Your review of the referenced book is suggested. It analyzes the Bible's Book of Revelation and events surrounding the related end time anticipated. There have been any number of books addressing these subjects in current times, but yet one more is proposed for very good reason. “The Tend Time” is distinctly unique in that it provides an insight into Revelation heretofore unavailable.

This insight, in turn, has been afforded by the identification of a new name for the value 666 cited in Revelation 13: 18. Such identification has been made possible by a recent international agreement assigning new and unique numerical values to letters of western hemisphere languages. The name identified has in turn resulted in an interpretation of the Book of Revelation that speaks for itself. As such, it is worthy of the interest of all who search for a better understanding of this Biblical book. Specifically,

•It explores current world events within the context of Biblical prophecies.
•It provides a comprehensive and rational analysis of this subject matter that is notably consistent with Catholic doctrine.
•And it is a must read for anyone seeking Christian perspective and answers not otherwise available.

For anyone acquainted with the history of attempts to interpret Revelation, these assertions are quite impressive. They are, in fact, unprecedented, since a convincing interpretation of Revelation has been sought for almost two millennia. Review of this book should leave you with the feeling that this goal has finally been achieved.

The book has been authored by Kirche Enterprises, Inc. which provides an in depth introduction at its web site http://kircheinc.com. A paperback rendition can be purchased at the Amazon.com Book Department or by clicking here.
Good Reading,

Mike Reilly]]>

Anyone interested in reading fantastic poetry that had beautiful use of the English language and great metaphors and meditations should dive into a copy of Gerard Manley Hopkins' : The Major Works. He also wrote prose, some of which was included in this volume.

One of my all-time favorite poems is his "The Windhover".

Gerard Manley Hopkins, S.J. (28 July 1844 – 8 June 1889), was an English poet of Welsh ancestry, a Roman Catholic convert, and Jesuit priest, whose 20th-century fame established him posthumously among the leading Victorian poets. His experimental explorations in prosody (especially sprung rhythm) and his use of imagery established him as a daring innovator in a period of largely traditional verse.]]>

Anyway, I finally read a book I've had for years but never got around to. It was Fr. Elijah by Michael O'Brien. I thought it was great. I'm pretty sure he's written some other books, but didn't know if they were good or not. Can anyone comment about his other writings -- are they worthwhile, or not?

Thanks for your help!]]>
