| pre tribulation rapture: Exposing the Fallacies of the Pre-Tribulation Rapture Billy Broadwater, 2014-06-19 The Pretribulation Rapture theory has had a foothold on many Christians in America for over a hundred years. This teaching is not allowed to be challenged in many Christian circles. Exposing the Fallacies of the Pretribulation Rapture takes the building blocks of this theory and dismantles them one by one in a serious, thought-provoking analogy of this doctrine. - Is the seven year tribulation really a biblical term? - Is the church literally raptured in Revelation chapter 4? - Are there signs that precede the return of Christ? - Is the rapture really an invisible event? - Are Christians exempt from tribulation? - Where did the true roots of the pretribulation rapture come from? - What does the day of the Lord have to do with the rapture? These questions and many more are answered in Exposing the Fallacies of the Pre-Tribulation Rapture. Not only is there a thorough examination of the rapture, but also a detailed account is given of the numerous discrepancies among leading pretribulation teachers over Bible passages on the second coming. Billy Broadwater's in-depth Bible based research for over twenty-years brings home the truth about the rapture. |
| pre tribulation rapture: The Apocalypse Code Hank Hanegraaff, 2010-09-20 Hank Hanegraaff reveals the code to Revelation. Breaking the code of the book of Revelation has become an international obsession. The result, according to Hank Hanegraaff, has been rampant misreading of Scripture, bad theology, and even bad politics and foreign policy. Hanegraaff argues that the key to understanding the last book of the Bible is the other sixty-five books of the Bible — not current events or recent history and certainly not any complicated charts. The Apocalypse Code offers sane answers to some very controversial questions: What does it mean to take the book of Revelation (and the rest of the Bible) literally? Who are the “Antichrist” and the “Great Whore of Babylon,” and what is the real meaning of “666”? How does our view of the end times change the way we think about the crisis in the Middle East? Are two-thirds of all Jews really headed for an apocalyptic holocaust? The Apocalypse Code is a call to understand what the Bible really says about the end times and why how we understand it matters so much in today’s world. “Provocative and passionate, this fascinating book is a must-read for everyone who’s interested in end-times controversies.” — Lee Strobel, Author, The Case for the Real Jesus “ This book is a withering and unrelenting critique of the positions of apocalyptic enthusiasts — Tim LaHaye. Every fan of the Left Behind series should read this book. The fog will clear, and common sense will return to our reading of the Bible.” — Gary M. Burge, Professor of New Testament, Wheaton College and Graduate School. |

| pre tribulation rapture: Not Afraid of the Antichrist Michael L. Brown, Craig S. Keener, 2019-03-19 Despite the popular theology of our day, Christians should not expect to get out of experiencing the tribulation or the end times. Nowhere in the Bible does the Lord promise us this, say Michael Brown and Craig Keener, two leading, acclaimed Bible scholars. In fact, they say, Jesus promises us tribulation in this world. Yet this is no reason to fear. In this fascinating, accessible, and personal book, Brown and Keener walk you through what the Bible really says about the rapture, the tribulation, and the end times. What they find will leave you full of hope. God's wrath is not poured out on His people, and He will shield us from it--as he shielded Israel in Egypt during the ten plagues. So instead of taking comfort in what God hasn't promised, take comfort in the words of Jesus: He has overcome the world, and we live in his victory. |
| pre tribulation rapture: Evidence for the Rapture John Hart, 2015-07-24 Is the rapture still going to happen? And if so, when? With contributing scholars from schools like Moody Bible Institute, Dallas Theological Seminary, and The Master’s Theological Seminary, Evidence for the Rapture is a convincing and thoroughly biblical case for the rapture. This collection of exegetical essays looks at the rapture from a number of biblical angles: the words of Jesus in the Gospels, Paul’s teachings in the epistles, and even prophetic and apocalyptic literature. In sound exegetical technique, the authors corroborate Scripture’s main teachings on the end times to provide a trustworthy and concise treatment of a multi-faceted issue. For the last several hundred years, the doctrine of a pretribulation rapture has been a fixture in many churches and institutions. Evidence for the Rapture is a fresh polish upon this long-standing doctrine. |
| pre tribulation rapture: All Left Behind Nicholas FISHER, 2018-11-04 Will some people be left behind when the prophesied rapture occurs? Are Christians going to escape the final, prophesied years of upheaval on the earth? Will believers be watching the events of the tribulation from heaven? Many evangelical Christians are convinced that these things are so. Author Nicholas Fisher, an evangelical Christian, is committed to fundamental doctrines such as salvation by faith, the divinity of Jesus Christ, Christ's bodily resurrection from the dead and his future Millennial reign, and a future for the nation of Israel as well as the Church universal. Nicholas was a convinced and ardent supporter and defender of the pre-tribulation rapture for twenty-eight years. In more recent years, he has re-examined the relevant scriptures in meticulous detail. In his reappraisal, he found the politically-correct understanding of the rapture in the evangelical world to be seriously wanting. This book critiques the common evangelical understanding of the timing of the rapture in relation to other future events prophesied in the Bible. ALL LEFT BEHIND is not an attack on any individual, denomination, ministry, or popular proponent of pre-tribulation thought: it's the product of many years of soul-searching, combined with an ardent desire to know what the Bible really does say about this subject. Caution: the resulting findings and conclusions may be rather challenging! |

