Above we see Jerry McLamb with the ad he placed in the Fayetteville,
NC paper after the Rapture failed to occur Sept. 11,12, and 13, 1988.
Edgar Wisenant was an accountant who worked for the Government Space
program before he wrote the little booklet "88 Reasons Why the Rapture
will occur in 1988".
A dedicated Pentacostal who spoke in the "unknown tongues",
and spent a lot of time in church and praying, Edgar had no doubt that what
he had been hearing from such popular Pentecostal and Evangelical preachers
and writers as Hal Lindsay and JR Church was an absolute certainty
to occur as they were predicting! |
