This is a Pre Trib Rapture forum and all are welcome who share their love for Our Beloved's return as He promised.There is no debating on this forum about the rapture or denominational issues.We are here for one another in friendship, love, and prayer as we watch together for Jesus's soon return.
"This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you."
OK. You’re one of those who just wouldn’t trust your life to God and listen to all the warning. Now you’ve missed the rapture and you’ve been left behind.
If you missed the rapture that means you were not ready for Heaven. God judges your heart, your thoughts, your attitude and intentions. God looks at the part of you that is not seen with the naked eye. God took His children straight to Heaven when we were raptured. God only took His children to Heaven. If you were not His that is why you didn't go. There are only good, God filled people in Heaven. If you are not good and God filled, that’s why you are still here.
I can just hear some of you right now saying, “why did God allow this to happen to me?” People always want to blame God for their bad choices. If you have been left behind, it’s your fault, not God’s. God has been telling everyone this day was coming. You just chose not to listen. Look around, the message has been everywhere. You couldn’t miss it if you tried. God is merciful and gracious. He did not try to take anyone by surprise. He gave everyone a warning and a chance to repent.
Now what? I’m not real sure what you might be able to do at this point. I really don’t think there is a completely safe place anywhere for you. That’s why God wanted you to go up in the rapture. But now tribulation has started. You’ll probably want to try to hide away and not come out till the seven years of tribulation is over. Since there will be nuclear wars, earthquakes, storms, and total devastation, maybe under ground or deep in a cave or a mountain would be the best place. You would still run the risk of the mountain or cave collapsing and being buried alive. The Bible says mountains and islands will be swallowed up in earthquakes. The water and air will be contaminated. There’s going to be destruction and fighting and killing going on everywhere.
The first thing you need to do is ask Jesus to come into your heart and forgive you of your sins. No sacrifices are needed, no specific ritual is needed. Just a heart felt sincere confession to Jesus. The blood Jesus shed on the cross was your sin sacrifice, and that is all that is needed. (Go to the "Jesus as Savior" page on this website and pray the sinners prayer) Then ask Him to help you and tell you where to hide to be safe through the tribulation. And be willing to do and go wherever He says. You may not be able to stay in the same place all the time. You might have to move around alot to different places. I’m not sure how much help God is going to give to the one’s who have waited till AFTER the rapture to give their life to Him. I do know that the Bible speaks of the one’s who are beheaded and killed because they profess faith in God and refused the mark of the beast. The only saving God may be doing at this point may just be your soul. Your body may end up dying. It doesn’t matter whether your body dies or not. Just continue to praise and thank God for saving your soul and giving you eternal life in Heaven. Heaven is where your real life is any way. You will spend ETERNITY in Heaven. You have only been on the earth for a few years.
You’re not going to be able to go out shopping casually like you are now. You’ll probably have to live quite primitively if you do not have the mark of the beast. No electric or water or a lot of luxuries you are accustomed to. Gather all the food, water, medicine, antibiotics, tools, artificial light, weapons, clothes, shoes, blankets and a Bible and hide yourself away somewhere in some kind of fallout shelter. If you remain out in society and not except the mark of the beast, you will be killed, beheaded, and destroyed. If you hide away, there’s still a chance you will be killed if not by people then by radiation, natural disasters, or a deadly plague. You’ve got to seal yourself up somewhere to keep bugs, rodents, and wild beasts from reaching you. Seven years is a very long time. If you do survive through all that, you’ll have to have an awful lot of food and water stored or you’ll die of starvation and dehydration. There’s not a lot of foods that will last for seven years without going bad except maybe dry beans and rice. If they’re not stored airtight they could ruin also.
You’ll also need supplies to have a fire for cooking and for warmth during the winter. You’ll need supplies to keep your hideout area clean and sanitized so germs and bacteria don’t contaminate and kill you. Take shovels and garbage bags to bury your waste. Lots of bleach, lime, salt, alcohol, baking soda, and peroxide will probably come in handy. I am sure you will need alot of camping supplies.
Keep a calendar so you’ll know when the seven years is up. Don’t come out of hiding for any reason. It might be best not to listen to a radio or any kind of news from the world, because it will be easy to be deceived by all the lies that will be told. Satan is a master deceiver and liar. He is good at it. You are no match for him alone. You know the day when we were all raptured. Count seven years from then and don’t come out till it’s all over. God Himself will come and get you when it’s over. The bible says many will come and say they are Jesus. Jesus will not come back to this earth until the end of the 7 year tribulation period at the battle of Armageddon. The antichrist and the false prophet will be here deceiving people and killing those who refuse to worship them. Do not believe their lies. Many people believe that God will be merciful and their will be another rapture in the middle of the tribulation period (3 1/2 years), before the Great Tribulation starts.
Don’t give up hope. Don’t communicate with anyone. DON’T ACCEPT THE MARK OF THE BEAST. Hide, pray and stay there till Jesus comes after you.
I know all this sounds extreme. The tribulation is going to be extreme. Don’t make choices NOW that will cause you to miss the rapture. Get ready for the trip. You don’t want to be left behind. Get yourself Rapture-Ready.

Re: Left Behind
This is something that I wrote, for my loved ones. I have a hard copy of it in my left-behind packet, and it's posted on the Internet as well, on this link: My Left Behind Letter.
Please forgive me if I don’t begin this letter with a proper salutation, but since I don’t know who will read it when the time comes, I can’t properly address it to any particular person. Suffice it to say that it is intended for anyone who reads it. It is early January, 2002, as I type this, and early June of the same year as I revise it (and just a few months later--late August--as I post this online version on Geocities).
By the time you read this letter, millions of people will have disappeared from the earth--including me! I’ve printed some information from the Internet, and enclosed a booklet titled “What to Do if You Miss the Rapture!” and a video titled “Have You Been Left Behind?”--all of which will explain what happened, and what you need to do. I’m including that information with the hard-copy version of this letter, along with a pocket-sized New Testament, a separate copy of the Gospel of John, and several salvation tracts. First, though, I want to say a few things.
What’s happened is that God has taken all Christians to Heaven. Every person who received Jesus as Lord and Savior, and every baby and child who’s below the age of accountability (or, rather, not old enough to understand the concept of sin and what it can do) has been taken to be with the Lord. He’s given us brand-new bodies--bodies that will never die, or get sick or hurt. And not only has He called all live Christians to Heaven, He has resurrected every Christian and child who’s died since Jesus ascended to Heaven, 2,000 years ago. He’s given them the same kinds of bodies He’s given us. (If you visit the area cemeteries, you’ll discover that many of the graves are now empty.) Not only are all adult and teenage born-again Christians gone, so are the babies and young children, both the living and the dead. They’ve been taken up, too, as I’ve said.
(BTW, there may be supposed Christians who were left behind. If so, you need to know this: many think they are Christians simply because they try to be good people, or because they go to church, or because they come from Christian families. Only the person who recognizes his sinfulness and makes the decision to accept Jesus’ offer of salvation can go to Heaven, and these people have failed to do that. If you want read about how Jesus saved my soul, click on this link.)
The first thing I want you to know is this: I am not dead! I am in Heaven, yes, but I did not die to go up there. That's right, my soul and spirit are still firmly attached to my body, which is now made of a material that can live in both Heaven and on earth! (It's the same material that Jesus' body is made of.) I am just as alive and well as I was before I left earth, and maybe more so. So please don’t grieve.
The reason I’m typing this is because my concern, now, is for you. You need to know what’s going to happen and what you need to do. The information I printed out and stored in the envelope will explain, better than I can, those things--please read it! All of it! And watch the video, too! It’s vital that you do so, and I’ll tell you why.
What happened to the other Christians and me is something that God predicted 2,000 years ago. Long before that, He predicted that there would be a resurrection of the good and the wicked, but only after Jesus came did He predict that there would be a generation of believers that would never know death, but go to Heaven without dying. We are part of that generation, and I had the privilege of being caught up when the day came. We will be in Heaven for 7 years or more, until Jesus comes back to this planet.
In the meantime, terrible times are coming for the people left on the earth. There will be a 7-year period that the Bible calls the Tribulation, and Jesus Himself said that it would be so bad that unless He cut it short, no one would be saved. Thankfully, Jesus said that, for the sake of those who accept Him during that period, those days will be shortened. Unfortunately, the vast majority of people will die while the Tribulation’s in progress. God’s wrath will be poured out on the world during that time. It will be His last-ditch effort to get people’s attention so they’ll turn to Him; unfortunately, the majority of the people will refuse to listen, and will die and go to Hell as a result.
