Future world events
We are living in perilous times, or dangerous times. There are wars and rumors of wars. They are many false teachings and false churches, deceiving people in the name of Christ. Many deceived people by preaching a Jesus that promise wealth and health, with success in career and self –fulfillment, but there is no warning about the danger of loving the world. In fact the world and its entertainment is found in such churches. But the bible says for the believer the world and all its desires should be crucified.
Galatians 6:14-But God forbid that I should glory save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.
And the world is intolerant to believers, there are persecution of Christians in many parts of the world. Then there are the natural disasters like hurricanes and earthquakes, and diseases. And the moral values of the world will get worse, what used to be wrong will now be right, because the world values tolerance more than righteousness. Truth has become relative. These the bible says are the signs of the end times. And these end time events will continue and get worse and worse, and will end in one big event, known as the Day of the Lord.
Most of the scriptures on the end times and return of Jesus can be found in Book of Revelation, 1 & 2 Thessalonians, 2 Peter, the gospel of Matthew, Mark and Luke, and also Old Testament book like Isaiah, Amos, Zechariah, Joel. The purpose is to get people to prepare for the Day of the Lord, to repent and turn to God before judgment comes.
The Day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night, when the world is not expecting. It will come suddenly like a lightning and it will be followed by shaking of the earth (global earthquakes) and shaking of the heavens, with the sun turning dark and the moon turning blood red. The believers, those who love Jesus, will be caught up to meet Jesus in heaven, while those who obey not the gospel will be left behind to experience further deception; a world leader will be revealed and his prophet will help him to deceive the world.
This world leader will later claim that he is God or the Christ and his prophet will deceive the world to worship him. The bible call him the Antichrist. Those who don't worship him cannot be part of the new world economy and community, they cannot buy or sell. There will be some who are left behind that will understand and will not be deceived by this, they will trust in Jesus, and be martyred for their faith.
Unprecedented disasters will be upon the world, and the world leader and his prophet will organize a rebellion against God , attempting to annihilate Israel. Jesus Christ will return and defeat the world leader and his followers. He will bring peace and justice to the world. And Jerusalem will once again be the glorious city.
Acts 2:20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come
Isaiah 13:9-10 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it. For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.
Matthew 24:42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
1 Thessalonians 5:2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
