God provides prophetic insights into the attitudes of those who will be found living "in the last days" . . .

 "Knowing this first:

   that scoffers will come in the last days,  

   walking according to their own lusts,

   and saying, ‘Where is the promise of His coming?’"

   (2 Peter 3:3-4)

Many (including many who call themselves "Christian") will ridicule those who take the warnings of the Bible seriously and wait in faith.  What will people "scoff" at?  What events constitute "the promise of His coming?"   The world (those who "will not inherit the Kingdom of Heaven") will scoff at those who believe . . .

   -  God will once again intervene and demonstrate His power over a world which denies Him, mocks His law, and rejects His grace.

   -  Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) will return suddenly "as a thief in the night" to safely remove those who believe in Him, to shelter them from the carnage and devastation that will sweep across the globe sometime thereafter.

   -  Jesus, the Messiah, will return a second time at the end of the Tribulation, restoring the Earth in innocence and purity, and to establish His Kingdom on Earth . . . a Kingdom of peace and beauty.

However, God does graciously answer those who sincerely ask, "Where is the promise of His coming?" or, "It’s been 2000 years, why hasn’t He returned yet?"

 "The Lord is not slack concerning His promise,

   as some count slackness, but is longsuffering (patient) toward us,

   not willing that any should perish

   but that all should come to repentance."

   (2 Peter 3:9)         (Prophecies ... The coming "Rapture")        (The assurance of life in Heaven  ... it's NOT too late!!!)

God is patient. We are told He has waited this long because He loves us and wants us to repent, which simply means to  turn back to Him and His Word, which are good.  He is filled with patience, forgiveness, and mercy.  He will protect and shelter all who will draw close to Him before the coming time of trouble.  He warns us through prophecy so we will realize how perilously close we are to the end.  He wants us to realize how far from Him and His protection we have wandered, and to run back to Him as we sense the danger we are in ... and with open arms and with tears of joy He will welcome all who will return to Him (through His Son who willingly and lovingly paid for all of our sins on the Cross.)

--WND      (Prophecies ... The coming Antichrist) 

A coming global ("one-world") monetary system  ...

   "He (a coming world leader ... the "Antichrist") causes ALL,

     both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave,

     to receive a mark

     on their right hand or on their foreheads,

     and that NO ONE MAY BUY OR SELL 

     except one who has the mark,

     (Revelation 13:16-17)

This prophecy is very crucial for those who have not accepted Jesus Christ (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) as their Lord and will be alive when this law is enacted and enforced.  This "mark" may be some kind of tattoo, or implanted microchip with all of your credit card and banking information, we really don’t know right now.  It will not be easy to refuse this mark, whatever it is, for many of you will have families and children that will need to be fed.  But, please be warned . . . by taking this mark, you will have sealed your eternal fate in Hell.  In God’s eyes it identifies you with the Antichrist ... and Satan.  There will be no turning back for any who take the "mark, the name of the Beast, or the number of his name."  The utter darkness, loneliness, and torments of Hell will be their fate and their eternal destiny.  Blessings are promised in Heaven to all those who refuse to take the "mark" and refuse to bow down to this coming world leader . . .  and will die in their faith for doing so.  The Lord will take the sting out of death.

     Jesus warns,

     "But as the days of Noah were,

       so also will the coming of the Son of Man be . . ."

       (Matthew 24:37)

       and the Earth was filled with violence.

       So God looked upon the Earth, and indeed it was corrupt;

       for all flesh had corrupted their way on the Earth.

       And God said to Noah, ‘The end of all flesh has come before Me,

       for the Earth is filled with violence through them;

       and behold, I will destroy them with the Earth.’"

       (Genesis 6:11-13)

  Jesus (Yeshua) warns,

     "But as the days of Noah were,

       so also will the coming of the Son of Man be."

     "For as in the days before the flood,

       they were eating and drinking,

       marrying and giving in marriage,

       until the day that Noah entered the ark,

       and did not know until the flood came and took them all away,

       so also will the coming of the Son of Man be."

