After the Rapture

I've often envisioned a repeat of WW2.

Economic depression coinciding with massive crisis due to sudden disappearance of people.
(I don't see more that 10%. A poetic harvest of first fruits God's tithe of people - Mostly children)

Dynamic leader rescues much of western world, creates an army/police force, seizes abandoned assets, nationalizes the rest to provide basic needs.

Vilifies religion as cause of worlds problems, set up new "church" and begins persecution of non conformant peoples.

Things start to look better when Peace and Jewish temple are built due to divine actions that the beast calls his own...

and then God starts responding.


As much as we try to paint a picture of how God will orchestrate things,

I suspect we will be so AWESTRUCK it will explain the silence in Heaven just before the praise and cheers raise a thunder in heaven that reaches earth.

Yes, pre-Trib.

And yes, very definitely woman (XX).

Not the first time, and probably not the last time, someone thought I was the other gender :lol
Unless, of course, :rapture happens before . . .

Some things just don't show up online. It's not as if the print from woman posters is lumpy or curvy :lol


And no offense taken :smile

If you remember the Supermod of the old Forum Galactus, she was often mistaken for a man.

I have found it best to just let superpersons be what they are. :bow

For them, nothing works quite like the threat of smote-ing. :nukes

If my belief is correct, and there is an age of accountability and all children under that age will also be raptured, what will the world be like without children? Rapturing all the worlds children is one way all countries will feel the effects of the aftermath when we depart. Many countries will have a very low percent of adults raptured, but all countries have children. Its almost as if there is a Master plan……..

Sadly, with abortion, abandonment, letting the state handle children, I can only imagine the grieving words of the world will be : Good Riddance.

The testimony against them will be stark and poignant, but they will think they have been blessed.

I’ve been thinking lately that with all the talk of global fertility rates dropping all around the world, is God slowing down the addition of people into the world specifically because it’s almost time to go home? I just can’t shake this feeling every time I hear Elon talk about it, or articles written about it happening in other countries. A lot of countries seem to be starting to worry about this…

Interesting comment, something until now I never thought about.

Knowing He is just and loving, I expect Him to take all the children. And I'm so thankful the rapture is soon so all the little ones who are abused and trafficked will be rescued by Him!!!
It should be yet another big wake up for a world missing all its children (at least having none for nearly a year).

And every frozen embryo out there.. I also believe all unborn children will also be taken, I pray no child will be left here to be mutilated, hurt, brain washed or lied to by the powers that be. Hopefully God will have told Satan that no one under a certain age will be allowed to be given the mark. I've always worried about the children born during the tribulation. I've always prayed that God will keep them safe from the mark.

It's my understanding that a person has to make the decision to take the mark. I would not think young kids would be competent to do that.

Depending on if there is a gap between the Rapture and the signing of the Peace treaty, and how long it lasts, is it possible that no child will reach the age of accountability before the Second Coming??

We do know those who take the MOB will forever be condemned. If there is an age of accountability (which I believe there is), then all children below that age were raptured, regardless of their sins. I believe its probable the same would apply to kids born after the rapture. Even with a time frame of a year or two between the rapture and the start of the tribulation, at most a child would be 9 at the end of the Trib, which almost all believe would be below whatever the age of accountability is. The parents in most cases would be the ones making the decision for the child to recieve the MOB

Revelation 13
15 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. 16 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,

Revelation 14
9 Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, 10 he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. 11 And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.”

Agree that all kids could be below the age of accountability by the Second Coming.
I cant imagine that parents would have the authority to make a child take the mark..to me the MOB would be taken with a person's freewill to make the decision.
Of course this is my speculation, not Biblical.
