Mark 8:36 For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul?

The first 1/2 of the Tribulation will be tough.

The second half, the Great Tribulation will make Nazi Germany pale in comparison. Pretty scary stuff.

Mark 13:12 King James Version (KJV)

12 Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death.

So where are they going to go and how are they going to manage without the peons doing all their dirty work for them?

I’d hazard a guess that those with any real survival skills are not the rich.

For them, the future of technology is really about just one thing: escape.

Not escape.

Control.

Abandoned missile silos. Rebuilt for lots of money.

Pretty cool. I can’t afford one.

I believe something like that is already happening covertly through things like Facebook.

Revelation 6:12-17 When he opened the sixth seal, I looked, and behold, there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth, the full moon became like blood, and the stars of the sky fell to the earth as the fig tree sheds its winter fruit when shaken by a gale. The sky vanished like a scroll that is being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place. Then the kings of the earth and the great ones and the generals and the rich and the powerful, and everyone, slave and free, hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains, calling to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who is seated on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb, for the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?”

Yes, and despite that verse there are still some who think post-trib. Completely impossible.

Good notation that it’s the rich and the powerful noted in there, also.
