For over 38 years, Rapture Ready has played a significant role in Bible prophecy. I sincerely appreciate everyone who has contributed to the site in any capacity.
Recently, I received an unusual complaint from someone who found a message on a bathroom wall promoting our humble domain. The note read, “Your wife loves my website, RaptureReady.com. I am coming soon – Jesus.” I took the opportunity to clarify that we do not endorse graffiti as a means of promotion.
If someone wanted to alert others about the end times, RaptureReady.com would be an excellent link to post in a public forum such as a men’s restroom. Every article on our site is freely available for anyone to access and share with other people.
We once included a humorous message at the bottom of the main page: “Many people have asked if they could reproduce content from Rapture Ready. I always respond, ‘Absolutely!’ In fact, readers are welcome to share this information through mail, email, airmail, conversations, billboards, carrier pigeons, pony express, smoke signals; by phone, television, telegraph, teletype; using Braille, sign language, messages in bottles, drum beats, books, CDs, radio, and even telepathy for those New Age enthusiasts. The only copyright I request is that if you reproduce our work, please do it correctly.”
Regarding donations to support RR, I’ve always aimed to keep requests minimal. As most of you already know, we only post our financial needs every three months.
We don’t maintain a donor mailing list. If you haven’t donated to RR in the last quarter, you won’t receive another thank-you letter until your next donation. Many ministries inundate new donors with solicitation letters. I once reached out to several radio-based Christian organizations, and I was quickly overwhelmed with junk mail.
As search engines become increasingly influential in determining who visits our site, they can affect our donor base. While our traffic and financial support have remained steady, the number of new donors has mysteriously declined. We suspect that Big Brother is pointing more people to the site who are hostile or indifferent to the Christian faith.
Yes, we want to reach the lost, but believers are the lifeblood of any Christian ministry. If we attract too many atheists, it could lead to our eventual demise.
Rapture Ready has a significant mathematical counterbalance: we only need support from a small fraction of our visitors. Years ago, I noticed that our donor base consisted of just 0.1% of our audience.
When the Blessed Hope occurs, RaptureReady.com will become an immensely valuable domain. Some tech companies are currently valued in the trillions of dollars, but the worth of RR extends far beyond mere currency, as it explains Bible prophecy from beginning to end. Please help us sustain this beacon of hope.
There are three ways you can contribute to RR: You can send a financial gift via our P.O. Box address; you can make a one-time donation; or there is a “frequent” option that allows you to make monthly donations. If you’re interested in signing up, find the links on the Donation Depot page. Donations can be sent to our P.O. Box at:
