Signs of the Times
When asked by His disciples what signs shall signal the end of days, Yeshu’a said “nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many”-Matthew 24:7-11. Reading Christ’s Words above is just as if you were reading the newspaper today. Russia and Ukraine, North Korea and the US. The famine in the Horn of Africa. The Ebola and HIV pandemic. Earthquakes in Haiti, China and Iran. The killings and attacks of worshippers in their places of worship. The rejection of God and religion in the public life of many nations and the hatred for people who reject some social practices they believe are alien to God. The many miracle workers who advertise miracles they don’t perform whereas Christ performed miracles and asked the beneficiaries not to tell anyone. So go back and compare Yeshu’a’s Word to current events and know what times we are living in.
