" I've never read a better book on the rapture . . . enlightening!"- Peggy Ellis, Christian author & editor

As a companion to the parent book, The Gathering: When the Rapture Really Happens, this STUDY GUIDE will walk readers through the author's study (and facilitate their own) in learning where precisely the rapture happens in the book of Revelation and many related events surrounding it. As the world enters a season like never before, fresh insights in Revelation are needed like never before. Current church programs, leadership workshops and yesterday's sermons haven't prepared the world and the Church. It's time to get ready; this book will prepare readers!

As events accelerate towards the fulfillment of end-time prophecies, the world entered a new era amidst the global events arising connected with the 2020 COVID-19 virus. The pandemic, civil unrest and major societal fluctuations have people asking bigger questions with renewed interest in Christ's return-and with good reason. It is nearer than ever!

This Individual & Group Study Guide compiles scripture, scripture search, discussion questions, 'witnessing lead-in conversation-starters', other helps with ADDITIONAL fresh findings by the author NOT INCLUDED in the book to further establish what the Bible says on the subject of Jesus' return and the rapture. By knowing when the rapture happens, it is so that we will not be shaken nor unsettled, as Paul encouraged the Thessalonian believers when he disclosed to them the sequence of events. Those who don't know the biblical narrative & sequence of events may be vulnerable to fear & confusion as pressures increase. For those who understand what is happening, they will be equipped to stand in faith and confidence.

In this STUDY GUIDE, readers will learn and further establish:

• God's use of paradox and Jesus' use of 'terms of sequence'.
• More on the VERY IMPORTANT & MOST OVERLOOKED element almost no one is talking about . . . the connection of the fulfillment of the mystery of God to the rapture.
• What must happen before Jesus returns. Can He return at any time?
• About the Elect & the Holy Spirit in the Tribulation
• Who really is the one restraining & holding back the antichrist (it's not who you think).
• The clear, undeniable position of the rapture in Revelation.
• To which trumpets to pay attention: those in Revelation or Rosh Hashanah?
• Ways you can prepare, and more.
