For the sake of this writing, I will assume there is a rapture of God’s saints before the tribulation; and I will find contradictions in the Word of Truth, assuming this, to prove the doctrine is false; for we know God’s Word is true:
So if there be a rapture of God’s saints before the tribulation, then there will be another rapture when Christ comes for the remainder; but the Scriptures say, “For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord.“ [1 Thessalonians 4:15-17] So the saints in Christ, alive and dead, will be caught up together with Christ at His appearance, without one proceeding the other, according to the Word of Truth in Paul. But the Pre-Tribulation rapture suggests there are two separate raptures, one preceding the other; so we have reached a contradiction against God’s Word, thereby proving it false, for God’s Word is true.
For God’s dealing with man has not changed; He did not rescue Israel out of Egypt before He sent the plagues — no. Rather, they were set apart from the plagues, then He poured out His wrath on the Egyptians; they were spared, but Egypt was harmed. Likewise the Psalmist says, “A thousand may fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand, but it shall not approach you. You will only look on with your eyes and see the recompense of the wicked.“ [Psalms 91:7-8] Is this not what the Revelation says, "Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees until we have sealed the bond-servants of our God on their foreheads.“ [Revelation 7:3] So they were sealed, not taken out before the time; just as God dealt previously, so He will deal in the end; as Isaiah says, “Let them bring forth and declare to us what is going to take place; As for the former events, declare what they were, That we may consider them and know their outcome. Or announce to us what is coming;“ [41:22] For these things which happened are testimonies to future events.
“Ah! But there are so few in the end, even 144,000”, you may say; “However, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?” [Luke 18:8] “Ah, but they are of Israel!”, you may also think; “But he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that which is of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter; and his praise is not from men, but from God.” [Romans 2:29] Is not a vision spiritual? Then why would Israel be physical? And is not the Book of Revelation a vision which the apostle wrote down? Is he then speaking of physical Jacob or spiritual Israel?
Does not the antichrist arise and perform his will against God’s saints? As it says, “he will destroy to an extraordinary degree and prosper and perform his will; he will destroy mighty men and the holy people.” [Daniel 8:24] And also it says, “As soon as they finish shattering the power of the holy people, all these events will be completed“ [Daniel 12:7] And finally, “It was also given to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them, and authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation was given to him.“ [Revelation 13:7] But if God’s saints are no more, because they are taken, who does he come against?
So, “Through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God” [Acts 14:22] And, “if indeed we suffer with [Him] so that we may also be glorified with [Him.]“ [Romans 8:17] And even, “It is a trustworthy statement: For if we died with Him, we will also live with Him;” [2 Timothy 2:11] And, “The gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.“ [Matthew 7:14] So we see that the Father has ordained that we enter into the Kingdom only by pressing through a narrow place, that of affliction and tribulation for Jesus’ sake, if we be counted worthy. But the Pre-Tribulation rapture suggests not suffering later, then if not later, why now? So you see every false doctrine promotes a false agenda.
