After reading the book back in the late 1970s and early 1980s, I begin become more involved in world events, things happen to the Earth, wars, common and evil political manifestations. It appears that this book about biblical prophecies is more real in the 21st century than when it was first written. It would be good to bring the book and the movie up-to-date to our current times to see how close we are to the end of times!
