FOREWORD
WHAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO READ WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE.
How do you write a fresh work on prophecy and keep it pertinent to the rapidly changing times in which we now live? Just as Carl Gallups has done. When The Lion Roars is relevant and as gripping as the title suggests, and is impossible to put down once you open its pages. The theme of each chapter pops right out of todays headlines; then Pastor Gallups masterfully juxtaposes the current events with the predictive Word of God. From the push for globalism by world leaders and the implosion of the Middle East, to the global anxiousness of our day and the staggering technological advancements that even experts say are threatening to spiral out of control, Pastor Gallups weaves it all together with the thread of biblical prophecy that foretold the alignment of nations that would rise up against a miraculously returned Israel in the last days. He takes you on a journey through topics that you will be continually merging into your daily conversations from this day forward. Yes this book is that relevant.
The reading of When The Lion Roars does not require that you hold to a specific end-times view concerning the rapture. But it will bring to life the stark realization that we are, indeed, living in the most profound days of biblical fulfillment since the first coming of Yeshua Ha-Mashiach.
One thing that always impresses me about Carl Gallups a seasoned and bestselling author, senior pastor, radio host, and former law enforcement officer is the amount of sheer investigative work, documentation, and biblical word-study he exhibits. It is enough to keep you glued to the daily news and the prophetic Word of God from this day forth. Yet, it is all laid out, simply and beautifully and is actually enjoyable to read!
You will soon discover just how significant this work really is as it causes you to reconsider how you relate to the world including how you worship. I am convinced that the meaning of the few years of earthly existence we are given by Yahweh will take on a new freshness and significance for readers of this book.
The last four chapters which cover so well the encouragement of the saints to not sit idly by but engage the culture and coming storm derive, no doubt, from a true pastors heart, and you can tell the author has been a pastor for a long time. He knows what life and ministry are all about. He possesses a prophetic and practical message todays church so desperately needs to receive.
