Are You Prepared For The Rapture?
Eevryone wants to make heaven but only few are ready to carry their cross, forsake anything, loose anything and be Holy to trully make Heaven. Todays prosperity and false preachers have even make it worse, as they refuse to preach the raw gospel truth and also refuse to make people understand that anyone who is not ready to loose all for Christ, face shame and disgrace, be perscecuted and overcome every bad act with good behaviour cannnot be a good Christian.
Many keep claiming heaven but their ways is leading them to Hell. people refuse to understand that Christianity is a way of life that must be patterned to Christ-like without which heaven cannot be assured. Today, we hardly see true bornagain Christian with practical proof. Most of what is seen are religious christians, christian by problem and mirracle seekers Christians. This is why you can hardly differientiate a so-called Christian from prostirute, huligans, scammers, and the world.
Rapture Will Happen In The Midst Of Tribulation
We have been longtime deceived that Rapture will happen before Tribulation which is a great decention and cunfussion in the highest order. Many bible scollers have spread this erronic teachings which the devil want to use to make people remain unprepared for the trbulation of the saints, which will start before the repture. The bible clearly make us understand that Rapture will happen in the midst of the tribulation of the saints. (Matt. 24: 1-51)
Mat 24:4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
Mat 24:5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
Mat 24:6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
Mat 24:7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
Mat 24:8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
Mat 24:9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake.
Mat 24:10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
Mat 24:11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
Mat 24:12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
Mat 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
Mat 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
The Abomination of Desolation
Mat 24:15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
Mat 24:16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
Mat 24:17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:
Mat 24:18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
Mat 24:19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
Mat 24:20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:
Mat 24:21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
Mat 24:22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.
Mat 24:23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
Mat 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Mat 24:25 Behold, I have told you before.
Mat 24:26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
Mat 24:27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Mat 24:28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
The Coming of the Son of Man
Mat 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
Mat 24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
Mat 24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
The saints shall witness and face the tribulation, it is in the midst of the seven (7) years of tribulation, that the trumpet shall be blown by an arc angel and the saints will be gathered all round the earth, and at the end of the 7year God will conclusively unleash His great whrath upon His enemies (the beast / demons) and those who refuse to repent and rejected the saving grace of Christ and form eligeance with the devil. As they will be deceived and lead my the devil to fight God which is called “The war of Armageddon”.
He will fight the battle of Armageddon. John says: “And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. “And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.”—Revelation.19:15,16.
Revelation. 19:1–10 “And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God: “For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand. “And again they said, Alleluia. And her smoke rose up for ever and ever. “And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped God that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia. “And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great.

“And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth. “Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. “And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
“And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God. “And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellow-servant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy”
Then comes the great millennium, the period of righteousness and peace when the knowledge of God will cover the earth as the waters cover the seas, and into eternity the ages will roll. God has a plan. God has a program. God has a purpose. God has a prescription. You are not an accident nor an incident. God has a plan and purpose for your life: It is either counting for Christ or a bad example to the world. I hope each of you can say, “I’m ready for the coming of Christ. I know where I’ll be after the rapture.”
Nothing will be the same after the sound of the trumpet, after the descent of the Lord, after the voice of the archangel, after the resurrection of the dead, after the translation of the living—everything will be changed. God is working out His plan. We are now living in what is commonly called the church age or the dispensation of the church or the age of grace and the tribulation of the saints has starten unveiling as the anti-christ and the beast is releaving themselves and their agenders.
At The Rapture.
Rapture is an event, to happen suddenly, withen a twikling of an eye, when the saints (those who died in the Lord and the saints who are still alive) shall be caught up, to the sky, to meet with the Lord (Jesus), As wheat is ceperated from the chaff, and they will be with the Lord and rejoice forever.
1Thess. 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
1Thess 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
1Thess 4:18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
Can you imagine the consternation that will be going on here on earth! Can you imagine the headlines in the newspapers all over the world the day after the rapture: “Millions Missing From Every Continent!” Someone asks, “How are we going to solve the employment problem?” God is going to solve that. Another asks, “How are we going to solve the food problem?” God is going to solve that.

When Jesus comes, every believer will be taken out of this world. Planes will be flying through the air at seven hundred miles an hour; suddenly the saved pilots will be taken out. What about those left who are unsaved? Cars will be speeding across the highways; the saved drivers will be caught up, but their unsaved passengers will be left. What then? Ships will be sailing through the ocean; Christian captains will be taken out at the rapture.
Then what happens to the ships as they sail unmanned through rough seas? Trains will be going across the rails; Christian engineers are caught up. What is going to happen to those trains and their passengers who are not saved?, Many car will crash in accident. What an awesome day that will be! Rapture was to deliver the saints from the awkward harpenings and from the unbearable wrath of God coming upon the enemies of God.
“Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation , which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.”—Revelation. 3:10.
Two Classes Of People.
There are two classes of people—saved and unsaved. Whatever else they are—their status in life, their nationality, their color or creed—they are either saved or lost. There is no middle ground.
Jesus tells us about two ways, two roads, two destinations, and two groups of people. I hope that you find yourself in the right company.
“Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: “Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.”—Matthew 7:13,14.
Notice the contrast of many and few. Most people tonight are not saved. The world is heavily populated with people who have never been born again, dear and precious people who have never trusted the Saviour. What a harvest field! What an opportunity! What a great time to reach out and bring the lost to Jesus, ere the trumpet sounds and time as we know it will be no more! When night settles in, the opportunity to win the lost will be gone. It will be too late when the day of God’s wrath comes!
“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. “Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? “Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. “A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. “Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
“Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. “Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? “And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.”—Mattew. 7:15–23.
Not everyone whose name is on a church roll is saved. Some are going into Hell from a church pew. They are depending on their good works or their baptism or their reformation or their turning over a new leaf or signing a card or shaking a preacher’s hand or going into a baptistery. But Jesus said, “Ye must be born again.” You must have a new birth, a new life. You must be born all over from above. All who experience the new birth will be raptured when Jesus comes. All who have not experienced the new birth will be left upon the earth to go through the horrors of that awesome period called the great Tribulation. The saved will be in Heaven after the rapture; the unsaved will be left on the earth!
The Marriage Supper Of The Lamb
While this is happening on earth, Christians will be in Heaven enjoying the marriage supper of the Lamb! That is a seven-year honeymoon! I remember when my wife and I were married, we went around the block in a car furnished by a dear friend.
He even paid for a room in a hotel. Yes, some of us had just a simple room for a weekend honeymoon. But when Jesus comes, we will have a seven-year honeymoon! We are His bride, we are married to Him, and He is going to come for His waiting bride. While we’re having a seven-year honeymoon, the awesome judgment will be happening on earth.

I am so glad that Christians have already found their refuge in the Rock of Ages.
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee;
Let the water and the blood,
From Thy wounded side which flowed,
Be of sin the double cure,
Save from wrath and make me pure.
Could my tears forever flow,
Could my zeal no languor know,
These for sin could not atone;
Thou must save, and Thou alone:
In my hand no price I bring,
Simply to Thy cross I cling.
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee.
Brothers and Sisters, I bid you to run away and hide tonight in the Rock of Ages, Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God. Where will you be after the rapture?
