from Holland to the day After - Johan Peters - Bog

'from Holland to the day After' opens with the life story of Johan Peters about his youth in Holland along with some of his antics as a child, leading us then through his teen years. We get an interesting peek at Johan's social life, his highs and lows, his intense frustrations in wanting to discover the answers to questions that have plagued mankind since the beginning of time: Who am I? Where did I come from? Where am I going? All his searching culminated in a spiritual experience one dark night on the beach. Throughout the book we find his love for God and fellowman growing. As the focus of the book moves from his youth quickly forward to the present, it is clear that he distances himself from religious institutions and the interpretations of their spiritual leaders; in fact, the author's obvious desire to know more has caused him to go back and search out the original sacred writing of the different world religions from which he brings two major subject threads to the surface; the Holy One / Messiah / Purush Prajapati and the return of the Holy One. He weaves together the prophetic writings of the Quran, the Rig Vedas and the Gita, the Buddha, as well as the Judaic Prophets and Apocalyptic writings of the New Testament. With his down-to-earth perspective, and straightforward yet deeply insightful approach the author has taken on complicated and much-debated topics. According to the simple interpretation of the different writings, but mainly referring to the writings of the prophet Daniel and the Apocalypse, we discover an amazing insight of the near future in which will unfold the final 7 year episode of world history as we know it, culminating in an atomic holocaust and the battle of Armageddon. 'The beyond' is a closing chapter that brings us out of the aftermath. He is obviously not a religious person, neither is he politically correct, some might even find his writings controversial. Although some may find his unconventional style surprising, his arguments leave us thinking "What if?" In the appendix "heaven, hell and in between" the author brings out the controversial scriptures of hellfire and he gives a totally new outlook and amazingly fresh insights on this subject!
