What are the signs of the end times?

It’s important to know so we can explain to others why Christians believe what we believe.

As Peter says:

“But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.” 1 Peter 3:15 (NLT)

Unfortunately, too many Christians are unable to explain why they believe we’re in the last days when the opportunity presents itself.

One argument in particular seems to catch today’s Christians off guard.

Peter forewarned us of this argument:

"Most importantly, I want to remind you that in the last days scoffers will come, mocking the truth and following their own desires. They will say, 'What happened to the promise that Jesus is coming again? From before the times of our ancestors, everything has remained the same since the world was first created.'" 2 Peter 3:3-4 (NLT)

The particular version I hear most often is, “Sure, you think Jesus is coming, but so have previous generations.”

The implication is that our generation will pass without the Second Coming just as those previous generations passed without His Coming.

Aside from being illogical, this assertion flies in the face of plain observation as well as mountains of irrefutable evidence.

A Sign of the End?

Is the prevalence of Peter’s end time skeptic argument in-and-of itself a sign of the end times?

No.

But let’s take a second look at what he said:

“They will say, 'What happened to the promise that Jesus is coming again? From before the times of our ancestors, everything has remained the same since the world was first created.'" 2 Peter 3:4 (NLT)



Sound familiar?

How many times have you heard someone say, “It’s the same now as it’s always been” or at least something along those lines?

Probably a lot.

But is it?

Is it really the same?

When non-believers tell you there are no signs of the end times which are unique to our time, you need to be prepared to set the record straight.

Below are at least seven signs of the end times.

Commit them to memory, and as Peter says, “be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.”

(My Comment: Christ is nearer now then ever before. Wake up! With all my heart, I beg for you to Wake Up. I have seen what awaits those who do not accept Christ (Glory to God for allowing me to have these visions), and it is a horrendous sight.)

A summer of biblical climatic havoc...Another sign that Christ is near!

CBS is reporting: It's been a summer of near biblical climatic havoc across the planet, with wildfires, heat and smog in Russia and killer floods in Asia. But the moment the Petermann glacier cracked last week - creating the biggest Arctic ice island in half a century - may symbolize a warming world like no other. To read the entire story CLICK HERE


Luke 21 verses 5:36
Signs of the End of the Age

5Some of his disciples were remarking about how the temple was adorned with beautiful stones and with gifts dedicated to God. But Jesus said, 6"As for what you see here, the time will come when not one stone will be left on another; every one of them will be thrown down."

7"Teacher," they asked, "when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are about to take place?"

8He replied: "Watch out that you are not deceived. For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am he,' and, 'The time is near.' Do not follow them. 9When you hear of wars and revolutions, do not be frightened. These things must happen first, but the end will not come right away."

10Then he said to them: "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. 11There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.

12"But before all this, they will lay hands on you and persecute you. They will deliver you to synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors, and all on account of my name. 13This will result in your being witnesses to them. 14But make up your mind not to worry beforehand how you will defend yourselves. 15For I will give you words and wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict. 16You will be betrayed even by parents, brothers, relatives and friends, and they will put some of you to death. 17All men will hate you because of me. 18But not a hair of your head will perish. 19By standing firm you will gain life.

20"When you see Jerusalem being surrounded by armies, you will know that its desolation is near. 21Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those in the city get out, and let those in the country not enter the city. 22For this is the time of punishment in fulfillment of all that has been written. 23How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people. 24They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

25"There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. 26Men will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken. 27At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near."

29He told them this parable: "Look at the fig tree and all the trees. 30When they sprout leaves, you can see for yourselves and know that summer is near. 31Even so, when you see these things happening, you know that the kingdom of God is near.

32"I tell you the truth, this generation[b] will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. 33Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.

34"Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you unexpectedly like a trap. 35For it will come upon all those who live on the face of the whole earth. 36Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man."

My Comment: Jesus is close...so close. And I get emotional thinking of others who do not see this. I pray many will repent, before it's too late.

Matthew 7:15 ESV “Beware of false prophets...

Matthew 7:15 ESV “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves.

1 John 4:1 ESV Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.

Romans 16:17-18 ESV I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive.

Exposed: I've done two articles on what the holy bible calls false prophet, but I've never in my life come across such blatant disregard of the bible by Landover Baptist Church.

JESUS CHRIST warned us that during the end times, and even before such- false prophets were among us, and that we were to beware of them. There are numerous biblical verses, where Christ and his prophets warned us in advance.

2 John 1:10-11 If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house or give him any greeting, for whoever greets him takes part in his wicked works.

John 7:24 "Do not judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment.”

2 John 1:7 For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not confess the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh. Such a one is the deceiver and the antichrist.

Christ is at the door, and Satan is at work knowing his time is short. Pray that we adhere strictly to the bible, and don't give Satan as shown by their evil posts at Landover Baptist Church a hold on you. For it is written in the HOLY BIBLE,
1 John 4:1 Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.

There is also an interesting article CLICK HERE about Landover Baptist Church being exposed. I agree with the article 100%.

There are websites that claim it is a joke site, but they are blasphemy the word of Christ and Christ himself. The Landover forum claims: We also believe that the King James Bible is the only accurate English translation of God's Word.
Lies from Satan himself! They twist God's scripture to the way Satan wants it to read. REPENT BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE. PLEASE REPENT! Jesus said:
Revelation 20:15 And if any one's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire. No mind can wrap around the concept of what actually awaits the unbeliever. But who would even want to find out? Please pray, use the bible ONLY THE WORD OF GOD, to guide you.

I tell you JESUS CHRIST IS NEAR, and just like we will all be judged, so will Landover Baptist Church.

Isaiah 59:19 So they will fear the name of the LORD from the west And His glory from the rising of the sun, For He will come like a rushing stream Which the wind of the LORD drives.

God Bless you and remember ALWAYS ALWAYS LOOK TO JESUS CHRIST, AND ONLY HIM. HE IS OUR KING, AND OUR SAVIOUR.

Judging Planet Earth

I came across an article that breaks down what God will do to those that have rejected his word.

It is a must read. CLICK HERE and you'll be taken to the article.

And in case you need the direct link: http://gracethrufaith.com/ikvot-hamashiach/judging-planet-earth/#more-19316

I've also come across a blogger states: "Why would God put mankind through this?" The very question and audacity of the blogger to make it seem as if God is evil, is a lie from the devil himself. Jesus died for us-he made the ultimate sacrifice, just so we can be saved. And yet, what has this world come to? Rapists, murders, lovers of money, drugs, practicing witch craft, homosexuals, and other Satanic things that God wants us to turn from. And what do the people on Earth do, continue to do the very things Jesus Christ does not stand for. But while there is breath in your body, you can come to Christ. It's simple repent from your sins, and ask God to open your heart.

God Bless you all.

I hope this article awakens many to Christ!
