Most churches today are not talking about this very much from what I gather. They should be. We are getting very close to the rapture and the second coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The Pastors of those churches need to be getting their flocks ready. Letting their congregations know how to be prepared to insure that they will not be left behind.
Not all Christians will make it and will be left behind. Is this what Matthew 7:22-23 is talking about? It says: 22: 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? 23: And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. I have always wondered what this scripture meant, but after some study I believe this is what this passage is referring to. Some Christians will be left behind and go through the tribulation. They will not end up in hell because they are saved. The Basileia Code by Pastor Doug Clanton explains this in detail. I personally feel this book is a must read.
Many Biblical prophecies have come to pass already. Keep your eye on what is going on in the Middle East regarding Israel, Russia, Syria, Turkey and Iran. Arab nations are ready to attack Israel and are just waiting for the command. I found this out after doing some research on the Middle East. You need to start paying close attention to what is going on in this area of the world. Also, do research on the Biblical prophecies that have already come to pass and ones that are close to becoming a reality. You will learn we are getting very close to the rapture.
Time is short and Jesus is coming soon. Are you ready? We do not know the hour or the day, but if you look at what is going on in the world today it is perfectly obvious the end is near. The world is becoming more violent, technology is advancing at an alarming rate, wars and rumors of wars are more prevalent than any other time in our history, rare diseases are popping up more frequently, and disasters are increasing (drought, hunger, floods, sickness) and severe storms are getting more frequent and more intense.
Wake up people! Pastors you need to become watchman on the wall and warn your flock about how close we are to the end times. Get them ready. Better yet get yourself ready.
