Hello, dear friends.

I was wondering what you all thought of the Left Behind Series. Have any of you read them? What did you think? I am very curious to hear your opinions as I have seen mixed thoughts on them.

Have a blessed day!

I have not seen any of them, but many of my friends like the series very much. It may be well written and enjoyable. But I am post-trib so I myself have not read them. It would seem that almost all who like them are pre-trib, like the series, most post-trib people that have read them feel they do a disservice to Christians, who feel they will be raptured away before the anti-Christ comes and causes his havoc. I do not wish to start a discussion with anyone about this, because I have found they prove fruitless, and some get angry. Just wanted to reply to the previous post. Thank you

I have them all. That is one of the few books I buy instead of getting from the Library. We are on a fixed income but, I find the left behind books a must. My sister also a Christian refuses to read them. She thinks she is "too spiritual" to read Christian fiction. Only non-fiction.
Me, I read a series Christian Mystery book and even read Christian romance. I think there is room in a Christian for books to read for fun as well as serious books for study. But, then again, I will never be as "good" as my sister, just ask her. [Big Grin]

I have read quite a few, myself, and they have been absolute page-turners. While I understand that it's all fiction it did make me think of things that I hadn't throught of before.
