Jesus Returns The Way He Left eBook

Jesus must return the way He left based on Acts 1:9-11, which is to the Mt. of Olives (v. 12) on the ground. The dispensational rapture of the elect, in the sky, is not until after the great tribulation as evident with Revelation 7:9-17.This is a premillennial position based on three, chronologically different, dispensational (not partial, though whole) raptures first presented in 2021 withBeyond Prewrath End-Time Prophecy. They are supported with the theophanies of Revelation 8:5 for the elect, 11:19 for the Jewish people, and 16:18 for the "sheep."

  The first two represent the faith-based dispensational groups of the one bride of Christ who together attend the bema' (Rev. 11:18), though were chronologically taken separately with the presence of God eschatological theophanies in Revelation 8:5 and 11:19. Most, if not all, dispensational theology scholars only recognize two distinct peoples of God: Israel and the Church.

  The third dispensational group, people of God, is the "sheep" from the goat and sheep judgment of Matthew 25:31-46. The goats are separated from the sheep based on works (vv. 35-36), though they later become faith-based as evident with verse 46. They seem to represent the mortal subjects who are reigned over during the millennial reign of Jesus on earth.

  Chapter 3 discusses seven problems with the pretribulation. Chapters 5 and 6 discuss seven problems with the prewrath.

  Chapters 7 to 12 explore various topics including the three battles of Ezekiel 38 and 39, Israel's three-part journey during the second half of the seventieth week, the lack of overlap among seals and trumpets, the Antichrist and the restrainer, endurance and faith, and definitions related to the beyond prewrath perspective.
