How Interpretative Approaches Shape Theological Conclusions Artwork

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.

In this episode, we'll discuss how interpretive methodologies impact theological conclusions. Do the words of scripture mean what they say, or are they symbols for a spiritual meaning? We'll explore this idea by discussing the Millennium and the Rapture. I'll provide a hermeneutical rationale for premillennialism, and for the pre-tribulation rapture.
