As plain as the nose on your face, this book lays out what will really happen at Christ's return. I attend a church where the pre-trib rapture theory is believed and taught, but I have always been convicted that there was really more to it. I have studied regarding the second coming of Christ, believing that Christians will be here through the so-called tribulation period, and felt that it was plainly there in black and white telling us just that. After reading this book, I can now explain it just a little bit better, as Wohlberg lays it out so well, explaining verses and more indepth details than I was able to put together. I hope that more Christians will be convicted to pick up his book and study it for themselves. The book is so easy to understand, and so interesting, that I read it in just a short time one evening. I recommend it to all Christians, especially those who have convictions regarding Christ's second coming.

Steve Wohlberg states in the Introduction to this brief book, "The purpose of this book is to take a closer look at what God's Word says about the Rapture and the Antichrist. We want to find out whether any significant Bible truth has been left behind."

Here are some quotations from the book:

"In BOTH Matthew 24:30, 31 and in 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17, we read about clouds, noise, a trumpet, a gathering together, and believers being transported up into the air... The conclusion is inescapable, and irrefutable. True believers will be 'caught up' or 'raptured' at the loud, climactic, highly-visible, and ultra-glorious Second Coming of Jesus Christ!" (Pg. 20)
"Does Daniel 9:27 apply to a future seven year period of Tribulation, or was it fulfilled by Jesus Christ 2000 years ago?... God's Word says, 'And he shall confirm the COVENANT with MANY.' Now take a look at this. Jesus Christ Himself said, 'For this is my blood of the new COVENANT, which is shed for MANY (Matthew 26:28). Behold a perfect fit!" (Pg. 32)
"Jesuit Futurism originated with the Roman Catholic Church, which makes it the very doctrine of the Antichrist! And when Christian ministries and movies ... proclaim an Antichrist who comes only after the Rapture, what are they really doing? ... They are sincerely and yet unknowingly teaching the doctrine of the Antichrist!" (Pg. 74)

Wohlberg has also written End Time Delusions.

I had a friend give me this book. I remember how plain it set forth things that I always had questions about. The history involved proves to me just how accurate the Bible is. For so long I read the Left Behind books, and that was my understanding of the end times and the Anti-Christ. I wish the book were cheaper, I would buy more for sharing. This book is a must read for anyone, but especially Christians with a desire to know more about the end times. The left behind doctrine has, is, and will cause many to be unprepared for the events that will take place on this earth.

This book was an easy read. I read it in two sittings. It is straight and to the point. It is not overwhelming in size. I definitely recommend. He also has other great resources that are important. Here is a link to his website at [...]

Mr Wohlberg has written a book that clearly exposes the errors of the Left Behind fictional books and movie.He shows that there is no pre-trib rapture.It's not a secret rapture either.Reading this book has led me to consider the historicist view as opposed to the futurist view of Revelation.Reading the Bible in context and studying Daniel(7:25 in particular)with Revelation from a historical standpoint confirms for me that Mr. Wohlberg may be "on point" with this book.He has taken apart the the theories of the Left Behind series without slandering the evangelists behind the books and all the while basing his theory on the Bible!

This is an awesome book describing the truth about left behind. I am convinced and do believe it will happend based on the Word of God, and not like what has been advertised on the Left Behind Series which has been sold to millions of people around the world. This author bases everything upon bible scripture which shed the light on the truth behind the "Left Behind Deception." I am so glad I made this purchase because I wanted to know the truth. This truth will not be hidden, the truth will be seen by every eye in the clouds, the dead in Christ will rise first, then those who are left and remain shall be caught up to go meet our Lord in the air. The writer also points out that when Jesus left this earth and acending into the clouds (after He was risen from the dead), HIS garments were not immediate left behind as oppose to what the Left Behind Series had been teaching or advertising to the people. Remember when Christ was on Cross and the Romans gambled for HIS clothing. Christ acension is a symbol of how HIS people will be gathered to meet HIM in the air at HIS Seconding Coming. Everyone has to make a choice either serve GOD and inherit eternal life or serve the devil and receive his mark and perish. Read your bible stick to the Words that God wrote. Prove every spirit according to the WORD of GOD! Because the WORD of GOD stands alone! Amen! :)))
