INTRODUCTION

Im tired of being scared, and I know you are too. Not that there isnt a lot to be scared of in this world today, between the nonstop headlines about wars and nuclear power plants and terrorists and assassinations and civil unrest and economic uncertainty and political doublespeak and insane weather and an environment thats becoming unhealthier by the day. But a point comes when its too much to deal with, and thinking about it accomplishes nothing more than sending you to bed with a cold cloth on your head.

Then, just when youre already on enough overload, someone feels compelled to mention that according to the Mayan calendar, the world is going to end in 2012 anyway, so what difference does anything make, really? Or they heard, or read somewhere, that the book of Revelation, or the book of Daniel, or Nostradamus, or something, or someone says well all be dead in the next two years, or five, or ten, or whatever, or that there are obvious signs that the end of the world is right around the corner. And of course it reminded them of some horrible movie they saw in which only a handful of people are left alive on Earth because of a giant asteroid, and these zombielike survivors are wandering around deserted cities trying to kill each other over a crust of bread.

Its almost enough to make you skip lying down on your bed and to opt for hiding underneath it instead. Almost. But before you do that, I cant encourage you enough to ask a few questions about these dire end-of-the-world predictions. Who were the Mayans, for example, and how did they arrive at a calendar that ends in 2012? What specifically do the books of Revelation and Daniel say that prove this impending doom, and what do we know about the circumstances in which they were written in the first place? Who was Nostradamus, why is he credited with any more expertise about the end of the world than the rest of us, and is it true that his writing is so filled with symbolism that its impossible to tell what he was talking about anyway? What are these obvious signs that our time on Earth is almost upand just out of curiosity, have those same obvious signs ever cropped up before in the history of this planet and maybe been misinterpreted? As for this movie, did it claim to be a documentary? Is there really a legitimate reason to believe that an asteroid gigantic enough to destroy our world is headed toward us, or might be headed toward us any time soon?

Ninety-nine times out of a hundred, the answer to any or all of these questions will be, I have no idea.

If youve seen my television or personal appearances and/or read my books, you know how strongly I believe that knowledge is power and that the first thing to do when youre afraid of something is to educate yourself about it as thoroughly as possible. I would never say, Dont be frightened about the end of the world, because, as youll learn throughout this book, we humans are almost genetically predisposed to thinking about it and worrying about it. But I will say, very enthusiastically, learn all you can, form your own opinions, and maybe above all, find out if theres a choice to be made between ending this planet or saving it.

This book, then, is devoted to replacing fear with fact, to proving that knowledge is power, and to offering the sincere reassurance that, even if the world should end tomorrow (and it wont), God will still keep us safe for all eternity, just as He promised when He created us.

CHAPTER ONE

Please dont leap to the conclusion that theres something urgently meaningful about the timing of this book. I promise you have time to read it more than once before the end of life on Earth.

Actually, there are several reasons this book was at the top of my priority list. Many of them Ill discuss as the book progresses, in the context of the chapters themselves. But one of the most important reasons is also one of the most obvious: Ive never been asked more often than I have been in the past couple of years about when the end of days is coming. What about the Second Coming of Christ? When should we start looking for Him? Or is He here now? Is the Antichrist here already, and if not, when will he show up and who will he be? How literally should we take the biblical book of Revelation? Is the Rapture really going to happen? Nostradamus made it sound as if the Antichrist is among us right now, and the Mayan calendar specifically says the world will end in 2012, which is right around the corner. Is that true? If not, when
