The Book

In this book, Jack Hermes presents the broad sweep of the history of our world in a comprehensive review of the Bible’s description of that history. In a thorough and convincing way, he lays out how important it is to understand our world in light of the relationship between God and Satan. This struggle plays itself out again and again in history, not just as an earthly conflict between good and evil, but as God’s rescue of those caught in the darkness of Satan’s lies. As he explains how this ongoing battle applies to our society, to our own lives, and to the future, Jack makes it clear from Scripture that just as the almighty God has been in control from the beginning of it all, he will bring this world to its end in accord with his saving work in Christ.

Satan’s Global Change before God’s Fiery Judgment by Jack Hermes is a modern-day attempt of what the apostle Paul did at the Areopagus in Acts 17:22–34, by taking his readers from the things they know to the things they do not know. Through this book, Jack uses the beliefs of our society and the scientific community as a springboard to ultimately point them to the truth of Jesus Christ and the salvation he won for us on the cross. As the book progresses, Jack works to correct the misconceptions of how the world will end and the reason for its demise.

The Old and New Testaments were written over a period of one thousand six hundred years by forty writers of various backgrounds from many different countries, making it a historical document of continuity. These biblical writings contain one thousand eight hundred seventeen prophecies. One thousand two hundred thirty-nine are found in the Old Testament with five hundred seventy-eight being recorded in the New Testament. Through archaeological findings, historical tablets of Assyria, Babylon, Persia, and Greece and Roman history, God has fulfilled every prophecy recorded in the Old Testament. With the expansion of the Middle East, the development of Western and Eastern Europe, and the colonization of the New World, God has carried out the majority of the New Testament prophecies and now appears to be bringing to light through the happenings of today the prophecies for Satan’s defeat, his eternal internment, and the fiery ending for this world and his kingdom of darkness.

The writings of this book have verified the validity of God’s written Word as he raised nations and leaders to fulfill his promise for man’s salvation and prepared the pathway for Satan’s defeat.
