Reclaiming the Rapture: Restoring the Doctrine of the Gathering of the Commonwealth of Israel
End-times Bible prophecy is like a 1000-piece jigsaw puzzle partially done. Many godly people have come before us establishing the borders of the puzzle. Parts of the faces and landscape are taking form, yet without the box cover showing the finished product, no one really knows how it ought to look when it is entirely assembled. The timing of the rapture is a puzzle-piece incorrectly placed by many mainstream theologians.
Authors Dr. Douglas Hamp and Chris Steinle take a fresh look at the rapture based on extensive Bible prophecy and a literal interpretation of the Scriptures. It's time to rethink God's purpose for the Is it an escape or a preparation for something greater? The rapture was prophesied from Genesis to Revelation. Why have dozens of rapture prophecies been overlooked by mainstream theology? Explore the ancient texts and discover God's clear and consistent revelation of end time events.
* Explore dozens of rapture verses.
* Understand the logic behind Paul's eschatology.
* Learn why the Day of Lord includes God's indignation, the rapture, and Second Coming.
* Enjoy dramatic vignettes from the Millennium Chronicles that bring Bible prophecies to life.
* Consider the connection between the rapture and the redemption of the body.
* Rethink the Gathering of Israel and how it applies to the Church.

* Know the signs preceding Christ's return.
* Includes four charts and three vignettes to showcase the authors' conclusions.

This presents a workable timeline for where the rapture could possibly fit in end time events. I've long been of the opinion that it will be at or very near the end, and I appreciate the way this this goes through the multitude of pre-trib proof texts and shows how each and every one of them read in context do not point toward a pre-trib rapture and, in many cases, actually show otherwise.

Finally, something makes sense!
Very thoughtfully researched. This is the first of many eschatological constructs that I've reviewed that doesn't seem to force the text. Dispensationalism with its prerequisite pre-trib rapture has always fit poorly with my understanding of God's Word. The authors spend little time dealing with the problem issues of competing viewpoints, choosing to focus instead on developing the basis of "Commonwealth Theology", and through its rather simple application, make a convincing case! May God bless Hamp and Steinle for having the courage to buck the status quo and find the truth.

Amazing and insightful!
I always respect research. An opinion for the sake of an opinion means little, as we all have them. But an opinion based on fact, histories and research, is an opinion I can listen to.
Even if you disagree at the end, with the writer, you will at minimum respect his hard work and diligence in his research.
Five Stars in my opinion! Well worth the read!
