I would say "most" Evangelicals still do, especially after the "Left Behind" books. I realize that lately there has been a swing away from the Pre-Trib stance.

Best book I've seen on the subject is "Three Views on the Rapture: Pre: Mid: or Post Tribulation?" by Gleason Archer, Paul Feinberg, Douglas Moo and Richard Reiter.

It was published by Zondervan in 1984, so I don't know if it's still available.

Interestingly enough, Archer, Feinberg and Moo were (are) all professors at Trinity International University in Deerfield, IL, and each takes a different position on the Rapture, makes his case, and the other professors rebut.

Marvin Rosenthal, Renald Showers and Robert Van Kampen have written convincing arguments regarding the Pre-Wrath position but I believe Jesus Himself sent us an even greater message when He went through His own Tribulation. Are we not the Body of Christ?

All the more reason why I support Israel in these last days.

I believe that the "Left Behind" series is a great work of fiction but the unintended consequences will catch the Church unprepared for what is to come. But God in His Wisdom will use even these errors for His Glory.
