Download or read book Secret Rapture An Anti Biblical Assumption written by Suresh Malayil and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2020-07-22 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christ himself warns us to not to believe a secret rapture. Rapture will happen only after Israel becomes a Christian nation. Two olive trees and two lampstands, representatives of the church during tribulation. The church knows the times of his coming back. It’s not anti-Christ being withheld. Noah and Lot’s days, an evidence for public coming. The Day of the Lord will come as a thief even after the so-called secret rapture. Resurrection of the people of God and the end of the world will happen on the same day. The Second Advent accompanied by loud command, the voice, and the trumpet of God, and resurrection occurs at the same moment is a solid prove for the public coming. For the church, rapture day is not an immediate surprising day. Meaning of nobody knows the day or the hour. Meaning of the idiom of carcass and the vultures. The Day of the Lord is the day Paul awaits for the crown of righteousness. An immediate cosmic change occurs at the rapture. Rapture will be a visual event. Rapture will happen on the last day of human history. The second raw resurrection happens at the end of the tribulation. Our gathering unto him in the air will happen only after the man of lawlessness appear. The wedding of the Lamb occurs after tribulation. Surprising invitees. The earth, venue for the marriage supper of the Lamb - Such truths are being discussed in this book.

Download or read book The Deceit Of Secret Rapture Theory written by Zélio Cabral and published by Clube de Autores. This book was released on 2016-05-30 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adherents of the Pre-trib claim that God will not allow the Church suffers in the period known as the Great Tribulation. But does God s Word really teaches that there will be a secret rapture seven years before the Great Tribulation? For Jesus clearly states in Matthew 24:31 and the apostle Paul in 1 Thessalonians 4.16-17 confirms that there is nothing secret and silent in his second coming. Another incongruity of this view is the idea of a rapture to take the Church and the Holy Spirit before the earth before the Antichrist manifestation. If this were the case, the Antichrist would be anti what? A reductionism of the mission of the Church and of the Holy Spirit, and to promote escapism and alienation hurts the good sense. Christians of the generation of Christ s return are better of the early Christians? No. Absolutely not! In this book, the author exposes the true teaching of Scripture on this subject. Starting with the teaching of Jesus and his apostles warned that the Church of all times that it would pass through many tribulations, including the so-called Great Tribulation. Therefore, you reader who sticks to the pre-trib position, or you reader who does not adhere to any eschatological position of Christ s return, I invite you to read this book, reflect and analyze for yourself, as the Bereans did at the time of apostle Paul and thus convince the dangerous path, wide and spacious pre-trib teaching, which is apostasy (deviation from sound apostolic doctrine) and walk according to the teaching of the Lord Jesus which was confirmed by his apostles and is defended by over 1800 years in the history of the Church and also for all those who are and who truly love the Tour of his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Book excerpt: The Church passes through the Great Tribulation? Pre-tribulationists claim that God will not allow the Church to suffer in the Great Tribulation period. But there is no Bible verse that teaches that the church will not go through the Great Tribulation and nothing there is also in the Bible on the Second Coming of Christ in two phases or stages, separated by seven years of the Great Tribulation, and there is nothing on a "secret" rapture, because there is nothing secret and silent on reports that describe the rapture of the church (1 Thessalonians 4.16-17; Matthew 24:31). Another incongruity of this view is the idea of a rapture to take the Church and the Holy Spirit of the Earth before the manifestation of the antichrist. If this were the case, the Antichrist would be anti what? This to remove the Church and the Holy Spirit and then, yes, we have the conversion of Israel in a short period of 7 years, it is an offense to the ministry of the Church and of the Holy Spirit; A reductionism of the Mission of the Church and the Spirit that promotes escapism and alienation, and hurt the common sense. In this book, I shall expound the teaching of Scripture on this subject. I'll start showing that both Jesus and his apostles warned that the Church will go through many hardships, including the so-called Great Tribulation and that this is not abandonment signal or defeat. Then we will study the signs that precede the Second Coming of Christ. Demonstrating that the biblical teaching is that the Rapture of the Church will take place after the Great Tribulation, being an integral part of the Second Coming of Christ is a unique and visible event for all the inhabitants of the land. Jesus will destroy the Antichrist with the breath of his mouth at the time of his coming. Finally, after demonstrating the lack of biblical basis of the pre-trib view, I will say something about the alarming rise of this doctrine, which does not have the Bible with their source of inspiration, but a prophetic vision of a person of the century XIX.
Download or read book The Rapture Exposed written by Barbara R. Rossing and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2007-03-30 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of "The Rapture" -- the return of Christ to rescue and deliver Christians off the earth -- is an extremely popular interpretation of the Bible's Book of Revelation and a jumping-off point for the best-selling "Left Behind" series of books. This interpretation, based on a psychology of fear and destruction, guides the daily acts of thousands if not millions of people worldwide. In The Rapture Exposed, Barbara Rossing argues that this script for the world's future is nothing more than a disingenuous distortion of the Bible. The truth, Rossing argues, is that Revelation offers a vision of God's healing love for the world. The Rapture Exposed reclaims Christianity from fundamentalists' destructive reading of the biblical story and back into God's beloved community.
