The Pre-Wrath Rapture The Pre-Wrath Rapture A Brief Discussion of Hermeneutics Let's begin with a brief discussion of hermeneutics. What is a hermeneu- tic? Webster defines it as the study of the methods and principles of inter- pretation. As it applies to the Bible it is the study of how to understand the Bible. Most of us would agree on some basic principles regarding herme- neutics. 1) We should seek to understand the authors intended meaning. This is sometimes called exegesis. Getting the meaning out of the text as opposed to eisegesis, putting meaning into the text. We want to discover the mean- ing of the text, not determine the meaning of the text and we do that through things like context. 2) All Scripture must be taken in its proper context. This means that the in- terpretation of Scripture should be looked at in light of the verse and book in which the passage is found. The argument of the author and historical and cultural context should be taken into account. 3) Always compare scripture with other scripture. For example, If one is studying the return of Christ in one instance, then one needs to compare passages from Daniel Isaiah Ezekiel Zachariah Matthew First and 2 Thes- salonians, 2 Peter, Jude, Revelation etc… Only once all relevant passages have been studied and compared can we be sure of our interpretation. 4) Determine the literal references of figures of speech that provide com- parison, substitution, and amplification. Scripture, like any serious literature, uses figures of speech. These include similes, metaphors, hyperbole, Idi- oms, and parallelisms. When the Bible wants you to allegorize or take something as a symbol it will make that clear in someway. For instance, words such as ‘like’ or, ‘as’, or ‘as it were’ are used. For instance, ‘as sack- cloth made of hair’. Clearly that is poetic language yet it is intending to con- vey some literal truth. In that case it is that the sun will be darkened just as sackcloth is also dark. Jesus spoke in parables but he was intending to convey some literal truth. 5) Recognize the near/far implications and applications of prophetic pas- sages. It is common in prophetic literature to have a both near application and far application to a certain prophecy. The letters to the seven churches for example in revelation were relevant to their immediate audience. Yet these letters also mentioned the coming of Christ and are thus relevant to the final generation that will be on earth when he returns. Another example would be the abomination of desolation. This was prefigured or fulfilled in the time between the old and new Testaments with Antiochus Epiphanies. However, Christ said that we would see it again before his coming. Mean- ing there is another fulfillment of that prophecy as well. There are no contradictions. If you have a contradiction you have the wrong hermeneutic. Justin Martyr once said, ‘Since I am entirely convinced that no scripture contradicts another I will rather acknowledge that I do not understand what is written.’ The Pre-Wrath View of the Rapture There have traditionally been three views of the rapture, pre, mid and post trib. However in 2010 the second edition of "The Three Views on the Rap- ture" published by Zondervan did away with the second position, Mid- Tribulation, and replaced it with pre-wrath. This shows that the pre-wrath position is not some fly-by-night view but can be articulated and defended from a scholarly perspective and that it has overtaken the mid tribulation view in many people's minds and I will suggest that it will ultimately end the rapture debate altogether if it could be given a fair hearing. I think this is ac- tually a good book for one particular reason. It explains the pre-wrath view more or less correctly. Unlike on the Internet where there seem to be many people claiming to critique the pre-wrath view who clearly don't appear to know what the pre-wrath view teaches, which is one of the greatest obsta- cles to a true debate on this matter in my opinion. People are unaware of what this view is actually saying. The book of Revelation gives us very vivid images of the wrath of God. It is symbolized as a scroll. There are seals that are keeping the scroll from being opened. Revelation 5:2 says, “Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll”. The answer is given "but one of the elders said to me 'do not weep, behold, the lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has pre- vailed to open the scroll and to loose it's seven seals." Christ came the first time as a Suffering Servant, to be the Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world. The next time he will come in judgment. After all who is worthy to judge but he who has no sin. Acts 7:31 says, “because he has appointed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by rais- ing him from the dead.” I will make a case later on that the seals are not the judgment itself, but only the contents of the scroll are considered God's wrath. In the last days the wrath of God will be played out during a specific time called the ‘Day of the Lord’. This day is referred to quite a lot in the old and New Testament, in fact, about 70 times. It is a time period of longer than one day so don't let that throw you off. The word for day is ‘Yom’ in the Hebrew. It is used both ways in the text, which is always determined by the context. We know that the Day of the Lord in prophecy is at least longer than five months because of the fifth trumpet which is part of the day the Lord, and that's a plague that lasts about five months. So, the Day of the Lord is at least that long, but for many reasons it is probably much longer than that and Christians will be raptured before this time. Many passages speak of Day of the Lord as an unparalleled time God's wrath. Zephaniah says, “Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them In the day of the Lord's wrath; But the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of His jealousy, for He will make speedy riddance of all those who dwell in the land..” Zephaniah 1:18 Isaiah says something interesting about the Day of the Lord as we pro- gress. He says the loftiness of man shall be bowed down and the haughti- ness of man shall be brought low. The Lord alone shall be exalted in that day. In the New Testament John says that the Day of the Lord will be God's wrath in Revelation 6. It says "And say unto the mountains and rocks. Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb. For the great day of his wrath has come and who is able to stand". Peter has the same idea when he says "but the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men, but the Day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night in which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise and the elements will melt with fervent heat. The earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.” The Promise of a Sign Because of the severity of the Day of the Lord God has promised to give the world a sign that his wrath is about to begin. The book of Joel is almost entirely about the Day of the Lord and he says, “The sun shall be turned into darkness, And the moon into blood, Be- fore the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord.” Joel 2:31 This is also repeated in the New Testament in the book of Acts when it says, “The sun shall be turned into darkness, And the moon into blood, Be- fore the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord..” Acts 2:20 When signs in the sun, moon, and stars are given everyone will be terri- fied. Everyone that is except the righteous people who look forward to this day because it means that their redemption is drawing near. It says in Luke 21, "And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring; men's hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.” 2 Peter 3:10-13 Peter also instructs the Christians. He wrote to, “But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.

