Books dealing with the Second Coming have always been popular. There are literally hundreds if not thousands available. However, virtually all of them deal with the subject assuming a pre-tribulation rapture. Conflicting teachings are ignored or ridiculed. Jesus is Only Coming Twice examines the conflicting claims for the timing of the Rapture and Tribulation from pre-, mid and post tribulation positions and demonstrates the Biblical basis (or lack of basis) behind each theory, concluding that the commonly held pre-tribulation rapture theory is an unhistorical and unbiblical heresy.
Jay Phelan Jr., president of North Park Theological Seminary has said, “I think that the neglect of the study of eschatology in the church is a serious mistake, and it’s one of the reasons that stuff like Left Behind becomes so popular. People are hungry to have some information about what the Bible says about the future. And if you don’t give them something good to eat, they’ll eat junk food. And the Left Behind series are kind of the Twinkies and the Hostess Cupcakes of the theological world.”
If the Left Behind series are the Twinkies and cupcakes of the theological world, Jesus is Only Coming Twice is more like Mom’s home cookin’ – more nutritious and satisfying in the long run, something that’ll “stick to your ribs.”
