Following the biblical pattern of the Shemitah combined with the signs of the end times, it makes sense that some would speculate that the tribulation is close.
But will Christians have to endure the prophesied events, or will Christ rapture us away to His kingdom?
The second is more likely, author and speaker John Shorey tells the Jim Bakker Show.
“The church people want God to do everything the way they think it should be done,” Bakker says. But God is not bound by human thought.
For Shorey, that means taking a closer look at when the rapture will happen in regards to the Great Tribulation.
Take a look.
