Glorious Christ is Coming Coon - Signs of the Lord’s Coming

>> Sunday, March 28, 2010

Concerning the signs of the Lord’s coming, the Bible says: There will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. The fig tree branch becomes tender and puts forth leaves. (This signifies the restoration of Israel and, in a deeper spiritual sense, the rebuilding of the true kingdom of Israel by the Holy Spirit. It also refers to the restoration of the truth, testimony and faith of the pristine church). Pentecostal grace will be widespread (the Holy Spirit will be poured out on all believers who will be built up a spiritual house). False prophets (false preachers who oppose the precious blood, the truth, or the Holy Spirit) will rise up and deceive many. Many believers will be offended and turn away from the faith. The love of many will grow cold, and many will fall away. There will be false teachers who will secretly introduce destructive heresies (distorted truths), even denying the Lord who bought them. Some will give heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons. Scoffers will come and say, “Where is the promise of His coming?”

Lawlessness will abound. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. Believers who really love the Lord will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and they will be hated by all nations. But the gospel will be preached in the whole world, and then the end will come. There will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken. People will be eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, planting, and building… These signs are being fulfilled in this generation whose wickedness, adultery and perversity have reached new heights. As these things continue to happen, we know that the Lord’s coming is near. Behold, the Lord of judgment is at the door! One more step and He will come in!

Glorious Christ is Coming Coon - Jesus is Coming Coon

The glorious coming of the Lord Jesus is the climax of His salvation. Before He was crucified, Jesus told His disciples, “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death, and deliver Him to the Gentiles to mock and to scourge and to crucify. And the third day He will rise again” (Matt. 20:18–19). True enough, these words were later fulfilled. Then, before the Lord Jesus left His disciples, He comforted them, saying: “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also” (John 14:1–3). Jesus said that He would go to the Father to prepare a place for those who believe in Him, and that He would come back to receive them into glory.
