Was the Pre-Trib Rapture Invented by Darby & the Rothschilds? (John Rich on Tucker Carlson)
Country singer John Rich recently went on The Tucker Carlson Show to discuss his new song, Revelation, although the seeming majority of the time was spent attacking the pretrib Rapture. Rich made a number of bold statements and claims, including advocating that the pretrib rapture is a lie that originated in the 1800's from John Darby, who he also says was connected with the Rothschilds. He further attacks the study notes of the Scofield Reference Bible, which also take a pretrib view.
Are these claims (and others) accurate? Mike joins Bruce Davis on the In Awe by Bruce podcast to discuss and critique the accuracy of John Rich's statements on this subject.

Was Nimrod the First Pharaoh of Egypt? (Part 4)
One of the great mysteries of the Bible is the identity of Nimrod, the character mentioned in early Genesis who is often credited with building the Tower of Babel. Despite only being mentioned several times in scripture, he is notoriously recognized as one of the greatest villains in biblical history, and even as the first prototype of the future Antichrist figure.
But the major question surrounds his actual historical identity. Is there any evidence that Nimrod was an actual historical figure, as the Bible claims? If so, who is he? Is there anyone whose exploits actually reflect what the Bible says about Nimrod? Of course, surely a person as notorious as Nimrod would be identifiable in history, if he was truly a real, historical character, as the Bible seems to present him as. There should be some memory of him preserved as an actual historical king, not just a mythical figure.
As we’ll find in these videos, it actually does seem that we’re able to positively identify who Nimrod actually was. Although we can’t be 1,000% sure about this, I’m going to present to you the reasons why I’m convinced that we can positively identify Nimrod!

Interview: Biblical Imminence - Sudden, Signless, Unpredictable
Is the Rapture predictable? Are Church Age believers instructed to watch for end-time signs that give information about the nearness of the Rapture? Do such signs even exist? Would the ability to determine the nearness of these things provide any positive benefit for a Christian? What does the New Testament say about this? Mike returns to join Bruce Davis on the In Awe by Bruce Podcast to discuss these questions.

The Olivet Discourse - Deciphering the Dilemma
Jesus's famous Olivet Discourse is a teaching that has puzzled generations of commentators. But in order for us to have a precise understanding of end-times Bible prophecy, it is essential to have a good understanding of this discourse. Many have argued about whether or not this discourse focuses on Israel exclusively, or if it includes anything that relates to the Church. And if it does concern the Church in any way, does is refer at all to the Rapture of the Church? If so, where? And is it a pretribulational Rapture? The key to all of these questions is "context!" Once we understand the context, these questions will answer themselves.

Are We Told To Watch For End-Time Signs?
What does the New Testament actually mean when it tells believers to "watch" in eschatological contexts? Does it mean watching for "end-time signs" in order to predict the nearness of the Rapture and the end-times, as we've often been told? Join us for a teaching on the biblical meaning of watching for the return of Jesus.

The Vultures and the Carcasses
Luke 17:34-36 has caused many to come to a misunderstanding of the true context of certain passages within Jesus's similar teaching in the Olivet Discourse. In this Lukan passage, Jesus's mention of one being "taken" and one being "left" is immediately followed by a question posed by the disciples: "Where, Lord?" To which Jesus responds: "Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together." - an obvious reference to judgment. Because of this, many interpret Jesus's foregoing statement about one "taken" to mean that they are "taken in judgment," rather than being taken in Rapture (as many have understood that passage). But as we've demonstrated in past videos, the clear context of Jesus's statement about one taken and one left refers to the separation of the righteous and the wicked at the BEGINNING of the Parousia. Yet, this passage in Luke would seem to indicate otherwise. What is the truth here?

The Parousia - Rapture or Second Coming?
Another important term in Biblical eschatology that is often either overlooked or not sharply defined is the Greek word "Parousia," normally translated as "coming" in our English Bibles. Since this term is used so frequently in passages that refer to the end-times, it is crucial that we have a solid understanding of it. The only way we can do that is by recognizing how the Bible actually uses with term, and therefore how we must understand it. Does it apply to the Rapture or the Second Coming? We will examine that in this video.

