Escape the Tribulation: Jesus Wants You to Accept Salvation

By Beth Hill

Do you search for a purpose in life, hunger for something that you can’t even put a name to, feel let down by others, feel hopeless, fearful, that there isn’t anything that is worth believing in, and the current state of the world terrifies you? STOP!

The reason you feel incomplete is that you are separated from God. You can find solace, hope, serenity, comfort, goodness, contentment, happiness and an always available source (Jesus) to go to with every problem that you are confronted with.

The world is in a mess, but if you’re a Christian you accept that God is in complete control (not the world leaders) and you put your complete trust in Him—if you want to be content in this world. Otherwise, you will be in a constant state of fear, uncertainty and bitterness.

You were created to have a relationship with God. God yearns to have a close personal relationship with you. In order for this to happen, you must first commit your life to Jesus by accepting him as your Savior. No intermediary person is necessary to talk to Jesus. When you are saved, you have access to God 24/7. You only have to start the conversation.

I have listed some websites at the end of this article and evangelists to help you in your journey websites and evangelists to help you sort out the Bible and begin a relationship with God. [1]

A word of caution; before embracing a pastor’s message, compare his message against what the Bible says. You must be wary of pastors who try to interpret the Bible so it will be palatable to people who are offended by the Bible.

Evangelical Christians believe the Church will be taken into heaven in the Rapture (Rev. 4:1) before the Tribulation. And Jesus wants you to be one of those who escapes the wrath to come (the Tribulation and Great Tribulation which  will each last 3 1/2 years).  

In order to escape the wrath to come, you must repent of your sins and ask Jesus to come into your heart. You have to acknowledge that Jesus died for your sins so that you may have eternal salvation. The intent of your heart is paramount.  If you are not sincere, God will know it. He is omnipotent and all knowing. 

Ask Jesus to come into your life so that you can live for Him. When you sincerely ask Him into your life you will be indwelt with Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is sent from Jesus to be our Helper, Comforter and Guide. He resides with us forever. As a Christian, you are never alone. It is only faith in Jesus’ death and resurrection that can save us. 

Following is a prayer of salvation:

Jesus, I know I am a sinner. I’ve fallen short of Your glory many times. Jesus, I know you died on the cross for my sins. I invite You to come into my heart, take over my life and show me Your will for my life. I promise that from this day forward, I will strive to live for You and follow Your plan for my life.  Fill me with Your Holy Spirit and help me to do Your will. Amen.

 After accepting Jesus as your Savior, you need to start studying the Bible. I urge you to read the New Testament first.  Revelation (the last book in the Bible) gives the most specific unfulfilled prophecies concerning the Tribulation.

Of course there are also prophecies concerning the Tribulation in the Old Testament. These prophecies are very disturbing and frightening. However, God has provided a way for the believer to escape the Tribulation. Repent of your sins and ask Jesus to come into your heart.

As a believer, you must accept the Bible in its entirety through FAITH. You cannot pick and choose what you want to believe from the Bible. God does not lie or exaggerate. God is omnipotent, all-knowing and supernatural. And He is a Righteous God.

Nations that disobey God can expect harsh judgment; especially those that do not support Israel and try to circumvent God’s will for Israel. Israel is the apple of God’s eye.

“I will make you into a great nation and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you” (Genesis 12:2-3). 

(Also see Genesis 27:29; Numbers 24:9).

If you’ve never heard of the Rapture or Tribulation prophecies before reading this article, I urge you to read the New Testament first, then the Old Testament. If you find it hard to understand the Bible, pray to the Holy Spirit to give you understanding.

Many Christians believe the return of Jesus  is imminent (the Rapture, not the Second Coming); that we are living in the  last days. Our country is unraveling and in serious trouble as is every country on our planet. 

The only way you will be left behind in the Rapture is if you have not sincerely received Christ as your Savior. I beg you to ask Jesus to come into your life without delay.

May God bless you.

Always remember, my dear friends, our country has been blessed by God because we were a righteous people who believed in and promoted the Bible as a way of life. Our government was formed by men who believed in the Bible. And most important, we supported Israel. Our country has been protected by God from many evils because we were a Christian country and supported Israel.

Our current administration does not support Israel nor the Bible. America is in a state of decline, anarchy, turmoil and our military power has dwindled. I believe we are under judgment from God.  If we do not return to the literal Bible and support Israel, these judgments will only worsen.
