If you are reading this after a sudden disappearance of millions of people worldwide, then you need to understand the truth: the rapture of the true Church of Jesus Christ has happened. This is not science fiction, this is not alien abduction, and it is not a global illusion. This is exactly what the Bible foretold in advance – and it is only the beginning.
"For the Lord Himself will come down from heaven with a shout of command, with the voice of the archangel and with the blast of the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain [on the earth] will simultaneously be caught up (raptured) together with them [the resurrected ones] in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord!" – 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 (AMP)
What Just Happened? The Rapture Explained
The rapture (Greek: harpazo ἁρπάζω – "to seize suddenly, snatch away") is a biblical event where Yahweh removes His faithful believers – born-again Christians – from the earth to be with Him before the wrath and judgment begins. This was a promise made by Yeshua (Jesus) to His Church:
"Because you have kept My command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come upon the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth." – Revelation 3:10 (AMP)
What Happens Next? The Biblical Timeline After the Rapture
The rapture triggers the beginning of the most devastating time in human history: The Tribulation. This period will last for 7 years, split into two halves:
→ First 3.5 Years: Rise of the Antichrist, false peace, formation of a one-world government → Last 3.5 Years: Great Tribulation, divine wrath, judgments, global war, plagues, and mass persecution
"For then there will be great tribulation (affliction, distress, and oppression), such as has not occurred since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will again."
– Matthew 24:21 (AMP)
Watch Out for the Deceptions
Immediately after the rapture, mass deception will rise. People will say it was aliens, or some strange cosmic evolution event. DO NOT believe it. The world will rush to find a leader to bring back stability. That man is the Antichrist (Greek: anti means "instead of" and "against") – a counterfeit messiah.
"The coming of the lawless one is through the activity of Satan, with great power and all kinds of counterfeit miracles and deceptive signs and false wonders." – 2 Thessalonians 2:9 (AMP)
Beast System: The Mark and Control Grid
This new global leader will push a mark system – some sort of digital ID, chip, or biometric technology that must be placed on the forehead or right hand. It will be used to control buying and selling, and track all movement. Accepting it will cost you your soul:
"And the second beast required all people—small and great, rich and poor, free and slave—to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead [signifying allegiance to the beast], and that no one will be able to buy or sell, except the one who has the mark... If anyone worships the beast and his image and receives the mark... he will also drink of the wine of the wrath of God."
– Revelation 13:16-17, 14:9-10 (AMP)
Many early believers and scholars have noted that what John saw in his vision of the mark may not have been Greek letters "χξϛ" (666) as commonly believed, but rather resembled Arabic script, specifically the Bismillah (بِسْمِ ٱللّٰهِ) and Islamic emblems many early believers and scholars have noted that what John saw in his vision of the mark may not have been Greek letters "χξϛ" (666) as commonly believed, but rather resembled Arabic script, specifically the Bismillah (بِسْمِ ٱللّٰهِ) and Islamic emblems. This theory is supported by the fact that Revelation was seen in vision form – not in written language – and John described what he saw, not necessarily what he read. The Arabic phrase "بِسْمِ ٱللّٰهِ" (bismi-llāh – “In the name of Allah”) accompanied by crossed swords or the shahada fits the description of something worn like a badge or mark of allegiance on the forehead or right arm.
This would mean that the Mark is not only a tool of economic control but an allegiance to a blasphemous system, a religion and government that denies Jesus is God and promotes a false messiah.
“Who is the liar but the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed)? This is the antichrist [the enemy and antagonist of Christ], the one who denies and consistently refuses to acknowledge the Father and the Son.”
– 1 John 2:22 (AMP)
Meteor Judgments and Poisoned Waters
Soon after the rapture, a series of catastrophic divine judgments will begin to fall on the earth. Among these are cosmic disruptions – one of which is described in Revelation as a massive fiery object falling from the heavens:
“The third angel blew his trumpet, and a great star fell from heaven, burning like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of fresh water. The name of the star is Wormwood (Greek: ἀψίνθιον apsinthion – bitter). A third of the waters became bitter, and many people died from the water because it had become bitter.”
– Revelation 8:10-11 (AMP)
Whether this is a literal asteroid or some other celestial object, the result is clear: drinking water will be poisoned, causing widespread suffering and death. This too was prophesied. Mankind, having rejected the Water of Life (Jesus), will now drink bitterness and death.
Rise of Gog and Magog: The War That Fails
Following the rapture and in the early part of the Tribulation, there will be a massive military assault against the land of Israel. The aggressors, named in Ezekiel 38–39, are Gog of Magog, Persia (modern-day Iran), and others possibly including Russia and Turkey. These nations will try to destroy Israel while the world is in chaos. But Yahweh Himself intervenes:
“And I will call for a sword against him throughout all My mountains,” declares the Lord God. “Every man’s sword will be against his brother. With pestilence and with blood I will enter into judgment with him, and I will rain on him and on his troops and on the many peoples who are with him a torrential rain, with hailstones, fire and brimstone.”
