Review of Adumbrations: The Kingdom & Coming of Christ in the Book of Daniel
By Marty Angelo

It is not everyday I am asked to review a book. Usually I just absorb myself in reading two or three books per week not thinking about having to make comments about what I've read to others. Therefore, when Kurt Simmons sent me an email asking me if I would like to review his new book, "Adumbrations" I was humbled.

Having stumbled into "fulfilled eschatology" back in the mid-1980s I always kept my beliefs to myself. The very few people I shared my beliefs with looked at me like I was some kind of kook. "You have to be kidding," was the usual response. So I learned to keep my end-time
comments to a minimum. I never thought I would meet people who believed the same way.

God did prompt me to write down my thoughts in a manuscript entitled: "Vision of New Jerusalem: Now" so as not to forget what He clearly taught me.

The invention of the Internet in the 1990s changed the way we communicate with each other. Through it I began finding people of similar end-time beliefs and everything 
started to fall in place. Authors such as Max King, John Noe, Don Preston, Ed Stevens and Kurt Simmons kept springing up in my Google search results when I queried for "fulfilled eschatology ". I began purchasing every book these gifted authors published. They all confirmed what God revealed to me back when He guided me into the truth of His statement, "this generation shall not pass away till all these things are fulfilled.”

So when Kurt asked me to review his new book I was taken back. "This has come full circle," I thought to myself. Now is the time to give back to a scholar who has richly blessed me since I first laid eyes on his first publication and excellent monthly newsletter. However, I
wanted to be honest without bias. Not just write a review for a newfound friend but also look at this new work as someone who knew nothing about "end-times" doctrines.

This was no easy task because I am a very fast reader and when I started "Adumbrations" I was so blessed from just the first few pages that I had to slow myself down to a crawl, taking in word for word like a little child.

Simmons' new book is the best book I ever read on the Book of Daniel. In fact, it is one of the best books I've ever read. There are so many proven facts in this book that if it was given to a non-Christian the person would have to convert halfway through it because the gospel screams out in capital letters each and every chapter.

No one can walk away from this book without knowing Jesus as Lord and Savior of the world. His spiritual Kingdom message is declared loud and clear. I never thought the Book of Daniel could be such an evangelist tool. Usually people tell new believers to read the Gospel
of John to learn more of Christ. Not with Kurt's book. Kurt guides you through the Book of Daniel explaining each chapter and verse perfectly, all leading to understanding beyond a shadow of a doubt that Jesus is not only the prophesized Savior and Messiah but King and understanding His "everlasting Kingdom."

After reading "Adumbrations" the debate ends in anyone's mind regarding whether Christianity is real.

Thought: “Salvation is of the Jews … “. People do not take seriously the importance of “this generation” Christ’s statement. They do not take the time to actually study what happened “historically” during the 40 years after Jesus’ ascension leading up to the 70AD destruction of Jerusalem.

With futurist teachings streaming throughout Christianity for the past few generations people have moved away from understanding “Salvation is of the Jews” and replaced it with “Salvation is of my denomination”. Church buildings, attendance, and parroting modern
man’s prophetic teachings have sidetracked and imprisoned entire major denominational congregations.

However, the book “Adumbrations” has the ability of steering curious seekers of the truth to a complete and thorough understanding of exactly what Jesus meant when He made His famous statement to the lady by the well, “Salvation is of the Jews.”

One has to get serious about deciding just who and where our salvation truly does come from. “Adumbrations” will handle each and every argument right down to the last
letter.
