Objections To Pretribulationism(3)

(d) The Restrainer Let me start from simple things first; the identity of the restrainer. The restrainer has been identified variously by pretribs as the Holy Spirit, the Church, human government, etc. None of these is the restrainer. The concept of the restrainer did not originate in the NT. The restrainer is an OT concept.Continue reading “Objections To Pretribulationism(3)”

Can A Believer Who Is Left Behind After The Rapture Be Saved?

Assuming a believer misses the Rapture when it occurs in the interlude between the end of the sixth seal and the breaking of the seventh seal(Inter-tribulational Period or Inter-wrath Period; The Prewrath Rapture View), can he/she still be saved? The affirmative view seems plausible on the surface, but when we examine the scriptures and theContinue reading “Can A Believer Who Is Left Behind After The Rapture Be Saved?”

Are Rev.7:1-8 And 14:1-5 Proof Texts That Some Believers Will Not Go Through The Great Tribulation?

I have come across some believers who use Rev.7:1-8 and Rev.14:1-5 which deal with the 144,000 as proof texts to teach that some within the Church will not go through the Great Tribulation. There is problem with this interpretation because the Rev.7:1-8 passage makes it clear those sealed are Jews. Some noticing this dilemma teachContinue reading “Are Rev.7:1-8 And 14:1-5 Proof Texts That Some Believers Will Not Go Through The Great Tribulation?”

The Eighth And Final Beast Empire Of Satan

The Eighth And Final Beast Empire of Satan is the last empire Satan will use to persecute Israel, the Jewish people and Christians the world over before God Almighty defeats Satan, and the antiMessiah and their armies at Armageddon, and retakes physical possession of the Earth, and evicts Satan and his fallen evil angels outContinue reading “The Eighth And Final Beast Empire Of Satan”

Reconciled

There is a lot of confusion about the 144,000. There are some that teach that the 144,000 in Rev.7:1-8 are different from the ones in Rev.14:1-5. The Jehovah Witnesses teach that they are the same which is biblically accurate, but then turn around and teach they are the only ones who will go to HeavenContinue reading “Reconciled”

The Precursor To The Rapture

At His first Advent, a star announced His birth to the Magi, the wise men from the East. “Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.
