Prewrath
Berean Pastors Embrace Prewrath (Video)
The following is a series by the pastoral staff who were Berean and changed their view that prewrath and not pretribulationism represented the biblical view on the second coming. I appreciate their humility and Berean spirit. One of the main prewrath resources that were instrumental in the reexamination of their pretrib view and acceptance of […]

Remember THIS When Interpreting the Early Church Fathers on Their Eschatology
One thing we need to be careful about remembering when we interpret the early church writers: they were supersessionistic (i.e. they believed in replacement theology). One relevant example is that the early church fathers often interpreted Daniel’s references to “the holy people” not as national Israel but as the church (or a mixture of the […]
ZERO Evidence that the ‘Apostasy’ in 2 Thessalonians 2:3 Refers to the Rapture (Video)
After ten years of demonstrating the pretrib interpretation that the term “apostasy” in 2 Thessalonians 2:3 does not refer to the rapture, I have had zero pretrib responses to my exegesis. This is very telling, but demonstrates that there is zero evidence for their interpretation. It is a desperate attempt, with all due respect, to […]

A Case for the Prewrath Rapture View (Video)
What Does the Pretrib Have To Lose?
If prewrath is wrong and the church is raptured before the Antichrist, then pretribs lose nothing. If pretrib is wrong and the church faces the Antichrist, then pretribs can lose everything, because many will believe they have missed the rapture and consequently become vulnerable to apostatize from the false teachings and persecutions from the Antichrist. […]
Should Pretrib Churches Have “Imminence” Statements in Their Statement of Faiths?
Many pretribulational churches place an “any moment rapture” affirmation in their statement of faith. Typically it is found in the last statement under “Jesus’s Return” where after stating that they believe in the “personal, physical, visible return of Jesus,” an imminence statement is added. This is problematic for several reasons: i. There are no statements […]
The Complete VIDEO INTERVIEW Is Ready to Be Viewed
One thing that the interviewer said at the beginning of the show that I appreciated was he noticed from reading my new book that there were new arguments against pretribulationism that he had never seen before. Exactly. Going deep to the very foundations of pretribulationism resulted in new argumentation. In addition, I was able to […]
