IT'S TIME

By Bruce Mann Jr.

What is written in these papers highlights the Holy Bible to give you an accurate understanding of where you are in the history of the world right now so that you can make an informed decision concerning your immediate and never-ending future. It is a warning to the saved (if indeed you are) to be steadfast in your faith in the Word of God. It is also a warning to the world to stop being deceived (allowing oneself to believe what is not true) and to always remember that everyone (who has the knowledge of good and evil) is without excuse before God regarding His existence and His will for mankind's salvation according to His Word of truth. Amen.

About the Author

My name is Bruce Mann Jr. I am writing these papers because I feel compelled to do so. Now compelled means to force someone to do something. I live alone. The driving force moving me to write this is where we are in the history of the Earth according to God's inerrant Word. Inerrant means incapable of being wrong. John 17:17 says, Your word is truth. A wonderful, incredible event is about to happen on Earth, which unfortunately the great majority of the world will not be a part of because it requires being born again of the Holy Spirit through faith in the Son of God, Jesus. The event is the Rapture, when all born-again believers are taken off the earth. And 1 Corinthians 15:52 says this will happen in the twinkling of an eye. It is written in 1 Thessalonians 4:17,

Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.

This is the Rapture. The New Testament was first written in Greek, and the word used for caught up is harpazo, which means to snatch away, to take to one's self. Rapturo is Latin for harpazo, with the same meaning. Rapture is an English term for Rapturo. So the word Rapture isn't and yet is in the Bible.

And now a quick testimony of the person writing to you. On September 28, 1986, I asked Jesus to please save my life and that I was sorry. He did! In that moment, I knew I was free from the drugs and alcohol that were destroying my life. Something happened inside of me which I couldn't explain at the time because I had no knowledge of the Holy Bible. I don't remember anyone telling me of the process of receiving salvation before that day. But I will tell you that what happened inside of me was real. It's Friday, July 7, 2023, and I am still free, and not only that, but with God as my witness, I have not gone through one day of trying not to drink or use drugs. How can I take any credit for this? For years, I tried to stop on my own and couldn't. I tried taking my life three times when I was only twenty-seven years old. I will end my testimony with this: I take full credit for one thing having to do with being free from not only drugs and alcohol but other addictive habits that come with that kind of life, like profanity. That one thing is, I asked Jesus to please save my life. That's it. Jesus said in John 8:36,

Therefore if the son makes you free, you shall, be free indeed.

And by experience, I have found this to be the truth, and not only this
