I have an original copy (it is a very rare book) but can be read on-line on the PB ministries web page. Reese took some 20 years to write this book-how times have changed! A thoroughly readable work with the odd witty anecdote interspersed here and there, some say a little bombastic, but nonetheless, a serious theological work. One that you have to STUDY-not just read!<br /><br />Pre-tribulationism is a theory that many think has biblical support because there is no apparent mention of the "church" between Revelation 4, until the Lord's glorious return with His saints in the chapter 19. But this hypothesis can be dismantled at a stroke, if we believe what the Bible plainly teaches; that there is NO distinction between OT and NT saints, regards salvation! One church of called out ones in all dispensations, OT & NT.<br />How some get tripped up with "how can Jesus come with His saints, if they haven't previously been raptured?" Apart from ignoring the Greek word apantesis, (Matt 25.6, Acts 28.15), they are probably woefully ignorant to the fact that perhaps most of His saints are already 'asleep' in their graves!<br /><br />There WILL be ONE Second Coming, and it won't be silent, secret or any moment, for "every eye shall see Him..." Rev 1.7!<br /><br />God bless.<br /><br />colinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07132820921599851331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4103925900569325548.post-72574275666865326082017-03-04T07:38:21.187-08:002017-03-04T07:38:21.187-08:00It's hard not to get at least mildly hysterica...It's hard not to get at least mildly hysterical (smiling here) when reading prolific prophecy penman MacPherson's "Pretrib was NEW in the 1830s" revelation, especially when imagining how rapidly the average pretribber must be reaching for the nearest box of smelling salts to keep from fainting dead away from the ambush of in-your-face history. At the same time I can see various wolf packs surrounding this tell-all blog and discussing among themselves the best possible ways to sharpen their facts-fighting fangs! <br />Irvhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07634792243846422285noreply@blogger.com
