The End Is at Hand or Is It?
A methodical approach to the timing of the rapture

LONGWOOD, FL-Before you run screaming "The sky is falling!" at the first sign of a perceived disaster, read George R. Begault's The Soon and Coming Rapture of the Church? BALONEY!! ($11.99, paperback, 978-1-60266-179-0). The book seeks to dispel, in a methodical and biblical manner, widely held beliefs about the incorrect sequence of major end-time events, from the rapture to the apocalypse. Motivated to see clichéd phrases like "the rapture can happen anytime now" stricken from the records of history, Begault set to work replacing these misconceived notions with sound biblical teachings that prove the end times are years away.

"I hope the biblical verses quoted, the compelling order in which they are shown to be related, and the inevitable conclusions reached will convince readers they must rethink much of what they have been taught in the old 'hand-me-down' teachings of yesterday," says Begault. "Why? Simply for the sake of rethinking (and replacing) that which is incorrect with that which isn't."

The book runs the gamut in apocalyptic lore, including the last ruling world empire, the unmistakable rise of the antichrist, the true timing of the rapture, the Second Coming, and the nuclear war to follow. These events and more are placed in the appropriate time sequence, giving readers a correct frame of reference about the most enigmatic book of the Bible.

George R. Begault worked in a specialized field of electronics directly associated with our country's nuclear program and later contributed to several military weapons programs. The final years of his career were devoted to the design of equipment for the semiconductor industry. He now lives with his wife, Lynn, two cats, and a dog in a quiet Florida suburb
