The Rapture Is Coming

The Rapture is coming.

Someday in the near future the Bride of Christ is going to be taken from this earth by God. Millions of people are going to suddenly disappear, with no explanation. People of all ages.

And I expect that the children of this world will also go largely missing.

I expect chaos, panic, and fear will be felt by those who will be left behind. I expect major accidents. I expect plane crashes. I expect riots, and looting, and violence.

And after this event comes the tribulation; the judgment of this world; God's wrath and punishment poured out on this world full of sinners who rejected Him and would not repent.

It will be 7 years of horror for those who are left behind. I STRONGLY encourage you to read the book of Revelation so that you will know. Nothing like it has ever happened before in the history of mankind and nothing like it ever will happen again.

Jesus told us signs that would come to pass that would signal the end of the world is coming. They can be found in Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21. Wars and rumors of wars, pestilences, earthquakes in divers places, famines, false prophets, false Christs, persecution of Christians, sin abounding everywhere and peoples' hearts growing cold.

The bible also tells us what our society will look like prior to the end times:

This passage from 2 Timothy PERFECTLY describes the world we live in RIGHT NOW.

The tribulation hasn't started yet, but it's going to start soon. Facebook, YouTube, and social media in general is FULL of people who will tell you the same thing.

The good news is, for now, you still have time to turn from your sin and to choose to follow Jesus Christ; to ask Him for forgiveness, and accept the free gift of salvation that He died on the cross for in order to give you. It is His wish that no one should perish and that all should come to Him. His love for you and I is greater than we can ever comprehend; so great that He allows you to choose whether you will follow Him or reject Him, and He will honor that choice. But if you reject Him, you die the second death; you are sent to hell, which will be cast into the lake of fire, where you will be tormented day and night with no hope for escape and forever separated from God.

So which will you choose?

I hope to see you in heaven!
