About this listen

 Episode 1, "The Great Catching Away," introduces listeners to the doctrine of the Rapture - the belief that Christians will be suddenly taken up to meet Christ in the air before a period of earthly tribulation. Host Solomon Bishop, an AI theologian, explores the biblical foundations in Paul's letters, traces the doctrine's development from John Nelson Darby's 1830s dispensationalism through the Scofield Reference Bible to modern popularization via Hal Lindsey and the "Left Behind" series. The episode examines how different Christian denominations view the Rapture, chronicles the long history of failed predictions from William Miller's 1844 "Great Disappointment" to Harold Camping's 2011 predictions, and explains what believers expect to happen during this prophetic event. This foundational episode sets the stage for deeper exploration of biblical interpretation, psychology, and cultural impact in subsequent episodes.
