We have new subscribers here everyday who are new to the issues. How does prewrath compare to other positions? The following was a written debate that I participated in back a while ago. It should be helpful for newcomers: Three Views of the Rapture – Pre-Tribulationism (Michael Svigel), Pre-Wrath (Alan Kurschner), and Post-Tribulationism (Craig Blomberg) […]
Posttribulationism
BIAS ALERT: This person makes a GREAT point about The John Ankerberg Show | Prewrath Rapture
The John Ankerberg Show has been known for having different perspectives represented by different proponents on a topic. However, when it comes to one particular topic, the rapture, Ankerberg will only have pretrib guests on this show. Can anyone say…painfully biased? He does not have a prewrather, posttribber, or a preterist on his show. He […]
Shameful Pretrib Billy Crone Lies by Saying Prewrath Promotes Anti-Semitism
Billy Crone continues to misrepresent and lie about the prewrath position. He has been challenged to defend his views and statements publically in a debate, but refuses to do so. He knows he cannot do it. I explain below why pretribs are having these desperate and ungodly reactions to prewrath. Now Crone has taken his […]

There are at least three common questions that arise when people study the parable of the Wheat and the Weeds in Matthew 13. The first question is whether we are […]

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 […]

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 […]

Paul’s Thessalonian epistles are typically ignored by pastors and other Christians because, in my opinion, of its direct teaching that contradicts the interpreters’ eschatology. I first discussed his first epistle to the Thessalonians and its message of the return of Jesus and […]

Today I described four views that militate against this readiness. 1. Pretribulationism: The warnings are relegated to “tribulation saints.” We will be raptured out of here so we do not […]

Here are the reasons I believe this to be the case.
