This is a never-ending source of fascination for me: How is it that those who adhere to a post-Tribulation Rapture perspective can actually look forward to those horrific seven years of God’s wrath and judgment? And they do. There is almost a glee about many of them as they consider these coming difficult times. In their thinking: Oh, they’ll be shielded by God and also be performing astounding miracles. I think some see themselves symbolically as the Two Witnesses. They’ll live in protected, sustainable communities apart from all those on the receiving end of God’s punishment. It’ll be a glorious time, unlike any other ever experienced on the earth for them. Well, they’ve got that last part right.

Biblical Audio Commentary – Steeped in Sin
I’m going to apologize up front for this Commentary because its premise is so disgusting – yet, if we don’t examine these issues, we remain willfully ignorant or hopelessly naïve, our heads stuck in the sand, and we as Christians then cannot pray against the evil.

Biblical Audio Commentary – Desolation of the Earth
There is a blindness among Christians concerning the times and what is to come. We who believe in a pre-Tribulation Rapture probably have a better grasp of this than those who scorn this true Biblical position. We’ve pointed out many times that the place in which we’re at in human history is one that Scripture prophetically calls out.
Deepest Darkness to Blinding Brilliance
It’s easy for us to forget the astounding grace of God. We who live in America and are part of western civilization have been so blessed and – frankly – have lives that are generally free from true hardship, that we take for granted all that God has given us.
