The newest Left Behindevangelism opportunity!By Dr. Jack Van ImpeIn one shattering moment, millionsdisappear around the world.Who isleft on earth and what new horrorsawait them? It’s a time of war, plagues,famine, and natural disasters.Yet some can see the Antichrist forwhat he is — and fight back!It is one of the greatest publishingphenomena of all time: the Left Behindbook series which has taken the worldby storm (over 50 million copies inprint). It has captivated the attention ofeven the most cynical of skeptics with its solidly Biblebasedprophetic story line.And when the first LeftBehind book was produced as a feature film, it made ahuge impact in theaters across North America andaround the world. There was also in a record-smashingvideo-DVD distribution — a major component ofwhich occurred through our ministry! (Left Behind:The Movie was actually the best-selling video inAmerica in the 2000-01 season — over three millioncopies — eclipsing Toy Story 2, The Green Mile, andErin Brockovich.)Now comes the sequel to that blockbuster movie:Left Behind II:TRIBULATION FORCE! produced byour friends Peter and Paul Lalonde of Cloud TenPictures. Returning to the cast are Hollywood starsKirk Cameron (Growing Pains), Brad Johnson (Soldierof Fortune), Chelsea Noble (Growing Pains,wife ofKirk Cameron), Clarence Gilyard (Walker, TexasRanger), Gordon Currie (Waydowntown), and JanayaStephens (Inside the Osmonds).The screenplay hasbeen written by Academy Award winner Pam WallaceContinued on Page 4Jack Van Impe Ministries September/October 2002Jack Van Impe 3

(well known for her work on the hitmovie Witness with Harrison Ford).Left Behind II:TRIBULATION FORCEalso features a breathtaking musicalscore!Like the original film, TribulationForce is based squarely on theprophetic truths of the book ofRevelation. Left Behind I depictedthe Rapture — Left Behind II picksI believe withouthesitation thattens of thousandswill come to faithin Jesus Christthrough theunique witness ofthis extraordinaryfilm. Itsmessage isclear: TrustChrist now,spend eternitywith Him —and escapethe GreatTribulation!up a week later, following the intertwininglives of four left behind individuals:airline pilot Rayford Steele(Johnson), his 20-year-old daughter,Chloe (Stephens), Pastor BruceBarnes (Gilyard), and star journalistBuck Williams (Cameron).They bandtogether to form the “TribulationForce” and thwart the rise of the suspectedAntichrist — United NationsPresident Nicolae Carpathia (Currie).Left Behind II:Tribulation Forceopens to find the millions of peoplewho disappeared into thin air stillmissing. Chaos wracks the world;there’s panic and grief as desperate“survivors” search hopelessly for lostloved ones. Catastrophes reign.Theworld in desperation turns to UnitedNations president Carpathia for leadershipand guidance! He seems to bethe only person who can offer anyanswers, or hope ... the only one withany realistic plans to restore peaceand order.What Carpathia doesn’t know —even with the world’s adoration andtrust — is that the four rebels arespreading the truth about him: thathe’s the prophesied Antichrist of theBible! Pastor Barnes’ in-depth understandingof biblical prophecy helpsthe small “Tribulation Force” tounderstand their situation — as wellas the events to come in the nextseven years.TV journalist Williamshas witnessed Carpathia’s deadlypowers firsthand — and his positiongives him access to a global audience.Pilot Steele is still struggling tocome to grips with the loss of hiswife and son, but he has come toChrist now, because of the greatrevival mentioned in Rev. 7:1-14. Healso has a growing friendship withthe pastor, and he is closer to hisfeisty daughter, Chloe. Chloe, meanwhile,tends the sick and wounded— as she falls more deeply in lovewith Buck.Then, suddenly, word leaks outabout three men mysteriously burningto death at one of Israel’s holiestsites: the Wailing Wall.As leading religiousscholar Rabbi Ben Judah preparesto make a “world-alteringannouncement based on years ofresearch,” Pastor Barnes recognizeshow both events are linked toCarpathia, signaling the oncomingterror of the Tribulation — and quicklymobilizes Ray and Buck for a dangerousmission to infiltrateCarpathia’s organization and get toBen Judah before he makes hisannouncement.Will the Tribulation Force prevail?Or will Carpathia continue todeceive an unsuspecting world?Only the final moments of LeftBehind II: TRIBULATION FORCEreveal the answer.This will prove to be one of themost astonishing films ever produced!Production supervisor Andrévan Heerden is overseeing a stunningarray of special effects, including firebreathingwitnesses and computergeneratedcrowds of thousands aswell as major world landmarks suchas the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.There’s also “a climactic motion controlshot,” he says,“that can only bedescribed as a Matrix-style scene.

