“And there
shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars, and upon the
earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
V26 Men’s
hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after
those things
which are coming on the earth: for the power of heaven shall be shaken.
V27 And then
shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great joy.”
The third
question, “When will be the end of the world”, i.e., the end of the age, is
best answered in Matthew 24:4-13
“And Jesus
answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
V5 For many
shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
V6 And ye
shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all
these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
V7 For
nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall
be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
V8 All these
are the beginning of sorrows.
V9 then
shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be
hated of all nations for My name’s sake.
V10 And then
shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one
another.
V11 And many
false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
V12 And
because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
V13 But he
that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
V14 And this
gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all
nations; and then shall the end come.”
Take special
note of V12, “And because iniquity shall abound,...”
This is a
key verse for the time we live in.
Iniquity shall abound.
The worst
possible kinds of evil are openly practiced, not only across the world, but
right here in our country and our city.
Wicked, evil, vile, abominable behavior, of all kinds, is not only
tolerated, but in many cases, protected by law.
There has always been iniquity, but not like what has been unleashed in
our generation. We are at the end of the
age."
