The Final Act
The Final Act was published in 2007 and was written by Chuck Smith. This book was well written and provides the reader with an insight into the last days of man-kind. Using scripture and current events, Chuck Smith shares with his readers why he believes the stage has been set for the last days, unveils information about the rapture, talks about the great tribulation, and discusses the second coming. Irregardless of the pre, mid, or post position you may hold regarding the great tribulation, this book is one worth reading. All positions that Chuck Smith holds are supported by scripture. I am impressed with Chuck's ability to see God's hand within the scripture, within the current events surrounding us daily, and then share this insight in an understandable and meaningful way.
The Final Act was well written and the scriptural postions appeared to be within context. The Final Act was an easy read (not light reading just easy for layman to read) and did not require years of biblical study to grasp what the author was communicating.
MY TWO CENTS WORTH
I enjoyed the book but also was freaked out about it. I struggle with two things: 1) I want Jesus to come and come quickly. I want to be in heaven, be in the presence of God, and sing praises (eventhough I can't sing) day-in and day-out. However, I also want to live a long life and watch my children growup and experience the joy of grandchildren. It is what it is. God's timing is God's timing. The stage has been set and the play has to run its course. Irregardless of what act were are in within this drama, I need to live daily as I am instructed. May all I do bring me one day closer to the master's feet.
