A prophesied storm of persecution in the end-times is swiftly approaching the righteous. Pretribulation proponents, particularly prevalent in the U.S., assert that the church will be spared from this persecution. But what if they are mistaken? Would you risk staking your life on such a firm belief, especially when Daniel 9:24 indicates that the entire seventieth week is necessary ‘to seal up vision and prophecy’? This suggests that absolute certainty in any rapture chronology is unwarranted, yet many churches incorporate it into their doctrine, stifling open discussion of alternative views within the context of Daniel’s seventieth week. As Jesus said in John 16:33, ‘In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.’
Acts 1:11 affirms that Jesus ‘will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven, ‘ departing from the Mount of Olives (verse 12). When considered alongside other supporting Scriptures, the day of Jesus’s return from heaven to earth is placed at the midpoint of the seventieth week of Daniel, though not for a rapture event.
