Postribulationists argue that after God’s people are caught up to the clouds to meet Christ in the rapture, they will immediately “escort” Christ back to earth, i.e., they are not taken to heaven before the throne of God. Their main argument they use is the term apantēsis (meeting) in 1 Thessalonians 4:17 requires this “immediate […]

Will There Be Degrees of Rewards in the Kingdom of Heaven?
Craig L. Blomberg argues in his article: I do not believe there is a single NT text that, when correctly interpreted, supports the notion that believers will be distinguished one from another for all eternity on the basis of their works as Christians. What is more, I am convinced that when this unfounded doctrine of […]
A Norris Update: He Gives a Non-Response Response
“I only have this to say about Alan Kurschn [sic] and his blogging about me: LOL.” —Wesley Norris There you go folks, I did not expect a meaningful biblical response to my articles on Wesley Norris’ pretribulational theology. For the record his response has been basically name calling: heresy, blaspheming, apostate, and flippantly laughing (“LOL”). […]
The Seventh Bowl Judgment
(17) Finally the seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air and a loud voice came out of the temple from the throne, saying: “It is done!” (18) Then there were flashes of lightning, roaring, and crashes of thunder, and there was a tremendous earthquake—an earthquake unequaled since humanity has been on the earth, […]
“The pre-wrath movement is apostate” —Wesley Norris
I am calling on Wesley Norris to publicly repent of his egregious slander against his prewrath brothers and sisters in Christ. If anyone knows where Norris attends church, please let me know. His elders need to be informed of his slander he is propagating on the Internet, so they can restrain him from continuing to […]
Wesley Norris Doubles Down On His Perversion of God’s Purposes
Norris: [W]hat kind of glory would it bring the Father to physically persecute His Son’s bride before His Son is married to her? I don’t know about you, but I think that is a sick and twisted concept. Yet this is what the pre-wrath crowd is wanting the Church to believe. (Source here). Wesley Norris […]
Israel, an Economic Superpower?
Those who have objected that the eschatological Israel (or Jerusalem) cannot be the Babylonian Harlot have often done so because Israel is not an economic super power, a qualification given in the book of Revelation. But that objection may no longer hold water, or should I say oil? Israel’s Oil Weapon. Seemingly out of nowhere, […]
Some Things Just Speak For Themselves…
Wesley Norris: [It is] blasphemous to put the revealing of Antichrist before Jesus and the Church. The apostle Paul: Now regarding the arrival of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to be with him… For [the day of the Lord] will not arrive until the rebellion comes and the man of lawlessness is […]
Antichrist and Alka-Seltzer™ for Wesley
Eschatology matters, folks, as the following prerib rant demonstrates from a Wesley Norris who essentially calls Jesus and Paul’s warnings to the church blasphemous. If you can’t argue against it biblically, try calling it blasphemous! (I don’t mean to minimize Wesley’s slanderous accusation against God’s Word). See also Ryan Habbena’s response in the link (source […]
A Note on Daniel 9:27 and Antichrist’s Covenant-Making (Gābar)
He [Antichrist] will confirm [gābar] a covenant with many for one week [i.e., seven years]. But in the middle of that week he will bring sacrifices and offerings to a halt. On the wing of abominations will come one who destroys, until the decreed end is poured out on the one who destroys. (Dan 9:27, […]
