On September 20th in Lancaster, PA, I will be speaking at the Zions Hope Ministry Bible prophecy conference (only the land portion). See here for details. For any questions, please direct them to Zions Hope. I will be giving a presentation on answering a recent pretrib objection that has emerged against prewrath eschatology. If you […]
A Reply to Steve Cioccolanti’s Unbiblical Gibberish and a Statistical Explanation of the Numbers ‘1’, ’11’, ‘111’ and ‘1111’
To follow up with an additional point to my response to Prophecy Watchers promoting unbiblical teaching (here). Steve Cioccolanti claims the Bible teaches that the number eleven is “chaos.” Of course, he just pulls this out from—not the Bible—but from thin air, arbitrarily stating: “From the Bible, 11 is the number of chaos. It’s 12 […]
This Is Why PROPHECY WATCHERS Is Distracted and Deceived from Sound Biblical Prophecy (Video)
God help us. The Church is utterly unprepared for the soon-arrival of the Antichrist’s great tribulation, thanks to foolish distractions such as this from Prophecy Watchers.
David Rosenthal on Revelation 6–7 (Prewrath Video)
This is a helpful summary of what prewrath teaches on Revelation 6–7. While I view the fourth seal as the cause of the persecution and resultant martyrdom of the saints depicted in the fifth seal during the Antichrist’s great tribulation, David Rosenthal’s summary articulates a consistent, coherent picture of the progression of events in Revelation […]
Is Prewrath New?
The core teaching of the prewrath position that the church would face the Antichrist before the day of the Lord’s wrath is not new. In fact, every early church father who wrote on this topic believed this. What is new is some of the refinements of eschatology that were articulated by Marvin Rosenthal and Van […]
A Reply to Jeff Durbin’s Mishandling the ‘Left Behind’ Passage
In this video at the time stamp 55:00, preterist Jeff Durbin mishandles the context of the “Left Behind” passage in Jesus’s Olivet Discourse. He claims that it is the righteous who are left behind and the wicked taken to judgment. He has it completely backwards as the context will clearly show. (Incidentally, I don’t suspect […]
Are You a King James Version Only Pretribber? (Image)
About four years ago, I wrote up a blog post (with an image) showing that the translators of the original 1611 King James Bible placed a marginal reference note next to Matthew 24:31 linking to Paul’s rapture and resurrection passages in 1 Thessalonians 4:16 and 1 Corinthian 15:52. Why is this significant? Because most KJV […]
Is an ‘Imminent Rapture’ a Sanctifying Agent?
Answer: First, the Bible never teaches an imminent return of Jesus, let alone that God uses it to sanctify believers. Imminent death, yes, but not an imminent rapture. Second, Jesus in his Olivet Discourse teaches quite the opposite. He teaches that because his return is delayed with intervening events, he warned of the temptation for […]

A Proposed Itinerary of WHERE Jesus Will Be AFTER the Rapture
I have been asked many times concerning the location of Jesus’s activities after the rapture. It is a common question in prewrath discussions. Robert Van Kampen’s The Sign has a helpful explication of this period. To be sure, in the last 30 years since its publication prewrath has refined this topic. Let me comment on […]
