Survivors (novel)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Survivors is a book by Dave McKay under the pseudonym Zion Ben-Jonah. Distributors are found mainly on busy high streets in city centres. A donation is required to pay towards the printing and binding costs, otherwise, the book is free of charge. A digital copy may be found on the organization's website.
The novel was written as a response to the Left Behind series, and corrected what were perceived as errors in these books. Many of the characters closely parallel the characters in the Left Behind series. The main difference between the two is that in Survivors, the rapture (or spiriting away of all of God's faithful believers) comes after the great trials and plagues on Earth, which some believe is what the Bible actually prophesises.
The response to the 'cult' group have resulted in some very nasty brush-offs with the law and media.
Each chapter is followed by commentary relating the events of the chapter to prophecies in the Bible.
