Many today are being taught that the church will be removed from the earth before the great tribulation in a pretribulation rapture. Contrary to this, The Church Through the Tribulation teaches a post-tribulation rapture and its implications for the church. It does this by presenting a commentary on the book of Revelation and the prophecies of Daniel. It also includes studies on the Day of the Lord, the Olivet Discourse, the apostle Paul's teachings, and other Old and New Testament end-time prophecies. The intent is to examine the totality of God's Word on the subject of eschatology and convey the consistent message that is taught throughout Scripture. In this process, some of the questions it answers are as follows:
Why would God allow his church to go through the great tribulation? Why does the Lord give believers the signs that will precede his Second Coming? Is the Day of the Lord an extended period of time, or is it just the last day of this world? What is the mystery of iniquity, and how is it manifesting in today's church? Does the church play a role in the rise of the Antichrist? Does God plan to work with both Israel and the church during the great tribulation? What significance do the epistles to the seven churches of Revelation have for believers today and for those enduring the great tribulation? What are the factors that result in the rise of the Antichrist? What does the Bible tell us about the Antichrist and his final world empire? Who will initially populate the millennial kingdom? And of those, who will be in their natural bodies?
The book shows that Christ taught that his followers will be in the great tribulation and suffer at the hands of the Antichrist, and as a consequence, many will depart from the faith. It also shows that believers who remain in the faith will be preserved through these trials and not suffer the wrath of God.
It also concludes that the concurrent-fulfillment model for the judgments of Revelation provides the correct interpretation of the prophecies. And it comes to this conclusion based exclusively on the clues provided in the text and the precedent God set in delivering the prophecies of Daniel and the Olivet Discourse.
This book is perfect for serious students of Bible prophecy as well as those concerned with the current state of the church and the future of humanity. The author analyzes God's Word with unparalleled attention to detail, which will have even veteran students of the Bible surprised at what they may have missed. And most importantly, the author's conclusions are based on a literal understanding of God's Word, avoiding speculation and "fantastic" interpretations.
