I had an interesting dream Friday night!!!After the rapture, the whole neighborhood was engulfed in a chest high tsunami....... the church is on much higher ground. when I went there, all the church members were gone....in their place several ""religious"" groups were there, each group in a different building in the propperty..... as I walked by, each group gave my unpleasant stares...and one group threw me out of the building because I was not wearing a tie........today, I mentioned to my Asst pastor we should put another sign on the side of the building something like this:If you were Left Behind
When Jesus came to take His faithful Church to heaven; see: Revelation 3:7-13
1Thessalonians 4:15 (KJV)For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent (precede) them which are asleep.(dead)
1Th 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:
1Th 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.
1Th 4:18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
It is not too late to get right with GOD--To Confess Jesus as your Lord and Savior
Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. ((from GODs wrath and judgment))
Rom 10:10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Rom 10:11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. (KJV)
Very soon after our disappearance, The AntiChrist will appear; deceiving the whole world with signs and wonders. He will claim to be Jesus. All who follow him are lost, and will end up in Hellfire
Matthew_24:24 (KJV) For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Revelation 13 (The Message Bible)
They worshiped Satan who gave the AntiChrist authority, and they worshiped the AntiChrist exclaiming, "There's never been anyone like the AntiChrist ! No one would dare go to war with the AntiChrist !" 5 The AntiChrist had a loud mouth, boastful and blasphemous. He could do anything he wanted for forty-two months. 6 He yelled blasphemies against God, blasphemed his Name, blasphemed his Church, especially those already dwelling with God in Heaven. 7 He was permitted to make war on God's holy people and conquer them. He held absolute sway over all tribes and peoples, tongues and races. 8 Everyone on earth whose name was not written from the world's foundation in the slaughtered Lamb's Book of Life will worship the AntiChrist . 9 Are you listening to this? 10 They've made their bed; now they must lie in it. Anyone marked for prison goes straight to prison; anyone pulling a sword goes down by the sword. Meanwhile, God's holy people passionately and faithfully stand their ground. ---Read Revelation 13 and 14 !!!