Download or read book Rapture written by David Currie and published by Sophia Institute Press. This book was released on 2003-07-31 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The end-times error that leaves the Bible behind! Author David Currie grew up convinced that one day all true Christians will suddenly be snatched up to heaven. The unfortunate souls left behind by this "rapture" will endure seven horrible years of tribulation, at the end of which Christ will return to earth for a glorious thousand-year reign. Today, millions of Christians accept this end-times theology, assuming - as Currie did -- that the Bible clearly teaches it. Many plan their whole lives around it. But, after studying Scripture for decades, Currie has come to see that if you accept the Bible, you have to reject the rapture. In these remarkable pages - which constitute the world's most careful and thorough scriptural study of the rapture - Currie demonstrates why. He considers all the relevant verses (and there are hundreds!) and examines them in the light of ancient history, the writings of the earliest Christians, and the claims of rapturist theologians. With painstaking thoroughness, he unlocks the meanings of the key biblical prophecies that culminate in Christ's Messianic Kingdom - including those verses in Daniel, Matthew, and Revelation that rapturists turn to most. Marshalling evidence that's as startling as it is compelling, Currie argues that these prophecies of war and tribulation don't point to some still-unrealized apocalyptic future. Rather, most of them were fulfilled long ago: the spiritual, priestly Kingdom prefigured in the Old Testament was inaugurated on Calvary, consummated in 70 A.D. with the destruction of the Temple, and continues to exist today . . . in the Catholic Church! That may surprise you. Yet, shows Currie, it's the only conclusion that fits all the scriptural and historical evidence. Rapture: The End-Times Error That Leaves the Bible Behind makes Scripture, prophecy, and history come alive; and it demonstrates that if you open your Bible, you'll find that God's plan for the future of the world is not filled with darkness and disaster, but with light, mercy, and hope. "We can all learn much from David Currie, not only from what he says, which is wise, but from how he says it, which is Catholic and Christian." From the Foreword by Scott Hahn. Special features: Over 1,300 references to Scripture, the early Church Fathers, authors and events in ancient history, and contemporary rapturist theologians Ten detailed timelines relating biblical prophecy to key historical events The biblical case for the rapture (showing why so many accept it) A survey of the thoughts of the early Church Fathers about the end-times A history of the development of rapturist theories, showing how this heresy has been refuted time and again by the Church A short course in the proper methods of reading Scripture A survey of end-times hypotheses from the first century through 9/11/2001 Nine ground rules you must follow if you are to make sense of biblical prophecy and relate it to salvation history A 10-page annotated bibliography of rapturist sources ancient and new Plus, much more to help you understand and evaluate the claims of rapturists Among the sources cited: Julius Africanus • St. Athanasius • St. Augustine • Pope Benedict XV • Andreas of Cappadocia • St. Clement of Alexandria • G.

Download or read book The Rapture written by Bill Vincent and published by RWG Publishing. This book was released on 2023-04-03 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unfortunately, most of our modern day teachings on this most important doctrine are misleading, to say the very least. Bill Vincent has studied for years and now is releasing his findings in this book, The Rapture. A careful scrutiny of the Scriptures will reveal the truth about the second coming of Christ, which we generally refer to as "the rapture". In The Rapture, he has set out to correct the most obvious errors of the pre-tribulation doctrine and to establish the basic foundation for understanding the truth of the matter. Great care is taken to follow the guidelines of Scripture and the Biblical basis of doctrinal interpretation, precept upon precept and line upon line. This is the only method of interpretation used in the pages of The Rapture. Since God Himself revealed His method of understanding doctrine, it is believed by the author to be the best method to use. Therefore, with Bible in hand, follow along with the Scriptures quoted and see if you don't find truth within its pages. In The Rapture, Bill answers questions that many do not know the answers to. Be open and allow this page turner to open up the biggest controversial subject of the rapture of Jesus Christ. If you are a lover of truth, you will enjoy this very basic presentation of Biblical facts concerning the doctrine of the "gathering together" of Christ's saints unto Himself.
