One of the most important questions that you can answer is, are you ready for the Rapture?

Stick around to find program today. My name is Mando Gonzalez, and I have the privilege of being in here with Billy Cron. Welcome, Billy.

Hey, Mando. Thanks for having me. It's good. We've been having a good time, Billy and I talking, and Billy has just come out with a new series. You've done a lot on the rapture in the past, but you've come out with this new series, really, with the question. Yeah. Are you ready for the rapture? Yeah. And so in some ways, you know, you and I have talked off camera just in the way the rapture is kind of a dirty word in some Christian areas, which is fine. We love our brothers and

sisters anyway who disagree with us. But how is this particular series different than what you've

done in the past? Well, this is definitely the most up-to-date, most expanded one that we've ever

done. You're basically looking at all together on the DVDs, about 20 hours of systematic study on the rapture, starting from the very scratch that does it even appear in the Bible? Is it even a biblical concept? And then why does the Bible talk about the rapture? What's the purpose of the rapture? And then of course what happens at the rapture, you know, the reward. Is it a good thing?

Yeah, it is. Of course. You go to heaven, the millennial kingdom, the new heavens,

new earth. Nobody has a brighter future than we, the church. And then, okay, well, then the big issue is,

okay, what about the timing of the rapture? And so we deal with that aspect. And then as we began to,

obviously, study the scripture, I'm convinced that the Bible supports

a pre-trib scenario, that the church leads pre-pri prior to the seven-year tribulation.

And so we begin to deal with that.

Then, of course, not everybody agrees with that position in the church today.

So I cataloged as many different accusations against the pre-trib, answered every single one,

tit for tap. And dare I say, a lot of them are just red herring arguments, circular reasoning.

And so we, but we took the time to answer that, logically, biblically, exhaustively.

And then I said, well, okay, so now we've had my position that I believe the scripture supports the pre-trib position under the microscope. Let's take a look at yours. And so that's what we did. And we flipped it around chronologically, started at the very end. You got the post-trib position that we dealt with with three whole studies on that, and that's that people believe the church is going post all the way through the seven-year tribulation. Then you got the pre-rath position. We dealt with two whole studies on that and that's that people believe the church is going post all the way through the seven-year tribulation.

Then you got the pre-rath position.

We dealt with two whole studies on that. Basically what's called the three-quarters rapture position from our timeline. You know, if you say that, they say, oh, so you don't understand it. It's not three, from our timeline, you're basically saying three-quarters all the way through. then the mid-trib position, and we dealt with something that we've

never dealt before in massive detail in any of our other studies, and that's the partial rapture

position, and that's only the super-duper saints, the super-duper Christians get to go at the rapture,

and it's your suffering in the seven-year tribulations. It's going to make you worthy and cleanse you an acceptable bride.
