A Thief in the Night
By: Child of Dreams
Disclaimer: I do not own the Holy Bible, nor, unfortunately, do I own the Left Behind: The Kids series which introduced me to the existence of "The Rapture".
I am merely borrowing the use of God's prophetic playground temporarily in order to bring you this story.
I hope that this time it serves its intended purpose and I won't have to rewrite it a third time.
Prologue: In The Twinkling Of An Eye
They said that this would happen.
That one day soon, in the twinkling of an eye, the trumpet would sound and Christians all over the world, along with every child who had not yet reached the age of accountability, would be called up to meet Jesus in the air before spending the next seven years with Him in Heaven while those remaining on Earth, having waited too long to accept Christ's gift of salvation, would have to endure the horrors of the Tribulation.
But we didn't listen.
We ignored their desperate pleas, scoffed at their urgent warnings and labeled them as freaks, Christian do-gooders and religious nuts who believe in an unreachable, unknowable, invisible sky-fairy and are in desperate need of a reality check!
But we were wrong, and now... now it's too late.
The Son has come and we've been left behind.
