Did the early Church expect to escape the final persecution—or to endure it?

For more than a century, modern pre-tribulation rapture theology has promised believers a “Great Escape” from the rise of the Antichrist and the final tribulation. Yet this teaching did not originate with Jesus, the apostles, or the early Church.

In The Great Escape Delusion, Bible teacher Glenn Langohr examines this doctrine in light of Scripture and the unified witness of early Christian writers. Drawing from Jesus’ own teachings, the apostolic order set forth by Paul, and the writings of persecuted early believers, this book demonstrates that the Church expected to face tribulation—not evade it.

This study exposes modern misquotations, challenges “any-moment” rapture claims, and shows why endurance, obedience, and faithfulness were understood as essential to salvation and future reign with Christ.

The early Church did not ask, “Will we escape?”

They asked, “Will we endure?”

Overwhelming evidence refuting pre-trib rapture

Glenn has done his research and puts it in a way that is very easy to understand. I really appreciated learning about the early church discourse on the rapture and tribulation. So many men have deceived the church with pre-tribulation rapture theory and once saved always saved theology that doesn't align with the Scriptures or early church apologists.

If you have ever wondered about the rapture, this is the book to listen to! Glenn's use of Scripture is on point! It is evident that the desire of Glenn is to shed light to the church body and lead people to the salvation promised at the END of the age, after enduring the same suffering our Messiah endured. He leads his listeners to the truth found in the Living Word.
