Today we want to look at “WHAT TO DO IF YOU MISS THE RAPTURE.” We pray that this should never happen to you but if you allow it to happen due to your carelessness and lukewarm attitude toward God, then you are in for the worse.
First, imagine the terrible things that will be happening here on earth after the rapture. Unimaginable sufferings and persecutions. No buying, no selling unless you have the mark of the beast, 666 (Rev. 13:16-18).
The Rapture is going to take place suddenly, abruptly, unexpectedly, without warning and without prior notice.
Many Christians will be taken unawares. The event shall have no regard or respect for ecclesiastical titles or church leadership positions.
It shall be a day when the sheep shall be separated from the goats. The day shall differentiate between the Broad Way Christians from the Narrow Way Christians. The day shall separate sincere Christians from hypocritical Christians. The day shall differentiate between those who harbour secret sins from those who abhor secret sins.
The day shall show a clear conspicuous, demarcation between Christians who walk on the path of holiness from those who walk on the path of worldliness. It shall be a day of double emotion: joy for some, indescribable and uncontrollable regrets for others.
The rapture may happen now, today, this week, this month, this year or next year, so the wise Christians, like the five wise virgins that took extra oil, are expected to get ready, wait patiently and watch carefully.
After the event, all those who are bitter against one another, malicious, unforgiving, jealous, arrogant, haters, hypocrites, drunkards, fornicators, adulterers, murderers with weapons and murderers with tongue etc., shall have enough time to continue in their ministry.
When the event is over there shall be revival among those who have missed the Rapture. But they will have to pay with their own blood. When the event is over, those who are left behind shall no longer be safe to worship in their gigantic, fanciful and multi-billion Dollar cathedrals.
Instead they shall seek safety in caves, bushes, abandoned and dilapidated but hidden structures.
When this great event is over, each time those who will miss their flight manage to gather for worship, they will pay attention to only one sermon - whether they gather in Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, North or South America; the sermon will only centre on “How to Meet the Divine Standard and Join the other Saints”.
Those who will be left behind will never have any business with comedians and charlatans at their altars anymore. No! There shall no longer be gatherings for entertainments. Whenever they manage to gather, it shall always be for serious spiritual business only.
The prayer pattern of those who will be left behind will also undergo a radical change. They will not be praying for things anymore. They will only be praying for strength to withstand the tortures of the Anti-Christ and die bravely to join the other saints.
No one will be praying for jobs, marriages, etc. Please note that some of those who will miss the rapture will not be able to endure the torture of the Anti-Christ. They will unfailingly receive the mark of the beast and thereby be doomed forever.
When the ready saints are gone, all our denominational walls of partition will collapse. The man or woman who use to worship in Deeper Life, for instance, will hide in the same place with those who worship in Christ Embassy, Church of God Mission, Assemblies of God, Word Aflame, Action Chapel, Winners Chapel, Salvation Ministries etc. and nobody will remember to claim superiority anymore because then they will be facing a common enemy.
When this event is over, each time believers who will miss the rapture manage to gather anywhere for worship, there will be an atmosphere of sobriety. This rowdiness we witness today shall be no more. There shall also be a radical change in the attitude of those who will miss the rapture towards Bible study.
What we have now is an attitude characterized by a high degree of nonchalance and indifference, but when the ready saints are gone, those who will be left behind will begin to take their Bible Study seriously.
When the event is over, all those who will do any form of business in the schools, hospitals, banks, etc, will have to bear the mark of beast (666) or be hunted down and killed like common criminals.
Follow these instructions in case you miss the rapture: If you miss the Rapture because you refused to accept Christ as your Lord and Saviour before the Rapture, or because you allowed the modern easy going, psychedelic, money loving, break-dance ministers to deceive you, do the following:
1. Find out why you did not make the Rapture. Purge yourself of any known sin and then get Born Again quickly.
2. Sell your houses, cars, and any other landed properties. Hurry and do this before the decree of not buying and selling is enacted.
3. Withdraw all your money from the bank before the above decree is issued.
4. Buy the following: Matches, salt, cassava, flour, anything that can last, and quickly go and hide or bury them in a thick jungle from where you will be digging them out to eat as occasion warrants. Buy fish, goat, cow. Roast them dry and go and bury them in the same jungle.
5. Buy drums and fill them with water. Go and bury them in the same jungle. They will serve as drinking water later. A demon called Wormwood will make the water on earth undrinkable. Also, radioactive fall outs will make surface water undrinkable.
6. Get out of the city quickly. Move into the jungle where you have stored things.
7. Forget about NEPA light or pipe-born water. Move into a cave if you can still find one. But remember that you may have to dwell with pythons there.
8. Forget about your certificates because you won’t need them in the jungle.
9. Don’t become sick because nobody will sell the required drugs to you. But remember that those giant mosquitoes will be visiting you.
9. Please heed this timely warning: No matter what you go through during the tribulation, do not take “the mark” of the beast or else your portion will be the lake of fire. If you take the mark, you are doomed forever (Rev. 13:16-18).
Look, the Beast system is already at work: In Britain right now, you must have a digital ID before you can be permitted to work there.Can’t you see that that moment has come? (Rev. 14:9-11).
A word of advice: Dear friend, why go through all these calamities when you can easily surrender your life to Christ right now, deny yourself of all the worldly pleasures and lusts that drown people in perdition.
Why wait to suffer all these horrors? 1) Repent of your sins and surrender your life to Christ today. 2) Carefully check your life and get rid of every measure of worldliness. 3) Purge yourself of sin. 4) Go out and win souls for Christ. 6) Spend your money on evangelism and missions now that you still have the opportunity. Time is running out! No Procrastination (Prov. 27:1).
Watch out for the next Edition of Good News from the Pulpit.
Your friend, I. I. Madubunyi (Senior Pastor, HOG)
