Life is coming to an end. Not in general, like all over the Earth, but we will die one day. So how can we get past that? Truthfully, nobody gets past it. If you don’t believe the Bible, then you will find out precisely what happens and where you will go on that day. Most people don’t like to talk about “end-of-life” issues. They would rather talk about anything else but what may happen at the end. The problem with that is that we don’t know when the end of our life will be. It could be tonight or tomorrow or this weekend or next year. But…it will come.
Granted, the end of the world will happen as well but each of us has an expiration date and we don’t know what day that may be. For some, it is when they are young. For others, they could live to be almost a century old. The time that we are living in, which is the prelude to the Tribulation, will not last very much longer.
Prophecy from the Bible says that what we are experiencing with these wars and conflicts everywhere and the weather events around the world is just the beginning of the “birth pains” leading up to the Tribulation. We don’t know the exact date that it will happen except that the church will be taken up to be with Jesus before the Anti-Christ shows up. God knows the hour and the day, we will find out when the trumpet sounds and we are taken up. Then…the whole world will realize that the Bible and its prophecies are true.
Our trip will not be visual like this representation. It will be more like being transported except it will be instantaneous. The dead in Christ will be taken first and then those of us who are alive will simply disappear from wherever they are. In a car or a plane or at home, everyone who belongs to Jesus will be taken from wherever they are. I pray that whoever reads this will be part of that group.
Who has believed what he has heard from us? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? For he grew up before him like a young plant, and like a root out of dry ground; he had no form or majesty that we should look at him, and no beauty that we should desire him. He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; and as one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his wounds we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned—every one—to his own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth; like a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent, so he opened not his mouth. By oppression and judgment he was taken away; and as for his generation, who considered that he was cut off out of the land of the living, stricken for the transgression of my people? And they made his grave with the wicked and with a rich man in his death, although he had done no violence, and there was no deceit in his mouth. Yet it was the will of the Lord to crush him; he has put him to grief; when his soul makes an offering for guilt, he shall see his offspring; he shall prolong his days; the will of the Lord shall prosper in his hand. Out of the anguish of his soul he shall see and be satisfied; by his knowledge shall the righteous one, my servant, make many to be accounted righteous, and he shall bear their iniquities. Therefore I will divide him a portion with the many, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong, because he poured out his soul to death and was numbered with the transgressors; yet he bore the sin of many, and makes intercession for the transgressors.
