Prewrath Rapture of the Church

For thirty years a confirmed pretribulationalist, he now believes that the Church will have to endure the persecution of the Antichrist: "god never promised His children immunity from the trials of this godless world or the assault of the Antichrist. He did promise, 'greater is he [the Holy Spirit] that is in you, than he that is in the world' (1 John 4:4)". In view of the fact that Christians will not escape all of the oppression of the "Tribulation" period, Rosenthal urges godly living in light of a clear understanding of the last days so that we will be prepared for Satan's intense opposition.
