David Forsyth continues his examination of the pretribulational rapture doctrine, presenting five additional biblical reasons supporting this eschatological position. The pretribulational rapture view suggests that the tribulation period primarily serves Jewish purposes, preparing Israel to receive its Messiah and enter the new covenant. This perspective allows for mortal believers to populate the millennial kingdom and accounts for Christ's promise in John 14:1-3 to prepare a place for His followers.
Furthermore, the pretribulational rapture provides adequate time for the Bema seat judgment of the church while explaining the notable silence regarding the church in Revelation 6-19. Through careful examination of prophetic terminology and biblical passages, Forsyth builds a comprehensive case that the church will be delivered before the seven-year tribulation period begins, offering believers comfort and hope in Christ's imminent return.
