Not Appointed to Wrath: Recovering the True Promise of His Return, (Hardcover)

The Time for Shallow Escape Theology Is Over - A Call Back to Apostolic Hope

Not Appointed to Wrath: A Biblical and Historical Defense of the Posttribulational Return of Christ is not just another book about the end times. It is a bold, systematic theology rooted in Scripture and confirmed by the early Church fathers-offering a clear alternative to the confusion of pretribulation rapture teachings.

For too long, fear-based eschatology has distorted the "blessed hope" into a promise of escape from suffering. But the Bible reveals a greater truth: the saints are called to endurance, faithfulness through tribulation, and vindication at the visible return of Jesus Christ. This book exposes the flaws of escapist theology and reclaims the apostolic pattern of suffering before glory.

Inside you will discover:

• A full scriptural and historical refutation of the pretribulation rapture theory
• Clear explanations of key passages like 1 Thessalonians 5:9 and Matthew 24
• The consistent testimony of the early Church on the posttribulational return
• A powerful theology of perseverance, judgment, and ultimate victory
• A pastoral call to courage, discernment, and preparation in the last days

Whether you're a pastor, student, or serious believer seeking truth, this book will challenge popular tradition and equip you to stand in faith-not to avoid tribulation, but to overcome through it. The falling away is real, and false hopes are fueling it. Now is the time to return to the foundation laid by Christ and His apostles.

This is not fear. This is faith.
