Seek Jesus
If you have recognized the fact that God has supernaturally snatched away His people, then before you do anything else, do not delay in seeking Jesus and giving yourself to Him. It's too late to be caught up in the clouds, but it is not too late to become part of His final harvest and live forever in perfect peace with your Creator.
If you've been trusting in yourself and something you've done, it's time to turn and place your trust completely in Jesus and His perfect sacrifice, in your place, on the cross.
Then he said to Jesus, “Lord remember me when You come into Your kingdom.” Jesus said to him, “Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.”
But Paul called with a loud voice, saying, “Do yourself no harm, for we are all here. Then he called for a light, ran in, and fell down trembling before Paul and Silas. And he brought them out and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” So they said, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.”
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. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. For “whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved.”
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.
He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him. But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
Will there be any outward indication that you have been washed and have become new? Absolutely! Things you find yourself doing, which are really God working through you, are later indications of a transformation that has already happened.
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.
Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling; for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.
What really happened to those who disappeared?
No, it wasn't aliens!
Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.
If there appear to be non-human beings walking around claiming to be aliens or anything else, they are simply demonic spirits who fell with satan. The Bible warns about satan and his ministers being able to falsely appear to us like angels of light.
For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.
A time of great deception
Recognize that during the time between the catching-away of those who know Jesus and His Second Coming to earth, great deception, beyond anything in history, will begin to spread. We're not given specific details other than a warning that it could deceive even the elect, those who have placed their trust in Jesus.
For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened.
Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it. For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. See, I have told you beforehand.
Therefore if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert!’ do not go out; or ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms!’ do not believe it. For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
For in those days there will be tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the creation which God created until this time, nor ever shall be. And unless the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake, whom He chose, He shortened the days.
Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or, ‘Look, He is there!’ do not believe it. For false christs and false prophets will rise and show signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. But take heed; see, I have told you all things beforehand.
But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars of heaven will fall, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken. Then they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. And then He will send His angels, and gather together His elect from the four winds, from the farthest part of earth to the farthest part of heaven.
The Two Beasts
The first "beast" or global entity and its leader (the Antichrist) will be assisted by another global "beast" and its leader (the False Prophet), which is characterized by great deception. While the first beast will be known for statesmanship and the appearance of global peace and security, the second beast will be known for technology and the appearance of incredible wonders.
The second beast will didōmi (furnish, artificially) a pneuma (spirit or rational intelligence) into an eikōn (image, icon) of the first beast, where the word image is used the same as in the phrase "disk image". In modern terminology, you could say the second beast develops an artificially intelligent clone of the first beast.
Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon. And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men.
And he deceives those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived. He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed.
The Mark
DANGER: Do not take the mark!
The Bible tells us there will be a permanent identification mark, issued by the global government, which will be required to complete any financial transaction. No one will be able to buy or sell without this identification mark. Everyone who takesreceives the mark will give their allegiance to the leader of the global government (the Antichrist), and it will be a permanent decision, from which there will be NO RETURN!
WARNING: There will be NO HOPE of ETERNAL LIFE in Heaven for anyone who receives the identification mark!
He 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 or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.
