The Rapture of the Bride

    For a long time now I have desired to write a book on end-time events, but busyness both in ministry and in daily life have prevented this vision from becoming concrete reality.

      However, events over the last few years have stirred me to commit myself to putting finger to computer keyboard and to begin this task.  A massive earthquake in my wife’s country in late 2019 in which many people were killed; unprecedented and widespread wildfires in Australia; the political convulsions and instability of the Brexit process, followed by widespread flooding in UK; continually broken records in many countries with regard to climate and weather phenomena; the extension of abortion laws in some places to include third-trimester terminations; the onward strides of artificial intelligence and the transhumanist movement; the worldwide Covid-19 pandemic; the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East; the desire of the growing ID2020 Alliance to develop a secure and private personal digital ID which aims to contain details of a person’s financial and health records; the anticipated development of CBDCs; and the calls by two British ex-Prime Ministers to develop some form of global governance to deal with the pandemic crisis, are all either so-called ‘signs of the times’ or precursors which are leading up to the end-times scenario which the word of God speaks of.

      We have entered into a phase of human history in which what the Bible teaches regarding the events of the end of this age is coming true right before our eyes.  The Bible is as relevant today as it has ever been, and this present generation of believers is privileged to live in these times, and to be able to observe what is clearly unfolding before us.  So it is my conviction that believers need to prepare themselves for what is coming, and, by continuing to observe events as they happen in the world, they can be ready for the coming of the Lord for his bride, the believing church.  He is coming very soon!

      This book in its present form deals with the rapture which is the next great event prophesied in the Scriptures which will happen to the believing worldwide Body of Christ.  In time, I hope to expand it to include many other aspects of end-time events, so developing a much fuller picture of what is ahead.  This book argues for a pre-tribulation rapture of the bride of Christ, for the many reasons which are given within its pages.  My desire is not to create controversy with those who may believe differently, but rather to simply present my own convictions on this matter.

      May the Lord bless you and strengthen your faith in Christ as you read these pages, and may what you read help you to prepare yourself for the soon coming of the Lord!
