Part 6 – A Response to “The Uncertainty of the Timing of the Rapture”

by Alan Kurschner

I am continuing my response to Pastor Bob DeWaay. He asserts:

“Prophecy is not given in chronological order in the Bible. You need to know that.”

We have made a case that the Bible does indeed emphatically contain prophetic chronological material in Matthew 24, Thessalonians, and Revelation.
There are other prophetic passages in the Bible that contain chronological information, but I want to mention two final texts in Daniel that are incredibly insightful. I direct the reader to this article on page 3 of the section entitled “An Overview of Daniel 7.” One will observe a consistency with Revelation’s teaching.
The second text is Daniel 12:1-3. Again, note the consistency with the Olivet Discourse: Great Tribulation followed by the resurrection.
I find it ironic the DeWaay talks about a “composite” for eschatological events. Yet, he is not able to see the most conspicuous, consistent composite in Scripture of a basic eschatological framework: (1) Antichrist’s Revelation (midpoint) (2) Antichrist’s Great Tribulation against God’s People (3) The Resurrection-Rapture (4) The Day of the Lord’s Wrath (5) The Reclamation of God’s Kingdom on Earth.
And one will search in vain for a pretrib rapture that occurs before # 1.
