Rapidshare the bible experience

Rosenthal was raised in Philadelphia and converted to Christianity after his mother, who ran a candy store, started reading the New Testament. He saw her life transformed and wanted what she had. After graduating from Philadelphia College of the Bible—now Cairn University—Rosenthal was ordained as a Baptist and started an independent ministry focused on end times theology and the need for Jews to accept Jesus.

The acre park was building on a tradition of Holy Land recreations, according to Bielo. They come from a variety of Christian perspectives, with some more evangelistic and others more educational. Other locations followed, from New Jersey to Arkansas to California, and there was something of a boom of Holy Land miniatures and roadside attractions with the expansion of car culture and summer road trips in the midth century.

The Holy Land Experience was the first opened in the 21st century. Rosenthal, however, said the experience would take visitors out of time. The grand opening received national publicity—some generated by Jewish activists who said the Holy Land Experience was designed to covert Jews. Rubin was arrested, a short time later, on charges that he conspired to bomb a mosque in California and the office of US Congressman Darrell Issa. Rubin died by suicide in while awaiting trial in a Los Angeles prison.

The struggle continued in the courts until when then-Governor Jeb Bush signed a law that carved out an exemption for theme parks that displayed biblical manuscripts and waived admission at least one day a year.

Despite the tax break, however, and about a quarter of a million annual visitors, the Holy Land Experience could not break even. It just cost more to run than Rosenthal calculated. They planned to use it as a studio and a set for new television productions, promote the tourist attraction at little cost to Christians who watched TBN, and cut expenses to make the park financially sustainable. In the first year, they laid off about a quarter of the staff and outsourced some of the more expensive maintenance, including cleaning and landscaping.

They increased the number of visitors by about 25 percent, freshened up some of the attractions, and added new ones. Visitors could now get their picture taken so it looked like they were walking on water with an actor portraying Jesus. And they could play putt-putt around Bible-story dioramas at the mini golf course dubbed Trin-i-tee.

Financially, however, the Holy Land Experience still required lots and lots of cash. At the same time, ticket sales started falling. From a height of about , visitors, it dropped to , paying adults in and then just continued to decline. Attendance was down by about 50 percent before COVID, and then the park was shut down by the pandemic.

Pinsky, former reporter for the Orlando Sentinel. After 20 years of trying, the Holy Land Experience could not stop losing money. The Bible Experience is exactly what its title indicates, an experience. I've listened to many audio Bibles over the years, but none have achieved what The Bible Experience has, which is to bring the Bible to life in a very real, compelling, accessible and experiential way.
