Pastor, teacher, and theologian Stanford E. Murrell tells the dramatic story of how Jesus Christ used 12 ordinary men to transform the world through a radically powerful yet simple message of hope and redemption for all humanity.
"Like millions of other Christians, I was taught from childhood to believe in the doctrine of the Rapture, meaning that the Church is to be taken away from earth prior to a tumultuous seven-year period known as The Great Tribulation. The most well-known religious novel series, Left Behind, is based on this pretribulational rapture theory. Unfortunately, countless millions have been encouraged to believe the Rapture theory conveys a historical Christian faith, and biblical truth. Nothing could be more erroneous than that belief."
