"For I will keep you from the hour of trial that will come upon the whole earth" (Rev. 3:10). For the pretrib rapture view, this is the foundational verse that underpins the entire view. But does this verse really teach that the church will be raptured before the great tribulation? If not, what does the removal of this verse from the discussion do to the scholarly support for this widely held view? It devastates it. In these pages, Charles Cooper of The Prewrath Rapture Institute (and author of God's Elect and the Great Tribulation and Fight, Flight, or Faith deep dives this fascinating topic. First, he lays out the importance of Revelation 3:10 in the words of today's most renowned pretribulation proponents. Then he systematically dismantles the argument piece by piece, relying heavily on insights from a little known but critical voice in the rapture debate. In the end, a thorough and honest look at the Scriptures results in a bombshell conclusion that will forever change the way you look at Revelation 3:10 and the timing of the second coming.