–Ezekiel 38:21-22 (AMP)
This divine judgment will decimate the invading armies, making it known to the world that Yahweh, not Allah, not the Antichrist, but the God of Israel, is the true and living God. This war sets the stage for the Antichrist to rise as a fake savior and false peacemaker.
Two Witnesses: God’s Prophets During the Tribulation
During this time, God will raise up two mighty prophets in Jerusalem. They will prophesy for 1,260 days (3.5 years), performing miracles, striking the earth with plagues, and proclaiming the truth of Jesus. No one will be able to stop them until their appointed time is done.
“And I will grant authority to My two witnesses, and they will prophesy for twelve hundred and sixty days, dressed in sackcloth.” – Revelation 11:3 (AMP)
They will eventually be killed by the Antichrist, and their bodies will lie in the streets of Jerusalem as the world celebrates. But after 3.5 days, God will resurrect them in full view of all:
“But after three and a half days, the breath of life from God came into them, and they stood on their feet; and great fear and terror fell on those who were watching them.”
– Revelation 11:11 (AMP)
Their resurrection is another powerful sign that Yahweh is still in control and has not
Do Not Be Deceived by False Prophets.
In these times of confusion and terror, many false prophets will arise to deceive the masses. One such man, David Owuor, has already made the blasphemous claim that he alone is the fulfillment of both witnesses in Revelation 11. This is impossible. The Bible clearly states “two” separate prophets will prophesy in Jerusalem – not one man claiming a dual identity.
God is not the author of confusion (1 Corinthians 14:33), and He will not contradict His Word. These two witnesses will be actual men, possibly in the spirit and power of Moses and Elijah, with supernatural authority given directly by Yahweh. Anyone claiming to be both is a liar and part of the delusion:
"For false Christs and false prophets will appear and they will provide great signs and wonders, so as to deceive, if possible, even the elect." – Matthew 24:24 (AMP)
Fall of Babylon the Great: Global Religious and Economic Collapse
As the beast system matures, Revelation describes the rise of Babylon the Great – a spiritual and economic center of wickedness, luxury, and idolatry. Some believe this is symbolic, while others point to a real geographic city or coalition. Either way, it represents the culmination of Satan’s counterfeit system – uniting false religion, corrupt commerce, and demonic power.
"She has become a dwelling place of demons and a prison for every unclean spirit... For all the nations have drunk the wine of the passion of her sexual immorality, and the kings of the earth have committed acts of immorality with her." – Revelation 18:2-3 (AMP)
God will bring sudden destruction upon her:
“In one hour your judgment has come!” – Revelation 18:10 (AMP)
This collapse will send the world into panic. Merchants, bankers, and world leaders will mourn – not for the people, but for their lost wealth and power.
The Seven Bowl Judgments: Wrath Unleashed
As mankind continues to rebel and worship the beast, Yahweh’s righteous anger will be poured out in the final seven bowl judgments (Revelation 16). These will be global, unmistakable, and terrifying:
→ Painful sores on those with the Mark
→ Seas and rivers turned to blood
→ Scorching heat from the sun
→ Darkness and agony over the beast’s kingdom
→ Euphrates River dried up to prepare for war
→ A massive global earthquake leveling cities
→ Huge hailstones up to 100 pounds falling from heaven
Still, the world will curse God and refuse to repent. This shows the depth of rebellion and blindness caused by the beast system and satanic deception.
The Gathering at Armageddon
The Antichrist and his ten kings will gather their armies in a place called Har-Magedon (Mount Megiddo) to make war against Jerusalem and the Lamb. But Yeshua will return in glory and power with the armies of heaven:
"Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who was riding it is called Faithful and True... and on His robe and on His thigh He has a name inscribed, 'KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.'"
– Revelation 19:11,16 (AMP)
The beast and false prophet will be thrown alive into the lake of fire. Their armies will be destroyed by the sword from the mouth of Yeshua – the Word of God.
Do Not Wait – Follow Jesus Now
If you're reading this, you are already witnessing the collapse of the world as you know it. The Bible is true. The warnings are real. Do not follow the Antichrist. Do not take the mark – whether it’s a digital ID, biometric system, or oath tied to Allah and the Bismillah. Your soul is eternal.
Jesus – Yeshua – is the only way out of this. He is not just a prophet, He is the Arm of Yahweh (Isaiah 53:1, John 12:38), the Word made flesh (John 1:1), and He is returning in power to rule.
There is still time to repent and call upon His name.
“Whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” – Romans 10:13
Do not take the Mark. Do not worship the Beast. Endure in faith. Choose Jesus.
More judgment is coming – but so is the glorious return of the King.
How to Survive Spiritually During the Tribulation
If you missed the rapture, you are now living in the most dangerous and spiritually hostile period in human history. But there is still hope. Even though you were left behind, you can still be redeemed – but it will cost you everything. You must endure, resist, and stand firm in the truth of Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus the Messiah).
