Some of these things have already happened, or they are now happening with the worse yet to come. This may be alarming to some especially if you’re not a Christian, and it maybe a tough message to take, but as you can see there are many text for you to read. These are not my words but straight from a study bible.

Jesus says, “When you see all these things, know that it is near, at the very doors.” (Matthew 24:33).
“Therefore you also be ready, for the son of Man is coming at an hour when you do not expect Him.” (Matthew 24:44).
Teach me thy way O Lord and I will walk in thy truth🙏
Amen!!
He is coming.
Yes He is—so awesome!!
You have certainly laid it down Sister. The signs all around us, and yet we still have no eyes to see. Praying for this world and everyone in it.
I know—that’s my prayer also. It seems such a little thing to do, but I have to keep reminding myself there is much power in prayer. I’m praying for many and asking that they will answer favorably to the wooing of the Holy Spirit.
Amen!
Yes the signs are all around us. Let’s do our best by God’s grace to be ready for the soon return of our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ.
Yes, by God’s grace may we all be found ready to meet Him.
