Although the Christian Church (all true believers in Christ Jesus) will have
been taken to heaven prior to the Antichrist arriving on the scene,1
all witness of Christ Jesus will not have been removed from
the earth;
Bibles, videos, and other literature will be left behind.
During the seven year Tribulation, people will continue to be saved through
faith in Christ Jesus as Lord and Savior; presently it is through the witness of
the Christian Church; then, it will be through the Jewish people.2
As to God the Holy Spirit being removed from the earth, He will not be; He is
God, and God is everywhere present, all the time and forever; He will be
actively bringing things into being and restraining other things. What
will be removed, however, will be the restraining of evil, by the Holy Spirit,
through the Christian Church; the Christian Church will be in heaven during the
time of Tribulation. 3