My plea and my prayer is that you will not be among those people!!! Please heed what I’m writing, what the people who wrote the information I printed out wrote, and what’s explained on the video. I can’t promise that you’ll survive physically, but if you’ll do what I’m telling you, I promise that you will survive spiritually, and then when it’s over, you’ll be resurrected, too--to spend eternity with Jesus. When that happens, we’ll be together again, always.
There will soon be a one-world government, headquartered in Europe, and its leader will be an extremely wicked man that the Bible calls by a number of names--the Antichrist, the Man of Sin, the beast, etc. He will sign a 7-year covenant with Israel that will officially start the Tribulation. The Antichrist will be possessed by Satan himself, will have the ability to deceive people, and will demand worship. And the way he’ll get it is this: he’ll set in motion a system where people have to accept in the hand or forehead something that the Book of Revelation calls a mark. No one will be able to buy, sell, or hold a job without one. To receive the mark, they’ll have to worship the Antichrist and reject all other gods, including the true God. To make it worse, there will come a time when anyone who refuses the mark (which will be either a tattoo or, more likely, a computer implant) will be martyred.
Please, please, don’t--I repeat, do NOT--accept that mark!!!! The Bible makes it very plain that to do so will be an unforgivable sin. Anyone who does will be condemned to Hell for all eternity--they will not be able to accept Jesus as Savior if they’ve accepted the Antichrist’s mark. If you take it, we’ll never be together again, and you will suffer God’s wrath forever. I don’t want that to happen to you; PLEASE heed what I’m saying! I beg you.
When the 7-year period ends, Jesus will return to Earth, and we who were Raptured or resurrected will come with him--on white horses! Jesus will bind the devil and lock him in a bottomless pit for a thousand years. Everyone who accepted the mark and worshipped the Antichrist--those who are still alive when He comes--will die. Those believers in Jesus who survived the Tribulation will go into Jesus’ new Kingdom as mortal believers. They will marry, have children, and hold jobs or own their own businesses. They will live throughout the 1000-year period. The only people who will die during the Millennium will be unbelievers who commit serious sins (some of the believers’ children, grandchildren, etc., will be unbelievers, sad to say).
If you are able to survive till then, you will do the same. If not, you will be resurrected and given a new body, and you’ll be part of the new Kingdom, too. And either way, we’ll be together once more, and it will be a happy time, believe me! Then, after 1,000 years, God will sentence the devil to be trapped forever in a horrible lake of fire (along with everyone who refused to accept Jesus). He’ll destroy this earth, and create a brand-new one and a brand-new universe to go with it. Everyone who had a personal relationship with God will live with God on that new earth forever, in the kind of resurrection bodies those of us who were Raptured or resurrected are enjoying now.
I want you all to be part of this, too--those of you who were left behind--so I’m leaving you this information, both this online version and the hard-copy version. I’m also leaving you my Bibles, my Bible prophecy books (both nonfiction and novels), and my other Christian books, videos, audiocassettes, and CDs. Please read them, watch them, and listen to them; in particular, watch the video I’ve enclosed with the hard-copy version of this letter, read the information in the manila envelope, and read my Bibles--they’re yours now. And pray that God will protect you and guide you, because now as never before, your lives depend on your doing so.
That’s all I can think of to say right now, so I’ll close off here. Now that you’ve read my letter, please read carefully the information I included in the manila envelope with it, and watch the video. The video itself is just 15-20 minutes long, so it won’t take you long to watch it at all. I will pray that God will see you through the times that are coming, so that we can be together again. Until then, know that I love you!
My guess right now is that you are hearing alot of explanations from UFO's to enemy attacks to maybe even a possible leap in evolution or natural selection. I could only imagine the explanations you are hearing. My hope is to give you some answers without making this a thesis.
The short answer, in case you stop reading here:
Jesus has come and has raptured those who have been faithful to him. In Revelation 3, verse 10, it states the following:
10 Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come upon the whole world to test those who live on the earth.
God has taken His own unto Himself. Now the hour of testing will come. You have a choice to make at this point:
What is more important to you right now? Your life or your eternity?
Many natural disasters will continue and some that may even take your breath away.
A man will come on the scene wanting you to swear your allegiance to him instead of embracing a faith in Jesus Christ. In fact, you will see those who trust in Jesus be put to death, starve, sent to prison or even tortured.
I'm going to ask you to do something insane: Become one of those people.
Why? Because your eternity is at stake. Find a Bible. Follow Jesus with what you have left and endure until the end. Your faith in Jesus is the only thing that will save you as this "testing" all plays out. You experience great sorrow and fear for a short time, but Jesus will give you peace through this all because He said it would happen, then your eternity will be one that make this period of time as a brief nightmare.
God loves you. He sent His Son to die on a cross for you because He wants you to be with Him forever.
Tell God you are sorry for your sins. We have all violated God's law as sinners and rightfully, because God is the good judge, we deserve death. But God never wanted it to be that way. He sent His Son to save you from that judgement. Jesus will take the list of sins against you and mark them "Paid in Full".
You are loved and God has always wanted you to be with Him. God is done with sin. The time is short before He returns to completely establish His Kingdom. Accept Him as your Savior, refuse the mark that is coming and you will be with Him forever. He loves you so much.
Your time to choose is almost over, decide now. Making no decision is the same as not accepting Him. The choice is yours.
This letter is being written because I have been corrected and humbled and drawn closer in my daily walk with the Lord Jesus Christ.
Anyone that is/was around me should have witnessed this in me. I am simply trying to be obedient and do what He ask me to do. I have been praying and seeking the Holy Spirit on my life and I have been burdened with this sense that the time of great change that the Lords discussed in the WORD ( Bible) where He retreives the church, the believers, the Christians, those he calls His children, I don't have a day or date to give anyone around me, all I have is my testimony and my words that I have prayed to the Lord for guidance on. Things are about to change.
The urgency has not left me on this day of 4/06/07, many other believers around the world and nearby have similar experiences and awakenings with the Lord Jesus, they are sharing them on the world wide web, and they are sharing them at their churches, and with the families as they are lead to by God.
Dreams, visions, prayers, confirmations, so many and ao many are trying to convey it now even as I write this down, I have shared my own as well.
The Lord I feel has lead me to write this letter, so in case of others that will in no doubt come across it and all our other belonings, can read it and know what now is true.
If you are reading this letter, and many or millions of people have been taken off the earth and the world is in disarray, then that means you have been left behind from the gathering, the rapture of the church, the body of believers as they stood at that moment. Maybe because if you were a Christian and you are surprised that you did get left, maybe your relationship was not as it should have been with Jesus Christ. If you were not a Christian then that explains why you were left also.
Salvation is to be walked out daily, meaning, like all relationships in life, they have to be tended to daily, not only on a Sunday, for those that do/did go to church, God wants a intimate relationship with the people HE has made. Nothing short will DO. He is to be number one.
I too was walking in a very misty haze of my salvation. I too thought just because I believed and was saved all was ok, the rest of life did not matter. Until the Lord Jesus led me to receive and read another persons powerful testimony, it changed my heart, and my soul and my mind, and it made me realize I needed to renew my relationship my very salvation with Christ. I repented and asked Him to forgive me and to create a pure heart and mind in me.
I have picked the WORD back up and read it daily and continue to read it and see more of what God wants me to see now, all confirming what His warnings are about.
To get to the main reason for this letter:
If your still here on earth after the Lord takes many off you need to really understand the WORD now more than ever, you can be saved still, but its going to require your life, you must NOT conform to anyone of anything, take no marks, or pledges. Careful not to be deceived, its an awful situation you are in now. It may come to you loosing your life, being slain, for you must not forsake your confession unto Jesus Christ.
Remember they can kill the body but not the spirit
( your soul) to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. All of this is in your Bible, find a Bible read it pray, and find other believers like you. Cling together now, wintess to others.
It grieves my soul to think any of my family or friends to be in this situation, I want us all and wanted us all to be able to go up with HIM together. But I do not have any control or even knowledge of what each of them really hides in their heart concerning the Lord Jesus Christ.
I am not a perfect woman, I have made many terible mistakes and bad choices, but because of what Jesus Christ did and only because of his blood and sacrifice, and me realizing it and confessing it and accepting it am I able to even say I am his daughter, I love HIM and thankfully when He again reached out to me to correct me and get me right with Him and I am thankful I listened to my warning.
