The Rapture Force

What is Eschatology?
How does it affect every one in the world?
Why should we study the end of things?
When people say the end of the world, they are really basically misunderstanding what the end times means. It will not be the end of the world. It will be the end of the way things have been for nearly 6,000 years. It will be Christ our Messiah,coming to rule the world, a thousand years of peace and prosperity. A wonderful life, that people the world over, wish it was right now. In fact the people who are involved in trying to make the new world order, the one world government are in fact, hoping to achieve this utopia, where there is no crime no sick people, only wealthy, healthy, people. The sad fact is, it can never be done without God.

Eschatology is the study of end times prophecies in the bible. It is a deep look at what is coming, and how it will all start and end. This is the study of the ultimate destiny of human kind. The study of the final confrontation between the forces of good versus evil, and the establishment of a realm of deliverance from suffering and sin based on the restoration of an original world of goodness. There are many forms of Eschatology,such as the Jewish, the Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist,and of course Christian. I pay attention to the Jewish,and the Christian,with a bit of study on the Muslim end times study as well.

I am not in any way shape or form a Muslim,but being aware of the biggest enemy of the Christian religions eschatological views, is quite important. It parallels ours (Christian) so very well. Where we have our savior coming back to the earth, at the end of the whole thing, with the culmination of Armageddon. The Muslims expect their messiah to come as the twelfth Imam or the Mahdi, at the beginning of troubles. They believe they must create Chaos on the earth, to usher in their messiah. While our beliefs are, we must tell the whole world of Jesus Christ, and then the bad times come, then the taking away of those who are truly Christs own.

That is called the rapture to most people. There is no such word in the bible as rapture. It is either called harpazzo the Greek word, which means caught up, or parusia, another Greek word which means, to be present with,such as being present with the Lord. Then comes the battle of Armageddon, in which all the armies of the world come together at the valley of Meggido, to come against Israel, and that is when the Lord steps in.

There is a great need today to study eschatology (the doctrine of future things) as God’s Word unfolds before our very eyes. There are many Christians today who know very little about God’s plans for the here-and-now, and they know even less about God’s plans for their future. The Scriptures give several reasons why the study of eschatology is profitable for us. First of all it is for the purity in the believer’s life 1 John 3:3. It comforts the believer in their time of bereavement 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18. Thirdly, the study of eschatology gives us a divine viewpoint in our outlook 2 Corinthians 4:16-18. And finally, study produces motivation for the believer’s faithful service 2 Timothy 4:7-8.

Now Matthew chapter 24 is the best New Testament start to finish explanation of the end times, by Christ to His disciples. The book of Revelation is the explanation of what will be happening through the tribulation period into the millennial kingdom,which is when Christ will reign on earth with His elect or saints,which are those of us who are Christs own. We have been chosen by God to receive salvation,and we have accepted the free gift of God’s grace for the forgiveness of our sins. The bible tells us many have been called but few are chosen. Matthew 22:14.

Here is a link to be able to read all of Matthew chapter 24 for yourselves. If the link is not click able please copy and paste into your browser. http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%2024&version=AMP
I would ask that you who read that chapter, would pay close attention to the words of Jesus in verse 29 when it says AFTER those days of tribulation. Too many people do not seem to see those words,or they disregard them.

The end times are through out the entire bible, but there are some that are much deeper involved in the study, of end of the age studies than others. In the Old Testament the book of Jeremiah,the book of Daniel,the book of Isaiah,the book of Ezekiel,the book of Amos and Joel and Zechariah ,Malachi and more. It is amazing to study these prophecies, and then watch the world news, at least world news that tell you the truth, and do not hide information from you. Watching the news these days is like reading your bible,and suddenly getting an understanding you never understood before. Seeing the very steps that are being taken world wide, to bring us to the end of the age.

The New Testament, has many prophecies of the end of the age too. It is exciting to this writer to read and get understanding, of what the Lord is telling us. The preparations He has set in His Word for us. But to get the blessings that are coming in the end of the age, you must be one of Christs own. To become one of Christs called ones, or chosen ones, we must become born again in order to receive the promises in the Word of God.

Here is the prayer you say to become born again. No one needs to know you said this prayer, but eventually the changes that take place in you are going to show up, but by then you will be proud to let the world know you are one of Christs.

“Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from you. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward you. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your will for the rest of my life. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.”

