It is a deep-seated assumption among many pretrib and posttrib interpreters that the Second Coming begins with the battle of Armageddon. For example, they identify Matt 24:30–31 as the same setting as Rev 19:11–21. But this is not correct. Three events associated with the Second Coming will occur before the battle of Armageddon: (1) the […]

Come with His Saints’ While posttribulationism wrongly believes that the rapture and the second coming denote the same event, pretribulationism commits the opposite error by separating the events. Pretribulationism claims that the rapture occurs before Daniel’s seventieth week begins, i.e. the seven-year period, while the second coming occurs […]
