Have you ever wondered why the rapture as it is described on television, in books, in movies, and even from the pulpit, does not seem to match what you read in the Bible? Or why the teaching that Christians will be whisked to heaven without facing any of the persecution and testing of the "Tribulation" period does not seem to match the character of God as revealed in the scriptures? There is a reason. It doesn't. The timing of the rapture clearly, repeatedly, and consistently taught in scripture is that Jesus will return to rapture the Church after the rise of the Antichrist, after the start of the "Tribulation" period, but before His wrath, not pretribulationally as many teach. The implications for believers, both in their lifestyles and their individual relationships with God, are critical. This book, written for believers at all levels of education and spiritual growth, takes a look at the classic prewrath timing and the volume of scriptures that support this important doctrine for the rapidly approaching End Times.
