Signs that are hard to miss.



The timing of the last days has always been a popular topic of study.  I have written on it several times.  As I have said before, some of the stuff in the Bible about the end times is so generic that it is pretty much useless. 

I'm thinking of things like "wars and rumors of wars, earthquakes, etc.  This have gone on throughout history.  But there are a couple of things in Scripture that I think will be hard to miss.  Here is an example I found yesterday.

2 Thessalonians 2:1-4(NKJV)
1Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, 
2not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of £Christ had come. 
3Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of £sin is revealed, the son of perdition, 
4who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits £as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.

So what does that mean?  My take on it is that until we see the anti-Christ sitting in Jerusalem (in the Temple) claiming to be greater than God Himself, I'm not going to be too worried about it. 

Who is the anti-Christ?  I don't know but he will reveal himself by claiming to be greater than God. 

Until then Scripture tells us to be vigilant which I will be but other than that I'm not going to lose any sleep over it.

Faith makes life so much easier!