For God always warns His children before he does something if you did not listen to this, then you have to admit that to yourself that you were wrong, repent, NOW. I don't know whom will read this letter, but I had to write it because I felt the Lord wanted me too. date written 4/06/07
In Christ Name, Amen...........................Brenda Minney
MY NAME IS VALERIE, I AM BUT A HUMBLE SERVANT OF THE LORD. WHEN YOU ARE READING THIS, THE RAPTURE MIGHT HAVE ALREADY TAKEN PLACE AND I HAVE VANISHED AND GONE TO HEAVEN TO BE WITH MY BELOVED LORD, THE ONE AND ONLY SAVIOR; JESUS CHRIST. MANY LIKE MYSELF HAVE VANISHED ALSO, AND WE ARE IN HEAVEN WITH THE LORD. WE WILL RETURN WITH THE LORD AT THE FINALLY BATTLE OF ARMAGEDDON, ALONG WITH THE LORD JESUS CHRIST WHOM WILL BE VICTORIOUS. JESUS WILL SET UP HIS KINGDOM ON EARTH AND WILL RULE AND REIGN FROM JERUSALEM. HE WILL BRING TRUE PEACE TO THE EARTH AT LONG LAST. HE IS THE PRINCE OF PEACE, AND THE KING OF KINGS.
THEREFORE, TAKE HEART! READ THE FOLLOWING, FOR IT MAY DICTATE WHERE YOU WILL SPEND ETERNITY.
YOU MAY HAVE TO LOOSE YOUR LIFE, BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO SPEND "ETERNITY IN HELL". HOWEVER, YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO HIDE, AND SURVIVE ON THE FOOD AND WATER WHICH MANY WHOM HAVE VANISHED HAVE STORED IN THEIR HOMES.
THERE WILL BE MANY LETTERS, BOOKS, VIDEOS, ETC. ETC.,ON THE RAPTURE, BUT BEST OF ALL THERE WILL BE BIBLES EXPLAINING WHAT TOOK PLACE. WHAT WILL CONTINUE TO TAKE PLACE UNTIL THE LORD RETURNS TO EARTH AT HIS SECOND COMING. LOOK IN THE BOOK OF REVELATION; THE LAST BOOK IN THE BIBLE.
IT'S NOT TOO LATE TO GET RIGHT WITH THE LORD; SATAN WILL TRY TO CONVINCE YOU THAT IT IS; BUT IN TRUTH YOU STILL HAVE A CHANCE.
JESUS HOLDS THE KEY, TO HEAVEN!
ARE YOU CONCERNED WHERE YOU, YOUR LOVED ONES WHOM HAVE ALSO BEEN LEFT BEHIND; WILL SPEND ETERNITY? IN THE FIRES AND BRIMESTONE IN HELL? WILL IT BE IN HEAVEN? WHERE EYE HAS NOT SEEN NOR EAR HAS NOT HEARD WHAT THE LORD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHOM LOVE THEM.
IF YOU WANT TO GO TO HEAVEN, PRAY THE SINNERS PRAYER BELOW; AND TELL OTHERS TO DO LIKEWISE. DO NOT WORSHIP THE ANTI-CHRIST OR HIS IMAGE; AND DO NOT TAKE A MARK (CHIP)IMPLANT WHICH IS THE MARK OF THE BEAST 666. FOR DOING SO THERE IS NO HOPE FOR YOU, YOU'RE CONDEMED TO HELL.
STILL TIME FOR YOU TO GET RIGHT WITH THE LORD; RIGHT NOW TODAY, THIS VERY MOMENT! THIS MAY BE YOUR VERY LAST CHANCE, YOU DON'T KNOW IF YOU ARE GOING TO TAKE YOUR NEXT BREATH OR NOT; ONLY GOD DOES!
PRAY THE SINNERS PRAY, WITH A SINCERE HEART; FOR THE LORD KNOWS THE HEARTS OF ALL.
"LORD GOD BE MERCIFUL TO ME A SINNER, FOR CHRIST'S SAKE. I'M SO SORRY I HAVE SINNED AGAINST YOU. I REPENT OF MY WAYS AND ASK YOU TO FORGIVE ME LORD AND CLEANS ME WITH YOUR PRECIOUS BLOOD. JESUS COME INTO MY HEART AND BE MY LORD AND SAVIOR. LEAD ME TO EVERLASTING LIFE WITH YOU AND ALL THE ANGELS AND SAINTS, IN YOUR PRECIOUS NAME I PRAY. AMEN & AMEN!"
THIS IS THE TIME TO GET RIGHT WITH GOD; TOMORROW MAY BE TO LATE; FOR NO ONE KNOWS THE DAY THE LORD MAY CALL THEM HOME BY DEATH AND THE GRAVE. FOR THE ANTI-CHRIST AND HIS COHORTS MAY TAKE YOUR LIFE THIS VERY DAY.
THE TRIBULATION WILL LAST 7 YEARS! TRY TO GATHER WITH OTHER BORN AGAIN CHRISTIANS IN SECRET, AND PRAY FOR GOD'S GUIDANCE TO GIVE YOU WISDOM TO SURVIVE. BE PREPARED AT ALL TIMES, TO LEAVE YOUR SURROUNDINGS AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT AND MOVE ON. REMEMBER YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO BUY OR SELL WITHOUT THE MARK OF THE BEAST, SO BE RESOURCEFUL.
JESUS NEVER PROMISED US THAT OUR LIVES WOULD BE EASY, AS SO MANY WHOM ARE IN HEAVEN CAN ATTEST TO THEIR LIVES HERE ON EARTH. YET JESUS DID SAY IT WOULD BE WORTH IT.
IF YOU HAVE ACCEPTED THE LORD, AND PRAYED THE SINNERS PRAY; YOU ARE NOW HEAVEN BOUND! JESUS IS YOUR LORD AND SAVIOR, AND SHOULD YOU DIE, YOU'LL BE IN THE MOST WONDERFUL, AWESOME PLACE THAT EXISTS!
FEAR NOT WHAT MAN CAN DO TO YOU, FEAR WHAT THE LORD GOD COULD DO!
WHAT BENEFITS A MAN IF HE GAINS THE WHOLE WORLD, BUT LOOSES HIS SOUL TO HELL AND D A M N A T I O N !
HOPING TO SEE YOU IN HEAVEN ONE DAY!
LORD THIS IS FOR YOUR HONOR AND GLORY!
IN JESUS' LOVE,

Re: Left Behind
A Letter Written To Those Left On The Earth
A Letter Written To Those Left On The Earth
Following The Rapture Of The Church
Greetings. As you read this letter, I can only imagine the fear and despair you face, for this is being written for viewing only after the disappearance of God's people from the earth. The fact that you are reading this letter indicates that you have been left behind. You are no doubt stunned, shocked, afraid, and remorseful. I would like you to consider what I have to say here as instructions for life following Christ's rapture of His church - which is what has happened. Anyone you know or knew of who had placed his or her trust in Christ alone for salvation has been taken to Heaven by Christ.
Let me show you from the Bible exactly what has happened. You won't need this proof by now, because you will have experienced the most shocking event of history. But as this letter was written beforehand and I am confident that I will be gone, ask yourself, how did he know? Here's how, from 1 Corinthians 15:51-57. This is what the great missionary evangelist, the apostle Paul, wrote to the Christians at the church in the city of Corinth:
Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed - in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: `Death is swallowed up in victory. O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory?' The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Let me paraphrase some of that so you'll understand it clearly. When Paul says we shall not all sleep, he means that we shall not all die. And he's saying that this corruptible being (mortal human being) must put on an incorruptible body which is to last for all of eternity. When these things have happened, when the Christians who have already died and those that are still living receive their immortal bodies, the rapture of the church will have taken place.
Every person who believed in and accepted the sacrificial death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ has anticipated His glorious return for them. And as you read this letter you can be assured that these believers have already seen the fulfillment of Christ's promise when He said: "I will come again and receive you unto Myself; that where I am, there you may be also."
I believe that all such people were literally taken from the earth, leaving everything material behind. If you have discovered that millions of people are missing and that babies and children have vanished, you know what I am saying is true. Up to a certain age, which is probably different for each individual, we believe God will not hold a child accountable for a decision that must be made with heart and mind, fully cognizant of the ramifications. You may also find that unborn children have disappeared from their mothers' wombs. I can only imagine the pain and heartache of a world without precious children, and the deep despair of parents who will miss them so.
Paul's prophetic letter to the Corinthians said this would occur in the twinkling of an eye. You may have seen a loved one standing before you suddenly disappear. I don't envy you that shock.
The Bible says that men's hearts will fail them for fear. That means to me that there will be heart attacks due to shock. People will commit suicide in their despair. And you now know of the chaos that will result from Christians disappearing from various modes of transportation, with the loss of firefighters and police officers and emergency workers of all sorts. Cars will drive off of roads and planes will fall from the sky. There will be such wreckage that it may takes weeks or even months to clean up the initial disasters caused by Christ's rapture of the church.