Left Behind fans are in for a great show.”Even more important than the topflightentertainment quality ofTribulation Force is its inspired message.I believe without hesitation thattens of thousands will come to faith inJesus Christ through the unique witnessof this extraordinary film. Its message isclear:Trust Christ now, spend eternitywith Him — and escape the GreatTribulation!We have made arrangements forpartners of Jack Van Impe Ministries toreceive advance copies of the newmovie as they support the ministry thismonth.This means that you and yourfamily, your friends and loved ones, canexperience the power of Left BehindII:TRIBULATION FORCE ... ahead ofothers!The timing of the release of this filmis critical. In this generation we arewitnessing the fulfillment of end-timeprophecies at an astounding pace.At thesame time, we can also clearly observe ahunger for the things of God unparalleledin our lifetime! People are desperatefor answers about the future, abouttheir eternal destiny, about the so-called“end of the world.” No wonder the LeftBehind series has touched such a nerve.Indeed, we have never before seen aChristian film or book featured onTime magazine’s cover — yet there itwas:“The Bible and the Apocalypse,”the headline announced, identifyingthe amazing popularity of the LeftBehind series.These books are being received“not as novels but as tomorrow’snewspapers,” Charisma News Servicesays.A Time/CNN poll found more thanonethirdof allAmericans arenow paying moreattention to end-timeconnections in the news —and talking about the biblicalperspective on all of theseissues!The implications for us, asGod’s people, are clear: We mustreach out to the lost now, whilethey are at their hungriest, andwhile there is still time on God’sprophetic calendar. Just as Jesus saidin John 9:4 — “I must work the worksof him that sent me, while it is day: thenight cometh, when no man can work”— so we must work the works of Godwhile it’s still day ... because it will soonbe too late! Jesus also said,“When youshall see all these things, know that it isnear, even at the door” Matthew 24:33.Rexella and I thank God for thehunger that people are exhibiting forthe deepest questions of the humanspirit.We also thank God for divinelyordaining our ministry to be in a position— with a global television network,video, books, the Internet, and other outreaches!You have probably read the book —millions have — so you already knowthat Left Behind II:TRIBULATIONFORCE is one of the most dynamic,inspiring, and breathtaking stories evertold. Please do not miss this tremendousopportunity — you can own this film,share it with others, and allow the Lordto work through you, to lead the lost toChrist as you share Left Behind II:Tribulation Force!

