Raising the Ruins

Résumé du livre

IT IS THE MOST ASTONISHING STORY IN MODERN RELIGION.What happened to the global humanitarian empire of Herbert W. Armstrong, the worlds leading televangelist and one of the most prominent religious leaders of the 20th century? Followed by millions worldwide his legacy of Bible-based humanitarianism came under attack after he died. The leaders who took control of the church he founded, after pledging to follow in his footsteps, methodically destroyed all he had built. Those who would stop them were silenced or excommunicated. Had it happened in the corporate world, the CEOs and executives responsible for hijacking a corporation and robbing its investors would have been fired, if not prosecuted in a court of law.Here is the shocking, gripping untold story of the doctrinal hijacking and spiritual destruction of the Worldwide Church of God after the death of its founder. It is the story of a cabal of leaders who destroyed Mr. Armstrongs work, sold the churchs assets and hoarded the money. It is the story of the life-and-death, six-year court battle that ensued when a faith-filled few held fast to his mission and sought to defend his legacy by RAISING THE RUINS.
