Today, the hope that all believers on earth will be “caught up” to heaven is being challenged in new waves of criticism. Is the rapture actually taught in the Bible? Can we really expect Jesus to gather up His followers before the antichrist is revealed?

In this well-reasoned and thorough defense, prophecy authors Ed Hindson and Mark Hitchcock examine the concept, context, and consequences of the important and long-expected event known as the rapture. Discover the answers to such questions as…

• What is the rapture -- and is there any historical precedent for it?
• Why do some Christians object to the idea of a rapture?
• Does the timing of the rapture really make a difference?

As you explore what Scripture says about the end times, you’ll get a grander glimpse of your glorious future and the deepest hope of every follower of Jesus.

God tells us to take heed “to doctrine” (1 Tim.4:13). Doctrine is important. Today even Christians take unbiblical stances merely because they’re popular. Yet God’s Word is true and unchanging. The Friends of Israel’s doctrine is the same today as it was in 1938, when this ministry was founded.

This booklet captures the Bible’s basic tenets. As you read through it, you’ll see we hold the gospel of Jesus Christ as a paramount and essential teaching. You’ll also see that Jesus’ First Advent was merely part of God’s greater and glorious plan to redeem all of creation.

Israel is woven throughout the Bible’s unfolding story. Yet many Christians struggle to understand how God’s promises to Abraham and his descendants relate to Jesus Christ, the church, and the future. Trace Israel’s calling, mission, struggles, and future restoration across the whole of Scripture. Beginning with the Abrahamic Covenant, Michael Vlach walks through why Israel is not a minor theme or a temporary stage in God’s redemptive plan. He shows how God brings salvation to the world through Israel’s Messiah while remaining faithful to His promises to the nation itself. When you understand Israel’s place in the Bible, you gain a richer understanding of Scripture and a deeper confidence in the God who always keeps His promises.
