Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Resurrected Ones A story of an ancient community of saints who crossed the bridge of death twice... The account you are about to read, is a story of the great providences of God. "Providence" is an interesting word. According to the Oxford University Dictionary, it means "The protective care of God." This is a story that concerns aspects of God's divine resources and of His protective care. Remember, God's resources are limitless, so anything is possible! The Scriptures tell us that there were certain saints who were resurrected from their graves, following the crucifixion of Christ. Is this strange or what? To say the least, this is a very unique and unusual event! There is nothing else like it, anywhere in the Scriptures. No specific explanations are given. The Bible says MANY came forth from their graves and were recognized by their friends when they returned to Jerusalem. What could be the reason many saints were brought forth from their graves? What could be the role and purpose of these special RESURRECTED ONES, in the Kingdom of God? After all, they have been amongst us now for over 2,000 years! There must be a reason why they are here. I have thought about this for some time now. Here is what I have concluded. First, I believe their role has been that of witnesses. "Ye shall be My witnesses." Second, I believe their role has been to provide providential care. Hopefully, this narrative will expand your concepts of the greatness of the divine resources that our gracious Creator uses, to bring about His plans and purposes in this man-made world of chaos and confusion. To say the least, I think your imagination will be challenged as you read the adventures of The Resurrected Ones!
