In our day the Bible has told us that there is a coming global empire headed by the Antichrist. The Bible has prophesied that mankind would be lovers of self and haters of God. The Bible has foretold that in the church fables would be preferred over sound doctrine and that Israel would be invaded by Russia, Iran, Turkey, Libya, and Sudan. Currently, three of these countries have a military presence on Israel’s northern border.
Yet the expectation of the coming of the Lord to gather His church to meet Him in the air with the dead in Christ is very low, and for many, it is not expected at all.
Romans 1:24-25
Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
The word “creature” can be translated as “creation”. Are people worshipping “creation” today? There are those today who think we should use any means possible to lower the population of the earth for the sake of the planet. They fabricate things about climate change and don’t mention that the climate has always changed and that historically it has been much warmer in the past than it is now. Yet, when the temperatures were higher the sea levels didn’t rise and kill millions of people or animals.
Genesis 8:22
“While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, winter and summer, and day and night shall not cease.”
God said things will continue as He created them as long as the earth remains.
It is a sad reality that very few churches today are teaching their people about Bible prophecy, leaving them without the hope and comfort of knowing the Lord is coming to take us in a moment and twinkling of an eye to the Father’s house to forever be with Him. They are also living without the awareness that the things happening in the world today tell us that it is likely Jesus is coming for us soon.
What a shame so many live as proof of the words of Jesus
when He said that He is coming at an hour when He is not even expected.
Are you among the ready who can say with confidence and expectation:
Even so, come quickly Lord Jesus,
MARANATHA!