Walvoord's classic work on the Rapture! The Rapture Question examines the four views of the church's role in the tribulation: Partial Rapturism, Pretribulationism, Midtribulationism, and Posttribulationism, with the revised edition particularly discussing the current debate between pretribulationism and posttribulationism.

| pre tribulation rapture: The Rapture Exposed Barbara R. Rossing, 2007-03-30 The idea of The Rapture -- the return of Christ to rescue and deliver Christians off the earth -- is an extremely popular interpretation of the Bible's Book of Revelation and a jumping-off point for the best-selling Left Behind series of books. This interpretation, based on a psychology of fear and destruction, guides the daily acts of thousands if not millions of people worldwide. In The Rapture Exposed, Barbara Rossing argues that this script for the world's future is nothing more than a disingenuous distortion of the Bible. The truth, Rossing argues, is that Revelation offers a vision of God's healing love for the world. The Rapture Exposed reclaims Christianity from fundamentalists' destructive reading of the biblical story and back into God's beloved community. |

| pre tribulation rapture: Next Door Savior Max Lucado, 2012-12-31 We applaud men for doing good things. We enshrine God for doing great things. But what about a man who does God things? One thing is certain. We can't ignore him. If these moments are factual, if the claim of Christ is actual, then he was, at once, man and God. The single most significant person who ever lived. Forget MVP. He is the entire league. The head of the parade? Hardly. No one else shares the street. Who comes close? Humanity's best and brightest fade like dime-store rubies next to him. Dismiss him? We can't. Resist him? Equally difficult. Why would we want to? Don't we need a God-man Savior? A just-God Jesus could make us, but not understand us. A just-man Jesus could love us, but never save us. But a God-man Jesus? Near enough to touch. Strong enough to trust. A next door Savior. |
| pre tribulation rapture: 3 Raptures Michael Flipp, 2020-04-21 Do you believe in the Rapture? If you do, you are probably most likely a Pre Trib or Post Trib believer. The Great Tribulation period is during a time of God's Wrath on the world and after this period, Jesus comes back to rule for 1000 years with some of His Saints. For all of my Christian walk with God, I was a Post Trib believer. But God gave me a dream that shook me to my core, and since then, I have been studying the Book of Revelation. God revealed some things to me that I had been praying for; understanding of His Raptures and His return. And what I have learned shocked me! I was shown something that I have never been taught before nor had I even ever heard preached by anyone. And what that was is that not only was their indeed going to be a Post tribulation Rapture, but a Pre Tribulation one and a Post Milennial one as well! 3 Raptures! I was astonished, I was like, what? But it is the only thing that makes sense to reconcile the scriptures so that they all flow in unison. I bring up a case by case narrative with proofs for the 3 Raptures and I think you will agree that if this teaching had been around years ago, Christians would not have been divided over this issue for all of these past years. For some reason God is choosing to reveal this rapture teaching more clearly than has been done in the past, but I am sure that others have taught it before, it just has never become popular into the mainstream. My hope is that this teaching will bring believers together, to bring the lost to Christ and to bring Glory to God. In these end times, may His Truth prevail and never be overcome. In Jesus name, Amen. |

| pre tribulation rapture: 101 Answers to Questions About the Book of Revelation Mark Hitchcock, 2012-11-01 Who are the 144,000 in Revelation 7:1-8?

