"You say what's going to happen on this earth when the Rapture occurs?
You'll be riding along in an automobile; you'll be the driver, perhaps;
you're a Christian; there'll be several people in the automobile with
you, maybe someone who is not a Christian. When the trumpet sounds, you
and the other born-again Christians in that automobile will be instantly
caught away, you'll disappear, leaving behind only your clothing and
physical things that cannot inherit eternal life. That unsaved person or
persons in the automobile will suddenly be startled to find that the car
is moving along without a driver, and suddenly somewhere crashes. Those
saved people in the car have disappeared. Other cars on the highway
driven by believers will suddenly be out of control. Stark pandemonium
will occur on that highway and on every highway in the world where
Christians are caught away from the world."
