Pastor Alan DiDio shares his extraordinary journey from atheism to a passionate faith in Christ, sparked by a dramatic encounter with God at a Pentecostal church service. Once convinced the Bible’s red letters were the devil’s words, Alan’s life transformed after a powerful moment of revelation exposed the enemy’s lies and led him to surrender to Jesus. His vivid dream of the rapture, experienced just a week after his salvation, ignited a 25-year study of end-times theology, culminating in his book, They Lied to You About the Rapture. Alan debunks various myths and lies surrounding the rapture conversation, emphasizing key scriptures, early church fathers, and the role of the “helmet of the hope of salvation” that inspires holy living and anticipation for Christ’s return. With clarity and conviction, Alan unpacks the biblical distinctions between everyday tribulation, the Tribulation, and the Great Tribulation, explaining why God’s bride, the church, will be spared from His wrath, as foreshadowed by the lives of Noah and Lot. He highlights the significance of the number seven in Revelation, symbolizing divine completion, and addresses the church’s role in supporting Israel amidst rising anti-Semitism. Alan’s message is one of hope, urging believers to trust in Jesus’ grace, live purposefully, and embrace the rapture as a unifying promise – not a divisive debate.
