New Release: Times of Destruction A Christian End Times Thriller

WEATHERFORD, Texas - Feb. 25, 2014 - PRLog -- Christian indie author Cliff Ball announces his latest novel, Times of Destruction. It is the fifth novel in The End Times Saga. Seven novels are currently planned for the series. The novel is available in paperback, ebook, and eventually as an audiobook. Times of Destruction is a mixture of end times thriller, dystopian, and science fiction.

What Times of Destruction is about:

In the book, after the rapture occurs, Michael Evans introduces the man who becomes the world leader. The new leader, calling himself the Patriarch and renaming the United Nations to the Union of United Earth, consolidates his power and moves the new world capital to the city of Babylon in Iraq. The Patriarch divides the world into ten administrative regions and has ten men administer those regions for him. Next, he appoints a world-renowned prosperity gospel preacher as the new High Priest for the global religion.

During the first three and a half years, the Patriarch reorganizes the world economy, the High Priest creates a loyalty mark for people to take to show their loyalty to the Union, and then disasters begin occurring as predicted in the Bible. The first trumpet announces hail and fire mixed with blood, which kills 1/3 of plant life. The second announces a great mountain, an asteroid, burning with fire from space that's hurled into the sea, where it kills 1/3 of ocean life. The third is a comet that turns 1/3 of the waters bitter. The fourth extinguishes 1/3 of the light from the sun, moon, and the stars. The fifth signals those that aren't sealed by God are harmed by demon-possessed "locusts." With the sixth, World War III occurs. The seventh will be in the next novel, highlighting the next three and a half years.

As they deal with these challenges, the characters also put up with two witnesses who arrive in Jerusalem preaching the Gospel -- and warning of the beast and his false prophet. As the Patriarch deals with the disasters, the witnesses, and the Jews in Israel, the world moves closer to the middle of the Tribulation, where the Patriarch's life will change and judgments begin to ramp up.
