What is your opinion of the series?
I myself agree with most of it but not all.
I believe the Rapture will happen in the middle of tribulation.
So what are your thoughs on the series?
Or if you have only read a few of the books,? what is your opinion?

Yes, I have read the first few books. Up to the point where they killed the anti-christ. I was laughing to hard to go on. I don’t believe a word of what that book says, I do not believe it will be anything like that. Thats my opinion.  |

If these books are like others I have read on like subject, the books probably come out seeming much like an exagerated fairy tale or Hollywood alien/monster story. Not to mention too corney for words. However I have never read this series of books so cannot critique them. I only know of similar ones I have read. These books would never lead me to Christ as they seem unreal in their fabrication and not of what God is saying in His word. |

I've read all the books so far. I think they are written quite well...good reading material. Makes one think. Do I believe it will happen that way? Probably not...but, as I said, good reading (my oldest two are reading the series for kids). |

LOL...I have never watched the movie...I read the books to keep me occupied on a road trip. They kept me interested enough to see how these ppl viewed the whole rapture.
I think they are pretty good story tellers.

Well written they are, I hope that the books make those unbelievers, believe. I know of a few people on the net that have read the books are are now looking for a Church. Now thats Good News. Has anyone y'all know done the same after reading the books? The Lord moves in mysterious way. |

I enjoyed them all - just finishing up the last one. Compared to Christian fiction overall, I think they are middle of the road. Authors such as Dekker and Peretti spin a much better tale. I'd give the Left Behind series a C+ or B- overall, and (Sapph) I don't think it was a waste of my time to read them. But, as I say, compared to Dekker's "Blink", "Blessed Child" and "A Man Called Blessed", I have to admit "Left Behind" is somewhat like a B-movie. i.e.: 'Tremmors' is one of my favorite flicks but it's no 'Private Ryan' - same kind of comparison. |

I enjoyed them all as well. I know that it was a fictional story, but it sure made you think. The scriptural facts were used to weave a good story line. I always say the last one then the next one would come out and it would be my favorite. So I don't really have a favorite.
My only complain is they way they were sold, to long in between books, and I think they lost some of the orginal audience, and its was irritating to have to wait for the paper backs month after the hard back......grrrrr.

How do you think I felt, I have them in hardback. I hated waiting months betweens the books as well. |
