The Branch Davidians of Waco
Author: Kenneth G. C. Newport
Publisher: OUP Oxford
ISBN: 0191514314
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 396
Book Description
What were the beliefs of the Branch Davidians? This is the first full scholarly account of their history. Kenneth G. C. Newport argues that, far from being an act of unfathomable religious insanity, the calamitous fire at Waco in 1993 was the culmination of a long theological and historical tradition that goes back many decades. The Branch Davidians under David Koresh were an eschatologically confident community that had long expected that the American government, whom they identified as the Lamb-like Beast of the book of Revelation, would one day arrive to seek to destroy God's remnant people. The end result, the fire, must be seen in this context.

Pages : 586
Book Description
"After another long day at work, all Jon Christensen wanted was a cheap burger and some peace and quiet. When he pulled into the local McDonald's, Jon only had the usual cares on his mind. His sister. The bills. A career with seemingly nowhere to go. But after a confusing encounter at the cash register triggers a violent episode in the parking lot, he's quickly pulled into a world he doesn't understand. His few careless sentences - and the odd gift of languages he's kept hidden for years - wind up thrusting him right into the middle of a chaotic magical free-for-all, a battle taking place in the shadows of society. Entangled in an increasingly complex web of violence and lies, he's left with a choice: adapt, or die. Surrounded by strangers, Jon must struggle to survive, searching out friends amidst a sea of foes. If he can get his group of strays and rejects to work together, there's a chance they might just make it out alive. Should he fail, the consequences will be dire - not only for Jon, but also for those he loves"--Amazon.com.
