The Earth Full Of Violence: Christ's Sign


Jesus said of the Last Days:
No one knows about that day or hour,
Not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.
For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking,
Marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark;
And they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came
And took them all away. (Matthew 24:36-39)

Now the earth was corrupt in God's sight and was full of violence.
God saw how corrupt the earth had become,
For all the people on earth had corrupted their ways.
So God said to Noah,
'I am going to put an end to all people,
For the earth is filled with violence because of them.
I am surely going to destroy both them and the earth.' (Genesis 6:11-13)

The Lord saw how great man's wickedness on the earth had become,
And that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart
Was only evil all the time.
The Lord was grieved that he had made man on the earth,
And his heart was filled with pain.
So the Lord said,
'I will wipe mankind, whom I have created, from the face of the earth—
Men and animals and creatures that move along the ground, and birds of the air--
For I am grieved that I have made them.'
But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord. (Genesis 6:5-8)

Today, our world is filled with violence like Noah's Day.
Today, we have the threat of the unleashing of atomic warfare
Which would be the greatest violence the world has ever seen.
Jesus said of the Last Days, that if those days had not been shortened,
No one would remain living (Matthew 24:22).
Today, as never before, this is a real possibility.

Today, under the deception of Satan, 
The nations of the world have become godless,
And this godlessness is increasing.
Increasing godlessness spawns increasing violence.
They have forsaken God, their only hope of survival.

Today, the nations are hopelessly in debt.
This indebtedness is causing the violence we see in Greece and other nations.
It is the cause of unrest and violence in the USA.

Because the USA has forsaken God, 
There is no way out of it's debt predicament.
Therefore, there will be ever increasing unrest and violence.

This consternation will be ever increasing until the son of Satan, 
The Antichrist is revealed.
He will then present the world with his “solution,” his “mark.”

Today, The unbelieving world has no idea of what lies directly ahead,
But Christ Jesus said that the Spirit would tell Christians what is yet to come.
(John 16:13)
Let him who has an ear, hear what the Spirit is saying, today.
As Christ Jesus said:

Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness
And the anxieties of life,
And that day will close on you unexpectedly like a trap.
For it will come upon all those who live on the face of the whole earth.
Be always on the watch,
And pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen,
And that you may be able to stand before the Son of man. (Luke 21:34-36)
