One of the greatest events, in the history of the world, is about to take place! It is referred to by Christians as the "rapture". It's a time when Jesus Christ will "rapture" or remove all the truly saved people, according to 1 Thessalonians chapter 4, 1 Corinthians 15 and other verses. It will usher in the most horrifying period ever known to man! A seven-year period, the Bible calls the "Great Tribulation" - the Time of the Anti-Christ! It was prophesied nearly 2000 years ago in the Bible. AND IT IS BEING FULFILLED TO THE SMALLEST DETAIL - BEFORE YOUR VERY EYES! If you think the rapture is just a pie-in-the-sky, Bible-thumpers, fantasy - stick around friend - you need to know what is taking place!

In Matthew 24:37, Jesus Christ provides a picture of the end-times: "But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be." And what was "as the days of Noah" like? Genesis 6:11 says, "The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with VIOLENCE."

Could there possibly be a better description of this generation? Violence is daily splattered across our TV's and newspapers. According to a 1987 Justice Department study - eight out of 10 Americans will be victims of violent crime. Since 1960, violent crime has increased over 500 Per Cent. Over 16,000 crimes occur at public schools every single day!

Newsweek magazine, August 2, 1993, says, "Violence is devastating this generation, . . .".

Another unusual description is found in Luke chapter 17: "Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; . . . Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed." The days of Lot was characterized by Sodom and Gomorrah - homosexuality and sodomy!

The recent homosexual March on Washington, endorsed by President Clinton, was the largest such gathering in history. Men dressed as women, women bare breasted, men passionately kissing other men, openly simulating acts of sexual perversion, much as in the days of Lot, they proudly flaunted their sin and sodomy. As soldiers, declaring war on decency, they marched and chanted, "We're young! We're queer! We're gonna rule the world".

Sodomy and homosexuality has exploded on mainstream America - virtually overnight! Until 1974, the American Psychiatric Association, listed homosexuality as a mental disorder. Sodomy is still against the law in some states. And when you consider the deadly plague of AIDS - common sense and compassion, would at the very least discourage the homosexual lifestyle. And yet, without rhyme or reason, homosexuality is "romanced and glamorized" by the media, talk shows, and politicians - literally day and night! Senator Ted Kennedy, (and many other politicians), has vowed to pass legislation for homosexuals to be protected under the Civil Rights Act!

The media has portrayed the homosexual relationship as a monogamous, loving, family environment, but according to the Institute for Sex Research - the average homosexual will have between 300 and 500 sex partners! And 28 percent of male homosexuals admitted to having sex with 2000 partners!

Books such as Heather Has Two Mommies and Daddy's Roommate, promoting homosexuality, are appearing in our elementary schools. And according to The Washington Post, bisexuality and homosexuality, have become the "in" thing among our public schools. Echoing the cry of the men of Sodom, in Genesis 19:5, Michael Swift writes in Gay Community News, "We shall sodomize your sons, emblems of your feeble masculinity, we shall seduce them in your schools, in your dormitories, in your gymnasiums, in your locker rooms, in your seminaries, in your youth groups."

One of the clearest prophecies dealing with the end times is 666 - the mark of the beast. No other generation could remotely claim the fulfillment of 666. But without question, you and I, are witnessing the opening of the door to 666!

InformationWeek, a major corporate magazine on Oct. 11, 1993, boldly displayed on it's cover, "The Cashless Society, It's in the Cards", The article dogmatically stated, "Bet your bottom dollar: The United States is becoming a cashless society . . . By next year, cards will be used to pay for health care and insurance, to receive government benefits, and to buy items in vending machines . . ."

Omni magazine, June 1991, announced, "CASH AND CREDIT CARDS WILL SOON BE OBSOLETE. . ."

And if you think they're kidding listen to this piece of information: Newsweek magazine, reported of a pilot program, being tested at the Marine Corp's Parris Island training base in South Carolina. According to Newsweek, "THE BASE IS, IN FACT, A CASHLESS ECONOMY - even the telephones take smart cards."

Pilot programs are already being tested in Minnesota, New Jersey, Iowa, Oklahoma, South Carolina and Dayton, Ohio. And according to Lawrence Rudmann, USDA director of public affairs, "It's only a matter of time before ALL FEDERAL PROGRAMS - are brought into compliance."

In 1974, a strange mark began appearing on products. Until today, virtually everything carries those familiar UPC bar codes. And on every UPC bar code, there is three hidden numbers. THE NUMBER - 666!

But something else has happened . . . It seems some bar codes are mysteriously starting to show up with 2 letters underneath the bar code - the letter F and the letter H! And according to researchers, they stand for forehead or hand. And the purchaser must have the required mark in their forehead or hand before purchasing!

