At least according to the good folks at Rapture Ready
quote: Christians who love the prophetic Word of God are like treasure hunters digging in a muddy field. Their task appears unpleasant and fruitless up until the moment they strike gold.
Mockers are like gold because they are key indicators of the end times. As the scorn grows more intense, it has the general effect of giving strong indication that we are getting closer to the rapture. There is little chance that our critics will ever realize the consequences of their actions. I#8217;ve always said end-time mockery is the mother's milk of prophetic progression.
#8220;Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation#8221; (2 Peter 3:3-4).
On judgment day, everyone standing before the judgment seat of Christ will be thinking of everything positive they did in their life. The act of enduring ridicule for the sake of Christ will be a huge bonus on that fateful day.
If you attempt to provide others with the truth and they rebuff your offer, the responsibility for their fate rests with them. Rapture Ready's critics are in a no-win situation. Their mockery is helping bring on the end times. Their scorn is a testimony to their guilt.
Boy, talk about being out of touch with reality:
quote: Many doomsday UFO cults believe aliens are coming to take them away to another planet. They desire to depart to escape a terrible fate that they fear will soon befall the earth. Most people just laugh them off as being a bunch of nuts, and would never dream of writing them.
What makes RR different is the innate realization that the prophetic message we promote is factual and will someday happen.
The spirit of God convicts people about their spiritual condition, and the vast majority refuses to listen to His small, gentle voice of beckoning. The content on RR strikes a nerve.
What he doesn't seem to realize is that the ufo nuts don't have the social and political power that the fundies have to impose their views on other people!
If they started teaching UFO-logy and abduction stories in science classes like the fundies are trying to teach yecism, you can bet that the skeptics would fight against them too!

Now i'm not a geologist, but how much gold does one expect to find in a muddy field? Or am i carrying the analogy to far? |

Talk about poetic justice. The sad part of it is that they do not realize the irony. |
