Posted on April 6, 2011 by The Orange Mailman

The first response to the posttrib position is written by Craig Blaising coming from a pretrib point of view, but perhaps more importantly he writes from a Progressive Dispensational point of view.  This is important because much of the Historicist viewpoint that Douglas … Continue reading →

Two responses to the prewrath position

Posted on March 29, 2011 by The Orange Mailman

The two responses to the prewrath position are worth studying in themselves.  I point out that prewrath is making somewhat of a debut in this edition of Zondervan’s book.  The last edition included the pretrib view, the midtrib view, and … Continue reading →

A Case for the Prewrath Rapture by Alan Hultberg

Posted on March 28, 2011 by The Orange Mailman

The second position presented in Zondervan’s latest version of Three Views on the Rapture is the Prewrath Rapture.  In every circumstance in this book, the positions are listed in this order, pretribulational, prewrath, then posttribulational.  The reason is most likely that … Continue reading →

Posted on March 20, 2011 by The Orange Mailman

After each author presents his case for the rapture, the other two have the opportunity to critique the position that has been presented.  They are termed responses, but critique is probably the better word while rebuttal would be going too … Continue reading →

A Case for the Pretribulation Rapture by Craig Blaising

Posted on March 18, 2011 by The Orange Mailman

The first view presented in Three Views on the Rapture is the Pretrib view.  Many know Craig Blaising from his work within Progressive Dispensationalism.  I must say that Blaising presents a better case for the pretrib view than I have … Continue reading →

With all the buzz about Rob Bell’s new book, I thought I would come at this from another vantage point.  I will not be buying the book and I don’t recommend it either.  What Rob Bell has inadvertantly done is … Continue reading →

Posted on March 16, 2011 by The Orange Mailman

I have just finished Zondervan’s latest edition of Three Views on The Rapture, subtitled Pretribulation, Prewrath, or Posttribulation.  I set aside my other reading (The Coming Millennial Kingdom) and blogged a little less in order to get through this book.  … Continue reading →

Everlasting Dominion

Posted on March 14, 2011 by The Orange Mailman

I occasionally do these “where is it found in the Bible” type posts as a kind of poking fun at the “who said that” type things that other people do.  It seems that our culture is fixated on knowing what … Continue reading →

Resource on the 144,000

Posted on March 12, 2011 by The Orange Mailman

I came across an article on the 144,000 from Revelation 7:1-8 & 14:1-5.  I have taken a little flack for some of my views even from people who agree with me about many other things.  The thing that people usually … Continue reading →
