Prewrath... 15 Years and Beyond - Rosenthal

Marvin Rosenthal delivered the keynote address at the 2008 Prewrath Conference in Orlando in January, which was excellent. He tells his story of coming to the conviction of Prewrath from Pretribulationism, and where we have come in 15 years. In addition, Rosenthal gives an exhortation for the Church to get serious with the Biblical truth of possibly our generation facing the persecution of Antichrist. Towards the end, Rosenthal talks about an interesting saga of a Zondervan book on the rapture that was supposed to be published over a year ago! He finishes with noting that there has been believers throughout Church history who, though they never called it "Prewrath," nevertheless affirmed its fundamental teaching.

Opening Comments from the 2008 Orlando Prewrath Conference

In the next few weeks I will be posting audio from this past year's conference on the Prewrath Radio Program here. Not all the audio is superior quality, and some of it did not pass muster particularly the Revelation and Thessalonian sessions; nevertheless, most of it is audible so we will be posting them in the ensuing weeks. The audio for the opening comments is the shortest of them all but we thought you may like it.

The Battle of Armageddon Occurs Thirty Days After the Conclusion of Daniel's Seventieth Week

It has been assumed in traditional eschatological writings and discussions that the battle of Armageddon unfolds at the end of the "70th week of Daniel." This wrong conclusion resulted from a misunderstanding of the timing of Antichrist's destruction, the last trumpet and the bowls in Revelation, as well as ignoring Daniel's teaching that there is a 75 day period that follows after the 7 years. This 75-day time frame is divided into a 30 day period followed by a 45 day period.

11 And from the time that the regular burnt offering is taken away and the abomination that makes desolate is set up, there shall be 1,290 days. 12 Blessed is he who waits and arrives at the 1,335 days. 13 But go your way till the end. And you shall rest and shall stand in your allotted place at the end of the days." Daniel 12:11-13

This 75 day period has important events unfolding within it, including the battle of Armageddon happening 30 days into it. Follow Charles Cooper here as he exegetically demonstrates this.
