Message
“The Bible indicates that when Christ returns, the world will not be looking for him,” says Billy Graham. History is going somewhere. We can see the clouds gathering and events heralding the second coming of Jesus Christ every day. The end is at hand; the rapture, which is the catching up of saved, and sanctified saints, beckons. This is the greatest upcoming event. As the perilous times are here, beloved take your stand, keep yourself pure, and rely on the grace and power of God that preserves. God’s people should not despair.
The rapture will be sudden. It will be a sad or painful moment for the unprepared souls, and backsliders as they will be damned forever. Interestingly, it will be swift translation to glory for those who are born-again and are obedient to the end. At the rapture, the church age will be over, and the A ntichrist will take over. God will pour His wrath upon all those who are left behind, and there shall be unimaginable devastation. Sinners should repent of their sins; and Christians are to be watchful and prayerful waiting for this great upcoming event.
