Premise of The Rapture Cult The premise of this book is that many good, Americans are duped into believing that it is useless to oppose the evils of our day since the Second Coming will solve all earthly problems for Christians. They are told that they should spend their entire spare time working for the church and winning souls, in preparation for the imminent "rapture of the saints." This term is used to describe the anticipated secret return to earth of Christ, who would come to remove all true Christians from the earth prior to the terrible tribulation which is to follow. Because they feel that they won't be here to experience anything, why fight the battle against evil anymore? Thus they are neutralized in the battle against evil and spend their days watching and waiting for the rapture that will come and deliver them just before the world is overtaken by the evils of Socialism and the New World Order. This book causes Christians everywhere to take a second look at the "rapture of the saints" theory proposed by Scofieldian literature and questions the methods and mission of Scofield, the originator of this theory. Could Scofields theory really be a tool of the enemy to neutralize those who would otherwise fight the battle for freedom? Theres only one way to find out! Order your copy of The Rapture Cult Today!
