Download or read book Waiting for the Comeback written by Rusty McCracken and published by . This book was released on 2019-02-11 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Satan has no real power over Christians. He only has doubt. So what if the garden of Eden were underwater, Lucifer tweaked the Ten Commandments, or faith was found in whatever was the acceptable behavior of the majority? Waiting for the Comeback is a thought-provoking, inspiring, and sometimes controversial look at what we humans are accepting as today's norms. At a time when evil seems to be called good and the good become boring, turning a blind eye should not be confused with turning the other cheek. Christian beliefs and faith have been bruised enough. It is time to prepare for the Second Coming. Stand strong in the way, the truth, and the light and rally your team. The Comeback is going to be amazing. You wouldn't want to be on the losing side in the end. Readers will experience an understanding of events from both a personal and outsider's viewpoint. These essays and fictional stories provide a basis for all of us to examine the course we feel believers should be traveling. As Christians, we should be excited by the thought of Jesus' return because every day, we are closer to the Comeback than ever. But in most cases, it seems we are moving farther away from God's plan as we try to create him in our image rather than bettering ourselves to his standards.
