I am eager to hear The Trumpet. I yearn to hear The Shout! To see the dead in Christ rise towards the heavens knowing the call will summon me next.

Imagine what the rest of world will see! I don’t know if there will be the actual bodies of departed loved ones slowly rising into the air, shimmering and glowing as their dead bones are regenerated and replaced with incorruptible flesh. I don’t know if we, those alive in Christ, will be snatched away and visible to those left on the Earth as we rise to meet our already risen Savior in the air.

But I do know that right now it has not happened. We are waiting. Waiting for the last person who is to be saved by the Blood of Christ and the preaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We know that there is a point in time when there will be no more souls left to be saved. We see for ourselves the fruits of our labors becoming more and more scarce. There are fewer people responding to the Gospel. There are more and more people who desire to have their “ears tickled” by rhetoric rather than convicted by the Truth.

The Great Delusion is slowly descending upon the face of the Earth. The social cancers of multi-culturalism and situational ethics have so pervaded the mainline denominations of the Christian world that it is often difficult to discern between a Christian Worship Service and a meeting of the Rotary Club or AMWAY.

The anti-Christ has been given every player on his stage. All the actors are cast, all the sets have been built. The script is ready, all we wait for is the anti-Christ to take his spot and begin the final act of the Human Drama.

The final evolution of Man is not going to be as the pagans and atheists imagine. It won’t be the grand and glorious self awareness of their own godhood. On the contrary, it will be the final step of Man’s corruption and avarice. The last step taken into the total depravity of Man’s soul and utter shattering of the Image of God placed into Man. The complete betrayal of God and His providence in exchange for the most ancient lie, “You will be like God.”

The Lord will finally comply with Man and with Satan and give them what they most desperately desire; a world without the Hand of God gently preserving His creation. Man will be at the mercy of Satan and Satan will have free reign over creation. His reign will be a reign of Terror unimagined in the annals of history. Yet Man will continue to curse God rather than turn to Him and be saved.

I wait for The Shout and The Trumpet blast. The World waits for its savior as well. Mr. Anti-Christ, you’re on.