Depending on when you're reading this letter, you may have already found that martial law is in effect in many places, emergency measures trying to keep evil elements from looting and fighting over the spoils of what is left. Governments will tumble and there will be international disorder.
You may wonder why this has happened. Some believe this is the judgment of God on an ungodly world. Actually, His judgment will be pronounced onto the Earth following the rapture. Strange as this may sound to you, this judgment is God's final effort to get the attention of every person who has ignored or rejected Him. He is allowing a vast period of trial and tribulation to come to those of you who remain. He has removed His church from a corrupt world that seeks its own way, its own pleasures, and its own ends.
I believe God's purpose in this is to allow those who remain to take stock of themselves and leave their frantic search for pleasure and self-fulfillment, and turn to the Bible for truth and to Christ for salvation.
Let me encourage you that your loved ones, your children and infants, your friends, and your acquaintances have not been snatched away by some evil force or some invasion from outer space. That will likely be a common explanation. What sounded ludicrous to you before might sound logical now, but it is not. Even if evidence, such as video- or audiotapes show that your loved ones are indeed alive and either on some form of space station or on some other planet, you can be sure that this evidence is fabricated by those who have come to power following the disappearance of Christ's church.
With that said, let me warn you personally to beware of a leader who may emerge from Europe. He will be a very charismatic man who will bring peace out of the chaos that will follow the rapture. He will likely arise from obscurity to become a world leader - similar to Hitler's rise from obscurity. His first task will be to sign a peace agreement with the nation of Israel - God's chosen people. In the last months of the 20th century and the first months of the year 2000 the news is filled with the inability of man to sign this peace agreement. Bible prophecy teaches that this world leader will accomplish what no other man could. He will then order the rebuilding of the temple in Jerusalem and permit the Jewish people to resume their ancient sacrifices. There will then be a total of 31/2 years of unprecedented peace among all the nations of the Earth. This peace will also be realized within the current world's churches as he causes all of the Earth's religions to be encapsulated in a one-world religion. This religion will likely have as its base the church system of Rome.
A great time of famine will then begin on the Earth. Even in countries that have never been touched by mass starvation, there will be very little to eat and drink. So bad will these days become that it will take one day's wages to feed one person.
This leader will also organize the world's currencies into one form of commerce. In order to purchase anything people will have to take a mark on either their foreheads or right hands. This mark will include the numbers 666 is some form - whether as a bar code or some other variation. Anyone taking this mark will be forever separating themselves from God's gift of salvation. Whatever you do, even unto physical death, do not allow this mark to come upon you or your family/friends. Those not taking the mark will be arrested and likely put to death. Endure this with the knowledge that it was predicted to you before it occurred. The same God who predicted this will be awaiting your arrival in the kingdom of Heaven if you are forced to endure unto physical death.
Following the 31/2 years of peace, this leader will receive some form of a mortal wound to his head and will be declared dead. However, he will recover and dramatically change the world scene. He will disband the one-world church and will declare himself to be God. He will stop the Jewish sacrifices in the Jerusalem temple and break his promise of peace with the nation of Israel. This will usher in 31/2 years of unprecedented war and turmoil unlike anything the world has ever seen or will ever see again. In fact, the Earth and its resources will become so depleted that only with the return of Christ at the end of the second 31/2 years could the Earth be salvaged.
The self-declared world leader will promise strength and peace and security, but the Bible says he will speak out blasphemies against God and will persecute and seek to destroy the saints of the Most High. This person is known in the Bible as the Antichrist. He will make many promises, but he will not keep them. You must trust in the promises of God Almighty through His Son, Jesus Christ.
It doesn't make any difference, at this point, why you're still on earth. You may have been too selfish or prideful or busy, or perhaps you simply didn't take the time to examine the claims of Christ for yourself. The point now is, you have another chance. Don't miss it.
The disappearance of the saints and children, the chaos left behind, and the despairing of the heartbroken are evidence that what I'm saying is true. Pray that God will help you. Receive His salvation gift right now. And resist the lies and efforts of the Antichrist, who is sure to rise up soon. Remember, he will deceive many. Don't be counted among them.
Bible prophecy is history written in advance. I urge you to find books on this subject or find people who may have been experts in this area but who for some reason did not receive Christ before and were left behind. Study so you'll know what is coming and you can be prepared.
God wants to forgive your sins and assure you of Heaven. Listen to Ezekiel 33:11: "I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from his way and live."
If you accept God's message of salvation, His Holy Spirit will come unto you and make you spiritually born anew. You don't need to understand all this theologically. You can become a child of God by praying to Him right now as I lead you. Pray this prayer with me.
Heavenly Father, have mercy upon me, a sinner. But I believe in my heart that you sent Your Son, Jesus Christ, to die on a cross for the forgiveness of my sins. And that He rose from the dead into new life. I believe and accept the sacrifice of Jesus for the sake of my sins, and I ask You now to forgive me of all my sins and to raise me into new life in Jesus.
Your Word says You'll turn no one away, and that includes me. Therefore, I know You've heard me, and I know You've answered me, and I know I'm saved.
Jesus, please come into my heart and fill me with Your love. I turn my life over to You and ask You to fill me with Your Holy Spirit. Please become the Lord of my life, and lead me into the paths of life that You created for me even before I was born.
Thank You, Jesus, for Your gift of salvation. Thank You for Your forgiveness. Amen.
If you were genuine, you are saved, born again, a child of God. It is now my prayer that you be strengthened and guided by His Holy Spirit during the cataclysmic events that are about to unfold throughout the world. Remember, this is everyone's last chance to escape eternal separation from God and His love. Like you, others will be searching for answers to what is happening in every family, in every city, in every country on Earth. Shine like a righteous light before men. Stand strong if you are required to give your mortal life for the sake of Christ. Remember that the moment you close your eyes on this life you will open them again in the presence of Jesus Himself. He, and all of your missing loved ones and acquaintances, and myself, will be waiting to greet you and welcome you to the Kingdom of Heaven.
May God richly bless, guide, and strengthen you through the trials that are being poured out onto the world. May He make His light to shine through you into a world He desperately wants to reconcile to Himself. May you be a great soul winner in these final days of His harvest, and may you be rejoined to your loved ones as soon as His will permits.
Amen.
Please print this letter out. Make copies and leave them wherever the Lord directs.

Re: Left Behind
Do you have a copy of that video, too? Someone ordered me a copy from--I think it was one of the links on the Left Behind Web site, where such orders can be placed. The video is based on the fictional video that Pastor Vernon Billings in the novel, "Left Behind," made to bring those who were going to be left behind to a saving knowledge of Jesus. The post above includes what was said on the video, word by word.
Unfortunately, the video is no longer being made, but it's possible that secondhand copies could be ordered through Amazon.com or some other such agency.
Here is a left behind letter that my husband and I crafted. It is also set up to go out through email after the rapture through a delayed send option I have on my computer. If I'm not around to change the date, the email will go out. If you're interested in adding your loved ones to my email blast please let me know.
LAST DAYS SURVIVAL LETTER
Dear Friend,
If you are getting this e-mail it is because we are no longer with you. We have been taken to heaven to be with our Lord Jesus Christ. You might still be in a state of shock and terrified from the events that have happened, but take hope in the message we are sending you. If you have mistakenly received this letter and the cataclysmic event that we call “the rapture” hasn’t happened, it is because there was a problem with the email server and this message was sent early; however you still need to hear this message because these events are going to occur very, very soon.
Our intent is to help give you an understanding of the things that have happened and what is to come as foretold in the Bible. Our prayer is that we are able to help you prepare your heart with the courage and faith you will need for the decisions facing you in the near future. Our prayer is that you make the right decisions that lead to eternal life and that you will not be deceived by the evil one.
What is the rapture?
“The rapture” is a term used to describe an event in the Bible where God’s people are called up to Jesus Christ and taken from Earth before the great tribulation. It describes a “catching away” of God’s people to heaven. The Bible says: “That night two people will be asleep in one bed; one will be taken, the other left. Two women will be grinding flour together at the mill; one will be taken, the other left.” (Luke 17:34-36); “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven without a shout…and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air.” (1 Thessalonians 2:16-17). Of course the disappearance of so many people is probably causing mass hysteria and chaos. There may be a few false theories put out regarding what has happened. Most, if not all of it, will be wrong! The people who are now missing were taken to heaven by Jesus Christ. The Lord sent out His warning that this would happen and commanded His people to watch and be ready. (Matthew 25:13)
What will happen next?
