When Time Finally Runs Out by Peter Bellone is a religious book centered on the return of Jesus to take his bride to the already prepared mansion, marry the bride, and have the wedding supper. The book explores what will occur before Christ's return and what happens after. It also talks in detail about man's enslavement under Satan that will take place for six thousand years. Read this book to get the details.

The book is written in a conversational style and tone. While reading, readers will feel they are discussing religion and the book's entire theme. This strategy is commendable because most writers need help to create an image of the audience and talk with them while writing a piece.

The author also uses stories of people to drive home some points needed in the book. Though biblical stories are told in the book, the author uses non-biblical stories to help readers know that references are not just restricted to the scriptures.

The author also used references from some religious books and sources such as the Hebrew calendar and Merriam-Webster dictionary. There were also internal links to books where references were made to a subject matter discussed earlier. The author also used tables to drive some points home. For instance, there was a table depicting the actions of Adam in comparison with Jesus while on earth, a table of the life of a Hebrew boy, and a table of the month of Aviv — the month of Jesus' death.

There were some downsides. The author uses certain abbreviations, like WWJD, in the book without writing the meaning. The author also desperately tried to prove his intention in writing the book. I did not see it as an issue initially. However, the frequency was now worrisome.

Another downside to the book is the scattering of ideas and notions. The author would have dedicated a chapter to discussing a particular subject before moving to the next one. For instance, the story of Adam and Eve cuts across almost all chapters in the book, making it feel repetitive. There were also a plethora of grammatical issues. Therefore, I rate the book three out of five stars.

When Time Finally Runs Out by Peter Bellone is recommended to individuals with questions about their Christian life.
