Forty million copies of the "Left Behind" series have been sold. The authors state freely their series is a "work of fiction." Fiction is not a sin, nor even criminal. But, should fiction evolve into theology? The first rule of authorship: "Identify your audience." This book is not for everyone. It is only for those who have ever wondered about the scriptural basis for the Rapture. Jack Wasson has been a student of the Bible since he was a teenager. In 1972, he graduated from Southwestern Assemblies of God College, Waxahachie, Texas. In 1979, he graduated summa cum laude from the University of Texas, Arlington, with multiple bachelor's degrees that included modern European history, international political science, and psychology. He served in the Army as an officer in military intelligence. As an independent businessman, he has worked in real estate, oil development, construction and finance. He has been actively involved in evangelistic and mission's work since 1972. He travels frequently to the Middle East. This is his first book.
