One of the most talked-about things in Christian circles is the return of Jesus Christ to this world. Another is the Rapture of the Church. One of the best-selling series of books of all time is the "Left Behind" series, where the central theme of the series is a secret return of Jesus, where He takes all Christians out of the world before the Great Tribulation, and the catastrophic events that follow on the earth.

A large majority of the evangelical world holds the view that Jesus could return for His Church as any moment - that there is nothing that remains to happen before He can come again and "take His children home".

I believed these things for almost all the 55+ years of my life, and taught that for 25 years, but I no longer can. This book is written to show you why I no longer believe in a Pre-Tribulation Rapture. This is not an easy thing for me. But, I cannot deny what I now believe - the same that millions believed through the centuries - and I cannot remain silent.

My heart aches to say so, but I believe God will hold us responsible if we do not correctly understand this, and warn the world of what is coming. And I believe those who teach a Pre-Tribulation Rapture are doing the Church - and the world - a grave dis-service.