Download or read book The Rapture written by John Musser and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2018-09-11 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One day while I was attending Brookside Baptist Church in Myrtle Springs, Texas, the pastor announced that starting the following Wednesday night service, he would begin an in-depth study on the rapture. The study would be titled 16 Reasons for a Pretribulation Rapture. That statement really piqued my curiosity. Having had studied the subject for an extended period of time over the years, I was amazed that someone could come up with that many reasons, so I joined the study the following Wednesday. After having received the handouts that evening, I began to take a critical look. I began to point out the errors in much of the reasoning behind the conclusions of that pastor. When the pages became numerous, I decided it was sufficient to be turned into a book. I felt this study should be examined by every believer. Many talk about salvation issues in Christianity. Many say the rapture is not one of them. That attitude alarms me. While ones belief on the rapture will not affect his salvation in itself, it will, without a doubt, become a stumbling block to being prepared to not receive the mark of the beast. Of that mark, the Bible says the one who receives that mark will have his fate sealed with the judgment of eternal damnation. If one is confident in a pretribulation rapture, he will be susceptible to dismissing the actual mark of the beast since he is convinced he will be taken out before that implementation. And for this cause, this book must be read!
Download or read book Global Dictionary of Theology written by William A. Dyrness and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2009-10-25 with total page 996 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theological dictionaries are foundational to any theological library. But until now there has been no Global Dictionary of Theology, a theological dictionary that presumes the contribution of the Western tradition but moves beyond it to embrace and explore a full range of global expressions of theology. The Global Dictionary of Theology is inspired by the shift of the center of Christianity from the West to the Global South. But it also reflects the increase in two-way traffic between these two sectors as well as the global awareness that has permeated popular culture to an unprecedented degree. The editorial perspective of the Global Dictionary of Theology is an ecumenical evangelicalism that is receptive to discovering new facets of truth through listening and conversation on a global scale. Thus a distinctive feature of the Global Dictionary of Theology is its conversational approach. Contributors have been called on to write in the spirit of engaging in a larger theological conversation in which alternative views are expected and invited. William A. Dyrness, Veli-Matti Kärkkäinen, Juan F. Martinez and Simon Chan edit approximately 250 articles written by over 100 contributors representing the global spectrum of theological perspectives. Pastors, theological teachers, theological students and lay Christian leaders will all find the Global Dictionary of Theology to be a resource that unfolds new dimensions and reveals new panoramas of theological perspective and inquiry. Here is a new launching point for doing theology in today's global context.
Download or read book The Secret Rapture Is it Scriptural written by Ralph Woodrow and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2024-07-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All Christians generally believe that Christ will come again and believers will be caught up to meet the Lord in the air. But as to the TIME of this event, (in relation to other events) there is not this general agreement. M.R. De Haan states that believers will be "caught up into heaven" BEFORE the tribulation period, on the other hand, Oswald Smith states, "There is not one single verse in the Bible that upholds a pre-tribulation theory, in short, There is no scripture for a pre-tribulation rapture." In perhaps Evangelist Ralph Woodrow's best work, The Secret Rapture, Is it Scriptural, any Bible student will deeply appreciate his quick and concise ability to cut through the smoke and mirrors to get directly to the facts of what the Bible states on this important topic. This new edition, sanctioned by Brother Woodrow, includes a foreword by Pastor Al Stewart, a long time admirer of Brother Woodrow's ministry. Truly a must-have on this topic!

Download or read book The Rapture Conspiracy Unveiled written by Ed Budd and published by . This book was released on 2013-12 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Rapture Conspiracy Unveiled For decades there has been a radical misreading of the Bible by some eschatologists. Dispensational teachers have misled many into believing false teachings about the end times without the support of Scripture. The Rapture Conspiracy Unveiled attempts to undo that harm. Rather than leaning on the writings of man, the book relies on the Bible to tell the story of Revelation providing scriptural proof of the facts about the Rapture and end times. The error of the Rapture Theory is objectively and conclusively revealed through a lively look at the very human parade of people involved in its evolution from the Garden of Eden through to the present. Author Ed Budd calls on more than 30 years of research and study of prophetic scripture and end times teachings to provide a comprehensive, easy-to-read reference tool for the pastor and teacher, or for the believer simply trying to decipher God s truth about end times issues.
Download or read book The Late Great Planet Earth written by Hal Lindsey and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2016-10-11 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impact of The Late Great Planet Earth cannot be overstated. The New York Times called it the "no. 1 non-fiction bestseller of the decade." For Christians and non-Christians of the 1970s, Hal Lindsey's blockbuster served as a wake-up call on events soon to come and events already unfolding -- all leading up to the greatest event of all: the return of Jesus Christ. The years since have confirmed Lindsey's insights into what biblical prophecy says about the times we live in. Whether you're a church-going believer or someone who wouldn't darken the door of a Christian institution, the Bible has much to tell you about the imminent future of this planet. In the midst of an out-of-control generation, it reveals a grand design that's unfolding exactly according to plan. The rebirth of Israel. The threat of war in the Middle East. An increase in natural catastrophes. The revival of Satanism and witchcraft. These and other signs, foreseen by prophets from Moses to Jesus, portend the coming of an antichrist . . . of a war which will bring humanity to the brink of destruction . . . and of incredible deliverance for a desperate, dying planet.
