WHAT INEVITABLE EVENT COULD “PREPPERS” BE PREPARING FOR?
- WORRYING (in a typical sense): Matthew 6:34 Tells us we should NOT worry about the future. Matthew 6:27 reminds us that worrying cannot add a single hour to our lives. Luke 12:22 1 Peter 5:7 Psalm 55:22 Luke 12:11 Luke 21:14 Matthew 10:28
- PREPARING: How can we prepare for the future?—By accepting Jesus and placing our faith in God. Christians MUST live by faith; Romans 1:17 2 Corinthians 5:7 2 Corinthians 13:5 Romans 14:23 Hebrews 11:6
- IS IT POSSIBLE TO ESCAPE THE WRATH OF GOD? (NO) Could the following Scripture be referring to “Preppers”? In an effort to escape the wrath of God, men will hide in caves and holes in the ground. (2) (3) (4) (5) (6)
- HOW TO BE TRULY “SAVED” Many Preppers believe they are preparing for (and will possibly survive) the end of the world—-i.e. doomsday, the end of civilization, an apocalypse or Armageddon. Are they really sensing—(as most of us are) the world is indeed living in its last days? Prepping could be considered a visible evidence of this fact.
- Are Preppers actually preparing for the Great Tribulation? Only those who have been “born again” will escape this most dreadful time.
The cost of our Salvation has been paid IN FULL by the Blood Jesus shed for us on the Cross.
Being ‘prepared’ for the future is only gained through Jesus Christ.