 "But know this,

   that in the last days perilous times will come . . .

   Evil men and impostors (seducers)

   will grow worse and worse,

   deceiving (lying) and being deceived."

   (2 Timothy 3:1, 13)

The Scriptures tell us God cannot lie and He hates all liars. God says truth is non-negotiable and is fundamental to His law. In the past, liars and perjurers were dealt with harshly and severely. Today we see lying casually accepted and even presented as funny or harmless. In God’s eyes, elected leaders of a democracy are mirrors which reflect the people who elected them and willingly keep them in office. As noted, telling the truth is fundamental to God’s law. In the Bible we find when a nation and its leader(s) defiantly mock, ignore, and turn their backs on God’s law, God will turn His back on that nation and remove His protection and blessings from that people. God help us. The future of that people and nation is usually very, very grim. The other distressing thing found in this prophecy is God warning us the deception and lying will continue to grow even worse and worse. The leaders of "this generation" will not only disobey and ignore God’s laws but will even brand God’s laws as "intolerant" and will somehow twist obedience to God’s laws into "hate." Just watch.

Note:  Many people today do not know whether or not they (or their loved ones) will go to Heaven.  Many have not been adequately taught what the Bible actually says and teaches ...

For the Assurance of Life in Heaven . . . ACT (A.C.T.T) NOW!!! 

-  Acknowledge you are a sinner and have sinned against God's Law ...

-  Confess your sins to God

-  Turn back to God and God's Word ... and away from sinful activities ("repent")

-  Trust (believe) completely in Jesus Christ  (Yeshua Ha'Mashiach in Hebrew) ...

     -  That He died for your sins on the Cross ...

     -  That He was buried ... 

     -  That He was powerfully raised (Resurrected) from the dead the third day ...

     -  And that He is now seated on His throne ... in Heaven!!!     (Notice He did all the work ... all you have to do is "believe.")

If you do these things … sincerely and in faith … the Bible says you can have the complete assurance of eternal life in Heaven.  The Bible tells us Jesus (Yeshua) did all the work for you when He died on the Cross, was buried, and was raised (resurrected) from the dead through the fearful ... and wonderful ... power of God.  The Bible says you can’t add anything to it!  When you turn away from your sinful ways and turn back to God ("repent") ... then believe and trust in (and love) Jesus Christ as your "Savior" (who lovingly saves you from your sins and from Hell) you can have the complete peace and assurance in your heart that when you die, you will enter into His Kingdom of Heaven ... forever and ever … it’s God’s Promise!!! 

The only thing God asks a non-believer to do is to "believe"... God (Jesus) did ALL the work ... life in Heaven is offered as a gift!!! 

Yet, many don't realize God’s loving offer (see below) contains both a “blessing” and a “curse”...

   "For God so loved the world

     that He gave His only begotten Son,

     that whoever believes in Him    (to trust in Jesus alone to save us from our sins and from Hell)

     should NOT perish (in Hell)

     but have everlasting life (in Heaven).

     For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world,

     but that the world through Him might be saved (into Heaven).

     He who believes in Him is not condemned (to Hell);

     but he who does not believe (in Jesus Christ)

     IS CONDEMNED (to Hell) ALREADY"     (The implications of this verse are staggering!)

     (John 3:16-18)     

   "For by GRACE you have been saved (from your sins and from Hell)

     through faith (in Jesus Christ),

     and that not of yourselves;

     it is the gift of God,   (‘Grace’ is getting something we don’t deserve…we can't earn this gift)

     NOT of works,   (we can’t and won’t enter Heaven through any “good deeds” we have done)

     lest anyone should boast."   (We are told it’s a gift from God … we just have to receive it.)

     (Ephesians 2:8)       (The assurance of life in Heaven  ... it's NOT too late!!!)       (Prophecies ... The coming "Rapture")