You are entering the darkest period of human history. A world ruler, called the antichrist, will come to power and he will promise to bring peace, stability and prosperity. He has or will suffer a mortal wound but will recover. There may be a period of relative peace; it may seem that things are coming together and what the antichrist is doing is working; don’t be fooled. He will enforce a one-world religion and government. He will be empowered by satan and will be aided by a powerful false prophet who will seem to perform miraculous signs and wonders. He will force the entire world to operate in a one-world economy by which anyone who wishes to buy or sell must take his “mark” in their right hand or forehead (Revelation 13:11-18). This mark will be or will include the number 666. This mark will represent allegiance to and trust in this man and his system for sustenance. It will also be regarded as an act of worship to acknowledge him as God. Nearly everyone who refuses to accept his mark and refuses to worship him will be persecuted, hunted down, tortured and brutally murdered.
What are my choices? You have 2 choices at this point:
Option #1: When it becomes mandatory that all people take the “mark of the beast” you can take the mark and worship the antichrist / idol and you will not be persecuted and you may even prosper like never before. However, the Bible warns that anyone who willingly takes the mark and worships the antichrist and/or his image will be cast into a lake of fire forever; there will be no forgiveness (Revelation 14:11).
Option #2: Your other choice is to resist the antichrist by not worshiping him and not willingly accepting his mark on your hand or forehead and face the likely persecution, torture and death. However before you do anything, the most important thing you can do right now is to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior (also see “What should I do?”).
How long will this last?
The good news is that this period of time called “the great tribulation” won’t last long. Only 3.5 to 7 years and it is possible that the time will be “cut short”. After this tribulation, wrath and judgment, the Lord will visibly return to the earth in ALL His glory, with His angels and saints and will completely annihilate the antichrist and his armies (Revelation 19:11-21). After that, the Lord Jesus will establish God’s kingdom on Earth for 1000 years. If you persevere and are faithful to the end, even unto death, you too will be resurrected and partake in God’s coming kingdom.
What should I do?
1. If you are an unbeliever or believe in a religion other than Biblical Christianity: Realize that you are a sinner and that your sin separates you from God. God wants you to be reconciled to Him but there is nothing you can do to make yourself good enough to be accepted by God, who is perfect and holy. Only Jesus (God – the Son) was perfect; and through His death, He took your place, and paid the price for your sins so that you could receive eternal life and salvation from the judgment you deserve. Admit you are a sinner, turn from your sins and ask Jesus to forgive you and receive Him as your Lord and Savior (Romans 10:9-10). If you belong to a religion that teaches any other “gospel”, you believe in a lie! There is NO religion, church, or prophet who can save you – ONLY FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST HIMSELF. And only the Judeo-Christian Bible is the Word of God to this world. You must renounce all other beliefs, “bibles” and “paths to God” and accept this one true gospel. You were left behind because you did not accept Jesus’ true message of salvation. This is your final warning and your last chance. “Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved”! (Acts 4:12)
2. If you are a Christian and were left behind: You were lukewarm and/or disobedient and living in some type of sin before God. The Bible teaches that without holiness, no one can see the Lord. You cannot be a true Christian merely by the words of your mouth, you must live in purity and obedience to God’s word. And God has allowed us to let you know that, even though you missed the rapture, there is still hope for you. You need to repent of all your sins and decide that you’re not going to compromise anymore. This includes bitterness, gossip, lying, pride, lust, laziness, idolatry, hypocrisy, unbelief, dishonesty, cheating, vows & debts treated flippantly, etc. This is your last chance to get right. God is not mocked; sinful and disobedient Christians will have no share in the Kingdom of God. (Matthew 25:26-30)
3. Listen: Do not worship the antichrist and/or his idol. He will offer peace that seems to come to pass. He and his false prophet will have the power to deceive the entire world. He will be able to perform “so-called” miracles to deceive, even God’s people, if possible. He will persecute all who refuse to worship him. You will have to stand firm in your commitment to God. God will severely punish all who worship the antichrist; there will be no forgiveness.
4. Listen: Do not willingly take the mark – at all costs, even unto death. The antichrist will make it mandatory that the only way to buy and sell anything will be by taking his mark on the forehead or right hand. The Bible can be interpreted that, although pressured and threatened, you will have a choice to accept or refuse this mark. The Bible teaches that those who refuse will likely be martyred. The Bible can also be interpreted that the mark could be physically forced upon you against your will. There could be a difference between “having the mark” and “receiving the mark” as a matter of the heart. If the mark is forced on you against your will, remove it if you can; you MUST refuse to accept any benefits associated with having the mark and you MUST refuse to worship the antichrist and/or his idol. “Do not fear those who can kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear Him (GOD) who, after He has killed, has the power to cast into hell.” (Luke 12:5). You will pay a high price for your faith. It will not be easy but it will be worth whatever you must endure and sacrifice. Revelation 20:4 says: “Then I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their witness to Jesus and for the word of God, who had not worshiped the beast, or his image, and had not received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands. AND THEY LIVED AND REIGNED WITH CHRIST FOR A THOUSAND YEARS”!!! (Emphasis mine).
No amount of suffering can compare to your heavenly reward; it is temporary. Take heart and remember that Jesus suffered and was brutally killed for you. This enemy will soon be punished!
Ask God to forgive you; accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior and He will receive you. Worship God and read your Bible everyday; listen to and study anything that teaches the truth about Jesus and the Word of God. Pray and trust God to give you strength and provide for your needs, even if you have to struggle or go hungry for a while. Carefully network with other believers and warn others as well. Pass this message on! Remember that the beast’s days are numbered! He will soon be destroyed by the coming of the Lord and cast into the lake of fire forever!!! Each day brings you closer to the glorious coming of the Lord and you will receive a great reward!
If you are reading this shortly after the rapture, quickly do what you can to honestly get as much reserves of food, WATER and clothing as you can for you and your family before everyone is forced to take the mark. Learn to live as naturally as possible without relying on the world system and consume conservatively; lay low. Get seeds for food. There are plenty of things that are edible from the earth that you don’t have to buy at the store. Other things to stock up on will be medications, batteries, artificial light, rubbing alcohol, bleach, weapons, water purification drops, wipes, camping supplies, blankets, matches, can goods w/ can opener, and the like. If you find homes that are completely abandoned due to the rapture, you have permission to take what’s left; it’s yours. You may want to try to find a hiding place, like an underground fall out shelter or cave, away from urban areas if you can. However, no place may be “safe” from war, attacks, disease, nuclear radiation, wild animals, bad weather, etc. If you have children to care for our prayers are with you; don’t worry about putting them back in school – teach them about the days you’re in, about faith in Jesus Christ and their heavenly home. If your children are missing with the rapture, they are safe with us; the Lord took them. Be thankful and realize that you will be able to see them again in God’s kingdom.
As we write this letter, our hearts and prayers go out to all who may be reading this letter during the tribulation. We wish you would have heeded God’s messages and warnings ahead of time to escape this “hour of trial”. However, being a martyr may be your escape and you will never be hurt by anything again (suicide, by the way, is a sin). As a tribulation saint, we look forward to seeing you in heaven and receiving you with a hero’s welcome. You are not alone.

HERE'S A START BELOW! I'LL BE ADDING MORE AS TIME GOES ON, AND I HOPE THAT DAVELOVESJESUS WILL REPOST THE SINNERS PRAYER WHICH WAS POSTED ON THE ORIGINAL THREAD AND OTHERS AS WELL. THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING, THAT I AM HUMAN AFTER ALL, AND DO MAKE MISTAKES LIKE THE REST OF YOU. NEVERTHELESS, I PRAY THAT THIS WILL ENCOURAGE THOSE WHOM VISIT HERE AND ARE LOOKING FOR A RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS, THIS THREAD AND THE SINNERS PRAYER, IS THE PLACE TO START A BRAND NEW LIFE IN CHRIST.
READ AND BE BLESSED!
Jesus As Savior
Every single person is born into this world as a sinner. (Read Romans 5:12-21) At some point in every person's life, you must make a choice to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior. You can not get into Heaven because your parents go to church, or your Dad is a preacher or because you think you are a good, nice person.The earlier in life you receive Jesus the better, however it is never too late. If you are still breathing and still alive, you can accept Jesus as Savior. If you have never prayed the sinners prayer, and you have not accepted Jesus as Savior then you are going to Hell when you die. If your church or denomination does not state that you must accept Jesus as Savior to be saved then you are not going to the right church, you are merely a member of a social group. Just believing in God is not good enough. The bible says in James 2:19, that "even the devils believe in God and tremble". God does not help you in life and listen to you, and you are not going to Heaven if you have not accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. You will miss the rapture in 2007 and be left here to be destroyed during the tribulation.
There are five easy steps to accepting Jesus as Savior.
