The Rapture - A Fresh Look at Its Biblical Premise

Dr. Tim LaHAye, Bible prophecy student and co-author of the Left Behind series has reviewed this book and writes:'The next major international event on the prophetic calendar of God is the rapture of His church from this world to heaven. All those who believe in the sacrificial death for their sins on the Cross of Calvary, His bodily resurrection, and their personal commitment to Him by faith will respond to His resurrection call when He comes again. The Bible is very clear on that.The Rapture is an able defense of that time honored teaching and will bring much assurance and "hope" to those concerned about the otherwise frightening events prophecies for the end times.I share Capt. Layton's concern that everyone read this book and be spiritually prepared for the rapture event so they will not be left behind.God bless you and keep up the good work!'With foreword by Commissioner William W.
