Jakob's Trouble Karl F Thoma

Jakob Nelson is alone on a wilderness survival trip when the rapture of the church takes place. He returns to civilization to find his oldest brother John has been taken, while his other brother Justin has also been left behind. In a search for answers, Jakob sets off on a journey with Ian, a newfound friend who leads him to the Lord. At the same time, an evil force is rising in Europe. Nikola Lukanov has come to power, and he claims the rapture was nothing more than a mass alien abduction. Justin takes up Lukanov's cause, and Jakob now finds himself on the run. In an effort to hide from Justin, he travels with Ian to Jerusalem, where they encounter the Biblical two witnesses. Jakob spends the next forty two months under the protection and guidance of the witnesses, as they preach about the plagues in Revelation despite Lukanov's efforts. Jakob's Trouble: The Two Witnesses follows the story of Revelation, just as the 'man of sin' ascends to power and the numerous plagues descend upon the Earth. It also follows young Jakob, as he grows in faith and strength under the guidance of the two witnesses. It is a book about the end times, but it also shines through with the radiance of eternal hope-because even in darkness, there is light.