1. Acknowledge you are a sinner. Romans 3:23(KJV), “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.” We we are all born into this world as a sinner. At some point in our lives, we must be born again spiritually, to escape hell. If we never accept Jesus as Savior during our lives, then when we die, we go to Hell.
2. Call out to Jesus for help. God said in Acts 2:21(KJV), ” Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Just call on Jesus. He is your answer to all your problems. He will help you if you ask Him. He is ready and willing.
3. Repent your sins. Acts 3:19(KJV), “Repent ye therefore and be converted that your sins may be blotted out.” Repentance is a decision to do better. It is a change of mind, change of heart, and a change of action.
4. Believe in Jesus. John 3:16(KJV), “For so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”
5. Confession Romans 10:9&10(NCV), "If you use your mouth to say "Jesus is Lord" and if you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead, you will be saved. We believe with our hearts and so we are made right with God. And we use our mouths to say that we believe, and so we are saved."
If you believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead and He is Lord and now lives at the right hand of God, and if you receive the blood sacrifice Jesus made for your sins then you will be saved. I believe praying this prayer with all your heart is the FIRST step to your confession.
Pray this prayer:
“Jesus I am a sinner. Save me, help me, I need you. I know You died on the cross for my sins, rose from the dead and now live at the right hand of God. I choose to live my life according to Your Word, the Bible. Thank you for saving me. Thank you for writing my name down in the Lambs book of Life. Jesus I receive you as Lord of my life. Jesus name, Amen.”
You are now born again, and a child of God. You are ready for the rapture in 2007.

Hi Stephen:
I was so happy to see you once again, but I cried when you left. You have lost more weight and you look like you weigh about 80 lbs. If that by now. I cried because it hurt me to see you like that, and to think that I may never see you alive again. I cried because you have pushed your own family away from you thinking it would be easier for you to die this way. I love you so much, and I continue to pray for you daily, and trusting God for you . My heart is so broken to think that you could die anytime now, and I don’t know if I could bear the thought where you would spend eternity. You have suffered so much here, and I don’t want to think of you suffering for eternity too. Oh Stephen, I know how sick you are and I know you don’t have much time left. I also know that there are only two places where one soul goes after death. It’s either heaven or hell; and there are no second chances. The choice is yours, choose Life or choose Death and torture, there are no other choices that exist. Heaven has many levels and so does hell as far as rewards or punishment is concerned. I so want you to have Heaven, being healthy, happy, and free of all pain, worry and sorrow. But most of all I want you to feel God’s Love, it’s like no other love you have ever felt, it’s Awesome and it’s so Comforting and Complete.
I can’t stand to think that after all you have suffered here, you would choose to enter further suffering in Hell, for eternity. More, pain, sorrow, heartbreak, hopelessness, no end in sight. Watching others being tortured and suffering along with experiencing your own. It’s mind boggling it’s too horrific to dwell on, and yet it is as real, as the life you are now experiencing here on earth.
It all has to do with the choices we make here on earth while we are still alive.
Jesus died on the cross for all sinners, so that we could be reconciled with God the Father once again. It’s a free gift He has given us, life eternal with the Father in Heaven; and all we have to do is accept that gift of salvation willingly and change our ways with God‘s help. Jesus suffered a horrific death on the cross, so that we will have an end to our suffering. Either we are healed here on earth or we are healed in Heaven, no more tears, no more, suffering every again. Yet it is our own choice. If we refuse the Lord’s sacrifice on the cross, then we have made our own choice and have no one to blame but ourselves; especially, when we are warned of the dire consequences. Jesus spoke about hell so no matter what some may say; it does exist.
I’m praying that before you leave this world, God will open you heart and mind to the truth, and the reality of what lies ahead, so that you will accept the Lord Jesus into your heart, and then you’ll have nothing to fear or worry about when you life is over on earth.
I know when that day comes, and it will come for all of us one day, when we have to leave this life behind, and enter the afterlife; It will be hard enough to bear the sorrow of your death, but harder than that, it would be totally heartbreaking for me, knowing that your suffering would continue, and I would never be reunited with you ever again.
So please don’t’ put it off any longer, you’re very ill, and your time is short Stephen.
Receive the gift of eternal life with the God the Father today, knowing that you can face tomorrow, because Jesus lives inside you. My heart would rejoice to know that you have done so, and it would give me God’s gift of peace that surpasses all understanding.
Please read the following….and Please pray the Sinners Prayer. Are you aware, that Mom, and Dad prayed it before they died!
So when that day comes, and you open your eyes, let your eyes see the beauty of heaven, and not the horror of hell.
Pray this prayer:
“Jesus I am a sinner. I’m sorry , forgive me Lord, Save me, help me, I need you. I know You died on the cross for my sins, rose from the dead and now live at the right hand of God. I choose to live my life according to Your Holy Words with your help and guidance. I accept the sacrifice you made on the cross, and I, Thank you for saving me. Thank you for writing my name down in the Lambs book of Life. Jesus I receive you as Lord of my life. Jesus name, Amen.”
You are now born again, and a child of God, and your destination is heaven!
Love You!
Your Sister,
Valerie

How to Know God
Did you know that you were created to have a loving relationship with God? He is patiently and lovingly waiting for you to respond to His invitation to salvation. Yes, you can receive forgiveness for your sins and assurance of eternal life through faith in His only Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. "God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved" (John 3:16-17). "Now this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent" (John 17:3).
You may be asking yourself: "How can I know God?" Man is able to know the true and living God through His Word (that is, the Bible). The Bible reveals God's character and His plan for mankind. It is through reading His Word that we come to a knowledge of the righteousness of God and that which He requires of us.
What is it that prevents us from personally knowing God? Our sin has separated us from God — our corruption is to such a degree that we cannot know Him personally and cannot experience His love. God's Word says, "All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" (Romans 3:23). Man was created to have fellowship with God, but because of his sin (i.e., anything that is against the righteousness revealed in God's Law) he is prevented from that fellowship. This includes anything less than perfect obedience to God's commands.
"The wages of sin is death" (Romans 6:23a). The ultimate result of this death is an eternity in Hell. This spiritual death forces a separation from God. Man is sinful and God is holy. This creates a gulf unbridgeable by man making that intended fellowship impossible. The only solution is a divine bridge — that bridge is Christ.
God created a way by sending His Son to pay the price for our sin. "God demonstrated His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8). He died in our place; He who knew no sin became sin for us. This removed our burden of sin and allows us to enter into that desired fellowship if we follow His way.
He is the only way. Jesus said "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me" (John 14:6).
It is not just enough that you know these truths. We must individually place our trust in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. It is by repenting of our sins and believing on Christ that we can know God personally and experience His love.
"But as many as receive Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name" (John 1:12).
"For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them" (Ephesians 2:8-10).
"Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit" (Acts 2:38).
You can receive Jesus Christ right now by faith. "If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made to salvation" (Romans 10:9-10).
If you now believe on God and place your faith in His Son, congratulations — and welcome to His family. We, all being His children, share in a heavenly inheritance! We are heirs to heaven and are promised the eternal pleasure of glorifying God. As our life here on earth progresses, God will continue to work in our hearts. We are daily being conformed to the image of Christ, Himself. We will begin to live lives of righteousness. Obedience to God will not be a burden to us, but rather a joy.
You may wonder, now that you are a Christian, "What now?" Our greatest recommendation for believers, new and old, is fourfold: 1) find a church so you might hear the preaching of the Word and rejoice in the fellowship of other Christians, 2) study the Bible for that is where we learn of God and His plans, 3) pray to Him to strengthen your faith and increase your love toward Him, and 4) enjoy the blessings given by God in the heavenly ordained sacraments: baptism and the Lord's Supper. All of these will work to encourage and build upon your faith. If you have any questions, search the Scriptures, ask your Pastor, or please feel free to ask us.

MJ Martin (6 Oct 2007) 5 DOVES SITE
The Righteousness of God:
Anyone who confesses with his mouth Jesus as Lord, and believes in his heart that God raised him from the dead, shall be saved. For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:9,10.
All who have faith in the Lord Jesus Christ are the righteousness of God by faith. Romans 3:21,22.
Who saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was centered unto him for righteousness. Now it was not written for his sake alone, that righteousness was imputed to him; But for us also to whom it (righteousness) shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justifications. Romans 4:3, 23-25 also 2 Cor. 5:21; Gal 2:16; 3: 6-9; Phil. 3:9.
If Christ be in you; you are a child of God the righteousness of God by faith.
To those who deny themselves of the grace of God accounting themselves greater than the word of God by not accepting the righteousness of God by faith.
