What are the signs that Jesus Christ is coming back for us?
The Bible tells us that Jesus has many different roles and titles, but one of his most important ones is the “Coming One.”
Today we’ll be going over 8 signs that point to Jesus’ return.
These are not in any particular order.
Remember: there’s no such thing as a false alarm!
Sign 1
The Bible includes several prophecies about the end times.
These are moments in history where everything comes together to tell us that Jesus’ return is just around the corner.
One of these is a prophecy about Jerusalem being destroyed by armies from all four corners of the earth at once, which has happened only once in history.
Sign 2
The Bible tells us that, at the end of time, we will see a great increase in knowledge and technology.
There will be so much of it that people won’t even know what to do with all the information they have.
We see this happening all around us.
For example, before the internet, we wouldn’t have guessed that people would someday meet each other over a social network.
Sign 3
Jesus said that in the end times, wars and rumors of war would increase.
Today we see this playing out all around us with events like ISIS and the Syrian War.
Wars are happening all over the world, and it seems like there’s no end in sight.
Sign 4
In the Bible, Jesus tells us that in the end times there will be a great increase in natural disasters.
We see this happening all around us with events like the earthquakes in Japan and Nepal, the floods in Pakistan and India, and the drought in California.
Sign 5
Jesus said that in the end times, it will be difficult for people to have faith.
Today we see this with the rise of atheism and agnosticism.
People are asking more and more questions about faith, and many are turning away from religion altogether.
Our faith seems to be tested more than ever.
Sign 6
In the Bible it tells a false prophet will rise up and deceive many people with magic, signs, and wonders.
We see this happening today with the rise of false religions, self-healers, and so-called ‘miracle workers’.
These people are gaining popularity in many parts of the world.
Even some Christians believe that they perform miracles when in reality all these people do is a simple trick.
Sign 7
Jesus tells us in the Bible that in the end times there will be a great famine.
We see this happening today with the famine in South Sudan, Somalia, and Yemen.
Millions of people are at risk of starvation right now because their country is being destroyed by war.
Sign 8
Jesus states in the Bible that people would be persecuted for their religion at the end of time.
Christians are undergoing harassment in Syria, Iraq, and North Korea today because they follow Jesus.
These are just a few of the many signs that Jesus is coming back for us.
It’s important to remember that none of these things are meant to scare us.
They are meant to remind us that Jesus is coming back and that we need to be ready.
So let’s keep our faith strong and stay close to God. Amen.
