The Second Coming of Jesus - Paperback

by John Ehrlich (Author)

All Christians believe that Jesus will come again, but there is much disagreement concerning the manner of His coming again. Why must Jesus come again? What is accomplished when He comes again? Is it complicated or simple? Is there a "secret rapture" which precedes His return or does it all occur in one day? What is the great tribulation? What is the Millennium? Is Revelation a prerecorded history of the tribulation period, or is it something else entirely different? Should the church use obscure and ambiguous passages to define and interpret clear passages of Scripture? What did Jesus have to say about His second coming? What did Paul teach? Did they teach the same things or was it different? These questions and more are answered directly from the Word of God using verses that cannot possibly be misunderstood unless done so deliberately in order to preserve and protect the systematic theology one has been taught. Prayerful and careful study of Scripture has absolutely convinced the author of the error of the popular "rapture" teaching concerning the second coming of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. This book is not an in depth analysis of prophecy, but it is a brief examination of some of the truths the author has culled from historical accounts and has discerned from Scripture through many years of study. The author holds a D.Min degree from Covington Theological Seminary. He was the pastor of the fastest growing church in New Hampshire in 1985, being recognized as such by Liberty University. He is no longer pastoring full time, but ministers in RV parks during the winter season in Naples, FL. He has authored three other books which have yet to be published.
