Historic Apocalypse System
The account of Noah and the Ark, therefore, is a call to action in our day. It is a reminder of God's mercy, His judgment, and His unwavering desire for all to find salvation. It is a call to preach the Gospel, to be ready, and to trust in the promise of the Rapture, a promise of divine rescue and eternal life. As the door of the Ark was shut, ushering in a new era, so too will the door of God's grace one day close, calling us to be prepared for the day of His return. Until the last person gets saved that can get saved without God’s wrath’s intervention just like with the Ark, the door will be shut for avoiding His judgment wrath to come which stimulates more to get saved the hard way to open to a new following era of even more to be saved. This is God’s historic and future book of Revelation prophetic cause and effect (reap what you sow, Galatians 6:7-9) shown to be in the long game purpose.
The horizon of our present world is often shrouded in a chilling darkness, a pervasive sense of unease that permeates every facet of life. As the Apostle Paul warned, "But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come" (2 Timothy 3:1). One of the most striking indicators of these perilous times, a harbinger of the coming judgment, is the relentless tide of violence that engulfs our society. First and foremost, the world must be saturated with violence. Luke 17:26-27 and Genesis 6:5, 8, 11-12 tell us that the days preceding the Rapture will mirror those of Noah, when the earth was "filled with violence." This is not merely a localized issue, but a widespread condition, a pervasive sense of insecurity that necessitates daily self-defense. This is not a matter of isolated incidents but rather a general feeling as if it is impossible to be a Christian in a world of darkness and evil….
….Noah & his family, Lot and his family, Rehab and her family…looking at these historic accounts with their applied logic in mind, look back at the closing of the Ark's door. Genesis 7:16 states, "So those that entered, male and female of all flesh, went in as God had commanded him; and the Lord shut him in." It was not Noah who shut the door, but God. This act signifies divine protection, a separation from the impending judgment. This mirrors the concept of the Rapture, wherein believers are biblical Greek ‘harpazo’ “caught up" (1 Thessalonians 4:17), removed from the world before the time of God's wrath, as indicated in 1 Thessalonians 5:9: "For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ." This is confirmed by Jesus in John 3:16-17 as Jesus did not come into the world to condemn it but to save it!
These examples from Genesis and the New Testament demonstrate a consistent pattern: God's intervention to remove those marked for preservation before judgment fell. The Rapture, mirroring this pattern, is not merely an escape from tribulation, but a transition to a future purpose. The preserved, like Noah's family, will have a part to play in the unfolding of God's plan. The Rapture, therefore, is not an end in itself, but a prelude to the next phase of God's sovereign work in the world. As the door of the Ark shut, so too will the door of the Rapture close, ushering in a new chapter of divine purpose...specifically an age like what happened to Paul (Saul) the Apostle on the road traveling toward Damascus in Acts 9:3-8, where a Voice from Heaven asks, "Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?". Jesus wrath falls down and blinds him to bring him to repentance. This as well is the timeframe of the tribulations where God sends prophets (Revelation 11:3-12), angels proclaiming (Revelation 14:6-7), and 144,000 evangelist witnesses out of Israel (Revelation 7:4-8), and more to reap a harvest of many saved through the hardships who otherwise would have still been rejecting.
In conclusion, the escalating violence in our world is a somber sign of the times, a reflection of the darkness that precedes the return of Christ. However, even in the face of this grim reality, we are given a message of hope and grace. The stories of Noah, Lot, and Rahab remind us that God's mercy extends to those who trust in Him. The promise of the Rapture is not just an escape from suffering, but the ultimate expression of God's love and protection. It is a call to remain vigilant, to hold fast to our faith, and to live each day with the unwavering hope of eternal life. As the Apostle Paul reminds us, "Therefore comfort one another with these words" (1 Thessalonians 4:18). The prophetic narrative surrounding the Rapture, a pre-Tribulation event, presents not only a promise of rescue but also a stark warning. While the hope of being "caught up" (1 Thessalonians 4:17) to meet the Lord in the air is a source of great comfort, the scriptures reveal a chilling reality: the number of true believers will dwindle to a critical minimum. The very nature of the times leading up to the Rapture suggests a spiritual barrenness, a landscape where faith is scarce and the rejection of God and His Spirit is rampant. This means by default that very few will be present to be Raptured. John 3:36 states, "He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him."
