The vast majority of Americans have an attitude of indifference when it comes to the Return of Christ and Bible prophecy. They reason it has been 2,000 years and Jesus has not returned so what's the big deal? In fact, the world is experiencing several things prophesied in the Word of God to occur in the last days and it is sad that most are unaware of the importance of these events. For example, the return of the Jews to their land for a starter. Never in history has a people been deported from their homeland, remained separated from it for more than 200 years and then returned and reconstituted as a nation once again. But, the Jews did it! The ancient prophets wrote about this very event over and over again in the Old Testament and Jesus spoke of it as well in the New.
What about the prophecy concerning a coming Islamic invasion of Israel as recorded in Ezekiel chapters 38-39. We read about ancient countries but as we put their modern names to the places we are shocked that it reads like today's headlines!
What about the prophecy of everyone needing a Mark in order to buy or sell, to survive in the end times? Revelation 13:16-18 is clear that without this Mark there will be no access to goods and services needed to survive. No one could imagine years ago how everyone could be marked and monitored until the explosion in technology occurred in our time.
These are only a few of many, many prophecies that have been given to those who are wise, watchful and waiting for the coming of Christ, and each of these scream it is near.
So, do we ignore the words of warning that we are in the last days or do we heed these words? The decision is yours and yours alone to make. I am praying today you either have or will choose life in Jesus Christ...TODAY!
