More than 2,000 years ago, Jesus Christ lived an extraordinary and controversial life, and was ultimately killed for the message He brought. And although most professing Christians would say they believe the record of His ministry, crucifixion and His resurrection, when many picture Christ they envision a dead Jesus.
Some believe He is coming again, and are awaiting His return. Among them are those expecting a secret rapture to occur, an event in which Christ will “sweep up” all true Christians to heaven just before calamity strikes the Earth.
