Skip Wentworth, using primitive instinct and tortuous CIA training, circles the planet in a heart-pounding search for ruthless terrorists plotting to destroy America and Israel on the date the Maya predict the world will end, December 21, 2012. Their plan is to use equipment designed by the US and skimmed from the manufacturer's assembly line. Adding to his torment, his new bride is taken hostage by the mad enemy determined to avenge their God, Allah. The accomplished bloodhound tracks them in a frantic race to beat the countdown to annihilation, saving his wife, the nation and possibly the world from the maniacal conspiracy to initiate Armageddon.

Skip Wentworth, former CIA agent, unexpectedly pressed into action, used agonizing, exhaustive, and comprehensive training to decipher actions in the Middle East and unravel the puzzle of states aligned against Israel. The cunning sleuth, silent and deadly, operated under the noses of the crazed enemy to uncover hidden plots. Palestine's membership in the United Nations as a sovereign state, and the threat to appropriate land once belonging to Israel, guaranteed the advent of World War III. United States President Jana Elaine White when forced to choose a side, either side, would initiate the countdown.

An insurgency of demonic powers grows weary of Satan's failed attempts to overthrow God. With stolen quantum technology, they plot to leave for a universe of their own. There's just one catch... they require humans to make the jump. Ru, the sultry angelic hybrid, is torn between her loyalty to an ancient Wind of light, and her mysterious father who seeks to pull her to the darkness. It's the hitchhiker's guide to the Apocalypse.

Has the final countdown to the end days begun? Are the heavens telling us we are nearing the end? Astronomers have noticed it is coming. Historians have noted its significance. In 2014 and 2015, there will be a phenomenon in the skies of four blood moons falling during Jewish feasts. This has only happened three times in recorded history: 1493-94, 1949-50 and 1967-68. Each time these dates have had extraordinary significance for the Israelites. From the discovery of the New World to the creation of modern-day Israel, these years of the four blood moons have truly been turning points in history. Bible prophecy describes the moon being darkened and turned to blood. What is the significance of these signs in the skies? What will the future bring? Prophecy expert Mark Hitchcock guides you through the relevant Bible passages so you can understand the times in which you live.

". . .There will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars. . .Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near." Luke 21:25a, 28 It is rare that Scripture, science, and history align with each other, yet the last three series of Four Blood Moons have done exactly that. Are these the "signs" that God refers to in His Word? If they are, what do they mean?What is their prophetic significance?

Are the blood moons of 2014-2015 portents of pending calamitous events in the Middle East? Are they true harbingers of doomsday? Is the apocalypse foretold in the books of Daniel and Revelation coming to pass in our lifetime? Just how important is belief in the return of Jesus Christ to the Christian faith? Does Bible Prophecy have any relevance to the way Christians live their lives in the twenty-first century? What did Jesus mean by the coming of the Kingdom of God? Are there authentic heavenly signs of the apocalypse that can tell us when the end of the age is?S. Douglas Woodward, best-selling author of seven books on eschatology, theology, and the religious history of America brings his acute analytical skill and decades of biblical study to the hot topic of the 'blood moon' prophecies. His effort brings a mature, seasoned perspective to this subject and as such, delivers an enduring classic on eschatology destined to be a cherished inspirational resource and vital prophetic reference for many years to come. In Blood Moon: Biblical Signs of the Apocalypse, Woodward examines the Blood Moon Prophecy as articulated by Mark Biltz and John Hagee. He also evaluates the criticisms of Mark Hitchcock and Chris White. Woodward finds a middle ground, identifying why the Blood Moon Prophecy is likely to be authentic, but cautions against accepting its validity without the test of time. Woodward points out many reasons to find cause for belief and many reasons that it legitimately could be questioned.Woodward evaluates the nature of biblical signs by studying the phrase signs and wonders as used in both the Old Testament (Hebrew and Aramaic) and in the New Testament (Greek). He also evaluates the issues of whether biblical signs of the apocalypse must all be supernatural--showing why many may be 'natural' in terms of astronomical events that are unusual but not paranormal acts of God.The heart of the book, however, is an apologetic for why the study and adherence to the Kingdom of God (and the apocalypse it implies) is mandated by the words of Jesus Christ. His followers MUST keep watch--always. He finds surprising corroboration in modern liberal theology and disconcerting denials in evangelicalism. Woodward professes belief in the Pre-Tribulation Rapture of the Church. In Blood Moon, he argues forcefully for this interpretation of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, yet shows respect for alternative views not in agreement with his.Likewise, Woodward affirms faith in what is known as the 'Ruin and Restoration' Theory for God's creation (aka The Gap Theory). Readers will find substantial evidence for this point of view from an analysis of 2 Peter's statement concerning 'scoffers' in the last days and why Peter used this perspective to strengthen the argument for the apocalypse and the coming of Christ to establish His Kingdom here on earth.Blood Moon is a consummate prophecy book--perhaps the most well-written argument for the importance of biblical prophecy to the Christian faith that has been written in the past several decades. After reading this book, those fascinated by eschatology will understand exactly why their preoccupation with prophetic subjects is perfectly in line with the admonitions of the gospel.Of all the books on the blood moon prophecy, Woodward's will be the most memorable and influential over the long term. It is a must read for all students of eschatology. Like his other books, readers will want to return to it again and again, not because it is hard to follow, but because it is jam packed with so much information.
