Marquis Laughlin asks this question in a facebook post: Hey, can anyone give me a biblical answer to the identity of the 24 elders? I’m dealing with the pre-trib “they have to be the church” thing….I am using the obvious evidence in Revelation but that doesn’t seem to be making a dent here…. Marquis, see […]

I announced an upcoming debate on the rapture question between myself representing the prewrath position and Thomas Ice of the Pre-trib Research Center representing the pretrib position. The debate will be held at The Hope Center in Plano Texas, September 25th 2015, a Friday […]

http://traffic.libsyn.com/thebiblicalprophecyprogram/024-Parallels_between_Jesus_and_Paul.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | Download | EmbedI talked about the incredibly consistent teaching between Jesus’ Olivet Discourse and Paul’s Thessalonian letters on the doctrine of the second coming. I listed thirty parallels between Jesus and Paul. The pretribulational rapture position wrongly dichotomizes this teaching between Matthew 24 and 1 and 2 Thessalonians. Their […]

In Part 2, I first addressed his misunderstanding of the structure of Matthew 24 explaining that vv. 9–14 is developed in vv. 15–31. In other words, […]
A Public Debate Challenge for Pretribulationist Dr. Doug Stauffer
Pretrib teacher Dr. Doug Stauffer was recently interviewed on View from the Bunker with host Derek Gilbert. His argumentation was deeply flawed and simply bad. Not to mention that—not surprisingly—he grossly misrepresents the prewrath position. Either Mr. Stauffer has not read primary prewrath literature, is incompetent, or being dishonest. He claims the prewrath position is […]

I responded to the first half of David Reagan’s shallow pretrib “critique” of the prewrath position. I first talked about “the lie.” The Lie is Reagan’s continued falsehood that prewrath teaches the rapture will happen “3/4th” into the “tribulation period.” I […]
Responding to Mr. Reagan’s Horrendous “Critique” of Prewrath on Tomorrow’s Program…
On tomorrow’s The Biblical Prophecy Program, I will be going through point by point David Reagan’s really bad critique (if you can call it that) of the prewrath position. It is worse than I thought. I am convinced he has no interest in being honest and credible in his evaluation of the prewrath position. It […]
Why Dr. David Reagan Refuses to Defend His Pretribulationism Publicly
I have had a standing debate invitation for David Reagan of Lamb & Lion Ministries for several years now. Recently, Reagan wrote a few blog articles critiquing prewrath. They were really bad and shallow. So I issued another challenge to him in the combox of one of his articles. Today, he wrote me via email […]
Greg Laurie DENIES the Imminent Rapture of the Church
http://www.christianpost.com/news/greg-laurie-no-question-these-are-the-end-times-americas-role-as-superpower-will-diminish-as-new-world-order-forms-130582/ Pretrib teachers are notorious for committing a major contradiction in their system. On one side of their mouth they believe in the “any moment” (i.e. imminent) rapture of God’s people, which means, according to their own definition, there cannot be any prophesied events that must occur before the rapture. Then on the other side […]
