The Rapture According to the Apostle Paul: God’s Guarantee of a Pre-Tribulation Rapture

The Rapture According to the Apostle Paul: God’s Guarantee of a Pre-Tribulation Rapture

Dr. Dennis McLelland

The” twinkling of an eye,” according to esteemed Bible teacher and physicist Dr. Chuck Missler,
is the time it takes light, at 186,000 miles per hour, to travel through the human eye. This is the
speed at which the Christian’s mortal body will be gloriously transformed into a perfect immortal
body, ready for eternity, as seen in 1 Corinthians 15: 52. When will this take place? At the
rapture of the Church.

My book, “The Rapture According to the Apostle Paul: God’s Guarantee of a Pre-Tribulation Rapture“, reveals that the Biblical rapture of the true Church is ignored and/or misunderstood by much of Christendom. Most Christians have little knowledge of this wondrous promise of God. Many within and without the Christian Church consider the rapture to be a contrived delusion spawned by atheists like Karl Marx in his Critique of Hegel's Philosophy of Right, 1843: “Die Religion... ist das Opium des Volkes.” (Mistranslated as “religion is the opiate of the masses.”)

The Bible promises that Jesus will remove every born-again Christian from the earth at the pre-tribulation rapture just prior to the start of the prophesized “Armageddon.”. Tragically, the rapture is one of the most divisive and contentious doctrinal issues in the Christian Church. The existence of false gospels that deny the surety of the rapture exacerbates this bewilderment by promoting non-Biblical “theories” within the Christian community.

My book arose from the need to help people understand God‘s plan for mankind. It is designed to help bring comfort and peace to people uncertain of their futures in a world that is coiling out of control. In addition, the sharing of my wife’s ministry (she serves as pastor) has further illuminated the lack of knowledge and understanding about the rapture and the tribulation.

The uniqueness of my book lies in its emphasis on Paul, whom Jesus chose to reveal the Gospel of Grace. This revolutionary Gospel promises salvation to those who believe in the life, death,
burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ; a radical departure from just “believing” in His name as
Peter and the disciples preached in order for the Jews to receive salvation.

I compare and contrast the truth of God’s word against the false gospels; the very “gospels” that
are raging throughout Christendom and seducing millions of Christians from the truth of God‘s word. My book provides a powerful sense of assurance that God will never allow the holy, collective Body of Christ, to endure the terrors of the tribulation. Mine is a message that every true Christian needs to hear!