| pre tribulation rapture: BIBLICAL EVIDENCE OF A PRE-TRIBULATION RAPTURE Stephen Nielsen, 2017-10-25 Many regard the idea of a pre-Tribulation rapture as an escape for cowardly Christians who wish to escape not only the coming Tribulation but the present trials and responsibilities of life. This book will help to dispel that idea as the reader will see clear, biblical evidence of a pre-Tribulation rapture. This evidence is God's design to bring us comfort and encouragement in these last days. This study, in four parts, thoroughly investigates the subject of the rapture. Part one lays out the groundwork for the rapture, in which we focus mainly on a study of Daniel 9. Part two is a short study of the kingdom of God, so the reader can better see the significance of the rapture. In part three we inspect each reference to His coming and show whether it refers to the rapture or to His glorious appearing. In the last section our scope of study is narrowed to showing why the rapture must come before the Tribulation. I highly recommend this book to you if you have any doubts about the rapture. |
| pre tribulation rapture: Echoing Hope Kurt Willems, 2021-03-16 Where is Jesus when we need him most? An influential pastor shares how despair can lead us to discover true hope and a deeper relationship with God, helping us emerge stronger and more joyful from times of crisis. “May this careful look at pain in the context of Jesus’s life open up avenues of discovery and healing.”—Mindy Caliguire, cofounder and president of Soul Care We all experience difficulties and hardships. But how can we learn to live richly in the midst of them? And even grow spiritually because of them? The answer is found in the hopeful humanity of Jesus. As the Son of God, Jesus wasn’t exempt from suffering, disappointment, or injustice. He lived in the real world as a real person. He wept for those he loved. He felt hunger and thirst. He endured temptation, betrayal, and ridicule. He died after being unjustly tortured. And somehow through it all, he embodied hope—by defeating death and opening a new world of life for us. In Echoing Hope, influential pastor and blogger Kurt Willems reveals how understanding the humanity of Jesus can radically transform our identity and empower us to step into our pain-filled world in a new way. Combining rich theological insight with personal stories and practices for response, he shows how we can overcome despair and encounter the beautiful potential of our lives. |

| pre tribulation rapture: Prewrath Alan E. Kurschner, 2014-06-24 Many of us have been told that we will be raptured out of here before the Antichrist arrives. But what if this is wrong? Is this really what the Bible teaches? Prewrath: A Very Short Introduction to the Great Tribulation, Rapture, and Day of the Lord is a shortened edition to Alan Kurschner's book Antichrist Before the Day of the Lord: What Every Christian Needs to Know about the Return of Christ. In this book, Kurschner traces the key topics and passages, providing compelling biblical evidence that the church will first encounter the Antichrist's great tribulation before Christ returns to rapture his people and judge the world. Jesus warns us, Remember, I have told you ahead of time (Matt. 24:25). And Paul cautions us, Let no one in any way deceive you, for that day will not arrive until the apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness [Antichrist] is revealed, the son of destruction (2 Thess. 2:3). Since Jesus and Paul ominously warn us ahead of time, should this not be an urgent message the church needs to hear? Are we spiritually preparing our hearts to be overcomers for what may soon come to pass? Some topics in the book include: Antichrist's Great Tribulation, Jesus' Olivet Discourse, Beginning of Birth Pangs, The Apostasy and Revelation of the Antichrist, The Seven Seals, The Rapture of God's People, Celestial Disturbance Event, Sixth Seal Signals Impending Wrath, The Shekinah Sign, Gather His Elect, Four Reasons the Rapture Is in Matthew 24:31, The Day of the Lord that Jesus Knew, Jesus on Back-to-Back Rapture and Wrath, Seventh Seal Pronounces Wrath, Parallels between Jesus and Paul, Proposed Structure to the Book of Revelation, Expectancy Not Imminency. |

