Evidence for the Rapture - by John F Hart (Paperback)

About the Book

Is the rapture still going to happen? And if so, when?

With contributing scholars from schools like Moody Bible Institute, Dallas Theological Seminary, and The Master's Theological Seminary, Evidence for the Rapture is a convincing and thoroughly biblical case for the rapture.

This collection of exegetical essays looks at the rapture from a number of biblical angles: the words of Jesus in the Gospels, Paul's teachings in the epistles, and even prophetic and apocalyptic literature. In sound exegetical technique, the authors corroborate Scripture's main teachings on the end times to provide a trustworthy and concise treatment of a multi-faceted issue.

For the last several hundred years, the doctrine of a pretribulation rapture has been a fixture in many churches and institutions. Evidence for the Rapture is a fresh polish upon this long-standing doctrine.

From the Back Cover

Will the church experience the tribulation?

While disagreement about the end times may seem trivial, the times themselves are anything but that. God's revelation is to be taken seriously, even the more puzzling parts. Evidence for the Rapture sorts through what has stumped many for centuries: Scripture's teaching on the rapture.

In this collection of exegetical essays, professors from leading Bible schools give a biblical and convincing case for a pretribulation rapture. In sound interpretive technique, they incorporate the relevant Scriptures from a number of biblical angles, including:

• The words of Jesus in the Gospels
  
• Paul's teachings in the epistles
  
• Prophetic literature
  
• Apocalyptic literature
  
• The redemptive history of Israel

A strong contender in the ongoing end times debate, the doctrine of a pretribulation rapture has remained a fixture in many churches and institutions over the last few hundred years. Evidence for the Rapture is a fresh polish on this long-standing doctrine.
