I didn’t go there but I’m assuming “pre-trib.org” must be a rapture believing site.

For those who are interested, the scriptural proofs that there is no such thing as an early ‘rapture’ removing Christians from the earth prior or during the Tribulation are monumentally stronger than the thin and actualy UNscriptural arguments for such a phenomenon.

This site has some of the best biblical scholarship I have ever found:

Here is their take on the fallacy of a pre-tribulation ‘Rapture’ written by an associate of theirs they agree with 100%. If you read this material and you still believe in a ‘Rapture’ .... then biblical exegesis means not much at all to you.

Postmillennialists who deny the Rapture tend to do so on the basis of slipshod exegesis and circular hermeneutical principles.

Thank you very much for the link. I have long noted inconsistencies in the scripture over the concept of a Rapture. Plus, it seemed illogical that millions of Christians could disappear overnight without the world recognizing it as the “Rapture,” thereby proving Christians were right all along (and letting those left behind know they missed out).

After reading the material at the link, it’s clear. There are no inconsistencies. I now am convinced Christ only returns once, at the end of the Tribulation. That is why scripture says the Anti-Christ might fool even the elect if they aren’t careful (because the elect will still be here).