| pre tribulation rapture: The Pre-Trib Rapture Marlin J. Yoder, 2013-09 At the age of twenty-seven, John Nelson Darby had a dream that allegedly showed him that Christ would rapture His saints before the tribulation. Since 1827 the notion of a pre-tribulation rapture has gained a massive following in the Western church. However, this belief strongly disagrees with the teachings of Christ, who clearly said He gathers His elect saints immediately after the tribulation. Taught for generations now, the pre-tribulation rapture belief has led to widespread unpreparedness for the time of the seven-year tribulation. However, using Christ's teachings, this inspirational new book will ensure that readers will understand the importance of preparation by showing them the truth about the times of the end. This enlightening new book teaches Christians that the time to prepare for the times of the end has come. Stressing the importance of being prepared as Christ commanded, the book shows Christians what the future holds. Highlighting Christ's teaching of the Antichrist and his tribulation, this book shows readers that God has a path of safety and provision for watching and prepared saints at the middle of the tribulation. Setting forth the challenge to believe the teachings of Christ and His Holy Spirit regarding His return for saints, this illuminating book strives to show readers the truth regarding the historical character of God. Building upon contextual truths of Christ's teachings, Marlin J. Yoder's work will help readers reject the doctrines and false dreams of men. |
| pre tribulation rapture: The Pretribulation Rapture Theory and Dispensationalism Revisited J. Mike Byrd, 2014-08-15 The Pretribulation Rapture Theory and Dispensationalism Revisited reviews and critiques a confusing array of popular theories that address the return of Jesus Christ and the churchs rapture. It proposes that a clarifying approach rests in letting Scripture interpret Scripture, which yields a simpler, more natural, and consistent explanation of the pretribulation rapture and dispensationalism. Drawing upon thousands of hours of Bible study, J. Mike Byrd presents an analysis and a related proposal that avoid both unthinking conformity to popular notions and oversimplification for the sake of palatability. The Pretribulation Rapture Theory and Dispensationalism Revisited addresses methods of interpretation, defines dispensationalism and the Dispensational Principle, examines the scriptural testimony surrounding the day of the Lord and the day of Gods wrath, surveys the issues regarding imminence, and discusses the rapture, the resurrection, and Christs second coming. If you wonder what Scripture clearly teaches about the this worlds demise, the end of human existence, and the onset of Gods sure and certain work to establish his reign, then The Pretribulation Rapture Theory and Dispensationalism Revisited should offer you the scripturally grounded review, analysis, and explanation you need to understand the Scriptures teachings on these ultimate issues. |
| pre tribulation rapture: Rapture: Case Closed? Nelson Walters, 2017-08-31 Since the beginning of Christianity, believers have struggled with one of the most distressing questions of faith: Will the church face the Antichrist? This is perhaps the most complete book to date on the subject of the Rapture. It examines each of the popular tribulation theories in detail and presents astonishing new biblical insights that appear to identify the point at which the Rapture occurs. Through 147 specific and stunning scriptural proofs (dozens never-before-published), Nelson Walters comprehensively builds a case that reveals the nature and timing of the Rapture. In September, 2017, 1000 copies of Rapture: Case Closed? were sent to the top leaders of the English speaking church. As a ground-breaking and comprehensive book, it is the perfect vehicle to encourage discussion and debate within the church. And, perhaps most importantly, it provides the faithful with the information they will need to prepare for the most fundamentally challenging period in human history: The Tribulation. |

