What did Left Behind leave behind?
Christians are expecting to “vanish with a poof” in an event called “The Rapture” before things on Earth get too bad and the evil Antichrist shows up.
“No, they won’t,” warns TV producer, radio host and bestselling author of 24 books Steve Wohlberg in his latest work, The Rapture Delusions: Exposing Dangerous Errors about the End of the World (Destiny Image).
“Look carefully,” notes Wohlberg, “all New Testament verses quoted to promote the secret rapture doctrine–1 Thessalonians 4:17; 1 Corinthians 15:52; Matthew 24:40—don’t teach it at all. They really apply to the highly visible, loud, earthshaking Second Coming of Jesus Christ, and not to the novel and unbiblical notion of ‘disappearing Christians’ seven years before the end.”
Based on thirty years of biblical and historical research that has formed the basis of numerous television series (End Time Delusions, Antichrist Chronicles, Time of Trouble Talks), Wohlberg contends:
The "Rapture idea" was unknown among Christian theologians for 1800 years. It originated "around the year 1830" in England during "a time of charismatic revival" connected with the London-based ministry of Presbyterian minister Edward Irving.
It was popularized by British theologian John Nelson Darby, further promoted by the famous Scofield Reference Bible in the early 1900s, was given wings at the Dallas Theological Seminary, and then finally “brought to the masses” by Hal Lindsey, Jack Van Impe, Tim LaHaye, and Grant Jeffrey.
“Not only is it gross error,” argues Wohlberg, “but it can easily breed deadly spiritual laziness among those who, assuming they will disappear before the trouble starts, neglect their personal preparation to stand for Jesus Christ in the difficult days ahead.”
Some people believe that they’ll be gone before the Seven-Year Tribulationbegins!” Does the Bible really teach this popular myth? If you have been taught this idea,then TV producer, radio host, and bestselling author of 24 books Steve Wohlberg has shocking information you should know. Find out the truth and follow along in your own Bible. Learn the truth about what God's Word, the Holy Bible clearly states.

Jesus repeated the history of Ancient Israel
The book of Matthew reveals that Jesus repeated the history of ancient Israel, point by point, and overcame where they failed. Notice these parallels between ancient Israel and of Jesus Christ:
Yet there is more. Remember that the name “Israel” not only referred to Jacob, but also to his descendants, who became Israel. The same principle is seen in the New Testament.
For example, the Lord had told the ancient Israelites, “And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation.” Exodus 19:6. In the New Testament, Peter applies these exact words to the church: “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people.” 1 Peter 2:9.
Likewise, right after Paul’s statement in Galatians chapter 3 about Jesus being “the seed,” he then told his Gentile converts [a Gentile is any person who is not of the Jewish faith], “And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.” Galatians 3:29. Thus in the New Testament, the name Israel not only applies to Jesus Christ, but also to those who are born in Christ-His church! In other words, all true Christians are now God’s spiritual Israel.
Double Vision
Have you ever been hit hard on the head and then started seeing double? Well, from what we have studied, the Christian world needs a loving bonk on the head with this New Testament truth so that more people will start “seeing double” about the subject of Israel! According to the New Testament, there are now two Israels. One group is composed of literal Israelites “according to the flesh” (Romans 9:3, 4). The other is “spiritual Israel,” composed of Jews and Gentiles who believe in Jesus Christ.
Paul wrote, “They are not all Israel, which are of Israel.” Romans 9:6. That is, not all are part of God’s spiritual Israel who are of the literal nation of Israel. Paul continued, “That is, They which are the children of the flesh [physical descendants of Abraham], these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.” Romans 9:8. The children of the flesh are only natural descendants of Abraham, but the children of the promise are counted as the true seed. Today any person-Jew or Gentile-can become a part of this spiritual nation of Israel through faith in Jesus Christ.
God Looks on the Heart
Just as there are two Israels, there are also two kinds of Jews!
Also, the seven last plagues that are found in Revelation 15 and 16 talks about the angels that pour out the vials of God’s wrath. It’s just before the second coming of Jesus because the seventh of the seven last plagues is synonymous with the coming of the Lord.
There’s a lot of similarity between the seven last plagues and the plagues that fell on Egypt.
The plagues fell on Egypt just before the Children of Israel were liberated from their slavery. The plagues are going to fall on this wicked world just before Spiritual Israel, God’s people, are liberated from the world that is in bondage to sin. And so, just before the second coming, there will be a period–based on some things in Revelation and Daniel, I have good reason to believe the period of the plagues is all going to fit within one years’ time, perhaps even just over a month. When you look at the severity of these things, you can imagine how long the world can go on with the fresh water supply being blood, or the oceans being blood, and most of the population of the world lives either by rivers or oceans, and men being scorched with great heat. And another reason, how long did the plagues last that fell on Job, it was just a matter of weeks when you read the context.
How long did the plagues last that fell on Egypt; again it was in the matter of within a couple months’ time, and so for these reasons, based on those stories, the plagues will probably fall just with a few months. And it says in Revelation, “All of her plagues come within one day”, and a day in prophecy is a year. So within a year’s time it all happens.
The intensity will be different in different parts of the world, the same way it was in Egypt. But God promises to protect His people all through those plagues, just like He protected the Children of Israel through the plagues that fell on Egypt. We don’t need to be afraid; that’s why we should memorize Psalm 91.

Jeff Dugan – Country to Christian
Jeff Dugan and I started playing music together back in the mid 70′s. Together, we joined up with a few of our high school friends and began playing in local nightclubs and for private parties. We were 15 and 16 years old at that time.
As the years passed by we eventually went our separate ways and into different styles of music. Most of the other musicians eventually quit music. I stayed at it mainly for the extra money. Jeff ended up getting a recording contract with Warner Bros.
We’ve recently gotten together to do a few shows and had a great time. Country music has a way of getting into a person’s veins.
A Country musician will quit playing music with plans of never starting up again. They usually always do!
Jeff just recently released his 1st Christian album “In His Hands” featuring the current single “Jesus And John Wayne”.

Why are there so many Churches teaching differently?
The answer is that many people simply choose not to receive what Scripture says.
They would rather follow traditions instead of following Jesus.
