After the immediate effects of the Rapture such as fear, panic, grief over losses, dealing with rioting and looting, and with economic collapses, and with all kinds of false teaching and false theories; there will also be major ongoing changes on the earth and in heaven. Here are seven of those changes.

1. Efforts to set up a new global government. Key leaders will no doubt gather together from all over the world to discuss and make decisions on a global currency, the form of government, and the controls of government. The new world government will likely be a revived Roman empire headed by the European Union (EU). Here are a few reason why:

• The EU has a power structure required to unite and control the world.
• The EU is already working to control its people.
• The EU’s stated goal is to unite the world in peace.
• The EU has a plan for Israel that is fitting with bible prophecy (Dan. 9:27).
• The EU has conflicts of authority that match with what we see in Daniel 2:41-43.
• The EU is moving closer to a ten-nation federation as is required by bible prophecy.2

2. Efforts to set up a new global religion. There really won’t be too much effort needed to set up a new global religion, because man’s heart will already be bent toward evil. In fact, the roots of an evil system of religion—which will be called the harlot—have gone back as far as ancient Babylon. Since then, it has corrupted the church (the Catholic church); and soon, shortly after the Rapture, it will draw all of its power from Satan and the Antichrist. And just like her title of harlot suggests, she will be attractive, alluring, and deceptive—especially to the younger generation. She will supposedly prop herself up as Christian, but secretly she will hate true believers and rebel against God. This soon will become evident when she set out to kill all true Christians.

As far as when this false religious system is officially set up, this will depend on a few things.

• The harlot system will officially begin when global religious unity is established between all world religions.
• It will begin when the spirit world of demons are at their peak of evil influence.
• It will begin probably when the Ezekiel war (Ezek. 38 and 39) is finished; the killing of most Muslims in the war will be an advantage to the harlot system—since they insist on the worship of only one god.
• It will begin when the harlot and the Antichrist think they can work together peacefully (but at the end the beast will destroy her, Rev. 17:16).3

The next five events will be on upcoming blogs.
