Publisher's Synopsis
It's time to be honest. Are you completely confident and serene when you open your eyes each morning and behold what the world has become? Before drifting off to sleep, are you unwaveringly fearless and maybe even looking forward to shedding mortality for immortality? Most people harbor doubts, particularly the kind they're afraid to speak aloud lest others realize they aren't as certain of their beliefs as they appear. This is short study of God's Word offered in the context of real world events, social conflict, systemic false-teaching, and the internal struggles every man, woman, boy, and girl face in a world that denies Truth. The author doesn't tell anyone what to believe. She poses questions and directs the reader to God's Word for guidance on finding his or her personal answer; Yes or No. Do you know why you believe what you do? Plenty of folks aren't sure what they believe. Even if your beliefs are solid and immovable, do you know how you arrived at them? Did you adopt your family's faith? The doctrine of a denomination? The creed of an independent church? Not all creeds, doctrines, and family traditions are rooted in truth. If all stood on the same truth there would be perfect agreement in the world. Every system of beliefs insists it is founded on truth. Is there one truth or more? Have you done the required due diligence to know with certainty that your truth is The Truth? There are surprisingly few universal agreements in Christianity. Do you know how many Bibles and how many different personalities named Jesus serve "Christians" today? How can you know that the Bible you read and the Jesus you worship is the right one? "Rapture and Revelation" challenges readers to answer questions permitting no response other than "yes" or "no." The gray areas and relativism found in most books and studies about faith promote doubt because they insist every answer lies somewhere in the middle between yea or nay. If your ears tend to itch because you only want to read what agrees with you, then gear up for battle before opening this book. How much are you willing to invest in your eternity?
