<br/><br/> Dr. Paul Karleen offers an insightful evaluation of the pre-wrath view of the Rapture, challenging such pre-wrath assertions as these: The church will be taken after the middle of Daniel's 70th week; There is no biblical evidence for the imminent return of Christ; The Day of the Lord does not include the Millennium; The Tribulation is shortened to less than 3 1/2 years; The archangel Michael is the restrainer of 2 Thessalonians chapter 2; Jesus Christ returns to earth only once in a combined Rapture and Second Advent in a coming that begins before the end of the 70th week and finishes after it. The Pre-Wrath Rapture of the Church: Is it Biblical? weighs pre-wrath arguments, not from the standpoint of any particular Rapture position, but with regard to facts, contexts, language, and logic. - Back cover.
