Powerful Proof of the PreTrib Rapture — Translation

Soothkeep
With Bible Teacher Lee W. Brainard
Synopsis: Does 2 Thessalonians 2:1–3 teach a pre-tribulation rapture, or does it prove that the Church must go through the Tribulation?

Lee Brainard examines the Greek grammar, translation choices, and historical context of this important passage to explain why it distinguishes the coming of the Lord and our gathering together unto Him from the Day of the Lord.

In this episode of Prophecy in the Crucible*, Lee compares the King James Bible's translation with modern translations, including the NASB and NKJV, and examines the Greek preposition *huper and its use with verbs of petition. He argues that the grammatical structure supports understanding the rapture as the reason believers should not be shaken by the prospect of the Day of the Lord.
