Left Behind: The Beast Rules the World [Paperback]

Global Community ruler resurrects, demands worship. Carpathia occupies Jerusalem temple—‘rightful throne’. Citizens to receive loyalty mark or death.

The events set in motion by the Rapture take a deeply disturbing turn when satanic Global Community leader Nicolae Carpathia, recently assassinated, returns to life. He erects statues of himself in every city and demands that all people be branded with a permanent loyalty mark. Those who refuse face ghastly execution, and Christ-followers are targeted for obliteration.

Rayford Steele, Buck Williams, and the other Tribulation Force operatives rally their forces to combat this new onslaught. Will the young spy within Global Community headquarters prove trustworthy? Will the Trib Force’s daring escape plan succeed, or will they go down in flames?
