Signs of the End Times

Below, I have provided a list of signs in the Bible that point to the end times. These signs are becoming more and more frequent which means the rapture of the church and the beginning of the seven-year tribulation period is soon approaching. Are you ready?

-False Christ’s – Matt. 24:4-5; 23-26; Luke 21:8
-Wars, threats of war, world wars (“nation will go to war against nation, and kingdom against kingdom”) – Matt.24:6-7; Luke 21:9-11
-Worldwide famine, plagues, earthquakes, signs in the heavens – Matt. 24:7; Luke 21:11 [Jesus said “ But all this is only the first of the birth pains, with more to come.” Matthew 24:8]
-Christians to be arrested, persecuted, and killed. “And many will turn away from me and betray and hate each other.” - Matthew 24:10
-Christians will be betrayed by their own families. – Luke 21:16
-People will be saved through the persecution. – Luke 21:19
-False Prophets deceiving many. - Matthew24:11
-Sin will be rampant everywhere; the love for God in many Christians will grow cold . – Matthew 24:12
-The gospel will be preached throughout the whole world to all nations and the end will come. – Matt. 24:14
-People will party and live life to its fullest all the way up until Jesus Second Coming. Like Noah they will ignore the warnings given by God. Christians must be watchful , alert, ready for the Lord’s coming– Matt. 24:37-39; Luke 21:34-36; I Thess. 5:4-8
-Homosexuality would be increasingly evident at the end of the age. - 2 Timothy 3:3
-Stress would be part of living. - 2 Timothy 3:1
-There would be a cold religious system, in denying God's power . - 2 Timothy 3:5
-Men would substitute fantasy in place of Christian truth. - 2 Timothy 4:4. (This is so evident at Christmas when the birth of the Savior is lost behind the myth of Santa Claus.)
-The fact that God once flooded the earth (the Noahic flood) would be denied. - 2 Peter 3:5-6. (There is a mass of fossil evidence to prove this fact, yet it is flatly ignored by the scientific world because of its uncanny implication.)
-The institution of marriage would be forsaken by many, - 1 Timothy 4:3
-Increase in vegetarianism. - 1 Timothy 4:3-4
-The possession of Jerusalem would be at the center of international turmoil - Zechariah 12:3
-Knowledge would increase - Daniel 12:4
-There would be hypocrites within the Church. - Matthew 13:25-30
-The future would seem fearful to many - Luke 21:26
-Humanity would become materialistic. - 2 Timothy 3:4
-There would be many involved in travel. – Daniel 12:4
-Youth would become rebellious. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy (2Timothy 3:2)
-Men would mock the warning signs of the end of the age saying, "for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation." (2 Peter 3:4). The Bible even reveals their motivation, they love lust (verse 3). They fail to understand that a day to the Lord is as a thousand years to us. God is not subject to the time that He created. He can flick through time as we flick through the pages of a history book. The reason He seems to be silent, is because He is patiently waiting, not willing that any perish, but that all come to repentance.

If you are not ready, confess the with your mouth the following and believe it in your heart as you say it (Romans 10:9, 10).

A - Admit that you are a sinner and that you need a Savior.
B - Believe that God sent Jesus Christ to die for your sins and He arose from the grave three days later as the scriptures state.
C - Confess him as your Savior and Lord. Repent (turn from) your sins and trust Christ to put His spirit in you and begin to change you.

Don't wait. Jesus is coming!
