The Lord will come again; He promised us that. But is His church ready? We know neither the day nor the hour of Christ’s return, but we are instructed to be ready at all times. Aimee Semple McPherson felt the urgency of this call, and she urges the church to be ready for His glorious return. Join “Sister Aimee,” whom Time magazine named one of the most influential people of the twentieth century, in discovering what the second coming of Christ means to the church today. In this book, she answers questions that face many believers: Is Christ coming? How is He coming? When is He coming? For whom is He coming? The harvest is ready, and the Lord will come back to reap a bountiful, mature body of believers. Be prepared to rise up and meet Christ when He appears in the clouds of glory!

The second coming of Christ is the most anticipated, consequential, and controversial event since His Ascension. For 2,000 years, it has been loved, hated, dreaded, and ignored. Committed Christians have loved it, sinners have hated it, carnal Christians have dreaded it, and lukewarm Christians have ignored it. Thus, it has been yearned for, mocked, feared, and yawned at, and yet debated ad nauseam. But there it is, in Jesus’ own immortal words, “I will come again!” (John 14:3). Today a turbulent vortex of confusion and controversy swirls around just what Jesus meant and when He is coming. This powerful new book by Greg Hinnant seeks to quell the controversy and clarify the confusion by setting forth God's biblical prophetic plan for Christ's appearing - the rapture - and the amazing divinely scheduled events that follow on earth and in heaven. It also offers much detailed, practical, biblical teaching on how to be prepared for the rapture. Finally, it closes with a very thorough, informative, concisely written comparison of the major Christian End-Times views. Many books present biblical prophecies about Christ’s Second Coming, but offer little or no Christian living instructions. Others present excellent Christian living instructions, but do not interpret End-Times prophecy. Rich with abundant prophetic and Christian living instructions, this book is truly unique. You will not find another like it! Described as “a comprehensive handbook for the preparation of the bride of Christ,” it is a must-read for pastors, leaders, and anyone seriously desiring to be ready when Jesus suddenly appears to receive His church.

"The being whom we call Christ once walked the earth in flesh and blood at the beginning of our era. He will never again return in a physical body, for that was a unique event and will not be repeated. But He will come again in an etheric form in the period I have mentioned. People will learn to perceive Christ by virtue of growing towards him through this etheric perception." Many contemporaries were unaware of Christ's incarnation on earth at the beginning of the modern era. And today, says Rudolf Steiner, many remain ignorant of the most important event of our time: the appearance of Christ in the etheric - or life - realm of the earth. Fundamentalist and millennial groups await a second physical incarnation, while atheists and materialists deny spirit altogether. Nevertheless, an incisive transformation is taking place in the human soul that will lead to an emerging clairvoyance. Just as Paul perceived Christ at Damascus, so may every human being experience Him today.
