With anyone that states God has shown them things, we must be prepared to A) take it with a grain of salt, and B) apply it directly to the Word to see how it lines up.
Going into this story you should expect it to be about Joyner's experiences, as if he is retelling a dream. To compare this work to Dante (whose faith has been called into extreme question, and who chose to write The Divine Comedy, not as an expression of a vision he had from God, but as a literary work and critical analysis of Catholicism), or to the Bible (Joyner never eluded to this comparison needing to be made) is a bit far fetched.
To be quite honest, when I have a dream, the plot generally surrounds me and my experiences; this story does the same. If you expect this work to change your life or be something of supernatural and spiritual proportions, you will be disappointed and upset as some other reviewers have been.
I enjoyed the book. More than anything, the theme of repentance (not apology) was what stood out to me, and I don't think that's spoken of enough in the Church. I have been to the church Rick Joyner founded in NC, and really enjoyed it. Bottom line though, he's a regular guy that's part of the Body, just like the rest of us. As far as this book is concerned (and like one of my professors always said), chew up the meat, and spit out the bone. |
