Will Catholics Be "Left Behind"?: A Catholic Critique of the Rapture and Today's Prophecy Preachers​ - Carl E. Olson
This powerful and timely book, written by a former Fundamentalist, is a thorough critique of the popular Fundamentalist notion of the "Rapture" the belief that Christians will be removed from earth prior to a time of Tribulation and the Second Coming. It examines the theological, historical, and Biblical basis for "premillennial dispensationalism", the belief system based around the Rapture, and popularized in the best selling Left Behind books and taught by "Bible prophecy" writers Tim LaHaye, Hal Lindsey, Jack Van Impe, and many others. Written for both the lay person and the serious student, this book combines an engaging, popular approach with detailed footnotes and exhaustive research. A strong, but fair, critique of a dangerous and popular belief, Will Catholics Be Left Behind? provides Catholics and Protestants, lay people and clergy, and students and scholars with important answers and information about the roots and meaning of the "Rapture".

Reviews
"In this extraordinary book, Carl Olson uses a surgeon's scalpel to cut through the mass of confusion that dominates contemporary reflection on the Last Things. Achieving far more than a refutation of millennialist errors and other disordered apocalyptic theories, he illumines the Church's majestic vision of time and eternity and demonstrates that Jesus Christ is the Lord of History and its end."
- Michael O'Brien, Author, Father Elijah

"End times fervor continues to ignite Christians in the twenty-first century. Prophecy preachers and Rapture proponents abound. Where did these new ideas come from? How did they become so popular? Are Catholics being left behind or are they actually way ahead? Olson sorts out the complicated, researches the history and presents it clearly and simply. He has done us all a great service, not Catholics only, but all Christians."
- Steve Ray, Author, Upon This Rock

"Carl Olson has joined personal experience with extensive research to provide an in-depth examination of today's prophecy preachers and the confused, confusing notions they have packaged as entertainment for an often-unsuspecting audience."
- Paul Thigpen, Ph.D., Author, The Rapture Trap

"What a wonderful book on millennial movements. Olson's book will help people think carefully through the decisions to take part in millennial movements rather than allow emotional appeals to determine their decisions. As an extra benefit, Olson's research highlights important and frequently little know data about millennial thoughts."
- Fr. Mitch Pacwa, S.J.
