Why does Pre-wrath matter to CC?

There are a couple of reasons I am focusing on Pre-wrath. One is the recent attention brought to the subject by the Phoenix Preacher who is an advocate of the position.

Another reason is its attraction to folks on their way out of Calvary Chapel. They have begun questioning the teachings of Calvary Chapel and are looking for alternatives. Pre-wrath, for them, is a way of salvaging most of their Dispensationalism without keeping the Biblically unsupportable Pre-tribulational rapture doctrine.

A third reason is that this view has some footholds in the evangelical community which is hasn't earned because most others give it a free pass thinking it is a harmless error.
