Sometime during the day of Pentecost, in the year 2024, a great shout is heard from the clouds. A worldwide shout. Suddenly, millions, if not billions of people are gone, vanished. An office worker looks into an adjacent cubicle, to ask his coworker what that was, and finds that the coworker is not there. He was there just a second ago. A guy riding in the backseat of an Uber, driver vanishes, nothing remains on the front seat but the driver's copy of the King James Bible. Luckily, the fare is able to climb in the front seat and steer the car to safety. And so on.
For the rest of the day, panic and mass hysteria set in. People flood the internet trying to find out what happened. Speculation begins. People begin to ask, "was that the rapture?" Other people answer by saying "it can't be the rapture because all the roman catholics are still here." (if you think Trump is several moves ahead in the chess game, wait until you see where satan is at.) The pope makes a special announcement from the vatican and guess what it is; It was aliens and we have made contact with them.
(All the recent news about aliens making sense now?)
Many are not deceived and start speaking out "my bruh was all about Jesus Christ, he never worshipped any idols, only confessed his sins to Christ and now he's gone, without a trace." But people do not hear or believe this witness, the Holy Spirit was taken out of the world with the Body of Christ, and now the antiChrist is no longer restrained (2 Thessalonians 2:7.) Great lying signs and wonders are now in play (2 Thessalonians 2:9.) An alien arrives, from the sky, right on cue, to "save the world." He proclaims that "those people that were taken away were evil and now the world is a much better place" (Daniel 11:21.) "You can abort whatever you want, including your bitchy parents. Does your racist neighbor have more stuff than you? Then we'll kill him and you can have it all." Covenants are made with the antiChrist and all the deceived will worship his image and take the mark of the beast.

No rapture as this states. Without the holy spirit there is no truth, no conviction of sin, righteousness, or judgment.
But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come.
Why does Satan need to preside over a kingdom of unbelievers? He is coming to fool Christians. Remember the 10 virgins. They were all virgins...5 wise and 5 foolish.
Yes supernatural beings will appear on this earth, but Christians will be here
But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth.
Acts 2:4 KJV And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
He is already here, to gather the Body of Christ and to restrain the son of perdition.
Acts 2:16 KJV But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; Joel 2:28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:
Already come to pass.
Why does Satan need to preside over a kingdom of unbelievers?
Isaiah 1:15 KJV And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood. 19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land: 20 But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
It will be a time of choice for the unbelievers. They will put aside atheism and false religions and call on the One True and Holy God, or they will placed in the smoking section.
Remember the 10 virgins
And the cry went out at midnight. And the Bridegroom cometh, for His Bride. The foolish ones were, um, left behind.
I agree with your scriptures but not in the context.
If the spirit of truth is taken out of the earth as you said, then those left behind have no chance of salvation.
The spirit of God confirmed Jesus. The Spirit of God empowers. The spirit of God convinces.
Without God's spirit in the earth, it would be hell..a place of death.
Do you think that without christ that anyone on earth would have any chance of overcoming this spirit of delusion? They would not. Whatever truth they had heard would be snatched away.
Satan shows up in the TEMPLE of God How can Satan show up in a temple that is not here?
3Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
16Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? 17If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
The bridegroom gathers his true bride and the door is shut after the tribulation of Satan.
Then comes the thousand years of teaching.
The days of tribulation are like the days of Noah. The wicked were taken and the righteous safe and protected in the ark of God which is pitched with redemption. Like the light of Goshen, God's children have THE LIGHT in their dwellings.
Sounds feasible and Biblical! I can't believe how many people never talk about or discuss Matthew 24! GOD himself walking this earth and sacrificing HIMSELF for our sins and then nobody ever brings up Matthew 24, but will always get into the Thessalonian's argument about we're not to suffer GOD's Wrath, etc. Even Paul states don't be fooled you won't even see any of this until the man of perdition is revealed. Back to Matthew 24: "The Coming of the Son of Man
29 “Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 30 Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His [d]elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
Matthew 24 as spoken to the nation of Israel. Not to the church, it is tribulation scripture. The key verses are
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Noah, and his seed, were righteous in all ways.
They were rescued from the flood.
The rest of humanity partied on until the flood came.
This passage is a type of the pre tribulation rapture.
Believers in Christ are righteous in the blood of Christ.
They will be taken up into Heaven before the wrath begins (not appointed to wrath.)
The wrath will then commence.
