This book opens with the following clarification: “What you are about to read is presented in the form of a story, but what is contained within the story is real.”
“The Harbinger” is a fictional story that points to biblical truth concerning the judgment of America.
It is important to note that the author, Johnathan Cahn, does not argue that the prophecies cited are for America only, but that America is following in the same pattern Israel has in terms of disregarding and disobeying God and His subsequent discipline and judgment.
I’m about a third of the way through this book and it is quite an eye-opener. I admit to being very skeptical about books such as this. They tend to be sensationalistic and play fast and loose with the scripture. However, I have to say that I am impressed with it so far and the parallels Cahn draws between ancient Israel and the United States are clear and sobering.
Cahn is a Messianic Jew who leads “Hope of the World Ministries” and the Jerusalem Center/Beth Israel.
I have viewed the DVD’s associated with this book and they are very good too. I recommend this book.
I was fascinated listening to you talk about this book a few days ago. Definitely want to check this one out.