It is far greater than Esau's giving up his natural birth right than giving up your spiritual birth right. To be born again you have been called, justified and glorified by God the only way to eternal life. If you were not His righteousness by faith He could not accept you for God can not deny Himself for He is pure, righteous, and Holy. Romans 8:30; Hebrews 12:16.
Fellow Saints rejoice in the righteousness of God by faith in our Lord Christ Jesus.

Re: 'The Progress'
S.C. Your post is unclear; however, let me give you some sound advice. Read and be Blessed!
The Progress is being obediant to the Lord bringing in the lost to God, Telling them that through Christ they can be saved if they willing choose to do so. The purpose is to bring Glory to God, and snatch the souls in the nick of time whom are destin to spend eternity in hell, if they refuse. God has given us free will, to accept him or to reject Him. There are consequences to our actions; and eternity does not end, like our flesh existance will one day.
Salvation comes through Christ and Christ alone; there is no other way.
God gives prophecy to whom he so desires. Prophecies may come and go; but the word of God remains the same and never changes. God is a God of order, plan, and purpose. His ways are higher, and His intellegence is beyond what our human minds can comprehend.
Our purpose on earth is to live by the Holy word of God, through the help and guidance of the Holy Spirit and to have a personal relationship one on one with our Lord Jesus Christ. God loved us so much He sent Jesus for the ultimate sacrifice of willing giving His life up for our sins; the least we can do in appreciation is to give our life over to Him.
Be assured, that God is not to be mocked at; for just as He is merciful and longsuffering, "VENGANCE IS MY SAITH THE LORD". Those whom don't believe in God or that Hell exists will be UNFORTUNATELY SHOCKED AND SURPRISED WHEN THEIR DAYS ON EARTH HAVE ENDED; to find out there is a spiritual realm afterall. TO THEIR HORROR, THIS WILL BE A NEW TERRIFYING BEGINNING WITH NO END IN SIGHT.
We are all just one breath away from eternity; Choose whom you will serve and where you want to spend it; heaven or hell. No one is promised tomorrow HERE ON EARTH; tomorrow may never come for some whom are here today.
It is a FEARFUL thing to be in the presence of the Lord if one has rejected Him; for it would have been better if they were never born. So if you or others are on the fence strattling undecided; please reconsider to make a decision for the Lord; YOUR LIFE MAY DEPEND ON IT; YOUR ETERNAL LIFE, AND WHERE YOU SPEND IT!!!
Here is a wonderful summary from the internet, I pray it will help you, and give you food for thought.
The Bible says there is only one way to Heaven
Jesus said: "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father but by me." (John 14:6)
Good works cannot save you.
"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." (Ephesians 2:8-9)
Trust Jesus Christ today! Here's what you must do:
Admit you are a sinner.
"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" (Romans 3:23)
"Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:" (Romans 5:12)
"If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us." (1 John 1:10)
Be willing to turn from sin (repent).
Jesus said: "I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." (Luke 13:5)
"And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:" (Acts 17:30)
Believe that Jesus Christ died for you, was buried, and rose from the dead.
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." (John 3:16)
"But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners. Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8)
"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." (Romans 10:9)
Through prayer, invite Jesus into your life to become your personal Saviour.
"For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." (Romans 10:10)
"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Romans 10:13)
What to pray:
Dear God, I am a sinner and need forgiveness. I believe that Jesus Christ shed His precious blood and died for my sin. I am willing to turn from sin. I now invite Christ to come into my heart and life as my personal Saviour.
"But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:" (John 1:12)
"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." (2 Corinthians 5:17)
If you have received Jesus Christ as your Saviour, as a Christian you should:
Read your Bible every day to get to know Christ better.
"Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." (2 Timothy 2:15)
"Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path." (Psalms 119:105)
Talk to God in prayer every day.
"And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive." (Matthew 21:22)
"Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God." (Philippians 4:6)
Be baptized, worship, fellowship, and serve with other Christians in a church where Christ is preached and the Bible is the final authority.
"Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:" (Matthew 28:19)
"Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching." (Hebrews 10:25)
"All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:" (2 Timothy 3:16)
Tell others about Christ.
"And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature." (Mark 16:15)
"For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!" (1 Corinthians 9:16)
"For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek." (Romans 1:16)

Re: Left Behind
OK. You’re one of those who just wouldn’t listen to all the warnings. Now you’ve missed the rapture and you’ve been left behind.
If you missed the rapture that means you were not ready for Heaven. When God looked at your soul He saw a sinner. God judges your heart, your thoughts, your attitude and intentions. God looks at the part of you that is not seen with the naked eye. When you are saved and forgiven of your sins, God looks upon you and sees the blood of Jesus making you pure and clean. Only the blood of Jesus can take away your sins. Without the blood of Jesus cleansing you of your sins you are not worthy to stand in the presence of Almighty God and enter into Heaven. Once Jesus Christ covers you in His blood, God accepts you as one of His children. God took all of His children straight to Heaven when we were raptured. If you were not His that is why you didn't go. There are only good, God filled people in Heaven. If you did not accept Jesus Christ as youir Lord and Savior, then you are not good and that is why you are still here. Jesus Christ is the ONLY ONE Who can make you good.
GET READY FOR SOME HARD TIMES. BEFORE THE TRIBULATION IS OVER, YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE TO RECEIVE THE MARK OF THE BEAST IN YOUR RIGHT HAND OR YOUR FOREHEAD. IF YOU DO RECEIVE IT, YOU WILL DOOM YOUR SOUL TO HELL FOREVER. IF YOU DON'T YOU AND YOUR FAMILY WILL BE KILLED AND BEHEADED.
I can just hear some of you right now saying, “why did God allow this to happen to me?” I haven't done anything wrong. I'm not a bad person" People always want to blame God for their bad choices. If you have been left behind, it’s your fault, not God’s. God has been telling everyone this day was coming. You just chose not to listen. Look around, the message has been everywhere. You couldn’t miss it if you tried. God is merciful and gracious. He did not try to take anyone by surprise. He gave everyone a warning and a chance to repent.
Now what? I’m not real sure what you might be able to do at this point. I really don’t think there is a completely safe place anywhere for you. That’s why God wanted you to go up in the rapture. But now the 7 years of tribulation has started. You’ll probably want to try to hide away and not come out till the seven years of tribulation is over. Since there will be nuclear wars, earthquakes, storms, and total devastation, maybe under ground or deep in a cave or a mountain would be the best place. You would still run the risk of the mountain or cave collapsing and being buried alive. The Bible says mountains and islands will be swallowed up in earthquakes. The water and air will be contaminated. There’s going to be destruction and fighting and killing going on everywhere.
Since you did not ask Jesus to forgive you of your sins, or you ask Him to forgive you but you didn't mean it and you kept on sinning, that is why you are still here. So the first thing you need to do is ask Jesus to come into your heart and forgive you of your sins. No sacrifices are needed, no specific ritual is needed. Just a heart felt sincere confession to Jesus. The blood Jesus shed on the cross was your sin sacrifice, and that is all that is needed. (Go to the "Jesus as Savior" page on this website and pray the sinners prayer) Then ask Him to help you and tell you where to hide to be safe through the tribulation. And be willing to do and go wherever He says. You may not be able to stay in the same place all the time. You might have to move around alot to different places. I’m not sure how much help God is going to give to the one’s who have waited till AFTER the rapture to give their life to Him. I do know that the Bible speaks of the one’s who are beheaded and killed because they profess faith in God and refused the mark of the beast. The only saving God may be doing at this point may just be your soul. Your body may end up dying. It doesn’t matter whether your body dies or not. Just continue to praise and thank God for saving your soul and giving you eternal life in Heaven. Heaven is where your real life is any way. You will spend ETERNITY in Heaven. You have only been on the earth for a few years.
You’re not going to be able to go out shopping casually like you are now. You’ll probably have to live quite primitively if you do not have the mark of the beast. No electric or water or a lot of luxuries you are accustomed to. Gather all the food, water, medicine, antibiotics, tools, artificial light, weapons, clothes, shoes, blankets and a Bible and hide yourself away somewhere in some kind of fallout shelter. If you remain out in society and not except the mark of the beast, you will be killed, beheaded, and destroyed. If you hide away, there’s still a chance you will be killed if not by people then by radiation, natural disasters, or a deadly plague. You’ve got to seal yourself up somewhere to keep bugs, rodents, and wild beasts from reaching you. Seven years is a very long time. If you do survive through all that, you’ll have to have an awful lot of food and water stored or you’ll die of starvation and dehydration. There’s not a lot of foods that will last for seven years without going bad except maybe dry beans and rice. If they’re not stored airtight they could ruin also.
