65 Signs Of The Times Leading Up To The Second Coming (2000) - Plot & Excerpts
I enjoyed reviewing 65 of the signs of the times set forth in the scriptures. This book is very straightforward and easy to understand. I can tell the author is a presenter since the book reads basically like a PowerPoint presentation with the commentary added. The author dispels rumors and corrects myths by expounding scripture and quoting modern prophets. He doesn't guess at things we do not know about. He also does his best to use these signs to booster faith and not instill fear. We should look forward with faith. D&C 45:35 "And I said unto them: Be not troubled, for, when all these things shall come to pass, ye may know that the promises which have been made unto you shall be fulfilled." Interested in the last days leading up to the 2nd Coming? This book's a really good summary and starting place, well documented with LDS quotes and lots of scriptural references. The organization is particularly appealing: resisting the chronological sequences people speculate about, Ridges organizes the prophecies into those already fulfilled, those ongoing, and those to be fulfilled in the future. I especially like his orientation, since he begins with Pres. Hinckley and Monson's urgings to look on the positive, even as the negative seems to overwhelm modern life.