  • 2 Thessalonians 2:1-8: Does It Support a Pre-Wrath View? by Eric Douma
    C CI 2 Thessalonians 2:1-8: Does it Support a Pre-wrath View? By Eric Douma A STATEMENT ABOUT CONTEXT Before I begin presenting my position, I want to extend a word of gratitude to my pre-wrath friends, Alan Kurschner and Ryan Habbena. Although this paper is a critique of their eschatological position, I consider these men to be brothers in Christ with whom I share similar views in 99.9% of our theology. Furthermore, since I regard the issue of the timing of the rapture to be a peripheral one (an important issue to be sure, but not one to break fellowship over), I want those on the pre-wrath side to understand the spirit of this critique. In times past, I was quite smitten with the pre-wrath position, especially the evidence I believed 2 Thessalonians 2:1-8 gave to their position. The more I have studied, however, the more I have come to see problems with this position. I hope my pre-wrath friends see this critique as a way of “pushing the ball down the field” in the attempt to help us all move closer to the truth the Scriptures teach. I fully expect a robust response, and welcome the refutation of any of my points if they do not represent truly what the Scriptures proclaim. It is to these men and in this spirit I dedicate my paper. Soli Deo gloria! OBJECTIVE AND APPROACH Many scholars from differing eschatological camps have used 2 Thessalonians 2 as a proof text for their particular brand of end time events.

