Bible Question: Hi Tim, Is it true that you understand the prewrath position? CDBJ |
Bible Answer: Greetings CDBJ! Yes, I hold to the pre-Wrath rapture of the Church! I assume you are refering to my quote to Nolan. My point there was simply that no matter when the rapture occurs, we need to be ready. The "best" case would be if Christ raptured the Church before any of the events of Daniel's 70th week. The "worst" case would be if Christ did not rapture the Church until the close of Daniel's 70th week. Either way, we need to be ready. Now, having said that, I personally believe that Daniel's 70th week is divided into two 3 1/2 year segments. The first will be a time of trouble for Israel. The second will be a time of wrath for the world. This view would mean that Christians will indeed face intense persecution during the first 3 1/2 years, but will not face God's wrath during the last 3 1/2 years. I hope this answers your question!
