The Pre-Trib Prophecy Podcast

The Pre-Trib Prophecy Podcast

This podcast teaches Biblical prophecy from a pre-tribulation, pre-millennial, and dispensational point of view. We focus on Biblical exposition of the various texts that teach about Bible prophecy, and will discuss ideas such as the coming rapture of the church, the tribulation, the rise of the Antichrist, a future apostate global religion, and the second coming of Christ, to name a few. Joel Dover is the Pastor of the Calvary Chapel church in Newnan GA, and the former Professor of Eschatology and Dean of Biblical Studies at Calvary Chapel University. Joel earned a Doctorate from Luther Rice University in 2010 where he graduated with honors, and also holds an M.Div and M.A.R. from Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary, and a B.A. from UNCW.

Zechariah is one of the books of minor prophecy that speaks specifically to events to come at the close of the tribulation.  Zechariah speaks to the second coming of the Lord at the close of the Tribulation, to a national conversion to Christianity at the last day in Israel, and to the establishing of the Lord's literal kingdom in Jerusalem.  In that day, all the nations of the earth will be under His administrative rule.

This week we'll continue our look at the Ezekiel prophecies.  The Lord showed Ezekiel that in the latter days, after the regathering of Israel into the land (1948), that the Lord would gather armies from the north to invade Israel for plunder.  Among these nations are Russia, Turkey, Afghanistan, Iran, and several others who will form a military alliance to invade Israel.  

It would seem that depleted resources and shortages may...

Today we'll look at two powerful chapters in Ezekiel, chapters 36-37.  God spoke through the prophet about a future day when He would gather Israel from all of the nations, establish them again in their own land, and unify them as one people.  In those days, the Lord would take a dead nation that had lost all hope and restore her miraculously into a nation again.  People would come from the four corners of the earth to rejoin t...

In this episode we'll look at an often overlooked and misunderstood concept in the New Testament that relates to the coming of Christ in a spiritual mystery, the Jewish Wedding Custom.  This is one of those cultural teachings that helps us to unlock the New Testament, and even the teachings in the New Testament about the return of Christ.  Remember, when we read the New Testament, we've go to see it through the lenses of th...

This week we'll continue our look at Matthew 24 and discuss the rapture of the church.  Did you know that when discussing His coming with the disciples, that Jesus actually answers one question with two answers?  One coming of Christ, the rapture, is a sudden coming to rescue believers from the judgment of the Tribulation.  This coming is unexpected/sudden/without warning, takes believers out of the world while leaving behind t...

Hi Friends,

In this episode I'll continue an exposition through Matthew 24.  Last time we learned about the signs of the times...the general climate of the season preceding the end that are the beginning of sorrows/birth pangs.  

Let's continue to see Jesus' answers to the Disciple's questions in Matthew 24:3.  In this episode, we'll address the signs of the end of the age.  As Jesus answers their question, he jum...

In this episode I'll take us through the first 14 verses of Matthew 24 as we learn about the general signs of the times that Jesus predicted as indicators of a last days climate.  We'll also learn about the structure of Matthew 24, which is vital to a proper interpretation of the chapter.  

What kinds of things should we be watching for as indicators that we are nearing the return of the Lord?  There are eight specific signs...

In this episode I'll begin a discussion of the doctrine of imminence...meaning that Jesus may return at any time.  What's interesting  is that some of the texts that speak of Christ's return teach the doctrine of imminence, while others detail numerous signs that must occur before the Lord's return.  

In this we learn that God speaks of two returns.  The rapture is the Lord's coming in the air to snatch away His ...

In this episode, Pastor Joel teaches about the interval between the 69th and 70th weeks of Daniel.  While there are no prophetic things that would prevent the imminent rapture of the church, there are certainly God goals that are to be accomplished during the interval between the 69th and 70th weeks.   In this episode, we'll look at...

    In our previous podcast we learned that there is a coming revitalization of the old Roman Empire, which will be led by a charismatic global leader best known to us as the Antichrist.  In this episode, we'll look at several scriptures to begin thinking about the Antichrist, what he will do, and what sort of characteristics could be used to describe him.  Specifically, we'll learn that...

    Daniel 9 contains perhaps the most significant last days prophecy in the entire Bible...Daniel's Seventy Weeks prophecy.   What makes this prophecy so remarkable is that Daniel provides timing details that help us to understand the scope of the things that are to come.  We'll see the timing of the triumphal entry prophesied over 400 years in advance, as well as the forecast of the crucifixion of the Messiah.  Understanding ...

    The first half of the book of Daniel records the interpretation of dreams for various kings, while the latter half of Daniel records visions and dreams given directly to Daniel.  

    In Daniel 7, God reveals the rise of future kingdoms to Daniel that reflects an exact pattern of history that God revealed first to Nebuchadnezzar in chapter 2.  

    Whenever the Bible repeats things such as this, it makes the sure word of prophecy even more s...

    In this second episode, we'll see that God revealed a vision to Nebuchadnezzar King of Babylonian about the rise and fall of four historical kingdoms upon the earth.  Beginning with Babylon, the vision identifies four kingdoms that would rule the earth in sequence.  The final kingdom, which we know to be the Roman empire, was prophesied to divide into two parts (east and west), and after that to dissolve into a number of indepe...

    In this episode, I'll begin by teaching about the scope of the tribulation from Daniel 9 and Daniel 12, and then answers four questions about this new podcast.

  • What is the Pretribulationism?
  • What is Premillennialism?
  • What is an Expository Hermeneutic?
  • What does it mean that Christians are Rapture Ready?
  • Recognizing a literal 7 year tribulation as a future event is critical to understanding the timing of the rapture, the second comin...
