When These Things Begin to Happen

When These Things Begin to Happen

Matthew 24:33   ³³ So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

What “things” was Jesus talking of?  He was speaking of wars and rumors of war, and false prophets. The only way to keep from being deceived is to focus on Christ Jesus and His words. The nations and Kingdoms “other countries” will proclaim war against each other and there will be famine and earthquakes in many parts of the world.

There will be pestilences, which are sickness like the flu and other illnesses, another part of the signs there will be iniquity, and the love of many shall become cold.

I don’t know when God will send his son Jesus to take us out by the rapture, but all the signs are here upon us. Signs like there were in the days of Noah.

Genesis 6:5   ⁵ And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

This is an example of what is going on in the whole world, with the exception of the few righteous Christians that trust and serve God.

It was the same with Sodom and Gomorrah, they were so evil and out of touch with God until there was no hope of saving them. God is saying to America and other countries, humble yourselves and live righteous before me, and I will heal your land.

It seems to me that the iniquity is getting worse with each passing day, the rumors of ware are building up as well. Hatred among the people is swelling as well as hatred between the nations. It appears that we are getting closer to the end times, the end of the age of grace.

Matthew 24:14   ¹⁴ And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

Jesus said that before he returns the good news about the kingdom, which is the message of salvation would be preached throughout the world.

This was the disciples mission, and today it is ours. Jesus talked about the end times and final judgment to show his followers the urgency of spreading the good news of salvation to everyone.

Have you noticed how many of the TV evangelists are now world wide with their ministry. It too is a sign. The message of salvation is reaching the whole world. Our time on earth is slowly ticking away. The time is near whether you accept it or not.

Because of the lack of hope there are a lot of suicides and drug abuse. Satan has stolen their hope. He is having a field day keeping people away from God.

God has said heaven and earth shall disappear, but my word shall remain forever.

Mark 13:23   ²³ But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.

Jesus warned us that the end times will be difficult and not fall away. If we keep our relationship with Christ, we will  be prepared to remain faithful till the end.

In the days of Jesus and his disciples the world seemed so permanent.

In these days many fear it’s self-destruction by nuclear war. Jesus told us that even if the earth passes away His truth of His words will never change or be abolished.

Mark 13:29-33   ²⁹ So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to pass, know that it is nigh, even at the doors.

³⁰ Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till all these things be done.

³¹ Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

³² But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.

³³ Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.

³⁴ For the Son of Man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.

³⁵ Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning:

Jesus said, we will see these things coming to pass, yet no one knows the hour or the day, only the father know.

Are you willing to take a chance on tomorrow, or even tonight? Even while you sleep, Heaven is real and hell is real, which do you choose.

Accept Jesus as Lord and Savior and spend eternity with him.
