“…There will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars…Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.” Luke 21:25a, 28
It is rare that Scripture, science, and history align with each other, yet the last three series of Four Blood Moons have done exactly that. Are these the “signs” that God refers to in His Word? If they are, what do they mean? What is their prophetic significance?
In this riveting book, New York Times best-selling author, Pastor John Hagee, explores the supernatural connection of certain celestial events to biblical prophecy—and to the future of God’s chosen people and to the nations of the world.
Just as in biblical times, God is controlling the sun, the moon, and the stars to send our generation a signal that something big is about to happen. The question is: Are we watching and listening to His message?

it’s like this …
By simplejay123
I messed up on this one, and wound up paying full retail + tax for this book. I’m still pretty happy with the value I got for my money. I’m writing this review to possibly help others decide if they would be interested in buying the book. One thing that I will point out is that about the first half of the first chapter contains some pro-Israel writing. That may catch a reader unfamiliar with John Hagee by surprise. Just read through it. The Section 2 of the book is called The Spine of Prophecy. It is an effective way of preparing the reader for what comes in the final section. It covers things like does the “end of the age” refer to the rapture of the church? And, how many more signs must be fulfilled before the church can be raptured? I also enjoyed the historical material included from Josephus. Chapter 6 is entitled Concerning the Rapture. Perhaps that was my favorite chapter. I found a couple of points that were somewhat new to me; and even somewhat encouraging. With all that’s going on during the endtime, it can be easy to get confused as to where rapture fits in the timeline. I was interested to read Hagee’s thoughts on Replacement Theology. Chapter 9 is entitled Famine, Earthquakes and Anarchy. I find Hagee tends to excel in communicating how things really are. I think many, too many, people just are not able to imagine problems on a truly massive scale. There was a interesting note that the gospel of salvation will be preached until the church is raptured. Then the gospel of the kingdom shall be preached. Section 3 is on the four blood moons. The last chapter was as good as I hoped it would be. For those who might have seen Hagee’s sermon series on this subject; I felt I ended the book with a little more information than I had from the sermon series. However, there was no end date determined. Overall, this is probably my favorite book on the subject. I actually ended the book feeling a little more upbeat about the coming end.

Riveting End-time Prophecy…A Must Read
By TS Mathews
Pastor John Hagee has once again written a very thought provoking book that delves into Bible Prophesy that most people, non-Christian or Christian, have never heard about. From the very first page I found myself being drawn into it because not only is it an interesting subject for me as a Christian; I found Pastor Hagee’s writing was very easy to understand. This is an in-depth study of a subject even life-long Christians find to be daunting yet I never once found myself having to stop and re-read something to understand what he was explaining. Before this book I had never heard of the Four Blood Moons and I have been in church my entire life.Pastor Hagee lets you know in plain everyday language that what is going to come to pass shortly will place Israel into the limelight even more than ever. So many people through the years have tried to wipe them from the earth but this will never happen. Pastor Hagee goes into great detail not only using the Bible but also history books to prove his point.If you are curious about the way things are going to play out in the Middle-East you need to pick up a copy of this. You may find this to be a tad frightening yet before you finish it you will know there is an answer to the coming Apocalypse and His name is Jesus, the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. Thank you Pastor Hagee for once again for sending out a warning for all to be ready when Jesus comes back.***I was given a copy of this from Worthy Publishers and Net Galley in exchange for my honest opinion.***

God using sun and moon to indicate Israel’s future
By Joan N.
A synopsis:Hagee shows that God uses the sun and moon as signs, giving us the biblical evidence, and connecting them to the history of Israel. He explores the importance of the Shemittah year, the relevance of 490 year events, the significance of the 9th of Av. He spends quite some time on Israel and the importance of the nation in the plans of God. He covers the importance of Passover and the Feast of Tabernacles.Hagee reviews the previous times the four blood moons occurred on the Jewish holidays of Passover and Feast of Tabernacles. In 1493-94 and the expulsion of Jews from Spain, 1949-50 and the Jews fighting for their land, 1967-68 and the Jews reclaiming the entire city of Jerusalem. The four lunar eclipses (blood moons) of 2014-15 are: Passover, April 15, 2014, Feast of Tabernacles, October 8, 2014, (Total solar eclipse March 20, 2015) Passover, April 4, 2015, Feast of Tabernacles, September 28, 2015.Hagee also notes that the Shemittah year begins September 25, 2014 and ends September 13, 2015.An evaluation:Hagee notes, “…several Tetrads have occurred in the past five hundred years, only three have corresponded to the Jewish Feasts as well as being linked to historical events significant to Israel.” (224) While I would say this means there is no guarantee this Tetrad will have any significance to Israel’s history, Hagee writes, “…we can rightly conclude that the next series of Four Blood Moons of 2014 and 2015 will also hold significance for Israel and the Jewish people.” (225) And, “The final Four Blood Moons are signaling that something big is coming….something that will change the world forever.” (237, ellipse in original)Hagee doesn’t hedge his prediction by saying something “might” or “could” happen. He is definite in his prediction. Time will tell.An error:Hagee writes, “There was a total solar eclipse on September 24, 1493 – one day before the blood moon of the Feast of Tabernacles, September 25, 1493.” (184) While there was a lunar eclipse as Hagee reports, according to the catalog of solar eclipses from the NASA web site, there was no solar eclipse on that date, let alone a total one. There were solar eclipses in that year on April 16 and October 10. In a solar eclipse, the moon is between the sun and the earth, blocking out the sun’s light. The blood moon is a lunar eclipse, meaning the earth is between the sun and the moon, keeping the sunlight from hitting the moon. A solar eclipse and and lunar eclipse are just not going to happen on successive days! Answers in Genesis has a good web page that explains this.A contradiction:Hagee writes, “NASA has stated that this will be the last appearance of a Tetrad in this century.” (221) But he also writes, “Seven more Tetrads will take place in the twenty-first century…” (224-5)A caution:There are many views on the details of Jesus’ second coming. There are pre-, mid-, and post-tribulationists. There are some who believe a secret rapture will happen and others who believe Jesus returns once and that’s it.Hagee calls those who teach that there is no (secret) Rapture of the church “false prophets.” (78) He also says if you’re not looking for Jesus you won’t go with Him in the Rapture. (79) Yet, he contradicts that statement by later saying, “All Christians will have been caught up…” (88, italics his)So the caution is that there have been Christians throughout the centuries who have not believed in a (secret) Rapture, an idea that gained recognition in the 1850s.Hagee also comes down hard on those who believe that Christians are now considered the true seed of Abraham and are also now heirs of the promises to Abraham, a literal interpretation of Galatians 3:29. Many believe that Christians would not necessarily replace the Jews with respect to the promises, but would, in some sense be included.A final comment:I really like prophetic books that include predictions for the near future. Lord willing, many of us will live through the next couple of years to find out if Hagee is right.I requested and received a complimentary egalley of this book from the publisher for the purpose of this review.
