I see a lot of posttribs, amillennialists, and historical premillennialists who claim that those who are left behind in Matt 24 are actually the righteous who are delivered, and those who are taken are the wicked for judgment. This is backwards. Those who argue this way typically do not actually support their view from the […]

In my experience this key exegetical point in prewrath eschatology has made sense for many who are ex-pretribbers and ex-posttribbers. It is a point that prewathers should highlight when they talk with their pretrib […]
The ‘Lost Tribes of Israel’ and the 144,000 in Revelation 7:1–8 (Video)
In the 1800s there were theologians who mocked the notion that Israel would one day be gathered and become a nation again. This presupposition of limiting God led to them spiritualizing many Bible prophecy passages in the Bible. These same type of replacement theologians today view the passage of the Israelite 144,000 in Revelation 7:1–8 […]

7 Reasons Why God Gave the Church SIGNS to Watch for Jesus’s Return (Video)

One of these reasons was given by Mark Hitchcock today on Gary Stearman’s Prophecy Watchers program at the timestamp 9:15 below.

Revelation 19 Does NOT Depict the Start of the Second Coming (Video)
As many are aware prewrath eschatology teaches that the second coming (parousia) of Jesus begins—not in Rev 19— but rather between the opening of the sixth and seventh seals in Rev 7 with the rapture and resurrection occurring with the innumerable multitude of believers appearing in heaven out of the period of the great tribulation.

Pretribber pastor Billy Crone was recently on Gary Stearman’s Prophecy Watchers (see video below). Crone was promoting his new book, The Seals: A Panoramic View of the First Half of the Seven Year Tribulation. Hence, I have written a reply to Billy Crone on the seals in the book of Revelation. Being pretribulational Crone was defending […]
