Amazon has a number of user-generated “So you’d like to…” lists, some useful, some tongue-in-cheek, some a bit scary, like So You’d Like To… Prepare for the Apocalypse (Tribulation):
Though the 7-year Tribulation (“Trib”) is not the end of the world (just the painful “birth pangs” before birth of the messianic age), it does include “great tribulation such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.” The products below are to help you to lessen your suffering during the Tribulation or to avoid it altogether if you are reading this before the rapture. The products are illustrative, not exhaustive.(The why and when of the Trib is beyond the scope of this guide — see my other guide, “So You’d Like To…Understand Endtimes Prophecy (Frrom Pre-Trib, Pre-Mil View)”.)
**IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER**
If at the time of reading this you are already 3-1/2 years into the Trib, which is when the identity mark of the beast (666) is required for buying or selling, I AM NOT SUGGESTING YOU TAKE THE 666 IN ORDER TO BUY THIS GUIDE’S PRODUCTS. Doing so can only offer a bit of temporal comfort, but will seal your eternal doom in the lake of fire. My advice: do not take the mark!LIST #1 – FOR THOSE LEFT BEHIND AFTER THE RAPTURE
