“Don’t be left behind” (#44)

Do you know how close we are to the end?
The closing of history is just around the bend.
Before it comes, the Rapture will occur, an event that could happen any year.
What will happen? All followers of Jesus shall, in the space of a moment, disappear.
Yes, they will all vanish from the face of the Earth and go to be with the Lord forevermore.
Others will become Christians after they leave, but they will have to face the persecution and gore
Of the period of Tribulation. It is better to accept Jesus now, and avoid having to endure the strife
And deception that will become widespread before the end of the universe’s life.
If you wait to accept Jesus, there is no telling whether you will follow or be deceived
By the lies of the Antichrist-he will deceive many, and, when the time comes, all who follow him judgment will receive.
So ponder and decide today whether you will follow Christ, and, as you think, please keep in mind-
If Jesus were to take the Church tomorrow, would you want to be left behind?
