SIGNS OF THE LAST DAYS


And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. Mathew 24:11
Read : 1 Timothy 4:1-2
1 NOW the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith,
giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
Message
The Bible tells us about the things that will happen to mark the end of this world and the
beginning of eternal life. Beginning with the rapture, there will be extreme joy for those that
will be found on the Lords side, while there will be extreme pain and sorrow for those that will be found on the devils side. As the curtain begins to be drawn over the activities of this world, the
trumpet will sound. Then, Jesus Christ will appear physically in the sky with overwhelming glory, to raise the dead, judge the world, destroy opposition to God, and consummate His everlasting kingdom. Believers form the Bible says prepared for His return, waiting with eagerness and joy, but rapture didn't happen. It was with
this in mind that the disciples ask Jesus questions about what would be the signs of the last days in Mathew 24:3:" the disciples come unto him privately, saying,Tell us, when shall
these things be? And what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?" The same two important questions that whole world still asks till date are; when shall there things be? What shall be the signs? Fortunately, the Bible does it beat round the bush about the first question ( when),Jesus clearly states that nobody knows exact time except the Father. Note the Jesus preceded the answer with warning,
'Take grass that no man deceived you'. Never believe anyone that gives you a date or timetable
for the second Coming of Jesus, no matter how advance the mathematical theory may seem. Jesus however, spoke extensively on the signs of the last days; the Bible has enough information to help Christians make adequate preparations for the second coming of Christ. Mathew 24:1-5
speaks volumes and 1 Timothy 4:1 says : "NOW the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the
latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;" The key things to look out for are there; false prophets, lovers of self, wars and rumours of war,
famine, pestilence, earthquakes, persecution, betrayal, iniquity shall abound, the love of many
shall wax cold, some shall depart from the faith, seducing spirits, doctrines of devils,hypocrisy. All these are presently happening hat an alarming rate all over the world. Children of God should pay special attention to false prophets with teachings that are contrary to the Word of God. Any teach
in that cannot be substantiated with the Bible belongs to the devil; avoid them and their
messages like a plague. Be warned.
Action Point :
Lord Jesus. Please send the fire of revival to keep me burning for you till your Second Coming.