I’ve Prayed It; Now What? If you’ve prayed this prayer of salvation with true conviction and heart, you are now a follower of Jesus. This is a fact, whether or not you feel any different. Religious systems may have led you to believe that you should feel something – a warm glow, a tingle, or some other mystical experience. The fact is, you may, or you may not. If you have prayed the prayer of salvation and meant it, you are now a follower of Jesus. The Bible tells us “that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” (Romans 10:9)

Welcome to the family of God! I encourage you now to find a local church where you can be baptized and grow in the knowledge of God through His Word, the Bible.

As we go along, my hope is that you will understand very well the end times prophecies. May God Bless and watch over you. May the Lord guide you in wisdom and knowledge,and grow you into a strong and joy filled Christian.
Love in Christ, Tammy

I do not feel the need to ever make someone come to the Lord through fear and burning. I could not would not lead someone to the Lord by telling them they are going straight to hell unless they repent and turn to the Lord. My way of evangelizing is simply through the witness of my life. I want people to be jealous and zealous for the Lord. Meaning I want them to come to the Lord because they are so jealous of what is inside me, and have to have that for themselves.

I want people to come to the Lord and want to serve Him zealously,with fire in their veins and in their heart. If one comes to the Lord only out of fear, without the Love of God, then I fear that they will adhere more to the law, than to have the Holy spirit, leading them teaching them, and bringing them along. We who have been Christians for a while, know that to follow the law in all of its form, is to stumble and fall. Then one feels that there is nothing but condemnation, and We know that there is no condemnation for those who love the Lord. Romans 8:1There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. See walking after the spirit brings no condemnation,it does not say following the laws,it says following after the Spirit.

If your telling them that they must turn or they will burn in hell, what good is it doing them, or yourself? Some people think this is the only way to bring folks to the Lord, but I can tell you from experience, you bring more flies with honey, than you do with vinegar. I share how God has changed my life. I share how when I am going through tough times the Lord sees me through it. I share with them the blessings that come from walking after the Holy Spirit. I share uplifting verses that bring great peace to a hurting and or sorrowful heart.

Romans 11:14 if somehow I might move to jealousy my fellow countrymen and save some of them. Now Paul was talking to the gentiles about the Jews in this particular verse, but I feel we can use it too, to provoke people to jealousy, to want what we have. Which is peace and joy even in the midst of our hardest most trying times. Our witness should be always present no matter our circumstances. We should be praising God in the midst of our sorrow and tests and trials. Letting the world know that strength comes to us, through our sovereign, reining Lord. That His love is never ending, and even better for those who love Him back. God loves each and every person on this earth. He does not want us tearing people apart, and pointing out all of their wrong doings. No He wants to woo them and pursue them and show them His everlasting love.

Not long ago, during some of the hardest times I have had in my married life,the Lord had me speak to a friend who was broken and hurting to the very depths of her soul. During the times that she and I spoke, not once did the Lord give me one single condemning verse to share with her. He gave me every verse that would build her up, and strengthen her, and show her God’s absolute love for her. I am so happy to say that the Lord used me to bring this friend to him. God said Tammy I want her, the very first time we spoke, after about 25 years of not seeing one another. Then He gave me every word to speak into her life,to show her that yes God is there waiting for you to give it all to Him. Give Him your hurt your pain and sorrow. Show your loved ones, your friends,coworkers God’s love, not His wrath. The truth is God does not want to share His wrath with anyone other than satan.

I praise God for showing me that the world is full of hurting broken people and that He wants to turn broken into beautiful. Let us all bring the hurting aching, sorrow filled people to the Lord, with love and encouragement. No matter how tempting it may sometimes be to say to someone who has hurt us, oh your going to hell you rotten so and so. No instead shock and amaze those who hurt you, with love and understanding, compassion and a smile. Share with them the love of God. Understand that this is a hurting soul who is lashing out at you. If you cannot speak to them, then turn and walk away and pray for them.

Peter says do not pay back evil with evil. In 1st Peter 3:9 Don’t repay evil for evil. Don’t retaliate with insults when people insult you. Instead, pay them back with a blessing. That is what God has called you to do, and he will bless you for it. I don’t know about any of you but I know this, I want, nope, I need to be blessed, I need more to be a blessing to people, but most especially to my precious Lord. It does not say in John 3:16 to hell with you if you don’t believe, it says for God so loved the world (see that loved the world) that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believes in Him may not perish but have everlasting life. Let’s bring everyone we can to the Lord with great Love for that is what He is, Love.
Thanks for reading at my site, I love you all and thank the good Lord for you.