Apostasy and Antichrist - Before the Rapture or After?
2 Thessalonians 2:2-3 appears on the surface in some English translations (especially the KJV) to imply that the apostasy and the revelation of the Antichrist PRECEDE the Rapture of the Church. If this is true, it contradicts the persistent message of the New Testament regarding Christ's signless and imminent coming since these two events would act as prerequisite signs. There are also those who interpret the "apostasy" (or "departure") as a reference to the Rapture (a "spiritual departure"). What is the truth about this? What is Paul actually conveying here? Join us as we discuss this often misunderstood passage!

The Fig Tree Fallacy
In recent decades, a particular interpretation of Jesus's parabolic mention of the "fig tree" in His Olivet Discourse has become popular. This view associates the return of national Israel as a state in 1948 with the fig tree spoken of by Jesus. In combination with His other statements in those verses, the common claim is that Jesus was saying that the Rapture or Second Coming must take place within one generation of the re-establishment of Israel as a nation in 1948. This has given rise to much speculation concerning the biblical length of a generation. Although around 75 years has passed since 1948, this view is still popular, and has spawned a seemingly endless stream of Rapture date-setting schemes and speculations (all of which, of course, have failed).
Is this really what Jesus was teaching when He used the example of the fig tree in this discourse? What signs did He point to? What generation was He speaking of? What was His context? Is this "fig tree fallacy" interpretation the result of the careful application of a literal/plain hermeneutic? We examine all of these questions in this video!

Are We Seeing the Birth Pangs?
The Bible speaks about "birth pangs" that will be felt near the times of the Messiah's comings. Are we feeling and witnessing those birth pangs signs today, leading us to believe that we are in the end-times and that Jesus's coming is near - as many modern Bible prophecy teachers claim? What does the Bible actually say about this?

What Is the Sign of Jonah?
On April 8th 2024, a total solar eclipse will occur and will follow a path across the United States. Many have claimed that the path will go through cities named after prominent biblical names and concepts like Nineveh, Salem, and Rapture. Many have gone on to notice that when combined with the path of the 2017 eclipse, these two eclipse pathways form an "X" across America. There have then been different interpretations of this "X". Some take it to be a reference to the Rapture, which many are predicting will happen on this day. Others believe it reveals coming judgment on America. Many have connected the eclipse with Jesus's statement about the "sign of Jonah" in Matthew 12. What is the truth about this? What is the sign of Jonah in the biblical context? Can it refer to an event today?

What Is the Day of the Lord?
There exists much confusion today concerning the biblical phrase "the Day of the Lord." What does this term mean? Is it a synonym of the Tribulation? Does the Day of the Lord start when the Tribulation starts? Does it start before the Tribulation? Or, is it just the climactic Second Coming at the end of the Tribulation? Does it actually also include the Millennium? How does the Bible apply this multi-nuanced term? We will answer all of these questions and much more in this video.

Is There A Post-Rapture Gap?
How is it that the Bible clearly describes the Rapture of the Church as an imminent, signless, and unpredictable event - yet also describes the beginning of the broad period of the Day of the Lord in this exact way? How can both of these end-time events truly be imminent? If one were to occur first, then logically, the other could not be described as "imminent." Similarly, how is it that the New Testament consistently portrays the rescue of the righteous as coinciding with the beginning of judgment for the wicked, with both being described as imminent?
Can it be that there is a simple biblical paradigm that, when consistently applied, easily clarifies these apparent dilemmas - one that most modern scholars have somehow overlooked? Can it harmonize all of the difficult and seemingly contradictory end-time Bible passages that have perplexed readers for generations? In this video, I present this "missing key" paradigm - the topic of my new book - a comprehensive, first-of-its-kind study!
