In the 70s I got so tired of all the pop religion and end of the world false prophets that I wrote it all off, deciding Christ had waited 2000 years, and He might very well wait another 2000, but now I’m starting to rethink the whole thing. The way things are shaping up in the Middle East, and the speed that this world is being turned over to a reprobate mind has me convinced we are teetering on the edge of the second coming, the new Jerusalem and the end of Islam.
It’s interesting because while there are many things that have happened that can convince someone Scripturally that the end is near, like Israel becoming a nation, it’s the other developments that have me more convinced that it’s close.
Our world is primed for a lying deceiver and sin and immorality are running rampant in ways they never had before.
Technology has come to the place where it’s almost beyond our control, and it is making it more than possible for one powerful leader to take absolute control over even remote areas, in ways that were not possible a couple decades ago.
