I had technical difficulties at the beginning, but fixed it at 6:38.

Is the Book of Revelation Chronological? Prophecy Roundtable (Video)
This Thursday, I am participating in a prophecy roundtable on the question of the chronology of the book of Revelation and its rapture implications. See the info below.
The Seventh Trumpet Is Blown AFTER the Two Witnesses are Caught Up to Heaven
In this week’s episode of The Biblical Prophecy Program, I pointed out a contradiction in the posttribulation framework. Many posttribulationists view the catching up of the two witnesses to heaven as “representing” the rapture, and they identify the blowing of the seventh trumpet in the book of Revelation as Paul’s “last trump.” The salient problem, […]
Video: The Pretribulation Rapture Is a False Hope
I am not familiar with the host of this program, so I cannot vouch for his other teachings, but in this particular helpful critique of pretribulationism, he covers a lot of ground in this video. It’s worth watching all of it. Related articles: Does the Absence of the Word ‘Church’ (Ekklēsia) in Revelation 4–21 Support […]

Posttribulationists interpret the […]
Apostasia Does NOT Mean ‘Physical Departure’
I am amazed that many pretribulation teachers continue to white-knuckle believe that the Greek noun apostasia in 2 Thessalonians 2:3 refers to the rapture because they claim this Greek noun can mean “physical departure.” The problem is that the noun never means “physical departure” during the Koine Greek period. It means a religious or political […]
My 4 Year Old Son Refuted the Pretrib Imminent Rapture!
Sunday afternoon, my son and I cut down a Balsam Fir in the northwoods of Wisconsin. We are hoping for a White Christmas! The next day we decorated the tree and I set out a few Christmas gifts for him under the tree. Now what happened next was my 4 year old son refuted the […]
A MAJOR Contradiction in the Posttribulation View of the ‘Last Trump’
I Am a Messianic Gentile
Last week I posted a short video of Dr. Mark Saucy talking about Paul’s teaching concerning the remnant of Israel in the book of Romans. One important point that I want to highlight that he made is the following: A lot of folks think that the church is a nation-less entity, where we don’t recognize […]
A Perplexed Pretribulation Theologian on the Sealing of the 144,000
Robert L Thomas’s two volume commentary on the book of Revelation has been the standard pretribulation commentary on Revelation for three decades. On page 472 of his first volume, he makes an admission: Apparent weaknesses in [my own understanding] of the seal include its inability to explain why the sealing did not come before the […]
