Editorial Review:
Explains why men like Oswald J. Smith would say: "There is not a single verse in the Bible that upholds the pre-tribulation theory." Based on part one of GREAT PROPHECIES OF THE BIBLE, by Ralph Woodrow, this 64-page book (available in this form for wider distribution), shows that the now-popular "secret" rapture was not taught in the early centuries of the church, but developed within the last two centuries.
All Christians generally believe that Christ will come again and believers will be caught up to meet the Lord in the air. But as to the TIME of this event (in relation to other events), there is not this general agreement. De Haan says that believers will be caught "up into heaven" before the tribulation period and that this "is the teaching of Revelation and of the entire Bible." On the other hand, many believe the same as Oswald J. Smith, who said there is no Scripture for the secret rapture theory.

Rating:  - Ready or Not, Here I Come
The post-tribulation view that Christ returns in glory after the tribulation is correct. This is what I Corinthians 15 and I Thessalonians 4 teach occurs with the resurrection. These passages do not describe the rapture because "we shall all be changed" unlike when Christ appears unexpectedly before the tribulation when he decides who is worthy to escape the tribulation. See Luke 17, 13, and 12. Ironically, in that order. Jesus says when we see the antichrist head for the hills. Luke 17 and Matthew ... Read More
Rating:  - A simple response to complex error
Over the years I've found that correct understanding can be explained simply and concisely through reference to biblical verse. When one has to resort to long-winded explanations and logical gymnastics to make one's point he is likely in error. This wonderful booklet explains simply the error in this inconsistent, strained and unbiblical tradition.
Rating: - Unscriptural review comments by Richard Capetto
Capetto's review represents what is known as a "futurist" point of view on prophecy and is NOT scriptural! There is no scriptural authority to place all of the events after chapter 3 vs 1 in Revelation in a 7 year future period of time. The 7 years known as the Tribulation comes from Daniels 70 weeks prophecy in Dan 9:24. This prophecy was given exclusively for the nation of Israel and all 70 weeks were completed shortly after the stoning of Steven. By what authority do we have to separate the first ... Read More
Rating: - WELL DONE
Thank God for fellow believer Ralph woodrow for exposing the dangerous false docrine of the secret rapture .So many belivers today are sucked in to believing the lie that the lord Jesus will return to earth twice ,If we read our Bibles again and again you will have no problem seeing the Lord will return only once . This book is well written and easy to read ,well done Ralph
Rating: - Clear, Concise, and to the Point
This is a five-star book, from beginning to end. It's a small book - 49 pages of actual content - but it would be a challenge to find a single word the author doesn't need. In its pages, Ralph Woodrow challenges pretribulationism's secret, two-stage rapture position in one of the most clear, direct, and concise manners I've ever read.
Woodrow opens with the premise held by pretribulationists that the rapture is secret event, known only to believers. He then lays out an astonishingly straightforward ... Read More
