PASTOR AND PROPHECY SCHOLAR MAKES HIS CASE FOR A CONDITIONAL, “PARTIAL RAPTURE” OF MEMBERS OF THE BODY OF CHRIST, ON THE 11 – 15 JAN 10 “FUTURE QUAKE” RADIO PROGRAMS

Nashville, TN – Reverend J.W. (Chip) White, Jr. (www.partialrapture.net), pastor and author of the new book “The Partial Rapture ‘Theory’ Explained – Escaping the Coming Storm” (http://www.xulonpress.com/bookstore/bookdetail.php?PB_ISBN=9781604776843), discusses the Biblical teaching he claims justifies the expectation of a future “partial rapture” of those Christians who earnestly look for Him, with host “Doctor Future” and co-host Tom Bionic, airing daily during the week of 11 January on the “Future Quake” program, broadcast on the Christian talk radio station WENO, 760 AM in Nashville, TN (and archived at http://www.futurequake.com). Reverend White is the pastor of Courtland Baptist Church in Texas, and hosts a weekly Sunday show on KPYN, 900 AM/95.5 FM (www.amen900.com). For over thirty years, he has been studying Scripture, in his own, independent effort, to determine what it explicitly teaches concerning the Rapture of the Church. From this effort, Reverend White has become convinced that it clearly teaches a pre-tribulational Rapture event of only those within the Body of Christ who diligently watch for His appearing. He recently documented his findings from his studies in the aforementioned book, and hosts the “Partial Rapture” discussion board as well, to provide a forum to discuss, debate and explore together its plausibility as evidenced from Scriptural teachings. Reverent White’s book is replete with copious citations of Scripture and various passages, in which he literally interprets and regards the warning by Christ and others of repercussions if Christians are not found “watching” and “waiting”. In spite of his diligence and reliance on Scripture, he has encountered considerable criticism from other Christian teachers and laity who are concerned about its challenges to long-established doctrinal positions. In this compelling interview, while laying out his position via Scripture, he is careful to distinguish our secure position as Christians of eternal life and salvation (espousing an “eternal security” position), and what he believes to be a conditional promise of rescue from the great Tribulation, for those who truly seek to obey Christ’s commands, and be found about the “Master’s business” at His return. Amongst the passages he cites, he focuses on the destiny of those members that comprise the Seven Churches of Revelation, and carefully analyzes the words in their individual teaching by Christ in that book, to undergird his position of selective rapture, and the purpose of those “left behind”. Passages that may challenge his assertions are explored in the discussion, resulting in a show that will leave listeners searching the Word in a fresh way, and challenging presumed “mainstream” doctrinal positions.
