PTRC Mission Statement

The Pre-Trib Research Center (PTRC) is a “think tank” committed to the study, proclamation, teaching and defending of the Pretribulational Rapture (pre-70^th week of Daniel) and related end-time prophecy.

PTRC Doctrinal Statement

We believe that the sixty-six canonical books of the Old and New Testaments, alone and in their entirety, comprise the God-inspired Scriptures which, therefore, are inerrant in their autographs.

We believe the Bible should be interpreted normally, as with any other piece of sane literature, by a consistently literal hermeneutic which recognizes the clear usage of speech figures.

We believe that Christ will literally rapture His church prior to the 70^th week of Daniel, followed by His glorious, premillennial arrival on the earth at least seven years later to set up His 1,000-year kingdom rule from Jerusalem over the earth.

We believe that God's plan for history demands a consistent distinction between national Israel and the church, which includes an ongoing plan for national, ethnic Israel that culminates in Christ's millennial kingdom.
