Trouble brewing?

How many of you can look around and marvel at the leaps and bounds that we as mankind have come from since the Wright Brothers launch into aviation history to now. It makes me sad to observe the current ways  of those followers of Jesus Christ who are wandering in spiritual dryness,and those same folks how they latch on to anything that comes down the pike that even remotely has a bit of spiritual to it.
This has and is leading many away from the real,solid truth that is available to all of us via God's Word. I say this because Laura and I are witnessing many churches and denominations going away from the bible and embracing other doctrines. It grieves us and I hope it grieves others.
We as the Body of Christ must stop this abandonment from the Way and the Truth and the Life Jesus Christ who has spoken,taught and died so we can have Life...Eternal Life with Him someday. What am I speaking of? What I am speaking about is the infection of books written by people who are deceiving Christians with stories of  false hope,false peace and false ideas like we as Christians are not going to be here when Jesus comes back to judge,that we will be "taken up" before all that happens.
Read Matthew 24 verse 29-30
Matt 24:29 “Immediately after the suffering of those days, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of heaven will be shaken.
Matt 24:30 Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and all the tribes of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man arriving on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
 Look at the first word in this verse. Immediately/at once after tribulation not a day or even a hour but right away.
Read 1 Thess 4:16-17 
1Thess 4:16 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.
1Thess 4:17 Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord.
Jesus doesn't return quietly or secretly but in a way that ALL the earth's people will see Him and the sound of the trump gives us a time frame.
Read Rev 11:15-19 
Rev 11:15 Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he shall reign forever and ever.”
Rev 11:16 And the twenty-four elders who sit on their thrones before God fell on their faces and worshiped God,
Rev 11:17 saying, “We give thanks to you, Lord God Almighty, who is and who was, for you have taken your great power and begun to reign. 
Rev 11:18 ​​​​​​​​The nations raged, but your wrath came, and the time for the dead to be judged, and for rewarding your servants, the prophets and saints, and those who fear your name, both small and great, and for destroying the destroyers of the earth.” 
Rev 11:19 Then God's temple in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant was seen within his temple. There were flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, an earthquake, and heavy hail. 
At the last trump Jesus returns with all His Glory and Power and Jesus comes to judge.
Now look at 2 Peter 3:10-12
2Pet 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief; when it comes, the heavens will disappear with a horrific noise, and the celestial bodies will melt away in a blaze, and the earth and every deed done on it will be laid bare.
2Pet 3:11 Since all these things are to melt away in this manner, what sort of people must we be, conducting our lives in holiness and godliness,
2Pet 3:12 while waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God? Because of this day, the heavens will be burned up and dissolve, and the celestial bodies will melt away in a blaze!
Now the Day of the Lord will come upon the righteous and the wicked just as the rain falls on both of them now.I know that many have been taught for years that Rapture will happen yes it will right before Jesus Christ returns to judge all nations and all people.  And as long as the devil can keep this lie going that rapture will happen and then everyone will have a second chance to become a follower of Jesus,all I can say is dig and study with the Holy Spirit by your side and be as the Bereans. Learn the Truth and understand the depth of this and get yourself right with Jesus Christ because once He returns your chance is over with and when Jesus comes you or I haven't got a clue so as you can still breath ask Jesus into your life and get yourself to a Bible and start reading the Gospel of John it is a great place to start and it explains very well Who,what and why Jesus did what He did for all of mankind.Also let someone know about your decision for Christ.