YOUNG PALESTINIANS WILD FOR‘MARTYR’ NECKLACESThe Toronto Star reports:“Fourteen-year-old SalehAttiti has replaced his once-precious Pokémon cardswith a less innocent craze that has swept up childrenin this violence-torn camp. On a plastic coffeetable in his cinder-block home, Saleh proudlydisplays part of his growing collection of necklaceswith pictures of ‘martyrs’ of the Palestinian uprisingagainst Israeli occupation.‘I used to have plenty of Pokémons — my schoolbag was half full of them,’ Saleh said.‘I threw themall away.They’re not important now.The pictures ofmartyrs are important.They’re our idols.’ It’s difficultto find a child in this teeming camp of 20,000people who isn’t wearing at least one necklace witha picture of a shahid, or ‘martyr’ — mostly militantgunmen killed or suicide bombers blown up duringthe 20-month-old uprising.The children use them the way they once usedcards of Pokémon or sports heroes.They spend theirmeager allowances to collect and trade them, constantlyhunting for prized shahid pictures that excitelike a vintage baseball card. For Palestinian teachers,the craze in ‘martyr’ necklaces is the latest exampleof children poised to become the next generationof fighters against Israeli occupation. Growing upin a culture of violence fuelled by both sides in theconflict, Palestinianchildren are adoptingthe uprising'smilitia fighters asrole models.‘These childrenare convinced thatmartyrdom is a holything, somethingworthy of the ultimaterespect,’ saidMunir Jabal, head ofa Balata teachersassociation.‘Theyworship thesepictures.

By Rexella Van ImpeOne beautiful sunny daynot long ago, my husband,Jack, said,“Rexella,let’s go out and work in thegarden today.”Of course, I agreed.Withthe responsibility of preparingfor our weekly televisionprogram and being involvedin the ongoing administrationof a major internationalministry, getting outdoorsand working in the soil withmy hands is always refreshingto my spirit.And so wewent out together.For many years our travelschedule for church andcitywide crusades (fortyweeks annually) made itimpossible for Jack and meto do much work aroundthe house or to take care ofthe yard. It seemed like wewere barely home longenough to do the laundryand dry cleaning and then itwas time to get packed andgo again.So in recent years sinceour television schedule hasrequired us to remain closerto home, we’ve thoroughlyenjoyed getting to do someof the domestic chores ourselves.Even though Jackaverages fifty hours everyweek reading scores ofnewspapers, magazines, andbooks to stay current onworld events and propheticdevelopments, he loves to“take a break” now and thento do a little trimming onthe bushes and hedges inour yard.My husband has alwayskept the garage tidy andclean. If we take our bikesout for a ride through theneighborhood, he alwayswipes them down beforeputting them away.And afriend who came by for avisit one day said,“I can’tbelieve it! Your garage flooris clean enough to eat offof!” (He would really havebeen surprised to see Jackdown on his hands andknees mopping the kitchenfloor!)But on this particularspring day, Jack had beenstudying especially hardgetting ready for a newvideo project, in additionto the preparations for ourregular telecast taping. Sohe was really anxious forsome outdoor therapy,working with the azaleasin his flower garden.We had such a goodtime.We talked. Jack madejokes.We laughed.We didsome trimming.And I madea mess! In cleaning out aflowerbed, I managed to getdirt all over thesidewalk.Therewas way toomuch to sweepup so I decidedto get the gardenhose and rinseaway the mess.At first, thestream of waterfrom the hoseseemed to bedoing a reallygood job.Thewater flushedthe dirt anddebris along thesidewalk and outto the streetwhere we wouldeventually pick itup together.Thetask seemed tobe going quickly.Then Ilooked backwhere I’d justbeen and said,“Whoa, thisisn’t going to work.” Lo andbehold, lots more dirt hadsomehow gone around thespray nozzle’s pattern andended up back on thesidewalk behind me!