  • The Rapture in Twenty Centuries of Biblical Interpretation
    TMSJ 13/2 (Fall 2002) 149-171 THE RAPTURE IN TWENTY CENTURIES OF BIBLICAL INTERPRETATION James F. Stitzinger Associate Professor of Historical Theology The coming of God’s Messiah deserves closer attention than it has often received. The future coming of the Messiah, called the “rapture,” is imminent, literal and visible, for all church saints, before the hour of testing, premillennial, and, based on a literal hermeneutic, distinguishes between Israel and the church. The early church fathers’ views advocated a sort of imminent intra- or post- tribulationism in connection with their premillennial teaching. With a few exceptions, the Medieval church writers said little about a future millennium and a future rapture. Reformation leaders had little to say about prophetic portions of Scripture, but did comment on the imminency of Christ’s return. The modern period of church history saw a return to the early church’s premillennial teaching and a pretribulational rapture in the writings of Gill and Edwards, and more particularly in the works of J. N. Darby. After Darby, pretribulationism spread rapidly in both Great Britain and the United States. A resurgence of posttribulationism came after 1952, accompanied by strong opposition to pretribulationism, but a renewed support of pretribulationism has arisen in the recent past. Five premillennial views of the rapture include two major views—pretribulationism and posttribulation-ism—and three minor views—partial, midtribulational, and pre-wrath rapturism. * * * * * Introduction The central theme of the Bible is the coming of God’s Messiah. Genesis 3:15 reveals the first promise of Christ’s coming when it records, “He shall bruise you on the head, And you shall bruise him on the heel.”1 Revelation 22:20 unveils the last promise when it records “He who testifies to these things says, ‘Yes, I am coming quickly,’ Amen.

    OVERCOMING MILLENNIAL MADNESS An introduction to the study of prophecy and end times Class 2 – Coming to Terms with the End Times: An Eschatological Glossary Millennial Views: • Millennium: A one-thousand-year period of time during which Messiah will rule over the world while seated on the Davidic throne in Jerusalem, described in Revelation 20.1 • Eternity Future (or Eternal State): A never-ending era following Christ’s millennial reign spoken of in Revelation 21-22.2 • Premillennialism: A second-century AD prophetic school of thought teaching that Christ rules over an earthly kingdom after His second coming.3 • Amillennialism. A fourth-century AD school of prophetic thought that teaches that the church is a spiritual Israel, Christ rules a heavenly kingdom (never one on earth), and all end-time events occur almost simultaneously just prior to eternity future commencing.4 • Postmillennialism: An eighteenth-century AD prophetic school of thought that anticipates the church triumphing over the world prior to Christ’s second coming.5 Most popular in the nineteenth century, this view holds that the world will become progressively better with the ultimate triumph of the gospel. Christ will return after the millennium. It has been revised in “Christian reconstructionism.”6 • Preterism: A prophetic school of thought that proposes that Christ’s second coming occurring in AD 70.7 Tribulation and Rapture: • Tribulation: The future seven-year period described in Revelation 6-19. During this period God judges an unbelieving world and His disobedient people, Israel.8 • Daniel’s Seventieth Week: A time spoken of in Daniel 9:24-27 that corresponds to the seven-year period of tribulation just prior to Christ’s millennial reign on earth.

  • End Times Timeline CCC August 30, 2020 Visuals
    End Times Timeline CCC August 30, 2020 Visuals – Across the stage signage. Four signs representing each age. Three cutouts – One of Rapture, one of Second Coming, one of Zombie Introduction – Quick show of hands. How many people have ever found end times stuff to be Confusing? If your neighbor just raised his/her hand, say to them “I knew you were confused.” How would you like to have a quick handle on what is going to happen when Jesus comes back again? Today, I am going to try to make that happen in under 40 minutes. So lets pray. Seriously… Pray OK, so the end times are so crazy partly because of terminology. Partly because of theological positions. Partly because the Bible is crystal clear on some things – like Jesus is coming back. Unclear on other things – like what is the order of events. And downright intentionally obtuse about other things – like when the rapture will take place. So I am going to run after this with a really clear statement up front. “I might be wrong.” I know… a shocking thing for a pastor to admit. Now raise your eyebrows and turn to the person next to you and say – he might be wrong. (really, I wont do that all message). I have studied this for 30 years now and changed my mind a few times. I may change it again in five years. I may have never been right on some aspects – so I’ll do my best to share multiple views and my personal opinion… but just so you know that I know that this is complex stuff that will come down in the future – and I am approaching it all with humility – and I’ll let you know if I change my mind.

