In the link is a short little video clip explaining very clearly from scripture, why this is true Under 7 minutes, the clip is well worth your time.

Deserving and faithful Jewish people will be taken into the LORD's protection. The Mount of Olives. People left on earth will suffer great tribulation from then on. It is the LORD's desire that none are lost so people are going to HAMMERED to get them to repent. I re-read the Book of Revelation yesterday and it seems obvious that the stubborn, who refuse to repent, must be of pretty low intelligence.....riddled with evil. We also know that there are not going to be a lot of people around. Jerusalem plays a big role in the Great Tribulation as this is where the two witnesses will preach from. Therefore - most of the action will still be taking place in the Middle East. Of course - the rest of the world will be in chaos and the mark of the beast will have to be implemented in an effort to restore order.

I still believe that the mark of the beast is something to do with Islam. This is the beast that will be the common denominator in the Gog / Magog war. As all true Bible believing Christians won't be on earth - Islam will be the driving force. Almighty God tells us that He cannot help someone who has willingly taken the mark of the beast. That simply MUST mean that the LORD cannot accept someone who has willingly accepted a false god........... despite all the evidence that the LORD has presented to them. I find it difficult to believe that an RFID chip will be the mark of the beast. With all the destruction and chaos going on, I can't see loads of computers being around. The world will be reduced to rubble on the Day of the LORD. It may well be that people will be engaging in a sort of barter system. They will need to register and wear arm or headbands with the name of Allah written on them. This will be true of the western world as well as we are already being flooded with muslim "refugees". They are in place, in our midst, and not restricted to the Middle East anymore. Interestingly - the caravan threatening the USA border will most likely hold a lot of Roman Catholics too. Tying into the idea that the Pope may step onto the world stage, claiming to be God.

I might be very wrong about the mark of the beast stuff but it's interesting to try and figure out. Enjoy the video....it will give you great clarity. 

The Rapture and the Day of the Lord are on the Same Day
