I read this book twice just to make sure I got it right. As I dug into all the writer had to say I must agree, his MID-TRIB RAPTURE Position presents a very very strong case when compared to the Pre-Trib & Post-Trib positions. The fact that he confirms his case multiple times with the quotes from the Scripture in "plain speak" is very important to me and that's exactly what I feel John Shorey has done.
One other important item is that Shorey also points out that a few other (un-named) Rapture/Tribulation writers have taken the dangerous liberty of either adding to or taking away from the Word of the Book so as to strengthen their cases for a position other than a Mid-Trib Rapture. This sure appears to be playing with fire in my humble opinion.
Over all the book helped me solidify my thinking and I feel it thoroughly reviewed all 3--- PRE, MID and POST Trib Rapture positions. Of course one is always to be ready for the Lord's return but here Shorey also lists 6 events that still have to occur before the Anti-Christ is revealed. So, stay tuned we got stuff that still needs to happen but in all of that remain ready and working for the Kingdom via the power of the Holy Spirit!!

I loved this book.  I've read many books on reincarnation and life after "death" and found this the easiest to read and follow.  This book just confirmed what I've always felt -- there is more to life as we know it  and death is not death but a transition to the other side!

I bought this book with my first pregnancy, at age 34!!  I had no clue what-so-ever about being pregnant or what kind of things were going to happen to my body.  This book gave a very detailed month-by-month account of the changes that were to take place in my body.  I also found out that during my pregnancy that I was 'RH-negative.'  I really had no idea what this meant, or what type of problems could arise.  This book explained in detail about the condition and how the doctor's treat it.  It made me feel more assured that I understood about the negativity factor and how it could affect my future children.  I am now 42 years old and expecting my third child!  This is the third time I will be using this book as a pregnancy guide, and I believe that it has been and will be an asset for me and my husband this time around too!!!

This is simply the best book I've found on the subject.  This book has changed my view of self, my marriage dynamic, and my life as a whole.  Now to be honest, my marriage and sex life was not necessarily in bad shape before, but it was however getting a bit stale.  But after just a few weeks of putting these techniques into action, both are now totally electric. My wife is literally glowing, beaming. Walking on air.  Giddy.  She doesn't even know what hit her!  Me being more masculine, taking control, making decisions, telling her no and putting my foot down where necessary allows my wife to be feminine and submissive, where she naturally feels more comfortable and wants to be.  Go figure.  It has changed everything.  The advice in this book is so seemingly and naturally obvious, but we men in society have been programmed to be lazy, passive, nice-guy wimps who let our wives and girlfriends lead.  Wow.  What an incredible eye opener.  I do find myself wishing for more content, more advice...a little deeper probe into this dynamic and/or what to do or say in certain situations....maybe a sequel or part 2 to this book is needed, as the author is really onto something here. A life changer for sure

This is the best book I've read so far since my husband left.  I was married for over 30 years.  I haven't read all of the books available on this subject, but this is the BEST one I've read.  In fact, I'm reading it a second time.  All of my feelings of betrayal, hurt, anger, shock, etc. are covered by two women who have been there, done that.  So darn nice to not feel so alone in pain.  Face it, if you haven't lived it you can't know how it feels.  These women know.

I cannot overly emphasize how wonderful and enlightening this book is. I have been through seminary and have read dozens of theology books - this one is by far the best not only in terms of content but also in terms of writing style and ease of reading. The Lord Jesus is speaking directly to my heart through this book. I bought the Kindle version but now I will be buying the book also to keep on hand. Thank you!!!

It's taken me over 60 years to understand myself. And finally the whole picture has unfolded with understanding! I think this book has changed my life in a way that no other has ever before! If I could recommend a book to every human being to read, along with the Bible, this would be the one. I wish I had had it at the beginning of my life, rather than toward the end.
I am so grateful to God for all of these authors and their gifting's of love and willingness to come along side all of us with keys to help unlock our own prison doors in our souls and finally bring healing and freedom. The other books, Boundaries and Changes That Heal, have been such additional solid foundations. They are clear, to the point and bring such great understanding to even the whispered questions deep in your heart, that you have not even been able to put words to.
Thank you from the deepest part of me! I will never see life or people the same again! All for the better understanding!

Best book I've ever read on the fruit of the Spirit!!!

I bought this book to use as a guide for a Bible study on the Fruit of the Spirit.  It was the best material I've ever read on this subject.  My Bible study group was very blessed with what we discovered about God's blessings and what he can do through us.  This book has the general information you've learned already about the fruit of the Spirit; but even better, the author really delves into what it is in our lives and in our culture today that hinders us from really cultivating these fruit in our lives to be effective servants of Christ.  He also emphasizes that the fruit that God produces in us is not for our own personal benefit or enjoyment, but rather to serve our fellow Christians in church (as well and share the gospel with Gentiles).

