This document contains information about an upcoming sermon series on the end times beginning tonight at 8PM on the History Channel. It includes several Bible passages about the rapture and second coming of Christ. The series by Pastor Todd Foster will focus on the signs of the end times based on the work of prophecy scholar Mark Hitchcock, including the regathering of Jews in Israel, a surge in apostasy, efforts for peace in the Middle East, a reunited Roman Empire, and a move toward globalism. It encourages believers not to miss understanding these important biblical truths.

come down from heaven with a
commanding shout, with the call of the
archangel, and with the trumpet call of God.
First, all the Christians who have died will
rise from their graves. 17 Then, together
with them, we who are still alive and remain
on the earth will be caught up in the clouds
to meet the Lord in the air and remain with
him forever. 18 So comfort and encourage
each other with these words. NLT

11. John 14:1-3
"Let not your heart be troubled; you
believe in God, believe also in Me. 2 In
My Father's house are many mansions; if
it were not so, I would have told you. I go
to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go
and prepare a place for you, I will come
again and receive you to Myself; that
where I am, there you may be also.

12. 1 Cor 15:50-57 Now this I say, brethren,
that flesh and blood cannot inherit the
kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit
incorruption. 51 Behold, I tell you a
mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall
all be changed — 52 in a moment, in the
twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For
the trumpet will sound, and the dead will
be raised incorruptible, and we shall be
changed. 53 For this corruptible must put on
incorruption, and this mortal must put on…

13. …immortality. 54 So when this corruptible
has put on incorruption, and this mortal has
put on immortality, then shall be brought to
pass the saying that is written: "Death is
swallowed up in victory." 55 "O Death,
where is your sting? O Hades, where is your
victory?" 56 The sting of death is sin, and
the strength of sin is the law. 57 But thanks
be to God, who gives us the victory through
our Lord Jesus Christ.

14. 1 Thess 4:16-18 For the Lord himself will
come down from heaven with a
commanding shout, with the call of the
archangel, and with the trumpet call of God.
First, all the Christians who have died will
rise from their graves. 17 Then, together
with them, we who are still alive and
remain on the earth will be caught up in the
clouds to meet the Lord in the air and
remain with him forever. 18 So comfort and
encourage each other with these words.

15. 2 Cor 5:8
We are confident, yes, well pleased rather
to be absent from the body and to be
present with the Lord.

16. 2 Cor 5:2-4
For indeed in this house we groan, longing
to be clothed with our dwelling from
heaven, 3 inasmuch as we, having put it on,
will not be found naked. 4 For indeed while
we are in this tent, we groan, being
burdened, because we do not want to be
unclothed but to be clothed, so that what is
mortal will be swallowed up by life.

17. Gravestone of Mr. Solomon Peas
Here lies the body of Solomon Peas
Under the grass and under the trees
But Peas is not here, only the pod
Peas shelled out and went to God

18. Dan 12:1-4
"At that time Michael, the archangel who
stands guard over your nation, will arise.
Then there will be a time of anguish greater
than any since nations first came into
existence. But at that time every one of
your people whose name is written in the
book will be rescued. 2 Many of those
whose bodies lie dead and buried will rise
up, some to everlasting life and some to
shame and everlasting contempt. 3 Those…

19. …who are wise will shine as bright as the
sky, and those who turn many to
righteousness will shine like stars forever.

20. Matt 24:21
For that will be a time of greater horror
than anything the world has ever seen or
will ever see again.

21. Gen 5:24
Enoch walked with God; then he was no
more, because God took him away.

22. 2 Kings 2:1,11
2:1 When the LORD was about to take Elijah
up to heaven in a whirlwind, Elijah and
Elisha were on their way from Gilgal. 2
Elijah said to Elisha, "Stay here; the LORD
has sent me to Bethel." 11 As they were
walking along and talking together,
suddenly a chariot of fire and horses of fire
appeared and separated the two of them,
and Elijah went up to heaven in a
whirlwind.

23. I will not Die an Unlived Life
by Dawna Markova
I will not die an unlived life
I will not live in fear
of falling or catching fire

24. I choose to inhabit my days,
to allow my living to open me
to make me less afraid
more accessible
to loosen my heart
until it becomes a wing,
a torch, a promise

25. I choose to risk my significance;
to live
so that which came to me as seed
goes to the next as blossom,
and that which came
to me as blossom,
goes out as fruit.

26. The Voice of Truth
Songwriters: Hall, Mark; Casting Crowns
Oh what I would do to have
The kind of faith it takes
To climb out of this boat I'm in
On to the crashing waves
To step out of my comfort zone
Into the realm of the unknown
Where Jesus is
And He's holding out His hand

27. The Voice of Truth
Songwriters: Hall, Mark; Casting Crowns
But the waves are calling out my name
And they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed
The waves they keep on telling me
Time and time again
"Boy, you'll never win!
You'll never win!"

28. The Voice of Truth
Songwriters: Hall, Mark; Casting Crowns
But the voice of truth
tells me a different story
The voice of truth says, "Do not be afraid!"
And the voice of truth says,
"This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I would choose to listen and believe the
voice of truth.