Once we havebeen forgivenof our past,we too canforget it andmove on.dozen times until I got itright. I was amazed at howmuch patience and effort Iended up spending onwhat seemed like such asimple task.Applying the “backingup and going ahead”principle to your lifeWhen Jack suggestedthat we go out and workin the garden, I had beenpraying for days forinspiration to write anarticle that would blessthe friends who read ourmagazine, Perhaps Today.I also hoped it could beused as a chapter in mynew book that is almostready to be published.As I stood there thatafternoon,I wassomehowremindedof how weneed touse the“backingup andgoingahead”principlein ourJack Van Impe Ministries September/October 2002Rexella Van Impe 20Christianwalk.Weneed toallow theHoly Spiritto revealto us somethings inour livesthatperhapswe’veswept intoa corneror tried tocover up.When welook back at what we thoughtwas “clean,” we may see thetelltale signs of some dirtfrom the past that was nevercleansed by the blood of Christ.Only when we’ve backedup to deal with temper — onlywhen we’ve backed up to rootout hard feelings against others—onlywhen we’ve backedup to uncover some of the hiddenthings of the heart andallowed the Holy Spirit tosanctify and cleanse it withthe washing of water by theWord (Ephesians 5:26) are weready to go forward and be thekind of vessel that God wantsand can truly use.The apostle Paul went onto say that the Lord wanted tomake us clean, that he mightpresent it to himself a gloriouschurch, not having spot, orwrinkle, or any such thing; butthat it should be holy and withoutblemish (Ephesians 5:27).“Lord, forgive me …I want to be apowerhouse for You!”Well, as the lesson began tosink into my spirit that day, Irealized that God was speakingto me — and perhaps throughme to others.The first aspectof the lesson was the recognitionthat we need to becleansed of the past and goforward.I saw how the watercould cleanse the sidewalk if Iwould just keep backing upand going ahead with theprocess. It reminded me how,in my own prayer life, the HolySpirit had often called myattention to things, perhaps,that I had long forgotten.Things that were still notpleasing to Him.Daniel 2:22 says, Herevealeth the deep and secretthings: he knoweth what is inthe darkness, and the lightdwelleth with him.So, my prayer today is,“Lord, forgive me of thingsthat perhaps I never truly confessed.ThingsI may have evenforgotten. Shine Your light intothe darkest recesses of my souland root out ‘the deep andsecret things.’ I want to be thecleanest vessel possible.Andonly when I back up and allowthe Holy Spirit to go ahead anddo His work to get rid of thehidden things in my life can Ibe a powerhouse for the Lord.How about you? Are theresome dark and secret thingsin your past that need to beconfessed, forgiven, andwashed away once and for allbefore you can really go forwardall the way? Remember,just as the water finallywashed my sidewalk clean, sothe Word of God can speakdeliverance and peace to yourheart and help you go forward.Let go of the pastand move forward!The second lesson we canlearn is that just as God forgivesand forgets (Hebrews10:17), once we have beenforgiven of our past, we toocan forget it and move on.While there can be value inbacking up until we have theconfidence that the “oldaccount is settled,” we cankeep going back so often thatit becomes worrisome. Somepeople can never go aheadbecause they are not able tolet the past go.If anyone ever had reasonto regret his past, it was theApostle Paul.As a Pharisee, hehad been a champion of smug,prideful, and unyielding religiosity.Whenthe early churchwas born, he became a zealot

of persecution and one of themost brutal men who everlived. He was personallyresponsible for the cruel murdersof Christians (See Actschapters 8 and 9).After his confrontationwith Christ in which a lightfrom heaven shown roundabout him, causing him to fallto the earth, he heard adivine voice which challengedhim to change his allegiance.Still, Paul struggledwith his past (I Timothy1:15).Again and again hecried out,“God, I’m sorry!God, I’m sorry.” Backing up,“God, I’m so sorry.” Backingup again,“Lord, I’m so sorry!”But there came a timewhen he said,“All right. Okay!I know I’ve been forgiven ofmy past. God has sanctifiedand cleansed me with thewashing of water by theWord.Therefore, this onething I do, forgetting thosethings