It was evident that the author did lots of research and prayerful consideration to create the book.  I highly recommend this to any Christian, although, since it's a little advanced, it may be a little high-level for beginning believers?  Anyway, this book is fantastic and I'm buying my 3 siblings and my mom each a copy for Christmas!!

In my 58 plus years I've read a few dozen "self help/growth" books.... learned a little something from each one....by a great magrin this is the best book I've read.

There is no way to express to you all the things that lead me to this point but If you are considering reading it .... or even (especiall if you)  just happened upon it by accident....it's worth your time!

I have had this book on my shelf for ten years.  When first obtained, I read it, but it didn't resonate with me then because the author's experience was foreign to me.  Yesterday I pulled it out and read it the second time.  Oh my goodness!  What an incredible book!  After living away from my parents for 30 years, I recently moved into their house to take care of them.  Now I am finally facing the dysfunctionality of my childhood, reliving again the pain and isolation while desperately seeking ways to understand and forgive my parents and then move on.  God sent me this book.  It exactly speaks to my situation.  The author found forgiveness for his father and healing of his childhood, which gives me great hope.

I recommend this book for anyone who is finally coming to terms with their childhood.  And even if that is not your situation, this is still a very well written book with much spiritual edification.

I am repeatedly blown away by this book!  It has been so helpful to me personally, and I share it with those I love.  I would read certain sections, and literally, my jaw would drop.  This book really put all the pieces together for me; it makes complete sense.  I am only 21 and feel I am lucky, not only because my mother gave me this book, but also because I have truly understood it at a relatively young age.  "Remembering Wholeness" is eye opening and empowering at the same time.  One of my favorite chapters is the one titled, "The Universe is Abundant"...definitely one of those jaw-dropping sections!!
A MUST-READ!!! :)

One of the best books I've read on the subject! Go Dr. Lerma! Very uplifting and calming.
 This is one of those books you'll hate to turn loose of but you know you will pass it around to friends and colleagues. This is going to be one those books worn out from use.
 He has his own style of writing that I like. He's a physician and gives his take as one following people as they spend their last moments here on earth. A heartwrenching thing to have to go through I imagine, but I'd like to have him by my side when I go.
 He keeps an open mind yet still questions things like a man of medicine should do. But he  doesnt let science get in the way of the facts either. Something more people need to do.
5 stars and I cant wait for another book from him on the subject. Now I need to read his first one!

I happened on James Swartz website, [...] and read some of his free material. There is quite a bit of it and well worth reading. Other than this, I had never heard of him, despite having read non-dual books for over forty years. What I read was enough to convince me the book would be good.

This is one of the best books I've ever read on the subject. It brought me to final clarity, and after forty years, that's a lot! This is not new stuff. This is going back to the roots of Advaita Vedanta, explaining it clearly, and then pointing out the tried and true methods of obtaining enlightenment. This is not instant nirvana, this is the real method, the one's yogis practiced for thousands of years.

James explains that this is not a religion, not a philosophy, but a method to reach the truth. As with any method, there is work to be done. I'm not going to say more, except to repeat, this reader has read in this subject are for 40 years, this is one of the clearest, most precise works on the subject I have read. THANK YOU JAMES !!!

Wonderful book at this time in my life.  I'm caregiver for my 92 year old loving Mother/"Bestest Friend" in the whole world.  I've always sorta felt this way about "things" and this just confirms it.  I must Thank our Hospice RX delivery guy for turning me on to this book.  It is soooo helping me!!  Don't be afraid to read it.  REALLY!!!

Thank you Mr. Wagner!!  I just devoured your book.  I am not in the medical profession at all.  I am woman who had two sucessful planned home births with a certified nurse midwife.  I had to fight the insurance companies the whole way.  It involved a lot of research on my part.  This book has it all!  I wish it had been published years earlier!

The book confirms everything i have believed about the medicalization of pregnancy and childbirth.  I feel a deep sadness as I hear close friends tell their birth stories, believing that the trauma and drama is "normal".  My birth experiences were far different! My births were empowering and full of wonderfully profound memories.  Friends who gave birth in hospitals came out feeling like victims.

I would hope that every woman or man who loves a woman reads this book.  It is truly eye opening for those who don't know and a pep talk for those who do.  It is very well researched and his sources are outlined carefully!  If every woman of childbearing age reads this book and becomes informed of her choices, things will change on their own!!

Thank you again Mr. Wagner!!

I read this book 40 years ago. As a young man I  thought it was great. As I approach 60 it is even better! This should be re-released and a copy given to every new parent!
