Gary Stearman, please continue to have Billy Crone on your show, because he is producing more ex-pretribbers and thus more prewrathers! Crone’s colossal ignorance in his pretrib safe space is on display in the Prophecy Watchers below. It is truly amazing to watch his really bad argumentation. I am not kidding when I say this […]

Reply to H. Wayne House on the Claim that APOSTASIA Can Mean ‘Spatial Departure’
In my public debate in the cross-examination period with Thomas Ice I honed in on the Greek noun apostastia in 2 Thessalonians 2:3. I finally got him to admit in our cross-examination that he was incapable of producing a single document in all of Koine literature where apostasia means a “spatial departure.” (See the video […]
(VIDEO) A Reply to L. A. Marzulli’s Pretrib ‘Little Green Men’ Interpretation of ἀποστασία in 2 Thessalonians 2:3
Marzulli (and Gary Stearman) is mistaken in the video above to think that apostasia can mean “physical departure.” It never does, which is why he never provides any evidence in the video and instead focuses on talking about “UFOs” and not Scripture. The term apostasia means a political or religious departure in Koine Greek, not […]

Michael is viewed as a celestial restrainer of God’s people in Daniel 10–12, the passage serving as the source for Paul’s exposition in 2 Thessalonians 2:3–8. 3. […]
A Few Bizarre and Ignorant Comments on Prewrath From Compass International Bill Perkins
It is clear that Bill Perkins knows nothing of what prewrath teaches. But that does not stop him from making colossal ignorant assertions about the prewrath position from this article. His statements speak for themselves. For the record, I think the book “The Pre-wrath Rapture of the Church” has caused the Body of Christ a […]

Book Review: The Coming Flood: A Call for the Endurance and Faith of the Saints by Jeremy Wells
James Pate has written a brief book review of Jeremy Wells’ book The Coming Flood: A Call for the Endurance and Faith of the Saints. I have not read this book but intend to. But I wanted to respond very briefly to Wells’ thesis, who seems to come from a post-trib view, so being a […]
