Unmasking the Rapture: Separating Prophecy from Deception

from Contending For The Faith Hosted by Bishop Ronald D. Roston

Hosts Bishop Ronald and Bishop LaCreece Roston examine Matthew 24 and challenge the modern idea of a secret pre-tribulation rapture, arguing the Bible describes a single visible return of Messiah. They trace the doctrine's historical development from Jesuit interventions to 19th-century popularizers like Darby and Schofield, and discuss theological implications for salvation and the Great Tribulation. The episode invites listeners to think critically about end-times interpretations, explore related scriptures, and continue the conversation through the hosts' books and future podcast segments.