In Matthew 24:7, one of the end-time signs Jesus Christ mentions is, "there shall be . . . earthquakes, in divers places."

Look at these statistics:
Earthquakes registering 6 or more on the Richter Scale ocurred:

• Between 1897 and 1946; 3 every 10 years
• Between 1946 and 1956; the rate went to seven
• Between 1956 and 1966; the rate grew to 17
• By the 1967 to 1976 period the number had swelled to an unbelievable 180!

An increase of 6,000 percent in only 40 years!

Within the last few years, some very unusual and very unexpected events began occurring around the globe. On November 1989, against all odds, the Berlin wall came crashing down. And the once mighty Soviet Empire collapsed with a devastating sound. And the world, we once knew, began to take a new form. Never before in history, world leaders began trumpeting for a New World Order. As trade barriers are quickly being dissolved with the likes of NAFTA, GATT and other treaties, the mysterious New World Order is right on schedule.

And the center stage is set for the soon rise of the Anti-Christ. In Belgium, the headquarters of the European community office, statesman P.H. Spock stood up and said, "The truth is, that the method of international committees has failed. WHAT WE NEED IS A PERSON, someone of the highest order, of great experience, of great authority, of wide influence, of great energy; either a civilian or a military man, no matter what his nationality . . . LET HIM COME QUICKLY." Mr. Spock he will come . . . and he will come quickly!

Author Dave Hunt, begins his book, Global Peace, with this sobering statement, "Somewhere, at this very moment, on planet earth, the Anti-Christ is almost certainly alive-biding his time, AWAITING HIS CUE . . . "

The Bible teaches the Anti-Christ will head up a 10-nation, Revised Roman Empire. And on January 1, 1993, the Revised Roman Empire officially began, called the United States of Europe. The Wichita Eagle described its uncanny birth, ". . . Since the fall of the Roman Empire, there has been the dream of a unified Europe. We are . . . seeing a brand NEW ROMAN EMPIRE RECONSTRUCTED."

The Bible, also refers to the Revised Roman Empire as Babylon. Babylon begins in Genesis chapter 11, when Nimrod tried to reach heaven and bring in a one-world government with the Tower of Babel, which God destroyed. The official poster for the United States of Europe is amazing! Believe it or not, but it actually portrays the United States of Europe as the Tower of Babel, with 12 stars representing the current 12 nations of the United States of Europe! And if that weren't enough, the 12 stars are not ordinary stars - BUT UPSIDE-DOWN PENTEGRAMS (which is the universal symbol for Satanism, found on the cover of THE SATANIC BIBLE)!

But there's more . . . A very interesting news item appeared in the magazine ASTM Standardization News. Standardization News is the world-wide magazine that reports on standards throughout the world. The February 1989 issue was devoted to the United States of Europe. If you don't think the Bible's coming to life, check this: The United States of Europe has decided they will utilize an identifying mark. Page 30, of the article reads, " . . . one cannot market or sell a product UNLESS IT HAS THE EC MARK." Revelation 13:17, on the Mark of the Beast, reads almost identical! "And that no man might buy or sell, SAVE HE THAT HAD THE MARK . . . "

Friend, Jesus is coming soon! Prophecy after prophecy, not one, not two, but many, fulfilled to the smallest detail, at the same time, seemingly overnight, exactly as the Bible prophesied over 2000 years ago - to say, is all just by chance or coincidence, is ridiculous!

The Bible prophesies a peace treaty, between Israel and the Middle East will usher in the great tribulation. John Walvoord, in his best selling book, Armageddon, Oil and the Middle East Crisis, (p.113), says, "A Peace settlement in the Middle East is one of the most important events predicted for the end time."

And on September 13, 1993, the peace treaty process began. As the world stood in awe, Israel and the PLO signed an historic peace treaty. And peace treaties with Jordan, and Syria are currently in the works.

Friend, something very significant is about to happen. It's so obvious, Time magazine of September 13, 1993, made these remarkable statements, "The Past few years have been an age of miracles. . . The Berlin Wall tumbles. The Soviet empire melts away. . . Now comes what must be considered one of THE GREATEST MIRACLES OF ALL: the first acknowledgement by Israelis and Palestinians that they share the land both call home." And the article said this, "Unimaginable events, consummations devoutly wished for but never really expected, have succeeded one another AS IF THE CREATOR HAD WHISPERED UP A NEW WORLD."

Jack Van Impe was recently asked, in light of all the world-wide events taking place, just how near are we to the rapture? Jack Van Impe, replied, ". . . in forty years of preaching and teaching prophecy I've never been able to say this, BUT WE'RE JUST MINUTES, HOURS, DAYS AWAY . . . "
