Christians excitedly wait in expectation of meeting our Lord Jesus Christ in the air, and forever being with him throughout eternity. We’re promised that Jesus Christ will descend from Heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and the trumpet of the LORD God, where faithful Christians who are living at the time will be caught up together with them in the clouds.
“But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. 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 them which are asleep. 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: 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. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.” (1Th 4:13-18 AV)
Christians know Jesus Christ will one day rapture their living souls to him at the LORD God’s chosen time. The worldly know to, as the popular best selling “Left Behind” books spread the prophecies of end times events to almost everybody in the world. Lucifer knows of the important day, when Christians are gathered to their Savior, to prepare for the ushering in of the final plans of destruction to him and his people. And you can bet the powerful world leaders who will one day assume critical roles that will trigger the events prophesized within the books of Daniel, Ezekiel, Isaiah and Revelations, know all about the plans of Jesus Christ to rapture his people to him before the final tribulation and Last Judgment begins.
What if these powerful leaders were able to create events in the skies that could trick people into believing that Jesus Christ had come? What if satellites, and computers, and lasers, and sound devices could be linked in such a way that the false appearance of Jesus Christ in the sky could be reflected? What if after such events were accomplished, that large groups of people disappeared from the face of the earth?
What would become of the Christian faithful if they thought they were left behind? How much confusion, panic, disorientation, and despair would remain within the soul of every faithful believer who had looked for the event all of their spiritual lives? How much fighting and discord would come into the gatherings of the Born Agains as they struggled with the confusions of trickery? How quickly would world religion be established as proof that the fundamental and conservative believers were all wrong, as they prepare to establish their own agenda as prophesized in the Bible?
How many Christians would lose their faith if they were tricked into believing that rapture had happened, and they were not wanted by Jesus Christ?
With the technologies of today, it is possible for world powers to create effects that mimic rapture, and we know that powers and forces could benefit from creating illusions of Christ’s coming to manipulate and control the masses with wicked precision.
How do Christians protect themselves from being tricked?
“For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened. Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here [is] Christ, or there; believe [it] not. 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. Behold, I have told you before. 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. 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. For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.” (Mt 24:21-28 AV)
Jesus Christ was specific in his warning and his instructions. If anyone says that Jesus Christ is here or there, do not believe them. There is going to be trickery.
These false Christs are not going to wear orange robes, or hide in bunkers in Montana, or fortify themselves in compounds in Texas. They are not going to wear flowing white robes with angelic voices singing songs of praise, as they televise a ministry of money throughout the world.
THIS IS SO IMPORTANT…the false christs will show great signs and wonders. They will be doing things that will astound everybody, and will easily trick and potentially deceive even the Faithful Christians who are closest to Jesus Christ.
The false christs will appear in the deserts, the places where the Word of God no longer flows. They will appear in the secret places, the places where the Word of God is not spoken.
Jesus Christ says DO NOT GO! Do not go anywhere to look for the coming of Jesus Christ. He assures his faithful that there will be no doubt to his presence, throughout the world, to all people, when he comes.
We must wait patiently and confidently for that great day as we begin to endure the things that have been prophesized to usher in these end times. We must prepare our minds for the things to come, through the study of the Word of God, and the memorization of our Christ’s instructions on how to protect ourselves to the very letter. It is that important!
End Time Christians play a pivotal role in His prophesies, as we are tasked with evangelizing the Word of God throughout the world. Don’t get tricked by flashing lights and sounds or fleshly displays of wonder and signs. Keep walking ahead and forward to King Jesus Christ, and doing the things he has tasked you with until his blessed return.
