I take my 7 kids out street evangelizing in one of the poorer areas of town every Saturday (as much as possible). We hand out tracts and engage people with the Gospel as much as we can.

I was thinking about the bulletin boards that many businesses keep for customers to post event notices, business cards, and so on. Perhaps these can be utilized to post some great information about the prophetic season we are in. Here's a card set I created using a template in Microsoft Word that says it should work with Avery 5371 business card stock. Please note, I do not have any Avery business card stock to test it out on, so it may need some minor adjustments to fit just right. However, I found it pretty easy to cut them out with scissors or a cutting board! Please feel free to share them!

This was a great thread to start. I have some thoughts and ideas.
For starters, let's assume that the rapture goes down sometime this Fall. People will be frantic for information. Was it aliens? CERN? A black hole? Deceit will run rampant as Scripture tells us.
Almost all of the information on the rapture and Rev 12 Sign is online. And most of it is in English. I'm looking for gaps in coverage and here is what I see:
1. Printed materials on the sign. Whatif, Lu Vega, and Brad from Rev 12 Daily have some great stuff. Some of it explains the sign. Just having the information in physical form lying around could be very useful if people stumble upon it. We can't assume that what is online will remain up indefinitely.
2. Printed left behind letters. I have some. I've kept a stack in my briefcase for two years and have more at home.
3. Online foreign language material. There is a huge gap here as almost all of the info is in English. Unsealed has Google translation built in, but they are not the best translations. I've had professional help getting German and French translations of the Left Behind letter done, but the other languages are auto-generated. Brad and I are about to work on foreign language graphics of the Rev 12 Sign. Hopefully we can get these done over the next week or two.
4. Prayer, prayer, and more prayer. These are my suggested things to be praying for:
- Unity, purity, and evangelistic focus in the Church. - That the Church is awakened to the lateness of the hour. - Discernment and correct teaching from all of the ministries teaching and preaching that 2017 could be the year. This is so, so important. We don't want to lead anyone astray. Now is the time to figure out if we were misled rather than later. Pray also that God would reveal more wisdom and knowledge to all of us and for personal confirmations. Pray that we would steward that knowledge well and with humility. - Pray for family and friends you know are likely lost. Pray for their salvation and if they won't come to a saving knowledge of the truth now, pray that they would wake up after the rapture.

Personally, I've prayed and prayed about ways to share on Facebook and even with a neighbor who I have witnessed to on many occasions but have not shared the Rev 12 sign or my belief that the rapture is coming. It seems I can't come up with an idea to do it, so I feel like God is telling me no or not yet, and yet I sense this urgency with the eclipse on Monday. I've been posting some things about looking forward to the rapture on Facebook. Most things just fall flat, no response. What God does seem to pull me toward every time I pray, is to pray for revival, awakening, salvation and pouring out of His spirit on people, saved and unsaved alike. So I'm putting my faith in Him, that at least for me, my job is to pray. And with a toddler (and... now another on the way...) there's not a lot I can do to "get out there" to share. I think back to how I got "woken up" and pray that if God did that for me, He can and will do that for others too. Otherwise, we know people will be saved during the tribulation, so we can prepare and pray for that. Leave things around your house that people will find (because there will be looters and squatters) to explain where you have gone.
Last night, I wept and wept over my dog being left behind (don't make fun... I'm hormonal) and I thought, maybe I should ask my unsaved neighbor to come get our dog in case we're no longer here... that'd be one way to witness to your neighbor and maybe spare your pet for a little while. Unless your worried your pet may try to eat your neighbor at some point... (Rev 6:8)

We would never make fun of that, MissusMack08! I know the feeling, as do many others here! The Lord loves His creatures and He knows the love you have for them. I do believe He will provide in some way--whether that is to take them with us at the time of the rapture or to send angels to lead them to safety or bring other people to them to provide for them. I do like the idea of asking your neighbors to take care of pets should the rapture occur--and even in the event of natural disasters or family emergencies. You never know what can happen in life. It seems wise to ask your neighbors to check the animals if some unexpected event should occur, rapture or otherwise.

Someone on another thread suggested figuring out a way for your pets/animals to get out so that they can fend for themselves. I did ask my unsaved neighbor to get our dog if he is able, but I told him I'd rather he and his family believe in Jesus and not be here either.

watchman35 hello. I think what your doing is amazing and anything you do to further the Kingdom of Heaven YHWH smiles upon. One thing my wife and I do, we both carry little gift bags with us in our vehicles. They don't contain allot, a small KJV bible, a pair of winter gloves, a few snacks, a bottle of water and inside each bible we place a $10.00 donation next to John 3:16 which we highlight with a marker. We give these to anyone the Lord leads us to or anyone that looks in need. All we can do is plant seeds. YHWH will do the rest
God Bless~ 2Ti 2:15

I made a website with wix as someone suggested and a Facebook page, and am going to post about the Revelation 12 sign and more. I feel like there's not much time left, so is this worth it even though not many will see it or even read it, and how do I get lot's of people viewing a new site? Thanks.

God finally released me to bring up the sign topic personally on Facebook (as opposed to just posting articles and videos that it seemed nobody was watching or reading). I realized it wasn't because I couldn't think of how to do it, but rather the Holy Spirit holding me back until the right time. All of a sudden, it was like I knew what to say, and I felt that "go for it!" in my spirit. It did start some interesting discussion and got some people to look into the scriptures. God has been blowing me away in the last couple of weeks through just leading me! Just pray and ask Him what He wants you to do. I believe He'll be faithful and let you know.

Perhaps a "seed" like a postcard or business card, with the headline and copy: "Major Prophecy About To Be Fulfilled?" Learn NOW at: www.LoveNeighbor.comThen, just hand them out or litter them wherever you go. This is a blog I made. No one's name is on it. 100% anonymous. Covers the basics. Check it out and use as you will!

It's interesting to see that so many others feel as stuck as I do. I'm not afraid to tell people that I'm a believer - in fact most people at work already know. But this... this is tin-foil hat territory to most people. If the Lord tarries, it would be hard to get anyone to listen to you ever again. If he doesn't, you can't talk to them anyway, cause you'll be gone!
I have been focusing on using facebook, because people can choose to read it or ignore it and probably wouldn't remember the authors of whacky posts they've read in the past... HOWEVER, getting the message out does require some tenacity, which implies repeated posts. So it could actually tarnish your FB rep, but Jesus told us that would happen, so it's part of being a Christian.
I've started a group for all kinds of truther type stuff, and this kind of works with that. Personally, I focus my posts on other things that have been prophesied, such as global warming, earthquakes, wars, etc.. The idea is to shape their thinking to see these things as part of a general trend, hoping that they can cognitively fit warnings about the sign together with everything else they're seeing.
