    We make two mistakes when looking for Jesus’ return - tune out or fall into despair. Learn how to occupy and the first of three studies on the Rapture of the church.

In A.D. 204 a Roman Christian named Hippolytus records that a bishop was convinced that the Lord was going to return immediately. He urged his ...read more
