Even with the abiding presence of the Holy Spirit in us as born again believers, we humans sin and sin, and sin again. Imagine the scene after the Rapture, when un-redeemed humans will be sinning wantonly, without restraint.
With His departure at the time of the Rapture, sin will then be totally unrestrained. With the Rapture of His Church – the earth will be filled with only the wontonly unredeemed. Unrestrained by the Holy Spirit and His Church, people will do exactly what they can think of doing sinfully! If they can think it, they will do it – wholeheartedly.
Prophetic passages say that in the End Times humans will do exactly that – they will sin, sin, sin, and relish it all the while.
After the Antichrist is revealed and the Rapture takes true Christians off this planet, evil will grow horribly worse:
- The Holy Spirit is now restraining evil, and restraining the revealing of the Antichrist: “7 For the mystery of lawlessness [rebellion against divine authority and the coming reign of lawlessness] is already at work; [but it is restrained] only until he who now restrains it is taken out of the way. 8 Then the lawless one [the Antichrist] will be revealed.” – 2 Thessalonians 2: verses 7-8
- Satan will be even more active and deceiving during the Great Tribulation: “through the activity of Satan, [attended] with great power [all kinds of counterfeit miracles] and [deceptive] signs and false wonders [all of them lies], 10 and by unlimited seduction to evil and with all the deception of wickedness” – 2 Thessalonians 2: verses 9-10
- Currently the Devil’s “seduction to evil and his …deception of wickedness” is restrained (2 Thessalonians 2: verse 10). Imagine Satan’s seduction and deception getting unrestrained with the removal of Spiritual power in the Rapture!
I believe Bible profecy predicts Christians will be removed from earth in a miraculous Rapture event – prior to the Great Tribulation period. Love this song about it!
You don’t need no baggage, you just get on board
All you need is faith to hear the diesels hummin’
You don’t need no ticket, just thank the Lord.

This predicted end time period is happening right now (July 2020), as I understand it. We are in those End Times.
The rebirth of the nation of Israel in 1948 was a dramatic sign of the times. We are now within that generation’s timespan (of 70-80 years). We have now arrived at the sequential time period for more End Times events.
Jesus and Paul present End Times very clearly for us.
This is the chronology of events as Jesus and Paul and Isaiah present them:
- *the return of the Jews to their homeland
and creation of a Jewish nation (happened in 1948), - *the Apostasy (happening now with NAR-type apostates),
- *the Revealing of the Antichrist (the next thing),
- *the Rapture (can happen any moment),
- *then the Great Tribulation,
- *and then Jesus Returns to Earth as Conquering King,
- *and He establishes His Millennium rule.
It’s happenin’ folks. Ready or not, here it comes. Are you ready?

The Great Apostasy is already happening now. It is taking place right before our eyes. Be careful what you believe, and who you follow.
First – the Apostasy. And the next event is the Revealing of the Antichrist. (This is prior to his actual rule during the Great Tribulation. We Christians will definitely see his “revealing”. But then we get Raptured.
This leader is alive right now and is right this moment being groomed for the top leadership role of the Great Tribulation’s One World Government.
He will be what the Bible calls – the Antichrist. Who knows what his earthly title will be. We don’t know. But biblically he is called the Antichrist. He will first be “revealed” somehow, then the Rapture takes place, and then the Antichrist will usher in the seven year period called the Great Tribulation, requiring the mark of the Beast, persecuting new believers in Christ – and ruling with an iron fist during the Great Tribulation.
This all is being set-up as we speak (as I write). Wow. Very exciting. It is exciting because it means the culmination of all that earth has suffered under. The Fall of Man will end with the setting-up of Jesus’ rule of 1,000 years, called the Millenium, where Christ Himself will rule along with His saints (we who are born again believers).
I’m ready! Are you? All you have to do to be ready: – turn to Jesus and follow Him with sincerity and truth.
