Racing Toward Armageddon: The Three Great Religions and the Plot to End the World
By Michael Baigent

“Racing Toward Armageddon” by Michael Baigent explores how theology and geopolitics converge in ways that still shape the modern world.

Baigent examines ancient prophecies within Christianity, Judaism, and Islam, uncovering how interpretations of the “end times” can influence real-world actions. He raises a provocative question — are some religious groups merely waiting for prophecy to unfold, or are they actively trying to bring it about?

The book traces the political consequences of these beliefs, especially in the Middle East, where Jerusalem stands at the center of both spiritual hope and geopolitical tension. Through this lens, Baigent reveals how deeply personal faith can ripple outward, affecting nations, policies, and global stability.

Released years ago but strikingly relevant today, Racing Toward Armageddon remains a powerful reminder of how belief, prophecy, and power are intertwined — and how humanity’s vision of the divine future continues to shape its earthly present.

Originally, this video was intended to show every page of the book. But given the events that were unfolding in Israel that week, (October 7th), it felt right to leave it at the cover — a single, sobering image that speaks for itself.