What are the prayers of a righteous man or woman? Jesus said the prayer in Matt 6:9-13 was the perfect prayer. I agree totally of course, I mean think about it, we start off with praise, then we tell Him not our will, but His will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Then we ask for our daily bread, which covers both food and spirit filling. Then we ask forgiveness for ourselves as well as those we might be holding something against. We start to finish the prayer with asking for us not to be tempted to evil acts,and finish with another praise. The perfect prayer no doubt.

So often these days people (Christians) say we need to pray for this government to stop going down this horrible path they are taking us down. I say not so. We should be praying of course,but we must all realize the Lord had His prophets prophesying all of this about two thousand years ago.
Reading the news, is like reading all of the prophecies for the end times throughout the bible.

Jesus said in Luke 22:42-44 “Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done.” 43 An angel from heaven appeared to him and strengthened him. 44 And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground. Jesus prayed in such deep earnestness that His sweat became blood drops, for Himself not to have to go through the serious torture He would be enduring. Even Jesus as righteous as He is, could not change anything about these prophecies coming to pass.

Just as we, even in our righteousness through Christ, cannot change anything that is going to happen in the coming months and years. If we were to stop all of what is going on in our government and our world we would be changing God’s prophecy. God does not change one thing about Himself to please men, nor would He change anything about what He has said will come to pass. That would make Him a liar. God is not a liar. We will have a one world government,we will have one world currency,we will have one world religion. There is no amount of praying, even if we were to pray so hard and earnestly that we bleed instead of sweat,that will change this path we are on.

Evil has been planning and working all it’s evil plans for many years. Paul said it in 2 Thessalonians 2:7
For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way. Do not be fooled though please, when something is taken out of the way it is not removed completely, so he who let’s until he is taken out of the way means just that, pushed aside,moved out of the way. Anyway back to my original article. Evil has been busy and God has known all of this even before the foundations of the earth were laid. The Lord did not tell us about these things occurring so that we may change them. He warned us in advance of what was, and is coming, so that we would not fear it. So that we would be prepared, so that we could be strengthened.

Forewarned is forearmed. God said nothing would happen that He has not prepared us for. Our prayers need to be changed from God please stop this, to God strengthen us, encourage us, prepare us. Protect us and guide us through all of what is coming. The warring Christian looks nothing like the worldly war’s. What does the warring Christian look like? Though he has a weapon and armor,these things are unseen. The sword of the Christian is the word of the Lord,the bible. The way we sharpen our swords is to study the word of the Lord to get to know it very well. We can read it over and over and over again and still come up with a wonderful new lesson each time we read it. Paul speaks of the armor of the Christian in Ephesians 6:14-17, as well as our weapon.

The word is our preparation and our armor,but most especially our sword. Hebrews 4:16. “For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power [[making it active, operative, energizing and effective]; it is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating to the dividing line of the breath of life (soul) and [the immortal] spirit, and of joints and marrow [of the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and purposes of the heart.” Amen
The word is powerful with it we fight off satan and his demons.

Too often I have heard good Christians quoting ,they will have to take my gun our of my cold dead hand, rather than to give it up easily. I cringe at this each time I hear it. We as Christians do not fight as the world does no not us. We are to actually offer up our other cheek to allow someone who has slapped our left cheek to make it even and slap our right cheek. The bible in the New testament does not tell us to fight at all. It tells us we are to be sheep led to the slaughter. We do not fight, we love them to Christ. We are to pray for those who persecute us, and our children and family. This I know will be unbelievably hard to do but therein is our trials by fire.

Guns are going to be outlawed we have got to know this. The beast system does not wish us to fight them and win so they will outlaw guns, and much sooner than anyone thinks. Already our Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has signed onto the small arms treaty with the U.N, which is to get rid of as many guns as they can. The only thing that worries me on that score is the evil people who have guns which are not registered, and that far outnumbers those who are registered. How long before they come and confiscate peoples guns? I do not believe it will be long before that occurs. Our fighting will be much more effective with our words that come straight from the bible.

We war in prayer and praise,with peace and the word as our very effective weapon. We are to be gentle, speak softly,love at all costs. If we fight as the world does how does this make us any different than the ones we are trying to lead to the Lord? Yes we live in this world but we are not of this world. When the Christian is at war the world should not even be able to tell. Our fighting is done in the spirit world where we are promised Victory in Jesus. He says behold I have over come the world. It has been done. It all begins with God and ends with Him. We are to trust in the Lord,to protect us guide and direct us,and most assuredly to care for all of our needs.

