Will we be ready ?

In (2 Peter 3:4) the Bible tells us that in the last days the scoffer will attack the doctrine of the second coming of Jesus Christ, saying "where is the promise of his coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.” It’s easy to think that we have a lot of time until the Rapture, but truthfully it can happen at any moment. The world doesn't seem too worried however, in fact people today are becoming even more bold in their sin, not really caring or fearing God, but even that is a good indicator that our time is very short. Remember, God is not on our time schedule, and “The lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness;…But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night;..” There will come a day when the Church of God will be taken up into heaven, both those who are dead and the living, and our bodies re-fashioned like the resurrected body of Jesus Christ (Phil. 3:21). So be ready, for only those born-again by the Spirit of God will be going up! For he will come at a time when we think not! So the Question remains : Will we be ready ?
