THE GREAT DISAPPEARANCE

You may be reading this booklet following a world-wide, sudden disappearance, a vanishing, of millions of people. Perhaps even tens of millions of individuals from all over the world, of every ethnicity, nation, every race—all gone, in a millisecond of time. If this disappearance has not happened yet, it may very soon. There will be so many, it will be topic #1 on EVERY news broadcast, in hundreds of languages globally.

Christians know of this event as the “rapture of the church,” when they are all taken from the earth just prior to the great seven-year tribulation. The effect will be instantaneous—moving vehicles of ALL types, all around the world will be suddenly without drivers, and going out of control. Be assured, there will be many “analysts” and “experts” putting forth theories as to what happened to so large a number of people worldwide. The likeliest “theory” will be that of an extra-terrestrial ‘visitation’ that has snatched away the millions. The answer to the truth of the vanishing, however, is found in the Bible. Some of the early warning signs (preceding the Vanishing) in the passages that follow include the increase of warfare, famine, plagues, catastrophic weather events, earthquakes and tsunamis.

The Vanishing will be followed by increasingly dire circumstances worldwide for seven years, leading up to what appears to be a cataclysmic global war. A political figure, whom the Bible refers to as the “antichrist” will become world prominent. He will be about world peace at the beginning. But at the midpoint of the seven years, his ambitions and intentions will become clear. Increasing mayhem will occur right up to the return of the Lord Jesus Christ.

HOW CAN YOU BE SURE YOU TAKE PART IN THIS GREAT
DISAPEARANCE? 

A. Believe in your heart that:

• Jesus Christ is Lord and Creator (John 1:1-14).

• Jesus Christ is the only way to be saved and to be with Him (John 14:6 & Acts 4:12).

• Because you are a sinner, and were born as a sinner, you cannot earn your way to Heaven by trying to be good enough, as the standard is perfection (Romans 3:10-23 & Matthew 5:48).

• Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay for your sins (Philippians 2:6-8).

• Jesus Christ was resurrected, so that you could be in Him, freed from the penalty of your sin (II Corinthians 5:21).

• Jesus Christ offers you the gift of Eternal Life by grace through faith (Ephesians 2:8-9.

• Forgiveness is the result of repentance, turning from self to Jesus’ direction, and turning from disbelief in Him to faith (Mark 1:4, 15; Luke 13:3, 5; 24:47).   

B. Confess that you believe and ask Jesus to save you (Romans 10:8-11).

C. Follow up by finding a good Bible-honoring and teaching church to affiliate and fellowship with, and get baptized. Christian fellowship is absolutely essential for your support, strength, and spiritual nourishing as a new believer.
