Synopsis

Despite the popular theology of our day, Christians should not expect to get out of experiencing the tribulation or the end times. Nowhere in the Bible does the Lord promise us this, say Michael Brown and Craig Keener, two leading, acclaimed Bible scholars. In fact, they say, Jesus promises us tribulation in this world. Yet this is no reason to fear. In this fascinating, accessible, and personal book, Brown and Keener walk you through what the Bible really says about the rapture, the tribulation, and the end times. What they find will leave you full of hope. God's wrath is not poured out on His people, and He will shield us from it--as he shielded Israel in Egypt during the ten plagues. So instead of taking comfort in what God hasn't promised, take comfort in the words of Jesus: He has overcome the world, and we live in his victory.

Brown & Craig S. Keener, Not Afraid of the Antichrist) The authors in this book believe there's very little......more

Goodreads review by Joel on May 20, 2019

This was an interesting read as I had very different expectations for what the book would cover. The book is aimed at dispelling beliefs about a rapture (i.e. escapist doctrine), and does so by considering the scriptures that have been used to suggest one. In this regard it functions like a systemat......more

Goodreads review by Sarah on February 06, 2019

My previously pretrib family has recently changed our position on the timing of the rapture (because of studies my dad [a pastor] has done on Matthew 24). We had been quite staunchly pretribulationalists before, but had always had some doubts and questions about certain implications and assumptions......more

TWO PROMINENT AUTHORS STRONGLY REJECT ‘PRE-TRIBULATIONALISM’ Authors Michael l. Brown and Craig Keener wrote in the Preface to this 2019 book, “Even though it has been decades since either of us has believed in the ‘Left Behind’ (escape before the final Tribulation) idea, we never divide from others......more
