The adventure continues as The Skull Beyond the Cross: Guardians of the Secrets Book II dives far into the Bible's past to bring even greater life to the Scriptures through real discoveries of the truth behind the meaning of the skull and crossbones. You'll witness ancient biblical events, as documented by early manuscripts, as you travel with Dr. Jim Rankin on this amazing expedition to ancient locations high into a hidden mountain cave to locate the Well of Souls. You'll venture into castles, protected islands, and into ancient historical manuscripts to uncover one of the most guarded biblical secrets concealing the truth, and lost over time. This real-life adventure takes you beyond the propaganda of today, then reveals to you what the early biblical translators knew as truth, and what many of the manuscripts in the Dead Sea Scrolls have disclosed. Dr. Rankin writes, "God is revealing the mysteries He speaks of in His Word more than at any other time in history because of the unbelieving world around us." The Skull Beyond the Cross will bring you closer to the true meaning of Jesus than ever before. Dr. Jim Rankin is an accomplished biblical explorer, pastor, and author of four successful books of discovery, including the best-selling book 'Expedition Ark of the Covenant.' With his incredible expeditions of truth, Rankin has opened the doors to biblical reality, and he has become a popular guest on international Christian television, and has been described by Pastor Bobby Schuller, and others, as "A real-life modern- day Indiana Jones." He's dedicated his life to locating the truths of the Bible, while sharing the gospel around the world. Jim, and his wife Sherri, also enjoy the Florida sunshine, and traveling the U.S. researching American history.