| pre tribulation rapture: Post Tribulation Rapture Roy W. Anderberg, 2008-04 Every person on Earth will one day stand before God and give an account of what they have done, whether it be good or evil, in addition to their acceptance or rejection of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, as their personal Saviour. Whether or not you believe it, Jesus Christ is coming back again to judge the world for their iniquity. That's what God's prophets have saidand His prophets have never been wrong! From a pre-millennial viewpoint, Post Tribulation Rapture evaluates the three major positions regarding the timing of the return of Jesus Christ to Earth in relation to the final seven years of man's history. Will there be signs of Christ's coming? Will everyone see Him coming? Does Christ return two more times? What is the Day of the Lord? Who are the elect people on Earth? When will the Antichrist be revealed? Is the return of Christ imminent? Who will populate the kingdom? What are the three main rapture positions? How do they differ? Who is the restrainer? Post Tribulation Rapture includes fourteen detailed charts and an extensive glossary/dictionary defining the most commonly used phrases and terms in Bible prophecy. |
| pre tribulation rapture: The Rapture: A Pre- or Post-Tribulation Event? Colleen Wandmacher, 2017-03-17 God tells us not to be deceived about the timing of our being caught up to meet Jesus in the air, an event Christians refer to as the rapture. He would not have said that unless there was going to be an avalanche of false teaching with regard to the timing of the rapture in the sequence of end-time events. Diligently studying pertinent scriptures in God’s Word is the only way one can be free of deception and be spiritually prepared for the times that may befall us. This book helps the reader to deeply study the Word of God to see the truth. Chapter after chapter leads to the same conclusion—the rapture will be a post-tribulation event. |
| pre tribulation rapture: Escape the Coming Antichrist Lou Comunale, 2018-03-13 Escape the Coming Antichrist -- When the Pre-Tribulation Rapture Fails (and it will!) The Left Behind book and movie series has given Christians a false hope about escaping the Antichrist and the tumultuous Great Tribulation just ahead of us. This erroneous teaching has caused many Christians to believe in a pre-tribulation rapture that will not come to pass. Many will be disillusioned and fall away at that time. However, there is a biblical way of escape that offers real hope, but it's not the pre-tribulation rapture! This book also removes the guesswork about much end-time speculation by providing biblical answers to the following: * What is the one question pre-tribbers can't answer? * How can you positively identify the Antichrist when he comes? * What is the only sign that signals the Last Seven Years before Christ's return? * Is Mystery Babylon America? Rome? Mecca? Or Jerusalem? * Why has the Church embraced the flawed pre-tribulation rapture theory? * Is the Antichrist a Gay Muslim, a Jew, or what? * Does Walid Shoebat's assertion that 666 is actually an Arabic phrase have any validity? * What hope do we have that Jesus Christ will protect any Christian during the Great Tribulation? The answers to these and many other questions are given here with a penetrating, no-nonsense biblical clarity. With this book, you are called to share difficult truths that many will reject but His remnant will embrace. Excited to see you step into what God has ordained for you. -- Cristina Cain, Prophetic minister, author of You Can Hear God |
| pre tribulation rapture: Why I Believe in a Pre-Tribulation Rapture Paul McCarty, 2018-02-21 Are you confused about end time events? Are you concerned about what the future holds? Are you tired of ministries that use Bible prophecy as a money making scheme instead of simply proclaiming the truth of God's Word? If you could purchase just one book that has never missed on predicting a future event would you buy it? Approximately 30% of the Bible is unfulfilled prophecy - future events that are going to come to pass just as they are predicted. Every single prophecy about the first coming of the LORD Jesus Christ was fulfilled literally - therefore why do we doubt that the prophecies concerning His second coming will also be fulfilled literally? In this non-copyrighted book you have twelve riveting chapters, quoting hundreds of Bible verses about the soon rapture of the church age saints and the tribulation events that follow on the earth. The contents of this book involved over a decade of research along with much prayer for the leadership of the Holy Spirit. One particular author or teacher was not blindly followed when writing this book, but everything was weighed with the Holy Scriptures and this book even goes against the main-stream interpretation at times.It is said that the LORD Jesus Christ literally fulfilled 108 specific prophecies with His first coming over 2000 years ago. The chances of just one man fulfilling only eight of these prophecies is astronomical-one in ten to the 21st power. The Bible is the future already written, but most people dismiss it or use allegory/symbolism to explain away its clear teachings.If you want to learn more about the truth of the rapture and related future events, I encourage you to purchase this book. It is a quick read at exactly 110 full length pages in the paperback version, but has much scripture and links that provide a treasure chest of information wealth. It will motivate you to read the Bible for yourself and have confidence in Thus Saith the LORD. See the short excerpt below: Revelation allows the careful student to take prophecies from both the Old and New Testament and place them on a timeline. This timeline is initially established in the book of Daniel with two specific landmarks. These landmarks are the beginning of the 7 year Tribulation Period as marked by the signing of the 7 year peace treaty between the Antichrist and the nation of Israel (Daniel 9:27), and the breaking of the peace treaty halfway through the 7 year Tribulation Period, when the Antichrist (the Beast) commits the desecration of the Temple at Jerusalem in the Abomination of Desolation (Daniel 7:25, 9:27, 11:31-32, 12:7, 12:10-12 and Matthew 24:15). With these two landmarks in mind, the book of Revelation puts the pieces of the Tribulation Period puzzle together for the serious student of prophecy. The third landmark is... |
