Rossing "], "item_description" : "A leading New Testament scholar exposes the myth of The Rapture and restores the Book of Revelation's true message of God's love Lucid and passionate. --Harper's The idea of The Rapture--the return of Christ at the end of times to rescue and deliver born-again Christians off the earth--is an extremely popular interpretation of the biblical book of Revelation. This dramatic understanding of the end-times has inspired recent doomsday prophecies and infiltrated popular media, as exemplified by the wildly successful Left Behind franchise. In The Rapture Exposed, New Testament scholar Barbara Rossing argues that this script for the world's future is nothing more than a disingenuous distortion of the Bible, based on a psychology of fear. The truth is that Revelation offers a vision of God's healing love for the world. The Rapture Exposed reclaims Christianity from fundamentalists' destructive reading of the biblical story and back into God's beloved community.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers4.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/0/81/334/314/0813343143_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "18.99", "online_price" : "18.99", "our_price" : "18.99", "club_price" : "18.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