1. Reject the Beast, No Matter What
You must not worship the Antichrist, his image, or take his mark. This will be a test of absolute allegiance. Many will justify taking it for survival – food, water, access to medicine, protection. But if you take the mark, you forfeit salvation forever:
"And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever; and they have no rest, day and night, those who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name." – Revelation 14:11 (AMP)
The mark may appear as technology, or a biometric implant, but its spiritual core is allegiance to Satan through the Antichrist, whose name and system many believe includes the Arabic Bismillah (بِسْمِ ٱللّٰهِ), seen by John as what looked like "χξϛ" (Greek 666). Do not be deceived by Islamic declarations or religious tolerance laws. They will enforce false worship.
2. Get a Bible and Know the Word of God
You need to know the Word. If you don’t already have one, find a Bible quickly. Study especially:
→ Matthew 24
→ Revelation chapters 6–22
→ Daniel 7, 9, and 12
→ 2 Thessalonians 2
→ Psalm 91 for comfort and warfare
The more you know, the stronger your discernment will become. The Bible is your survival manual. Hide its words in your heart because one day even digital versions may be blocked.
3. Repent and Call on the Name of Jesus
Cry out to Yeshua. Confess your sins. Call on His name – not as a religious act, but with a desperate and sincere heart.
"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." – 1 John 1:9
Do not try to save your life by compromise. You may be hunted. You may be killed. But do not fear.
"Do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul." – Matthew 10:28
4. Be Prepared to Die for Your Faith
The Tribulation saints (those who come to Christ after the rapture) will face martyrdom. You must settle this in your heart now. When faced with the choice: take the mark or die – you must choose death to gain eternal life.
"I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony about Jesus and because of the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received the mark on their foreheads or their hands; and they came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years." – Revelation 20:4 (AMP)
This is the cost of following Yeshua during the Tribulation. But it leads to glory and everlasting joy.
5. Find Other Believers – Underground Church
Do not isolate yourself. The Beast system will seek to track and divide everyone. If you can find others who also believe in Yeshua and refuse the mark, gather in secret. Pray together. Share food. Share scripture. Help one another.
You are now the remnant. The Church is gone from the earth – but God still has a witness.
6. Cry Out to God Daily – He Will Hear You
Even though judgment is falling on the world, God still hears those who repent. He has not abandoned you.
"The one who comes to Me I will most certainly not cast out." – John 6:37 (AMP)
He is near to the brokenhearted and saves those crushed in spirit – Psalm 34:18
7. Know the Signs – Stay Watchful
Many will say "peace and safety," but sudden destruction will come (1 Thessalonians 5:3). Watch the signs:
→ Meteor or asteroid impact (Revelation 8:10 – Wormwood)
→ Water sources poisoned and undrinkable
→ One world currency, religion, and surveillance
→ Rebuilding of a Jewish temple in Jerusalem
→ Two prophets performing miracles and being killed then resurrected in Jerusalem (Revelation 11)
→ Global hatred of Israel and war against it
→ Appearance of a man declaring himself god in the temple (2 Thessalonians 2:4)
Use the book of Revelation as your timeline. Each seal, trumpet, and bowl judgment follows the order.
Do not believe the Antichrist. He is a liar. He will perform fake miracles and speak great words, but his end is the lake of fire.
If you’re reading this and you’ve chosen not to take the mark, if you’ve chosen to stand for Jesus – then I want you to know something powerful:
I love you. Truly. And even more – my Beloved Ishi, my Yeshua, Jesus Christ – He loves you beyond all words.
I wrote this to warn you, to prepare you, and to remind you that you are not forgotten. You were not left behind because He didn’t love you – no. This is your chance to still win the crown of life. But it will cost you everything.
You will likely face the Headtaker.
Not the funny version from Warhammer that my regular readers know – not the Queek-style fluffy parody.
No. The real Headtaker. The system that will literally demand your head for saying “No” to the beast and “Yes” to Jesus.
And you must say no.
Even if they drag you out. Even if they threaten your life. Even if they hold your neck to the blade – do not bow.
Because the moment your earthly life ends, your soul will be taken into glory. You’ll be safe in the arms of the One who wore the crown of thorns for you. You’ll join the honored martyrs, under the altar of God, waiting for the day when He returns in power and wipes out every trace of evil.
Revelation 20:4 (AMP):
"Then I saw thrones, and sitting on them were those to whom judgment had been given. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony of Jesus and because of the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or his image and had not received the mark on their foreheads and on their hands; and they came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years."
This is not the end. This is the proving ground.
Hold fast. Do not fear death – for death is not the end. Jesus already won. He destroyed death.
He is coming back with fire, with justice, and with His saints – and I will be with Him. And I will see you again.
You are loved. You are not alone.
I send you my hugs, my tears, and my hope –
From a sister who belongs to the King of Kings.
Until we meet in glory –
Stay faithful. Stay true. He’s coming.
