We Were Wrong About The RaptureA Biblical Breakdown

Pre-trib, mid-trib, or post-trib? Christians have debated the timing of the rapture for centuries. This episode dives deep into the three main views, exploring the impressive biblical support for each and revealing a key concept that might change how you see it all.

What You'll Discover

Daniel's 70 Weeks

A mind-blowing breakdown of Daniel's prophecy that predicted the exact year of Christ's Triumphal Entry, and what it means for the final seven years.

Pre-Tribulation View

Explore the arguments that the Church will be raptured *before* the seven-year tribulation begins, escaping God's wrath entirely.

Mid-Tribulation View

Discover the theory that believers will endure the first 3.5 years but be raptured before the most intense period of God's judgment.

Post-Tribulation View

Unpack the evidence that the Church will endure the entire tribulation, being raptured to meet Christ as He returns to earth in glory.

The Welcoming Committee

Learn how the Greek word for 'meet' (apantesis) implies a welcoming party going out to greet a returning king and escorting him back into his city.

The Restrainer

Dive into 2 Thessalonians 2 to debate the identity of the mysterious 'restrainer' who holds back the Antichrist until he is 'taken out of the way'.

Rethinking The Rapture

This isn't just about picking a timeline. It's about understanding the nature of Christ's return and our role in it. Two key concepts might change your perspective entirely.

One Event, Not Two Comings

The video argues that the rapture is inseparable from the Second Coming. Rather than a secret, separate event where Jesus whisks the church away, the rapture is part of the grand, public, and glorious return of the King to establish His kingdom on earth.

A Royal Welcome (Apantesis)

The Greek word for 'meet' in the rapture passages was used in the Roman world to describe a city's citizens going out to meet a visiting king or dignitary and then escorting him back into the city in a grand procession. This suggests we rise not to leave, but to welcome our King home.

What Viewers Are Saying

This conversation is resonating deeply with our audience.

"High quality stream. My eschatology is "Jesus said to be ready and alert and be ready for a lot of difficult things to happen", and I don't see too much of a practical need to go beyond that."

- @Dizerner

"Love the video... But, there are too many holes in the post trib rapture view for it to be true.. .but as long as we all have Jesus as our Savior thats all that matters .."

- @BrndiMiller

"The church will be here for the tribulation"