which are behind,and reaching forth untothose things which arebefore, I press toward themark for the prize of thehigh calling of God in ChristJesus (Philippians 3:13,14).What was he saying? “Nomore backing up andwrestling with the past! I amgoing forward, pressingtoward the prize, respondingto the high calling of God inChrist Jesus!”I’m telling you my heartwas blessed as I stood outthere with my hose. First, Iacknowledged that we sometimesneed to go back andclean up the past. Oncewe’ve done that, we need tomove on to the second stepin which we make a decisionto follow in the footsteps ofPaul and refuse to keep beingtormented by the past.Moving up higher!Now, the third aspect ofthis lesson is—don’t forgetthat we’re never going tobe perfect (I John 1:8). Butwe always have the water ofthe Word to cleanse us andhelp us as we grow spiritually.IPeter 2:2 states, As newbornbabes, desire the sinceremilk of the word, thatye may grow thereby.Loving parents may feelthat they have the perfectbaby, but they don’t wantthat child to stay in the cradle!Their desire for him orher is that he become theperfect toddler…the perfectadolescent…the perfectteenager…the perfect youngadult! Along the way, therewill be many times whenthey require their child toback up and be correctedbefore going ahead.In much the same way,growing in grace doesn’t happenovernight. But as Godcontinues to sanctify andcleanse us with the washingof water by the Word, wecontinually grow in grace andknowledge.The Word revealsto us when and where we fallshort on a daily basis.And Heis always there to help ustake the next step on theroad to becoming what Hewants us to be and in achievingHis plan and His will forour lives.Perhaps there will betimes when we sit in oneplace too long … or recklesslyrun ahead. No doubt sometimeswe will realize that wehave been so self-centeredthat we were insensitive orfailed to reach out to others.It could well be that on thoseoccasions, we need to backup and ask the Spirit of Godto make thingsright again.There is abeautiful oldsong called“An EveningPrayer” thatmay expressthe deepestyearnings ofour souls inDon’tsuch times. Itcries out —If I havewoundedany soultoday,If I havecaused onefoot to goastray,If I havewalked inmy ownwillful way,Dear Lord, forgive.I’m told that Mrs. Fieldsof cookie fame has a sloganthat expresses her personaland corporate quest forexcellence. She says simply,“Good enough never is.”I think there are timeswhen all of us grow weary orimpatient with the growthpath of our lives. I knowthere have been times whenI’ve been tempted to look atmy progress (or lack of it)and say,“That’s good enough.”But when I got my eyes offmyself and back on the LordJesus Christ, who is our greatexample, I immediately realizedthat my “good enough”really wasn’t! Has this everhappened to you? Lately?Well, don’t be disheartenedor discouraged.ThankGod, there is hope and helpfor us.Once again, it is timefor us to back up so we cango ahead.forget thatwe’re nevergoing tobe perfect(I John 1:8).Jack Van Impe Ministries September/October 2002Rexella Van Impe 21

WORDS of WISDOMThis article is an excerpt from one chapter of Dr. Van Impe’s book, The Great Escape.For a more in-depth look at the Rapture, please order the book at www.jvim.com.The next event on God’sprophetic clock is the Rapture,a word that is derived fromthe Latin rapturo, meaning,“asnatching away.”The Rapture isthat dramatic moment when theLord Jesus Christ comes in cloudsof glory to remove from thisworld all who have died in Christalong with the living from theDay of Pentecost until Christcomes to “snatch” his childrenupward and home in the twinklingof an eye. (I Thessalonians4:16-18).This event will occur atbreakneck speed — in the“twinkling of an eye.”Those lefton earth will not know what hitthem.A business colleague willsuddenly be gone.A schoolteacherwill no longer standbefore his or her desk as thechalk falls to the floor.A doctorwill not show up for his rounds.There will be no nurses at manyhospitals to administer medicine,take pulses, or follow doctors’orders. Dirty dishes will be leftin the sink as a housewifedisappears from the view of herstunned family.The Rapture willprecipitate the greatest trafficjams in history as cars suddenlybecome driverless and pedestriansrun for cover. It will be thatBy Dr. Jack Van Impemoment in history when, withoutwarning, the