Joel Richardson FAI STUDIOS – Eusebius Refuting the False Claims of Pretribulationists

This Revelation Timeline Decoded post reviews a video by Joel Richardson of FAI STUDIOS, called ‘Eusebius Refuting the False Claims of Pretribulationists // THE RAPTURE & ENDURANCE OF THE SAINTS.’

Video description: MARANATHA Global Bible Study // The Rapture and the Endurance of the Saints Episode 20: Eusebius Refuting the False Claims of Pretribulationists.

Before I begin my review of Joel Richardson’s explanations, let me declare that I do these type of reviews, not just to expose false teachers; but to show what they teach, which you may have also been taught, so that you can see the truth and the deception.

These reviews serve as an open rebuttal of their explanations. It’s not about me, it’s about the truth of prophecy fulfillment which reveals the glory of our beloved Messiah!

This pretribulation rapture series from Joel Richardson of FAI Studios is based on a false premise.

Joel is teaching that there is no pretribulation rapture before a 7-year tribulation period.

The pre-trib / mid-trib / post-trib rapture debate is based on the concept of a futuristic 70th week of Daniel, but that is a deception to fool the end times saints.

The 70th week of Daniel 9 prophecy foretold when Messiah would appear to carry out His ministry, and when (in the middle of the 70th week) He would confirm the everlasting covenant (that was mentioned in Daniel 9:4) with His blood as the Passover Lamb, to atone for our sins. It’s not about the end times or the antichrist.

Joel Richardson of FAI Studios says that he’s not criticizing Lee Brainard personally, as he’s a good brother. I think that he just got caught up in confirmation bias. The claims that he’s making are demonstratively false.

The same is true of Joel Richardson and Dalton Thomas. They have confirmation bias, meaning that their explanation of the fulfillment of Revelation and the rapture of the saints is based on their blindness about the fulfillment of the 70th week of Daniel 9. That is a demonstratively false narrative! 

Most of the prophecies in Revelation have already been fulfilled during the last 1,900 years, but the explanations from Joel Richardson and Dalton Thomas are hiding the truth.

Joel Richardson of FAI Studios says that the wrath of god is poured out on the wicked after the tribulation. 

He’s lumping the prophecies about great tribulation in Daniel 12, Matthew 24 and Revelation, into one event, which is a false association.

They do not point to one event in the end times and they’ve all already been fulfilled during the last 2,000 years, as the saints have faced persecution from the pagan Roman Emperors and the antichrist beast popes.

Read Times Of Great Tribulation In Daniel And Revelation

Joel Richardson of FAI Studios cites Luke 21:29 to assign it to the end times, trampling of Jerusalem, the cosmic signs, the times of the gentiles, before Jesus returns.

The context of Messiah’s Olivet Discourse is the desolation of the temple that He just came out of, in which He rebuked the Jewish leaders who were seeking to kill Him. He proclaimed that judgment would come upon them in that generation.

We know that within a generation, the Jewish-Roman War of 66-70 AD caused Jerusalem, the temple and the Jewish nation to be desolated. 1.1 million Jews died in and around Jerusalem from famine, pestilence, infighting, suicide, evisceration, crucifixion and by the Roman sword.

All of the things that Messiah described from Matthew 23:36 to Matthew 24:33 were fulfilled by 70 AD. The enemy has deceived people about the symbolism of the sun, moon, and stars being darkened; Messiah coming in power and glory; and the elect being gathered. But the Bible gives the proper definitions for the symbols.

The term ‘this generation’ was used ten times in Matthew, the last time in Matthew 24:34. The previous nine times it points to the Jews who lived during Messiah’s first advent. When you take Messiah at His Word you see the fulfillment of His Olivet Discourse and how the things that He described took place in that generation of Jews, for their punishment of continuing their rebellion against the Father, for delivering Messiah up to be killed, and for persecuting His disciples.

They proclaimed ‘let His blood be on us,’ and that prophetic statement was fulfilled in that generation, during the Jewish-Roman War of 66-70 AD, when Jerusalem, the temple and the Jewish nation were desolated.

Read The Olivet Discourse Deception

Joel Richardson of FAI Studios says that Eusebius believed that the church would face the antichrist.

This is true, but Eusebius is not pointing to a one-man antichrist who appears in the last seven years of history.

The antichrist beast popes have already ruled and reigned. They caused tens of millions of saints to be killed. They already proclaimed to be god, forgive sins and provide salvation.

I pray that this posts helps wake you up, so that you can see how the enemy has deceived the end-times saints, for Messiah’s return draw nigh and you don’t want to be caught off-guard like the foolish virgins who don’t have the oil of Scriptural truth to light their way.


Joel Richardson FAI STUDIOS Fatal Head Wound VideoJoel Richardson and Dalton Thomas teach a futuristic fulfillment of the 70th week of Daniel 9, the Olivet Discourse and the prophecies in Revelation.

The 70th week of Daniel 9 is about Messiah’s ministry and His blood sacrifice as the Spotless Lamb to atone for our sins. It has nothing to do with the antichrist or the end times.

The Olivet Discourse foretold the events that would lead to the desolation of Jerusalem, the second temple and the Jewish nation; as punishment for the Jewish leaders continuing in rebellion against the Heavenly Father and for delivering His Son up to be killed. It has nothing to do with the antichrist or the end times.

Most of the prophecies in Revelation have been fulfilled in exacting detail during the last 1,900 years. It describes the historical narrative of the Satan-empowered leaders of the Roman beast kingdom (pagan Emperors > antichrist beast Popes > false prophet Jesuit Superior Generals) fighting against Messiah and His saints.

The explanations of Joel Richardson and Dalton Thomas serve to deflect blame away from the enemy in Rome, and to mislead the end-times saints so that they’re not prepared for how the end-times will play out, and don’t know the context of Messiah’s return.
