PRETRIB RAPTURE STEALTH !

Many evangelicals believe that Christ will “rapture” them to heaven
years before the second coming and (most importantly) well BEFORE
Antichrist and his “tribulation.” But Acts 2:34, 35 reveal that Jesus is
at the Father’s right hand in heaven until He
leaves to destroy His earthly foes at the second coming. And Acts 3:21
says that Jesus “must” stay in heaven with the Father “until the times
of restitution of all things” which includes, says Scofield, “the
restoration of the theocracy under David’s Son” which
obviously can’t begin before or during Antichrist’s reign. (“The Rapture
Question,” by the long time No. 1 pretrib authority John Walvoord,
didn’t dare to even list, in its scripture index, the above verses! They
were also too hot for John Darby – the so-called
“father of dispensationalism” – to list in the scripture index in his
“Letters”!)

Paul explains the “times and the seasons” (I Thess. 5:1) of the
catching up (I Thess. 4:17) as the “day of the Lord” (5:2) which FOLLOWS
the posttrib sun/moon darkening (Matt. 24:29; Acts 2:20) WHEN “sudden
destruction” (5:3) of the wicked occurs! The
“rest” for “all them that believe” is also tied to such destruction in
II Thess. 1:6-10! (If the wicked are destroyed before or during the
trib, who’d be left alive to serve the Antichrist?) Paul also ties the
change-into-immortality “rapture” (I Cor. 15:52)
to the end of trib “death” (15:54). (Will death be ended before or
during the trib? Of course not! And vs. 54 is also tied to Isa. 25:8
which Scofield views as Israel’s posttrib resurrection!) It’s amazing
that the Olivet Discourse contains the “great commission”
for the church but not even a hint of a pretrib rapture for the church!

Many don’t know that before 1830 all Christians had always viewed I
Thess. 4’s “catching up” as an integral part of the final second coming
to earth. In 1830 this “rapture” was stretched forward and turned into
an idolized separate coming of Christ. To further
strengthen their novel view, which evangelical scholars overwhelmingly
rejected throughout the 1800s, pretrib teachers in the early 1900s began
to stretch forward the “day of the Lord” (what Darby and Scofield never
dared to do) and hook it up with their already-stretched-forward
“rapture.” Many leading evangelical scholars still weren’t convinced of
pretrib, so pretrib teachers then began teaching that the “falling away”
of II Thess. 2:3 is really a pretrib rapture (the same as saying that
the “rapture” in 2:3 must happen before the
“rapture” [“gathering”] in 2:1 can happen – the height of desperation!).
