"The Rapture Plot" is a very detailed book written after extensive research by Dave MacPherson. He uses numerous writings from the late 1820's up to the date of this book(1994).

There is no doubt that the pre-trib rapture hoax originated with Margaret MacDonald and was preached first by Edward Irving before Darby.

The contortions of Scripture used throughout history to attempt to somehow authenticate pre-trib rapture are examined.

Some of the phrases and the all too popular "symbolism" are also detailed.
A few examples would be the notion that the "man-child" of Revelation 12:5 is the "mystical body of Christ"(Yahushua);the Church. Another extreme use of symbolism is the idea that when John was beckoned "come up hither" it was an invitation to the Church. MacPherson also wrote about the error that any prophecy that hadn't been fulfilled regarding Israel,Judah,Jerusalem,or Zion should be assigned in a figurative and spiritual sense to the Church.

What Dave MacPherson does so well in "The Rapture Plot" is detail the written history of the pre-trib theory and the evolution of thought by some of the larger figures,especially John Darby and even some of today's writers.
I highly recommend this book!!

5.0 out of 5 stars "Left Behind" series may eventually have to retire to the fiction section of the library., March 9, 2008

This review is from: The Rapture Plot (Paperback)

At last, evangelical Christians are beginning to question this relatively new doctrine in church history, which has no foundation in the Word of God. Due to the meticulous research by the very capable author, this error has at last been exposed. God bless Dave MacPherson for shining the light of truth on this mythical doctrine.
