For over 33 years God has led me to watch the world scene concerning the End Times. In that time, I have been waiting for certain signs… signs that mark when the Lord’s coming would be near according to the Scriptures… signs of when the Antichrist would come on the scene and be known as to his identity. There are literally hundreds of signs to watch for that would tell us whether or not the Lord’s coming should be near.
When Jesus walked the earth and He sent out disciples into the cities into which He was about to go, he told them to say to the cities, “The kingdom of God has come near to you.” In Mark 1:15, Jesus preached, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel."
I am proclaiming to you that The Kingdom of God is near and that you should repent of your sins, believe in the Gospel of Jesus Christ, turn from your sins, obey Christ in doing what He wants you to do and watch for Jesus’ coming.
I want to emphasize that Jesus commanded us to be obedient to Him and continue doing the works He commands you to do until He returns. Matthew 24:42-51 tells us how we should be obeying Christ until He returns from His long journey.
Matthew 24:42-51: NKJ
42. "Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming.
43. "But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into.
44. "Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour when you do not expect Him.
45. "Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his master made ruler over his household, to give them food in due season?
46. "Blessed is that servant whom his master, when he comes, will find so doing.
47. "Assuredly, I say to you that he will make him ruler over all his goods.
48. "But if that evil servant says in his heart, `My master is delaying his coming,'
49. "and begins to beat his fellow servants, and to eat and drink with the drunkards,
50. "the master of that servant will come on a day when he is not looking for him and at an hour that he is not aware of,
51. "and will cut him in two and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
When Jesus comes back to take His faithful saints to heaven, we should be the ones whom He sees doing the Father’s will. Those who are not obeying the Father’s will when Jesus returns will go through the Tribulation Period.
If you are looking for Jesus Christ to come on this earth and set up His kingdom, He will not do this when He takes faithful Christians to heaven in the rapture. We will rise and He will meet us in the clouds and He will take us to heaven. After this event that is called the rapture, the Antichrist, on earth, will claim to be God and will convince millions upon millions of people he is a god. He will actually die and rise again back to life. This will convince most of the world he is a god, but he is not.
The Antichrist will make everyone to take a mark either on their forehead or hand/forearm. Refuse this mark at any cost. If you receive this mark, you will be condemned to hell for an eternity. You can’t buy or sell without it, but refuse it at all costs.
These events will take place during the Tribulation Period of 7 years when God punishes mankind for not accepting Christ as their Savior and following Him in obedience.
During the Tribulation Period, a person can be saved if they ask Jesus Christ to come into their hearts as I have outlined on this web site and in my book also offered on this web site. You must not participate in the Antichrist’s organizations or pledge allegiance to the Antichrist or worship him or receive his mark.
Jesus will come to earth only after the 7 year Tribulation Period is over and the Antichrist and his armies are destroyed. So, again, don’t go following a person who says he is Jesus Christ who walks on this earth. You will know when the Tribulation Period comes by knowing the events that take place during the Tribulation Period I have outlined in my book. The rapture of faithful saints is the beginning event of the Tribulation Period. I pray you are found worthy to be taken to heaven in the rapture and escape the Tribulation Period. No one will want to be here during that most terrible time the earth will ever know.
I have been watching and have recognized many signs that point me to Jesus’ return being near.
Here are a few Signs that Jesus’ coming is near:
Sign #1. When the Antichrist and/or his organizations are revealed. God has revealed the Antichrist’s organizations to some of us who are watching, who are open to and recognize the truth.
Look at 2 Thessalonians 2.
2 Thessalonians 2:1-4: NKJ
1. Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you,
2. not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come.
3. Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition,
4. who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.
Christ cannot come until the falling away takes place AND the Antichrist is revealed. Many people stop at the first part of the verse and don’t realize that Christ cannot come until The Antichrist is revealed.
Sign #2. When the people and world powers cry for peace and safety, as 1 Thessalonians 5:2-3 says, and create world organizations to enforce peace and safety.
1 Thessalonians 5:2-3: NKJ
1. But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you.
2. For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night.
3. For when they say, "Peace and safety!'' then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape.
Many organizations around the world are all doing just that. They are all proclaiming that they can provide peace if the nations join them. We should stay away from these organizations. They are fulfilling the Scriptures that warn us about them. The sudden destruction that comes upon them is the Tribulation Period in which they can’t escape. You either become a Christian during the Tribulation Period or you follow the Antichrist. There is no other outcome during the Tribulation Period.
Sign #3. When banking systems and food are being controlled by world organizations, this is a major sign of Jesus’ coming is near. Since at least 2007 and 2008, controlling the world’s banks and the world’s food markets have been on the agendas of major world organizations to bring them under their control. This directly fulfills the Biblical prophecies concerning the coming of Christ being near. The Antichrist will control all food and banking systems.
Sign #4. The increase of murders, crime, hatred towards each other, uncontrolled greed, increased heat and earthquakes and things like more hurricanes… these all point to Jesus coming being near at hand. All of these things are increasing, as prophesied, and have been drastically increasing since the 1980s.
Sign #5. When the apostasy of the Church occurs. This means that people will stop following Christ and the Truth of Christ, even though they may go to a church. People's hearts will grow cold and uncaring towards the needs of others. Church pastors today are more interested in planning ski trips than obeying Christ in witnessing and proclaiming the Truth of the Gospel. Churches are more interested in gaining wealth and becoming large empires instead of focusing on winning the lost and speaking about Jesus’ coming and walking in obedience to Christ. Many false prophets have gone forth, as the Scriptures tell us, and preach other gospels that tickle the ears of the listeners, but the message they preach is far from the Truth. They only preach what the people want to hear. People will follow their own interests rather than the interests of God. This also means that people will begin following the Antichrist’s organization even more. They will follow the apostate leaders who claim to be true apostles, but are not.
A second meaning to the word apostasy is the word rebellion. When the great rebellion occurs, this also marks an event that tells us that Jesus’ coming is near. Societies are now rebelling against world leaders and governments because of the corrupt leadership that is now in power in most countries. This is just the beginning of the great rebellion that will take place.
As I explain very clearly on this web site, no one knows when Jesus will come again. But, His coming could be very close because of the strategic events that are taking place all over the world to bring nations under one power and authority… eventually the power of the Antichrist. Many nations are under the power of the Antichrist’s organizations now without being aware of it.
Sign #6: Great signs will be seen in the heavens… I have seen signs from the heavens that point to the fact that Jesus could come soon. My book explains these signs from heaven.
