| Is Jesus coming to "rapture" Christians from the earth -- enabling them to escape the terrible tribulations prophesied in the Bible for the earth's last days? The short answer: No. In this much-anticipated release, Thigpen lays out in clear, simple terms the biblical foundations of Catholic teaching on the close of the age -- the "end times." Along with Scripture, he draws from Tradition, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, Church history, and contemporary experience to reveal the shortcomings of the rapture doctrine and the larger tangle of twisted religious teachings to which it is tied.
