by Thomas Ice
Dr. Robert Gundry of Westmont College, a leading posttribulationist, stated in a personal letter to Thomas Ice in December 1995 that the presentation of Pseudo-Ephraem’s sermon by Demy and Ice has "renewed my interest in the topic." What topic? The rapture debate! Gundry authored a landmark book presenting a new form of posttribulationism in 1973 titled The Church and the Tribulation and had not produced a book on this subject until the summer of 1997 when First the Antichrist appeared. Included in First the Antichrist is a 27-page response to the claim of Timothy Demy and Thomas Ice that Pseudo-Ephraem’s (PE) sermon "On the Last Times, the Antichrist, and the End of the World" contains a pretribulational statement. It should come as no surprise that Gundry disagrees with our conclusion.,,
