"ENDTIMES"

Greetings to you all,

It's my prayer that all is well with you and yours. Do you give much thought to your future? Are you one who sets goals? I'm not thinking about short-term, mid-term, nor long term goals but "Eternal Goals".

" You will be hearing of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not frightened, for those things must take place, but that is not yet the end" (Matt.24:6)

What goes through your mind when you hear the words " End Times " ? Does it strike fear in your heart or a totally different emotion. Please do yourself a favor and store up the Word of God in your heart.

By knowing the Word of God, it will give you much comfort. I've heard it said that knowledge is power, do you believe this?

The disciples that were following him asked Jesus for the sign of his coming and of the end of the age. Jesus' first respond was " See to it that no one misleads you. " If we trust in the Lord and live by His word, the word of God, no other can deceive you. The fact is that whenever we look for the signs, we become very susceptible to being deceived. The Bible makes it clear that there are many " False Prophets " yes even in today's world, with counterfeit signs of spiritual power and authority. As mentioned before, the only sure way to keep from being deceived is to focus on Christ and His words. Don't look for express signs, and don't spend time looking at other people. Look for Christ.

Jesus said that before He returns, the gospel of the Kingdom (The message of Salvation) would be preached throughout the world. What do you think, with radio, tv, internet, etc it's close. This was the disciples mission _ and it is ours today. Jesus talked about the End Times and Final Judgment to show His followers the urgency of spreading the Good News of Salvation to everyone.

Christ will return on God's timetable, not ours. Jesus predicted that, before His return, many believers would be misled by false teachers claiming to have revelations from God.

According to scripture, the one clear sign of Christ's return will be His unmistakable appearance in the clouds, which will be seen by all people.

BE BOLD IN YOUR COMMITMENT. HAVE YOUR HEART AND LIFE READY FOR CHRIST'S RETURN.

" TIMES OF TRIAL SERVE TO SIFT TRUE CHRISTIANS FROM FALSE OR FAIR-WEATHER CHRISTIANS ".

Until Next Time,

Jim
