Pre-Trib Rapture: Fact or Fantasy?

When will Christians be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air?

The rapture is prophesied in 1 Thessalonians chapter 4. But when will it occur? And why do we need to understand the timing of this event?

Today, there are many popular preachers who proclaim that Jesus could come at any moment to rescue Christians from an end-time tribulation, by means of a secret rapture.

But is this message of being caught up to heaven—before the tribulation begins—a myth or authentic?

Pastors, church leaders, students of theology and ordinary church members need to be properly informed. Many have never been equipped to prove for themselves whether or not these things are so.

In this book you’ll discover:

• The two most popular interpretations of 1 Thessalonians 4
• The recent origin of the pretrib rapture teaching
• More than 50 New Testament references to the return of Jesus

John Somers Holder unpacks the views for and against a pre-tribulational rapture. He concludes that a post-tribulational rapture provides a better fit to prophecies of the end times.
