DO YOU KNOW THAT FIVE HUNDRED OF OUR PLANET’S CULTURES HAVE A WORLDWIDE-FLOOD LEGEND SIMILAR TO THAT OF NOAH AND HIS ARK? Of course a deluge that covered the entire earth would have people talking about it, so even secular history shows about five hundred cultures around the world that have a flood account in their history. Here’s an example: "Toltec Indians of ancient Mexico [say] the first world...lasted 1,716 years and was destroyed by a great flood that covered even the highest mountains. The Creator told a pious man, ‘Tapi,’ to build a boat that he would live in and escape the destruction. He was told that he should take his wife and a pair of every animal that was alive. Naturally everyone thought he was crazy. Then the rain started and the flood came." Sound familiar? And today, we Christians go through that same sort of frustration this Tapi guy faced, as we warn people to get into the ark of Jesus because they face death at any moment, which will then make it too late for them, resulting in an eternity in hell. And there’s an event coming at any moment that will be nothing like they have ever seen: the Rapture of the Christian Church off this world won't be Jesus arriving on earth; instead, it will be when Christians go up to the sky to meet Jesus. But rather than taking God’s Word for it, people react to us informing them of this by saying something like, "Okay, you're a wacko." Well, they are free to think whatever they’d like, but two thousand other highly specific prophecies from God have already come true, so hopefully those scoffers will change their thinking before one day when they see that we Christians have suddenly left.
