Pretrib talk-show host Derek Gilbert had pretrib Pastor Billy Crone on his show to discuss his pretrib book, ironically titled The Rapture: Don’t Be Deceived. Crone’s book is same old, same old pretrib argumentation. One particular topic he brought up is his allegorical interpretation of the “Jewish Wedding.” And a few minutes later Gilbert and […]
The United Nations and their Anti-Israel Actions on Full Display
On November 8, in a direct attack at the heart of Judaism and the Jewish People, the United Nations General Assembly passed two resolutions that mentioned the “Haram al Sharif” but not its Jewish synonym “the Temple Mount” as one of the “holy places of Jerusalem.” This followed an October 26 resolution by the World […]

Thank you for everyone’s financial support for this fundraising campaign. Publishing a book is not cheap, at […]

The earliest Church document outside of the New Testament—the Didache—establishes this point. The core teaching of prewrath goes back […]
The Elect are Taken in Matt 24:31, NOT the Wicked…
I have never received a meaningful explanation from amillennialists, pretribulationists, and posttribulationists who think that in Jesus’ Noahic analogy the wicked are taken to judgment and the righteous are left. This makes absolutely no sense given that Jesus illustrates the separation event in Matt 24:31. “And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet […]
I am still waiting for a response from those who believe in the “recapitulation-cycles” theory of the book of Revelation
Over two years ago I wrote the article below that defends a consecutive-progressive view of the septets in the book of Revelation. I also demonstrated the internal contradictions of the concurrent-recapitulation framework (i.e. “cycles”). Typically amillennialists, postmillennialists, and post-tribbers hold to this view. I have never received a meaningful response to my argumentation in the […]
The Book of Revelation Is Not Written in Some ‘Code’ Meant to Be ‘De-Coded’
Readers sometimes treat Revelation’s word pictures as a code designed to hide the author’s meaning from all but selected insiders. But the primary function of the imagery is to reveal, not to conceal. Word pictures offer a way of seeing the character of God, the world, and the community of faith. The writer portrays Jesus […]
Some Thoughts on the Final State for Individual and Cosmic Eschatology
I’d like to consider some potential objections to the Christian doctrine of the final state, then consider how to field those objections. Generally stated, are there aspects of the final state that are naturally impossible? There are things that even an omnipotent God can’t naturally do. That doesn’t mean he can’t do them; just that […]
A Reply to Pretrib Pastor Andy Woods Claiming Prewrath Contradicts Itself If “the great tribulation is the greatest time of trouble that the world has ever known” – Ep. 69

http://traffic.libsyn.com/thebiblicalprophecyprogram/A_Reply_to_Andy_Woods_on_a_contradiction.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | Download | EmbedI replied to Andy Woods who thinks the prewrath position contradicts itself. He thinks prewrath believes the great tribulation will be the worse time ever for the world. And yet the Day of the Lord’s wrath with its trumpet and bowl judgments should be worse. He cited […]
DEBATE VIDEO: Pre-Wrath vs Pre-Tribulational Rapture | Bible Prophecy
It’s been over a year now since I debated Thomas Ice. I am glad the debate happened because thousands of people have either listened to the debate audio or watched the video. I have received numerous positive emails since then, including ex-pretribbers who thought I made a better biblical case for the rapture and Antichrist […]