You’ll also need supplies to have a fire for cooking and for warmth during the winter. You’ll need supplies to keep your hideout area clean and sanitized so germs and bacteria don’t contaminate and kill you. Take shovels and garbage bags to bury your waste. Lots of bleach, lime, salt, alcohol, baking soda, and peroxide will probably come in handy. I am sure you will need alot of camping supplies.
Keep a calendar so you’ll know when the seven years is up. Don’t come out of hiding for any reason. It might be best not to listen to a radio or any kind of news from the world, because it will be easy to be deceived by all the lies that will be told. Satan is a master deceiver and liar. He is good at it. You are no match for him alone. You know the day when we were all raptured. Count seven years from then and don’t come out till it’s all over. God Himself will come and get you when it’s over. The bible says many will come and say they are Jesus. Jesus will not come back to this earth until the end of the 7 year tribulation period at the battle of Armageddon. The antichrist and the false prophet will be here deceiving people and killing those who refuse to worship them. Do not believe their lies. Many people believe that God will be merciful and their will be another rapture in the middle of the tribulation period (3 1/2 years), before the Great Tribulation starts.
Don’t give up hope. Don’t communicate with anyone. DON’T ACCEPT THE MARK OF THE BEAST. Hide, pray and stay there till Jesus comes after you.
I know all this sounds extreme. The tribulation is going to be extreme.

Re: Left Behind
Wow, how cool is this?
From Rapture Ready forum .
. . "New After the Rapture Email Service Launched"
A new "after the Rapture" email service has been launched.
Unlike other post-Rapture mailing services, the You've Been Left Behind website allows the customer to edit all documents and addresses at any time.
This online site is run and programmed by Christians.
It employs a "dead man's switch" to automatically send the Emails after the Rapture of the Church has taken place.
Multiple safeguards have been put into place to prevent premature sending of stored documents.
Customers of You've Been Left Behind Get an account with 250MB of storages space. And can upload any document to send to as many as 62 email addresses. 150MB are stored 256 bit encrypted.
Those documents can be individually sent to up to 12 specific email addresses. 100MB of unencrypted storage can be collectively sent to another 50 email addresses.
A blog is also available to customers with prewritten documents for the customer who does not have the time or prophecy knowledge to write their own general letters.
The url of the site is http://www.youvebeenleftbehind.com/. Questions and comments may be sent to youvebeenleftbehind@gmail.com
__________________
Please forgive me if I don’t begin this letter with a proper salutation, but since I don’t know who will read it when the time comes, I can’t properly address it to any particular person. Suffice it to say that it is intended for anyone who reads it. It is early January, 2002, as I type this, and early June of the same year as I revise it (and just a few months later--late August--as I post this online version on Geocities).
By the time you read this letter, millions of people will have disappeared from the earth--including me! I’ve printed some information from the Internet, and enclosed a booklet titled “What to Do if You Miss the Rapture!” and a video titled “Have You Been Left Behind?”--all of which will explain what happened, and what you need to do. I’m including that information with the hard-copy version of this letter, along with a pocket-sized New Testament, a separate copy of the Gospel of John, and several salvation tracts. First, though, I want to say a few things.
What’s happened is that God has taken all Christians to Heaven. Every person who received Jesus as Lord and Savior, and every baby and child who’s below the age of accountability (or, rather, not old enough to understand the concept of sin and what it can do) has been taken to be with the Lord. He’s given us brand-new bodies--bodies that will never die, or get sick or hurt. And not only has He called all live Christians to Heaven, He has resurrected every Christian and child who’s died since Jesus ascended to Heaven, 2,000 years ago. He’s given them the same kinds of bodies He’s given us. (If you visit the area cemeteries, you’ll discover that many of the graves are now empty.) Not only are all adult and teenage born-again Christians gone, so are the babies and young children, both the living and the dead. They’ve been taken up, too, as I’ve said.
(BTW, there may be supposed Christians who were left behind. If so, you need to know this: many think they are Christians simply because they try to be good people, or because they go to church, or because they come from Christian families. Only the person who recognizes his sinfulness and makes the decision to accept Jesus’ offer of salvation can go to Heaven, and these people have failed to do that. If you want to read about how Jesus saved my soul, click on this link.)
The first thing I want you to know is this: I am not dead! I am in Heaven, yes, but I did not die to go up there. That's right, my soul and spirit are still firmly attached to my body, which is now made of a material that can live in both Heaven and on earth! (It's the same material that Jesus' body is made of.) I am just as alive and well as I was before I left earth, and maybe more so. So please don’t grieve.
The reason I’m typing this is because my concern, now, is for you. You need to know what’s going to happen and what you need to do. The information I printed out and stored in the envelope will explain, better than I can, those things--please read it! All of it! And watch the video, too! It’s vital that you do so, and I’ll tell you why.
What happened to the other Christians and me is something that God predicted 2,000 years ago. Long before that, He predicted that there would be a resurrection of the good and the wicked, but only after Jesus came did He predict that there would be a generation of believers that would never know death, but go to Heaven without dying. We are part of that generation, and I had the privilege of being caught up when the day came. We will be in Heaven for 7 years or more, until Jesus comes back to this planet.
In the meantime, terrible times are coming for the people left on the earth. There will be a 7-year period that the Bible calls the Tribulation, and Jesus Himself said that it would be so bad that unless He cut it short, no one would be saved. Thankfully, Jesus said that, for the sake of those who accept Him during that period, those days will be shortened. Unfortunately, the vast majority of people will die while the Tribulation’s in progress. God’s wrath will be poured out on the world during that time. It will be His last-ditch effort to get people’s attention so they’ll turn to Him; unfortunately, the majority of the people will refuse to listen, and will die and go to Hell as a result.
My plea and my prayer is that you will not be among those people!!! Please heed what I’m writing, what the people who wrote the information I printed out wrote, and what’s explained on the video. I can’t promise that you’ll survive physically, but if you’ll do what I’m telling you, I promise that you will survive spiritually, and then when it’s over, you’ll be resurrected, too--to spend eternity with Jesus. When that happens, we’ll be together again, always.
There will soon be a one-world government, headquartered in Europe, and its leader will be an extremely wicked man that the Bible calls by a number of names--the Antichrist, the Man of Sin, the beast, etc. He will sign a 7-year covenant with Israel that will officially start the Tribulation. The Antichrist will be possessed by Satan himself, will have the ability to deceive people, and will demand worship. And the way he’ll get it is this: he’ll set in motion a system where people have to accept in the hand or forehead something that the Book of Revelation calls a mark. No one will be able to buy, sell, or hold a job without one. To receive the mark, they’ll have to worship the Antichrist and reject all other gods, including the true God. To make it worse, there will come a time when anyone who refuses the mark (which will be either a tattoo or, more likely, a computer implant) will be martyred.
Please, please, don’t--I repeat, do NOT--accept that mark!!!! The Bible makes it very plain that to do so will be an unforgivable sin. Anyone who does will be condemned to Hell for all eternity--they will not be able to accept Jesus as Savior if they’ve accepted the Antichrist’s mark. If you take it, we’ll never be together again, and you will suffer God’s wrath forever. I don’t want that to happen to you; PLEASE heed what I’m saying! I beg you.
When the 7-year period ends, Jesus will return to Earth, and we who were Raptured or resurrected will come with him--on white horses! Jesus will bind the devil and lock him in a bottomless pit for a thousand years. Everyone who accepted the mark and worshipped the Antichrist--those who are still alive when He comes--will die. Those believers in Jesus who survived the Tribulation will go into Jesus’ new Kingdom as mortal believers. They will marry, have children, and hold jobs or own their own businesses. They will live throughout the 1000-year period. The only people who will die during the Millennium will be unbelievers who commit serious sins (some of the believers’ children, grandchildren, etc., will be unbelievers, sad to say).
If you are able to survive till then, you will do the same. If not, you will be resurrected and given a new body, and you’ll be part of the new Kingdom, too. And either way, we’ll be together once more, and it will be a happy time, believe me! Then, after 1,000 years, God will sentence the devil to be trapped forever in a horrible lake of fire (along with everyone who refused to accept Jesus). He’ll destroy this earth, and create a brand-new one and a brand-new universe to go with it. Everyone who had a personal relationship with God will live with God on that new earth forever, in the kind of resurrection bodies those of us who were Raptured or resurrected are enjoying now.
I want you all to be part of this, too--those of you who were left behind--so I’m leaving you this information, both this online version and the hard-copy version. I’m also leaving you my Bibles, my Bible prophecy books (both nonfiction and novels), and my other Christian books, videos, audiocassettes, and CDs. Please read them, watch them, and listen to them; in particular, watch th
