To be sure, the world has changed and undergoing massive change. The End of the World as we Know It is the perfect title of this blog post. Since Covid-19 arrived on the global scene in Spring 2020, there has been aggressive changes pushed by many forces. You must be wondering about life, the purpose of life, and what happens when you die.

Jesus Christ spoke about many of these changes. The Bible speaks of the end times and some of the pressures that will come upon mankind. We hope and pray that you will invest a little time into reading the Bible for yourself. It is worth the look.

Some Scriptures that talk about the End Times:

  • Take a moment to read Revelation 6:1-17
    • Second Seal verses 3-4
    • Third Seals verses 5-6
    • Fourth Seal verse 7-8
      • These Scripture texts reveal a lot about how the end times would be. Does this sound familiar?
  • Matthew 24:42-44. Jesus Christ speaks about His return. 

 

Do you Recognize this World?

Since Covid-19 struck this world there has been many changes. Attempts to change history, culture, and other parts of society. There has even been attacks on God Himself. Confusion on gender has been in the forefront of everyday news, and violence is happening daily.

Do you see the changes?

This was also predicted by leaders in the First Century Church. Peter the Apostle and Paul the Apostle both made predictions. A few of their predictions are as follows:

Peter – 

Know this first of all, that in the last days mockers will come with their mocking, following after their own lusts, and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue just as they were from the beginning of creation.” – 2 Peter 3:3-4

Paul – 

“But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, slanderers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding to a form of godliness although they have denied its power; avoid such people as these. For among them are those who slip into households and captivate weak women weighed down with sins, led on by various impulses, always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, men of depraved mind, worthless in regard to the faith.” – 2 Timothy 3:1-8

You must ask yourself how Jesus Christ, Peter, Paul and John all described the end times with clarity. At the very least, invest a few hours to investigate what they said. Not for us — for your future.

How Jesus Christ Saves

God loves you. He chose to send Jesus Christ to provide a way for you to have eternal life. The alternative is the second death spoken of in Revelation 21:8.

“But for the cowardly, and unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and sexually immoral persons, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”

The Bible clearly states the fact of a Second Death. Are you ready to face the Lord? Do you fall within any of the categories described in this verse?

Jesus Christ died on the Cross of Calvary for your sin, our sin and the worlds sin. Everyone has the opportunity to overcome sin and be forgiven. The key is being “Born Again” while you live on Earth. 

It may sound that a strange term, but Jesus Christ clearly said that you must be born again.

Look at this Scripture from the Gospel of John. Read John 3:1-15. This Scripture proceeds the verse that shows up at football games, is listed on posts and mentioned by many Christians. Yes, John 3:16!

Some of the highlights of John 3:1-15 are as follows:

Jesus responded and said to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, unless someone is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

  • If you are not born again, you cannot _________ the kingdom of God.
  • The kingdom exists — you just cannot see it. Christian’s can and do.

Jesus answered, Truly, truly, I say to you, unless someone is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.”

  • Unless someone is born of water and the Spirit, he _______  enter the kingdom of God.
  • Christians can enter the kingdom of God. Unbelieving cannot enter.

As stated, these scriptures proceeds John 3:16. This verse describes the mercy of God. His love was poured out graciously upon mankind.

For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life.”

Jesus Christ is not referring to an intellectual belief. He is referring to a life-changing belief. A transformation by the power of the Holy Spirit. Being born again to a living hope of eternal life.

Read Acts 2:36-39

We are praying for your salvation and peace.