  • A Comparison of the Synoptic Eschatological Discourses and Revelation 6–20 by Ron J
    A Comparison of the Synoptic Eschatological Discourses and Revelation 6–20 by Ron J. Bigalke Jr. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate parallels between the synoptic eschatological discourses (Matthew 24–25; Mark 13; Luke 17:22–37; 21:7–36) and Revelation 6–20 in a sequential format, focusing upon the first half of the Tribulation period, or Daniel’s seventieth week1 Correlation of each event of Revelation 6–20 with its timing in the eschatological discourses provides a better understanding of the current age (in regard to the signs of the end times, or stage setting), the wrath of God, and the return of Christ and His judgment. Sequential Judgments There is an expanding development of the judgments in the Book of Revelation.2 In other words, the seal, trumpet, and bowl judgments have a sequential relationship. The series of judgments are not parallel and simultaneous in the sense of recapitulation. It is best to interpret each series as generally following its antecedent. This means that the seventh seal judgment leads into the series of the seven trumpet judgments and the seventh trumpet judgment leads into the series of the seven bowl judgments. The evidence for a sequential order of the judgments is that each series of judgments increases in destruction and intensity. For instance, the second trumpet judgment destroys one-third of the sea creatures, whereas the second bowl judgment turns the sea into blood (Revelation 8:8–9; 16:3). The fourth trumpet judgment darkens the sun partially, whereas the fourth bowl judgment intensifies its heat so as to make it scorching to humanity.

  • The Rapture and the Book of Revelation
    TMSJ 13/2 (Fall 2002) 215-239 THE RAPTURE AND THE BOOK OF REVELATION Keith H. Essex Assistant Professor of Bible Exposition The relevance of the book of Revelation to the issue of the timing of the rapture is unquestioned. Assumptions common to many who participate in discussing the issue include the authorship of the book by John the apostle, the date of its writing in the last decade of the first century A.D., and the book’s prophetic nature in continuation of OT prophecies related to national Israel. Ten proposed references to the rapture in Revelation include Rev 3:10-11; 4:1-2; 4:4 and 5:9-10; 6:2; 7:9-17; 11:3-12; 11:15-19; 12:5; 14:14-16; and 20:4. An evaluation of these ten leads to Rev 3:10-11 as the only passage in Revelation to speak of the rapture. Rightly understood, that passage implicitly supports a pretribulational rapture of the church. That understanding of the passage fits well into the context of the message to the church at Philadelphia. * * * * * “As the major book of prophecy in the NT, Revelation has great pertinence to discussion of the rapture.”1 Participants in the discussion concerning the timing of the rapture would concur with this statement. Proponents of a pretribulational, midtribulational, pre-wrath, and posttribulational rapture all seek support for their positions in the book of Revelation.2 Many suggestions as to where Revelation 1Robert H.

  • What Is Prewrath?
    PREWRATH—WHAT IS IT? by ALAN KURSCHNER !Many of us were told that the church will be “raptured out of here before the Antichrist’s arrival.” The Bible, however, teaches the church will first experience the Antichrist’s great tribulation. Then, at some unknown day and hour, Antichrist’s persecution will be cut short by the return of Christ to resurrect and rapture believers before the day of the Lord’s wrath—hence, Prewrath. !The purpose why the church will suffer greatly just before Christ’s second coming will be for purging and purifying, separating out those who claim to have faith from those who actually possess true faith. But believers are promised deliverance before the day of the Lord’s wrath. Accordingly, there is an important biblical distinction between the events of the Antichrist’s great tribulation and the day of the Lord’s wrath. Antichrist’s great tribulation will be directed against the church, followed by the day of the Lord’s wrath directed against the ungodly. The apostle Paul states: Now regarding the arrival of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to be with him, we ask you, brothers and sisters, not to be easily shaken from your composure or disturbed by any kind of spirit or message or letter allegedly from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord is already here. Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not arrive until the rebellion comes and the man of lawlessness [Antichrist] is revealed, the son of destruction.