Lord says,“Come uphither” (Revelation 4:1). It will bethe greatest escape in the historyof the world.There are criticssuch as Dave McPherson, authorof the unbelievable PretribulationOrigin, and John Bray who teachesthat the pretribulational viewpointonly began in 1830 and waspropagated by Edward Irving, J.N. Darby, and Margaret McDonald,a retarded girl. He and othershave offered $1,000 to any and allwho produce one documentedstatement concerning a pretribulationRapture before thenineteenth century. Should anyreader see such a challenge inthe future, present your claimsas listed below.St.Victorinus, the bishop ofPettau, wrote a commentary onthe Book of Revelation in A.D.270. He said he saw another greatand wonderful sign.“Seven angelshaving the last seven plagues,for in them is completed theindignation of God.And theseshall be in the last time whenthe church shall have gone outof the midst.” St.Victorinus wastalking about the Rapture.Here is more powerful documentationon a pretrib Rapture.Jack Van Impe Ministries September/October 2002Words of Wisdom 26

The early Christian writer andpoet Ephraem the Syrian (wholived from A.D. 306 to 373) was amajor theologian of the earlyByzantine Eastern Church.To thisday, his hymns and homilies areused in the liturgy of the GreekOrthodox and Middle EasternNestorian Churches. He alsowrote a large number of commentariesthat have never beentranslated into English.Concerning a pretrib Rapture hestated:“All the saints and Elect ofGod are gathered, prior to thetribulation that is to come, andare taken to the Lord lest theysee the confusion that is tooverwhelm the world becauseof our sins.”Thus, this teaching is not apresent-day innovation but adoctrinal statement dating backseventeen centuries to St.Victorinus, and twenty centuriesback to Jesus and Paul.However, there is more. Inthe sixteenth century therewere also those who expressedabsolute assurance of theRapture. Hugh Latimei burned atthe stake for his faith in 1555,said,“It may come in my days,old as I am, or in my children’sdays, the saints shall be takenup to meet Christ in the air andso shall come down with himagain.” Joseph Mede, the greatsixteenth-century literalist,understood 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 to teach the catching up ofthe saints and even used theword Rapture.This also was 250years before Irving, Darby, andMcDonald.While the Rapture is nottaught in Matthew, Mark, andWORDS of WISDOMLuke, you will find it mentionedtwice in the Gospel of John.Thisis important to remember:Anyother time you read aboutChrist’s return in the Gospels, itis not referring to the Rapture.Instead, these are references tothe second phase of Christ’sreturn, when He physicallycomes back to earth to rule overthe earth after a seven-yearTribulation period.Where are thetwo Rapture texts found in theGospel of John? John 14:1—3:“Let not your heart be troubled:ye believe in God, believe alsoin me. In my Father’s house aremany mansions: if it were notso, I would have told you. I go toprepare a place for you.And if Igo and prepare a place for you,I will come again, and receiveyou unto myself; that where Iam, there ye may be also.”This isnot His coming to the earth, but atime when Jesus receives us untoHimself at the great Rapture —the snatching away — to be withHim in heaven as the seven yearsof torment play out their unbridledfury on earth.The second reference to theRapture is in John 11:25-26. Imust confess that I quoted thispassage for years and did not reallyunderstand it. Christ said:“I amthe resurrection, and the life: hethat believeth in me, though hewere dead, yet shall he live:Andwhosoever liveth and believethin me shall never die. Believestthou this?”Jesus is contrastingthose who experience death andlive again (“the dead in Christshall rise first,” 1 Thessalonians4:16) with those who neverexperience death (because “wewhich are alive and remainare caught up without dying,”1 Thessalonians 4:17).The Rapture is not sciencefiction. It’s a coming reality.Thegood news for the person who isprepared is — when the Rapturecomes, believers will go home tobe with the Lord and evadeearth’s horrendous seven years ofTribulation.The believer in theLord Jesus Christ will, at long last,be the recipient of that blessedhope.There will be no moreJack Van Impe Ministries September/October 2002Words of Wisdom 27
