In Part One I discussed the faulty application of Jesus’ words, “You do not know the day or the hour” to the pre-tribulation rapture theory. This post continues on from there. It's taken from my book (link below).

Rapture: The Truth About Imminence (Part 1).
Could Jesus Christ return without notice, at a time we aren't expecting Him to come? I will demonstrate in a two-part article that Biblical imminence is taken out of context to prove a pre-Tribulation rapture. Most especially I will draw attention to the fact that Jesus spoke of the imminence of his coming to those who would still be on the earth during Tribulation events.
RAPTURE: The Church is Not Missing from Revelation 4 to 22
Pre-Tribulation people tell us that the word "church" isn't used in Revelation after John is transported to heaven, and that therefore the Church will obviously be taken to heaven before any Tribulation events take place. In this article I will show that according to John's own commonly used words and phrases, they are wrong.
Rapture: The Real End of the Church Age.
When will the Church Age end? Will it end at all? This post critiques another assertion of pre-Tribulation rapture theology - one which I blindly accepted and promoted for many years.
Rapture: When Will the Wrath of God Begin, and Who Will it Affect?
Many people are certain that the coming Tribulation will be seven years long, complete with persecution, wars, plagues and stars falling from the sky. They have the impression that the first day of that seven-year period-when the ink is still wet on Antichrist’s “peace deal” document-marks the start of the outpouring of God’s wrath, which will continue for the entire period until Jesus returns physically in power and glory. Are they correct? I here suggest otherwise.
