Because I think it is pertinent I will be sharing resources utilized in my own study of the "Rapture." I didn't realize it when I began studying this particular topic; but, there are many variations regarding the timing of the "Rapture" and the Second Coming of Christ. The main positions are acknowledged below.
- PreTribulation Rapture
- Mid Tribulation Rapture
- Post Tribulation Rapture
- Pre-Wrath
- Amillenialism
- Preterism
Some of the books I personally recommend on this topic are:
Here are some other resources:
- Alan Kurschner.com (LINK)
- Charles Cooper
- Revelation Commentary.org
- PreWrath Ministries.org (LINK)
One of the most influential pieces was a simple study published by Robert Van Kampen's daughter Kristen Wisen. Here is the study below along with a link so you can download her study.