The time is quickly coming where we Christians will have to depend on the Lord for absolutely everything. Food, shelter, protection, guidance,of where to go and when to go. Are you ready? We in America have been spoiled rotten. As far as having food to eat when we want it,houses and or apartments to live in. We have cars and transportation of all sorts. Freedom of religion, freedom of speech, gun rights. All too soon we will be losing our bill of rights as well as our constitution. Don’t you all know this already? The bible says there will be a one world government that means bye bye American way of life. There will be a one world currency,and a one world religion. These things had been prophesied a very long time ago,did you think to change the Lords mind on any of this? Do you think we can put off what is due this country and this world, throwing God out of everything.

God is giving this world what it wants and that’s for Him to be taken out of absolutely everything. But then they do not understand the consequences of it all. No friends we will not have anyone or anything to depend upon in this world but God.
Have you ever noticed the harder a persons life gets the more he or she depends upon the Lord? Well that’s whats going to happen here folks. We are going to have no choice but to depend upon our gracious Heavenly Father. He will have to be our healer (Which praise His name He is the best most complete healer). They are doing their level best to destroy our hopes of doctors helping us. How long before no one has money to even have health care? The proposed health care bill is nothing but a license to control every aspect of our lives, and yes to decide who should be helped and who should die.

Don’t be fooled people not for one moment . Our governments know exactly what they are doing. They are not making a single mistake here. They are doing exactly what satan has had planned for a very long time,one world government one world currency and one world religion. What they are doing and why they are doing it is a very obvious thing to me and anyone who reads prophecy. However, though we do not fight as the world does,when truth is at stake we stand up for it even if it means our death. Never ever back down from the truth, just don’t hold anyone at gunpoint to stand up for truth.

Everything we are going through now might have been avoided had people not been so quiet and complacent and allowed the truth to be stopped from being absolute. In this world now a days, according to those of the world, there is no absolute truth. They believe truth is relative to all peoples beliefs, what a load of crap that is. Also they are allowing more and more Muslim garbage to be filtered into everything and then they say Muslims are not to be feared. They are to be feared and prayed for with everything we have, that they would turn to the true God the only God the one with a wonderful Son who is all about Love. The Muslims wreak havoc wherever they go and then say the Christians are the ones who are bad? It is unreal to me but at the same time in Isaiah it says good would be considered evil and evil would be considered good in these times. Well hold onto your pants people here we are.

Isaiah 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! I will ask again are you ready? The best way to prepare for all of whats coming is to read your word to pray for understanding and wisdom and knowledge. Do not take mans word for the meaning and understanding of the scriptures, pray for the Holy Spirit to guide you through it in truth with understanding, knowledge, and wisdom.

Love in Christ Jesus, Tammy

They (the media and government) tell us all this bad news in hopes that we will lose hope and then begin to think of a man being able to see us through our turmoil. Hoping that we will turn to them and trust them implicitly to see us through. Yet they are just men. Just human being ,with all the same hang ups and fears and mistakes as every other man. They cannot save us,they cannot heal us,nor our grievous wounds. In fact if we follow men we are being led to our own doom. God is all powerful,all knowing and everywhere at once. He is WISDOM!!!

Every day we hear more and more about how everything is falling apart, and they do not see that the mistakes they are making are just making it all worse.Nor do they see they have made all the same mistakes in the past. I look at our world today and say man it is all falling apart before our very eyes. But I know in no uncertain terms I am not of the world and the world holds no hope for me. The Lord is my hope,my strength and my courage. He makes me bold when I would turn tail and run. He pushes me to do things I could never have imagined in my life prior to knowing him. I am so thankful to God that he is my everything. I am so thankful that he saw me in my sin and said here is one of my own,then called me by name to come and join Him.He chose me,He pursued me,and he wooed me. He has won my Love and my life. We are His portion and He is our prize.

I watch how every day in thousands of different ways Americans are getting more and more hurt, and not knowing how to fix their lives, and their selves,turning further away from God.Here is a nugget of truth. We cannot fix ourselves. We must must must turn our lives over to God. Hand Him the reins of your life and watch your life soar to new heights. Watch all your worries all your fears disappear. Be healed of everything that ails you.

