OverviewRapturemania and Rapturephobia addresses one of the most emotionally charged topics in the modern church-the Second Coming of Christ. In an age of viral prophecies, failed predictions, online panic, and sensational preaching, many believers swing between two extremes: unhealthy obsession with the rapture (rapturemania) or crippling fear of being left behind (rapturephobia). Both distort the meaning of biblical hope. Both leave Christians anxious, confused, or spiritually frozen. In this groundbreaking book, Dr. Ernest Musekiwa brings together pastoral wisdom, biblical scholarship, historical insight, and deep cultural awareness to offer a balanced, Christ-centered vision of Christian hope. Drawing on Scripture, early church history, global failed predictions, and uniquely African case studies-including Zimbabwe, South Africa, Kenya, and Ghana-Dr. Musekiwa examines why date-setting persists, why believers are so easily influenced, and how these predictions damage faith and spiritual stability. Instead of fear or speculation, this book calls believers to a posture the New Testament consistently emphasises: hopeful watchfulness, joyful endurance, and mission-focused living. Dr. Musekiwa shows how Christ's return should inspire holiness, courage, compassion, and steadfastness-not anxiety or hysteria. He addresses the psychological, cultural, and pastoral dynamics behind rapture obsession and offers practical tools for discernment in the digital age. Rapturemania and Rapturephobia is written for pastors, church leaders, Bible students, and everyday believers who long to rediscover the blessed hope without confusion or fear. Clear, compelling, and deeply pastoral, this book will help you let go of panic-driven eschatology and embrace a Christ-centered expectation that strengthens faith, stabilizes emotions, and fuels mission. If you want to understand the Second Coming biblically, live with confidence instead of dread, and resist the noise of sensationalism-this book is for you.
