JESUS IS COMING AT THE CLOSE OF THIS AGE!
JESUS IS COMING AT THE CLOSE OF THIS AGE!
As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the close of the age?” —Matthew 24:3
Jesus is coming soon! What are the signs that point to His coming? Here are a few from Matthew 24:1-22 and they seem to be coming upon us…
- Many false Messiahs will make claims
- There will be wars
- There will famines
- There will be earthquakes
- There will be martyrs
- There will be hatred toward Jesus’ followers by ALL nations
- There will be a falling away
- There will be betrayal
- There will be hatred
- There will be false prophets leading many astray
- There will be increased lawlessness
- There will be the cold love of many
- The gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed to all nations
- The abomination of desolation will be standing in the holy place
- There will be great tribulation never known before
The gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed to all nations just as we will “make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything (Jesus has) commanded (us). And surely (Jesus is) with (us) always, to the very end of the age” (Matthew 28:19-20). So, His church, His body, will be witnesses and make disciple among all nations before the end of the age. That surely is in our grasp to accomplish. Dear Father, may the work on earth soon be done that Jesus gave us to do. May this be so by the power of Your Holy Spirit and in the authority of Your Son, Jesus. Yes, may this be so! Even so, Lord Jesus, come! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBHcvJhc6Pk
