Signs of Jesus' return: Do you know what they are?

I believe we as a people on earth are very close to the possible beginning of what was spoken in Matt 24 as the first sign of the man Jesus' coming return. I don't believe the church will be raptured or taken away before this starts and that is why I am devoting myself, my heart, my life to the man Jesus, His return, and His reign on Earth. I do believe the rapture will happen when He breaks into the sky with a shout and the sound of a trumpet (24:30-31).

24:4-8 speaks of false christs, wars and rumors of wars, and finally intense natural disasters. We are currently living in an age where people are being mislead by the droves to people who claim to be the christ. If you wonder who, just Google Jose De Jesus and see how many multitudes of people worshipping and following this man. War has escaladed since WWII and you can't read international headlines right now without hearing rumors of war coming between Israel/ US and the Arabic nations of the world. It is so emminent. Our planet is also seeing increased frequency of devastating storms, earthquakes, and rumors of worse to come... Did you hear about the bird flu that could wipe out a 1/3 of the population or how about the missing bees that could pertain to a coming plague? These are common headlines...

I am not sure if there is one war, one storm, or one plague that could say were have endured what Jesus spoke of... yet it would be prudent to understand the next sign to understand the transition. Matt 24: 10-12 speaks of the Great Falling Away or Apostasy (2nd Thess 2:3); other signs spoken are the False Peace of Israel & the Middle East (Dan. 9:27), the Great Harvest (24:14/ Rev 7:9,14;14:15), and counterfeit worldwide peace and safety (1 Thess 5:1-3; Rev 17:6; Matt 24:37-39....

Why should you know all these things? Because I believe that we'll be alive when it occurs and I also believe the next Sign of Jesus' Coming is the most important to identify....



The 3rd major sign of Jesus' return stipulated in Matt 24:15. This is the revelation of the AntiChrist, the son of Perdition, the man of sin... To many Christians, he will be a savior and be deceived because he will bring peace to the Middle East (Daniel 9:27)...but also he will eventually demand worship by setting himself up as God in the holy temple...calling the abomination of desolation. (2nd Thess 2:2-4; Rev 13:11-18).

When this happens the clock starts....3 1/2 years until Jesus returns... Daniel 12:8-12. Then we will see the most amazing & terrifying outpouring of God's wrath on the planet.

Do you know what the Bible says (Luke 21:35)Is your heart ready (Matt 24:13, Luke 21:36) ? Do you have oil(Matt 25)? Do you have an intimate relationship with the man Jesus now?