Are you angry all the time? Is it because you are hurting so much over your past life that you cannot move forward? It is time to put your trust in God and let go of the past. The past is over. There is no going back and fixing any of it. If we sit there going ,”if only I had done this? Then maybe this would not have happened? It is time to come to perfect peace and rest that can only be found in Gods perfectly capable,and beyond able hands. You dear friend,are not here by accident. If your reading this God has a message for you. He wants to love you. He wants to smooth the road ahead for you. He wants to make all of your days good days. He loves you more than you could ever know. He is not saying their wont be trials ahead for you.But those trials in His capable hands makes you get through it all, with a smile on your face.Knowing He has your back is something that is unbelievably comforting.

Just think about it,He sent us the Holy spirit to be our comforter. To hold us up no matter what we face as long as we hand it all to God. Allow the Holy spirit to guide you in this life. I can personally promise you will not regret it. More than that God is right there walking you down the correct paths of life. Guiding and directing you. Loving you all along the way. You see God will not ever stop loving you. No matter what we do wrong,God does not reprimand us he corrects us with love and perfect guidance. He will never ever leave your side. If you feel a distance with Him it is due to something your not doing right. Because He does not leave your side. Not even for one moment.He is always present with us,as soon as you invite the Holy spirit in and give your will over to God’s will,He will not forsake you for one moment not one second. You are His and He is yours forever more. Your life becomes one big huge love fest.

Knowing your loved of the father no matter what ,knowing that He will comfort you if you but ask,is a huge weight lifted off ones shoulders. What can’t we face, with Gods love standing right there beside us? No better yet Living inside of us, showing us from our hearts how to live life, AND IT IS A GOOD LIFE!!!!! Let me say this in plain speaking. God is all up in your stuff. He knows your business,He knows your heart. He knows your every want need and desire. Do you know His desire for you? He wants us to know That he Loves us unconditionally. There have never been any conditions placed on you by God. He has loved you long before you were even born. He might be disappointed with you when you make a mistake.But He just wants you to know He loves you.He desires your love in return,and then my friends let me tell you something,When you give your heart to Him He fills you up to over flowing, with love and comfort and knowledge,and strength. He desires to make you so strong in Him that you will not have to even ask a question.

He will fill you with His knowledge. Strength as we all know is in Knowledge of every form. When
you have knowledge on any subject you are prepared for any single circumstance.Rather that be your job or any circumstance in life you can think of.The more we know of anything, the more ready we are for what life throws at us. God wants to fill us up to overflowing with his knowledge and love. So that we can pour our excess into others. He blesses us abundantly in expectation that we will,pour our overflow onto others lives. Faith comes by hearing. We have to share our knowledge of the Lord with people everywhere. If you do not know the Lord and you are reading this ,He is calling to you. Have you had an abundance of mentions about God? Are you seeking for yourself? He will not leave you empty. If you seek you will find. If you knock the door will be open to you.Ask and you shall receive.

You cannot lose in seeking God. He loves you no matter your sins in the past. For all sin is just as bad as any other sin. He forgives every manner of sin. God finds you in the midst of your sin filled life, and calls you. He pursues you. He gives little nuggets of knowledge of Himself to us. He loves us and blesses us in every imaginable way. Life does not have to be hard and broken. It does not have to hurt you always. Life in Gods hands is peace and calm.“The fruit of the Spirit is… peace” -Galatians 5:22.
“Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.” -Isaiah 26:3. We can trust God with all things. He will not ever stop loving you. And if you did not know that He loves you unconditionally,now you do. Human love I know is so very fickle. If we disappoint people we have a chance of losing their love, and or respect. Not with God He loves you no matter what you have done.

Once you have decided to give Him your life. Once you have accepted Jesus Christs shed blood covering over your sin. God throws your sin away so far it can never be seen again. He never looks back in time. He only looks forward. Yes you can disappoint the Lord ,but His love is never removed from you. Even sinners who wallow in their sin and enjoy it,are loved by God unconditionally. John 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. This is not just a fly by night promise.This is more of a covenant with you. They live with you inside you from that day you accept Jesus, for eternity.

John 10:27-29
27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. God chooses you,Jesus pursues you,and woos you forever more.He never stops loving us. As a matter of fact it is safe to say He loves us before we are even conceived.in closing I just offer you some good advice,come experience the joy of knowing the Lord. He already knows you ,mind,body,and soul. Come get to know Him and His ways.You have nothing to lose by giving God your trust,you have everything to gain.

Love in Christ Jesus, Tammy
