Second Coming or Rapture by 2026?

‘The Rapture of One in the Field’ etching

 

Various Protestants have pointed to the return of Jesus as coming in either 2023, 2024, 2025, and/or 2026. Is this possible? Will Jesus' second coming occur before the start of the tribulation as a "pre-tribulation rapture" or after the tribulation? What did Jesus, Himself say about the timing of when He would return? Can you rely on the teachings of people such as David Jeremiah, Hal Lindsey, the late Dr. Tim LayHaye, or Jerry Jenkins? Does the Bible, in the 13th chapter of the Book of Ezekiel, have warnings about those that prophesy falsehoods and claim that they are God's teachings? Do various scriptures pointed to by "pretrib rapturists" prove a "rapture" must be different from Jesus' second coming? Will persecutions still hit the church? Are ALL Christians promised protection from the coming "hour of trial" or only the Philadelphian faithful? Is the place of protection on the earth or in heaven? Did Jesus speak of fleeing? Who should "gather together" as Zephaniah 2 says BEFORE the decree is issued? Is Jesus expected to return in the next decade? Does Daniel 9:27 eliminate the return of Jesus prior to 2030 now? Does Daniel now allow for a 2031-2033 return of Jesus? What should you do to be counted worthy to escape what is coming according to Jesus? Dr. Thiel address these issues and more in this sermon.
