Wars and rumors of wars surround the globe. Famines, earthquakes, Plagues - Ebola killing thousands with no end is sight, spreading to USA with first case confirmed in the Dallas area. Nations rising against nation. Muslims, following the teaching found in their holy book, the Quran, beheading hundreds of innocents. Harry Potter being taught instead of Bible - its easier to understand. [thx ep @ the end time]. Evangelicals embracing oneness with the RCC. On and on and on it goes.

Are we as His remnant prepared for what lies ahead?

One blogger writes:

“Whether you believe in a pre-tribulation rapture, or believe Christians will be witness to the full tribulation, wrath, and final judgments, there is work to be done. The beginning of birth pains we are seeing should have the same effect on all of us. It should motivate us to save as many souls as we can in the time that we have left.

The Great Commission tells us to be disciples to all nations, including our own, bringing the message of salvation through Christ to all people.

If the Church is raptured before the tribulation, it is important that we prepare by leaving behind an explanation for the trials and judgments that those left behind will face. How else will they recognize the deception of the anti-Christ and seek instead the truth of the Bible and also be able to recognize the signs of end times? If we are to endure the tribulation along side them, we will need to be prepared to not only share the message of salvation, but share with them the reasons for God's judgment and hold it up as further proof of their need to be saved.”

“strengthen the souls of the disciples, encouraging them to continue in the faith, and saying that through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God.” Acts 14:22

“ ...the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. For when they say, 'Peace and safety!' then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape. But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief. You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober." 1 Thessalonians 5:2-6

Watch and be sober…. Again I ask, are we His remnant prepared for what lies ahead?
