We seem to be experiencing myriad things happening all at once.
For instance, consider Russia’s ongoing war against Ukraine; and the Middle East being dominated by severe economic protests in Iran, where citizens are clashing with security forces over inflation.
There’s also still instability from the Israel-Hamas conflict from October 7, 2023, that has inflamed regional tensions, and persistent issues such as attacks on US forces in Iraq/Syria, Houthi activities; and internal conflicts in Yemen, all fueled by complex political, sectarian, and economic factors.
Furthermore, we were recently informed of President Trump’s brazen military assault in Venezuela that succeeded in capturing President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, both who are now facing U.S. charges related to cocaine trafficking. Where this situation will be heading is anybody's guess!
In addition to all that, we are constantly hearing about natural disasters of “biblical proportions - fires, floods, tornadoes, hurricanes, tsunamis, earthquakes, volcanic activities, etc. . around the world.
In other words, we are experiencing all the things that are outlined in the Bible: riots, unrest, wars and rumors of wars (i.e., terrorism and/or leaders provoking wars), racism, anti-Semitism, fights and arguments between countries and within families and among brethren; and people simply being evil and committing “mass murders” just to “make a statement”…
The Bible has warned us that these things would happen!
For starters, read the Books of Daniel and Revelation, which tells us that ALL of these things MUST happen to usher in the rise of the Antichrist (i.e., Revelation 12:1-10); and ultimately the return of Yeshua (Revelation 1:7 ("every eye will see him") and Revelation 22:12, 20 ("I come quickly"), and Acts 1:11 ("will come in the same way you saw him go"). Yeshua himself spoke of his return in Matthew 24:30 ("coming on the clouds of heaven") and Matthew 24:44.
Folks, I sincerely believe we are closer than we realize!
The one thing Believers can be assured of is that there IS hope for us; and no matter what happens – because the worst thing that can happen is that we die … and if we do, the moment we open our eyes again (not immediately, but in Elohim’s timing), we will be looking upon the Face of Yeshua (2 Cor. 5:8) and facing LIFE ETERNAL (Please see my article.)
