There is a Day Coming

There is a day coming when, all of a sudden, people will look around in an instant and all they will see are the results of millions upon millions of people vanishing into the clouds. Cars will crash, planes will crash, trains will crash, there will be no young children running around playing and chaos will reign after the initial shock. That will be the day the Body of Christ has been caught up to be with Him in the air. That will be the day when everyone who wouldn't listen to the gospel will finally understand that it is too late and now they must face a Great Tribulation, unlike they can even imagine.

Even for those Christians who believed in the rapture but thought it would come at the middle of the tribulation or at the end will be greatly surprised to find themselves suddenly in the presence of the Lord and all their intents on "helping out" during the Tribualtion are gone forever.

The chaos that will ensure after the rapture will be horrendous because not one person left will be a Christian and care for others more than themselves. It will be a time of "every man for himself" and "the strongest shall survive" mentality to kick in full force. Looters will go on a rampage, killings over food, water and other things necessary for survival will erupt in unimaginable proportions. The true character of even "good" men will be revealed for what it really is: "thinking evil continually".

The governments will be overrun with the frozen inability to cope with disaster after disaster so martial law will be enacted to bring some semblance of order. There will be ''brother fighting against brother" in the streets as some will refuse to accept the governments complete take-over of their lives. Guns and other weapons of choice will be as common as they were in the old west as people seek to defend themselves against each other and the government.

Others will literally die, "their hearts failing them for fear". Hospitals and other medical agencies will be swamped with the sick, wounded and dying having little help as supplies rapidly run out. The world over the dead will lie in the streets with no one to give them a decent burial and disease will run rampant; sicknesses that can ill be treated any longer.

The those who have been witnessed to about the Lord Jesus Christ by family, friends and the Church will realize what has happened and understand that they have been left behind to face the wrath of the Lord. Some will rail at the skies, cursing God while others will finally give their lives over to the Lord only to have to run from what is coming next.

A man will arise and promise to put an end to all the chaos and misery that people are living in. He will be charismatic and a hope to many people so they will follow Him and believe all that He says is truth. Yet it will be a lie for He will be the devil incarnate; the Anti-Christ. He will promise peace and security but a mere three and a half years later break His promise and insist upon being worshipped. Those who accept His conditions will live but lose their lives for all eternity. Those who refuse will be put to death if caught but, if not, will not be able to "buy or sell" unless they have His mark upon their hand or forehead. They will perish or they will come together as One and survive, depending on the will of the one and only true God, the Lord Jesus Christ.

When the world sees this man as who He really is, some will come against him, to war against him in the Valley of Megiddo, and the Lord will terminate that battle by the brightness of His coming. The Anti-Christ, the False Prophet(who has caused the "church" to worship the Beast)will be thrown into the Lake of Fire and the Lord will set up His Kingdom on earth for a thousand years.

That day could be today. What is your relationship with the Lord? If you don't know Him as your Lord and Savior, then I beseech you not to put it off any longer for "ye know not the day nor the hour of His return". Neither do you know how long your life is to be upon this earth, should He tarry. Today is all we really have. Know the Lord and be saved from His wrath to come.
