The Horrors After Rapture
It is a general knowledge that Jesus Christ is coming to take away prepared saints ( which we all know as rapture ).
It is also a common knowledge that this event will happen soon and suddenly.

But what will happen to this earth after the rapture of the saint?
Matthew 24:21
For then shall be great tribulation such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time no nor ever shall be
After the rapture of the saints, a personality called the Antichrist will take over the word and ruthlessly deal with anyone who oppose his government.
He will unleash terror particularly on those who miss the rapture due to their carelessness, for standing against his heresy and declaring their allegiance to Christ. To start with, he will make them suffer intense hunger and deprivation for opposing his policy on doing business. But this is just a tip of iceberg of what is to come later. If you didn't know this before pay attention! No one will be allowed to transact business,sell and purchase anything or earn a living without the seal of the Antichrist on them.
Everyone except few which the Bible calls The elect of God will submit themselves in awe and wonder
Mark 13 vs 20 And except that the Lord had shortened those days no flesh should be saved but for the elect's sake whom he hath chosen he hath shortened the days
But the scriptures reveal that anyone who receives his seal mark name or number will be doomed forever.
Revelation 14 vs 11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever and they have no rest day nor night who worship the beast and his image and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name
Aside from hunger and deprivation, the Antichrist will subject Christian who miss the rapture to the most inhumane treatments you can ever imagine. Some will have hot iron stuck into thier Anus, some will be subjected to all kinds of torture, all in an attempt to make them deny Christ. The horror, suffering, pain, injuries and misery that will be inflicted on them is unspeakable; it is better imagined than experienced.
Jesus says of the period of the Antichrist
Matthew 24 vs 21 Then shall be the great tribulation such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time no nor ever shall be
The great tribulation the Bible tells us I will bring the most intense suffering and anguish the world has never experienced since its creation. Word war 1 and 2, inter tribal wars, civil wars and all other cataclysmic occurrences in the history of human existence put together cannot compared with the great tribulation.

During the great tribulation the earth will be plagued with disease and famine. Wild animals will come out of the jungle to tear human flesh into pieces and feed on them. Hail and fire mingle with blood will consume people as well as destroy one-third of the world's sources of sustenance.
Revelation 8 : 7 The first angel sounded and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood and they were cast upon the earth and the third part of trees was burnt up and all green grass was burnt up
Also seas will turn to blood and fountains of water will become wormwood a poisonous thing if swallowed. In essence water including those you have stored in your house or poured in your dispenser, will be dangerous to your health.
Revelation 8 vs 8 - 11 And the second angel sounded and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea and the third part of the sea became blood.
9 And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea and had life died and the third part of the ships were destroyed.
10 And the third angel sounded and there fell a great star from heaven burning as it were a lamp and it fell upon the third part of the rivers and upon the fountains of waters.
11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood and the third part of the waters became wormwood and many men died of the waters because they were made bitter
Pause and imagine life without water to drink or bathe for just 24 hours. Can you cope with that?
Giant locust that sting like scorpions will equally torment men and women for five months without relief. The pain afflicted on victims will make them wish they were dead.
Revelation 3 vs 3-9 3 And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth and unto them was given power as the scorpions of the earth have power.
4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth neither any green thing neither any tree but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.
5 And to them it was given that they should not kill them but that they should be tormented five months and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion when he striketh a man.
6 And in those days shall men seek death and shall not find it and shall desire to die and death shall flee from them.
7 And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold and their faces were as the faces of men.
8 And they had hair as the hair of women and their teeth were as the teeth of lions.
9 And they had breastplates as it were breastplates of iron and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle
For an angel cry: "woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth..." (revelation 8:13) meaning the event will absolutely be terrifying. Yet your eternal salvation will depend on your ability to endure the horrors and the untold suffering.
