As a pastor who believes in a pre-Tribulation rapture, let me say this: I am not preparing the bride for wrath; I am preparing the bride for a wedding. I am not preparing the bride to have her garments stained by the wickedness of the world, I am preparing the bride to hold onto the purity and hope of Christ.

In A World Encased In Violence, Prophecy Is The Stabiliser Of Our Faith

Counterfeits: How Tyrants Use ‘godhood’ As A Means Of Propaganda And Rule

I Never Thought I Would See The Day… When Our World Would Be Upside Down

Amir Tsarfati: The Great And Terrible Day Of The Lord Is Not In The Church’s Future
