Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord is coming back.

I have stumbled across a few jems i thought i'd share. I bought a [thriller] novel by Tim Lahaye called Babylon Rising. He is a best selling Christian author. My husband reads a lot of Stephen King/Dean Koontz and i don't mind the odd thriller either. But Both those authors are a little too...un-Christiany in their writtings. Good, but not very good for the Christian heart if you know what i mean! In finding a suitable author to read, i'm VERY picky!!

So i found Babylon Rising in the local Christian book shop and it looked pretty good. As did the second book in the series, The Secret on Ararat, that i bought with it, thinking i could persuade John with some "Wholesome" thrillers.

I started reading Babylon Rising myself and i have to say that this author has definatly got some talent!

Writting is his ministry. He writes different stuff. But i'm just commenting on these novels [He also wrote the Left Behind series, as well as some other books] as i haven't read anything else of his.

Tim has a knack of getting into the story straight away, Preaching the word throughout the book, and making us want to learn more about the biblical matters, as well as writting a darn good thiller with deep, loveable [and hateable] charecters!

I probably read one novel per year, if that. But after i finished his first book, i got straight into the second!

In chapter two, book two, he done a lively "piece" on the Bride of Christ, and how we are to be ready...really ready! And even though i've heard about the bride and being ready several times in my walk, His words [Well, Jesus's] really struck a chord in me! Enough that i've pondered over it for 2 days. Are my affairs in order? Is my "house" clean? Am i ready for departure? I'm seriously working on it!

I just want to consume this book, and i can't wait to find book three!

For anyone who likes thrillers, these books are a must!
