Traditional pretribulationists have consistently believed that the rapture and the inception of the day of the Lord’s wrath will occur back-to-back on the same day. Prewrath came along and pointed out the “Before the day of the Lord” passages (e.g. Joel 2:29–31; Mal 4:5; 2 Thess 2:3) and demonstrated that since the Bible teaches that […]

A Refutation of Bill Salus’s Pretrib ‘Gap’ Theory (Video)
In the last couple of decades prewrath has had such a huge impact on pretribulationism that many pretrib teachers have changed its fundamental timeline. Many pretrib teachers now, including Bill Salus, have jettisoned the traditional view that the rapture occurs the same day that Daniel’s seventieth week begins (i.e. the seven-year period), which they erroneously […]

David Rosenthal on Revelation 6–7 (Prewrath Video)

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 […]
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 […]

Pretribulationism claims that the rapture occurs before Daniel’s 70th week begins, i.e. the seven-year period, while the second coming occurs after the seven years is complete. Thus, it necessarily disconnects the rapture […]
