The Pre-Wrath Rapture Answered from the Testimony of Scripture

by Lee W. Brainard

The day of the Lord is the central theme of the Bible's prophetic teaching, yet it often receives superficial treatment by prophetic teachers, which is why it is so frequently misunderstood by them.

This work goes straight to the heart of the pre-wrath rapture theory, the location of the day of the Lord, and demonstrates that their location of this pivotal day is unsound. The day of the Lord does not arrive during the seventieth week as they insist. Nor does it arrive at the beginning of the seventieth week as many pretribulationists teach. A thorough analysis of the day of the Lord passages in the Bible demonstrates that the day of the Lord is the day that the Lord Jesus descends from heaven with fiery judgment to remove all the ungodly and all ungodliness from Earth and establish his kingdom. This location is fatal to the pre-wrath rapture. And while this perspective challenges the assumptions of some pretribulationist teachers, it offers not the least threat to the pretribulation rapture itself.
