Bible Prophecy Daily

In this session, Charles Cooper concludes his defense for rejecting the dominant views on the timing of the rapture. He delineates why he is convinced that the synthetic view of the timing of the rapture best explains the textual details in Scripture. Taking the strengths of the Pre-, Mid-, and Post-trib positions and adding the defining straight of the PreWrath position, Cooper sets forth the four pillars that must undergird the correct rapture position.

Cooper insists that if his position is viable, one must see in the Revelation About Christ a significant gathering of God’s people to heaven near the beginning of God’s eschatological wrath on earth. Seven passages in Revelation may support an indirect reference to the rapture: Revelation 3:10; 4:1-2; 7:9-17; 11:11-19; 12:1-5; 14:14-16; and 19:11-20:4. Each passage has been espoused by at least one of the dominant rapture positions.

Jake McCandless continues his series, "Prophetic Lessons from Covid". In this series Jake reflects on the Covid-19 pandemic and the faith fallout with it, seeing it as a “test run” or “shot across the bow”. For those tracking in Bible prophecy before the pandemic they had the unique experience of being warned, being called to try to warn, and then seeing it come to pass in some way. Very few prophetic voices have been able to see such a hint of what they were warned about come to pass. It’s time we reflect on the possible prophetic lessons from that time.

What lessons can be learned prophetically from covid?

This episode is for watchmen or watchwomen who not only track Bible prophecy and its unfolding, but who also help others prepare. Due to what they see being fulfilled, most watchmen feel the end of the age is soon upon us. How the events of Covid took a reprieve and didn’t usher in The End should teach us that prophetic events won’t happen as soon as we think. For one generation it will, but not for all. Watchmen need to keep the urgency, but balance it with God’s patience.

Marquis Laughlin examines the Apostle Peter’s understanding of the Last Days. What can we learn from Peter’s dramatic change in perspective when it comes to the last days and the timing of Jesus’ return? What mistakes did Peter make in his initial understanding that we can learn from and avoid? What insight into the Old Testament does Peter share with us about God’s plan for mankind and the timing of the return and reign of Jesus?

Chris White starts a new study about the beasts found in the books of Daniel and Revelation.

Take your Bibles and turn to Daniel 7, Revelation 12-13 and Revelation 17 for this interesting study.

Travis Snow discusses the popular view that the Rapture will bring the Feast of Trumpets to its prophetic fulfillment.  Travis also offers new insights into the historical significance of this festival, and how it points forward to events in the millennial kingdom.

For further study about Travis' discussion, you can read his recently published book The Biblical Feasts and the Return of Jesus.

Ron Wallace discusses the scene in heaven, when the Apostle John's is taken there by a vision in 96 AD.  John is shown symbols of who is there, and what is being done in preparation for the future.

Ron also discusses the shortcomings of the Revelation 4:1 rapture theory.

Nelson Walters tackles one of the more challenging aspects of predictive prophecy in this episode: what the role of the Feast of Trumpets might be in the future.

If you follow Christian media, the idea that Jesus might return on a Feast of Trumpets (Yom Teruah in Hebrew) is a hot topic. Some even say it could be this Feast of Trumpets. Nelson answers that aspect of the question definitively in this podcast. He also tackles the role the Feasts of the Lord, or Mo’edim, play in prophecy, and why so many of Jesus’ parables and illustrations involve his returning at night.

In this session, Charles Cooper begins a study of the Book of Revelation with the intent to determine which passage most likely evidences the timing of the rapture. In this introductory session, Cooper explains that the correct view is a synthetic view that adopts the biblically defensible truths taken from the three dominant views of previously held rapture positions, i.e., Pre-, Mid-, and Posttribulationism.

Cooper highlights the pros and cons of each rapture position, which have prevented each position from becoming the single majority view.

Marquis Laughlin examines what the Apostle Peter learned and taught about the Last Days. The Apostle Peter may have been the one person who looked forward to Christ’s Kingdom the most. Known as “the Apostle of Hope”, his view of the timing and nature of the coming reign of Christ changed dramatically as he came into a deeper knowledge of God. Peter reminds us to not forget “this one fact” when it comes to the timing of the Lord’s return. Unfortunately, this “one fact” is something the modern church rarely teaches and has largely forgotten.
