The End is Coming Soon

 

THE END IS COMING…AGAIN???

You’ve heard it many times no doubt. So many people for so many years have claimed the end of the world is coming. I remember full-page advertisements in the newspapers of many major cities back in the late 70’s declaring the end of the world. Some claiming Jesus already returned and was seen in one location or another. We’re still here. And the Bible even predicted exactly that. Peter said,

“Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, (v.4) and saying, ‘Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation’” (II Peter 3:3-4)

To be sure that you would not believe Jesus’ return was near, Satan blinded your eyes with numerous false claims. One right after the other, until you were sick of hearing about it.

I am not saying Jesus will return by Monday morning. But he could. Look at the currency. With bitcoins and things of that nature on the market today, how far away is a universal currency? Almost every person in the world can witness his second coming simultaneously. If not physically then by television and the internet. Christians are openly persecuted in many countries today. How long before they are silenced here and in Europe also? It is already beginning here. The cry for world unity is stronger than ever. And in essence that is not a bad idea, in and of itself. But a one-world government is essential to prophecy as well. And that government in the last days, will be severely anti-Christian and anti-Judaism. Immorality and anarchy will rule the day. Jesus said in Luke 17:26-30:

“And as it was in the days of Noe (Noah), so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. (v.27) They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. (v.28) Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; (v.29) but the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. (v.30) Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.”

                 The depravity of the hearts of men in the days of Noah and Lot is praised in today’s society. In the time of Noah and Lot, the sinful activity of man was seen on the streets because it could not be hidden. How sick is the world today? It is horrifying to think what goes on with the use of computers and the internet today. Women and children being bought and sold like cattle and many of the governments of this word standing by doing nothing or even participating. Could the days of Lot and Noah be worse than what we already see today? I doubt it.

                There is, in my opinion, this one last opportunity to be redeemed, to come to Christ for salvation, before it is too late. Some, because they have heard about the rapture, have said they will wait until they see the Church (God’s people) removed and then they will believe and be saved. Please understand…that is not possible.   (Message me if you don’t know what the rapture is.)

When the rapture occurs and believers are removed from this world, ALL who remain here, will believe the narrative of the government at that time;

II Thessalonians 2:11-12; “And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: (v.12) that they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” You will not believe, no matter how miraculous the event of our departure.

This may very well be your LAST opportunity for salvation. God loves you and is “…not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance” (II Peter 3:9b). But the choice is yours. God warns repeatedly, He cries out to be saved. But He leaves the choice to you.

The end is on the horizon, there is no doubt. Will you come to Christ today for salvation?
