The point below made by Steve Hays can also be said of believers in the church who do not have a solid biblical foundation in eschatology and thus will be unprepared when the Antichrist’s great tribulation arrives. https://triablogue.blogspot.com/2018/09/i-stopped-believing-in-god-after.html I don’t know if this is worth commenting on, but it’s getting lots of buzz: www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-nE-zrIhKc A […]

So for example, they would say that the great tribulation was not fulfilled in the first century, nor is it to […]

In this episode I explained why Joel 2:30-31 is the simplest and most effective way to teach prewrath. I consider it an anchor passage, or an “interpretive key,” as it helps […]

Now when they are saying, ‘There is peace and security,’ then sudden destruction comes on them, like labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will surely not escape. But you, brothers and sisters, […]
The Pope Is Wrong, God DOES Decree Trials, Temptations, and Tests for Our Good, and Its Relevance for the Coming Antichrist…
Recently the Pope has thought that he possesses the authority to change Jesus’ words and intention with one of the petitions in the Lord’s prayer, which I am sure most of you have heard about by now (“And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one” Matt 6:13). This issue […]

Only “saints” that are pretribulationally raptured before the seven-year period will be exempt from God’s wrath! Those “tribulational saints” who “grew up in […]
THE ESCAPE
“But stay alert at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that must happen, and to stand before the Son of Man.” (Luke 21:36 NET) Frequently I come across pretrib literature that argues that “escape” in Luke 21:36 is teaching a pretribulational rapture. The articles are typically surface level, […]
