    Signs of the End Times

  2. Rebirth of Israel as a Nation The rebirth of Israel as an independent nation in 1948 is one of the most significant events in world history. Never before has an entire race of people who where scattered and assimilated into nations throughout the world came back together after the formation and rebirth of their nation again in one day. “‘Who has ever seen or heard of anything as strange as this? Has a nation ever been born in a single day? Has a country ever come forth in a mere moment? But by the time Jerusalem’s birth pains begin, the baby will be born; the nation will come forth. Would I ever bring this nation to the point of birth and then not deliver it?’ asks the Lord. ‘No! I would never keep this nation from being born,’ says your God.” Isaiah 66:8-9
  3. Rebirth of Israel as a Nation This is exactly what happened on May 14, 1948. Having been brought to the brink of extinction by the horrors of the Holocaust, facing persecution around the world, and surrounded by their enemies, the Jewish people gathered together in Israel and declared themselves a nation in a single day. The United States recognized Israel as a nation on that same day, and Israel’s victories in the wars since have solidified their place among the nations of the world. Even so, when you see these things happening, you know that the kingdom of God is near. Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. Luke 21:31-32
  4. Jerusalem under Israel Control On June 7, 1967, known as the Six Day War, Israeli Paratroopers stormed the Lion Gate of the old city of Jerusalem, entered the city, and moved quickly onto the Temple Mount with great emotion. For the first time in almost 2000 years Israel reclaimed this most sacred piece of real estate in Judaism and fulfilling biblical prophecy. “They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.” Luke 21:24
  5. Gathering of the Jews "I will bring you from the nations and gather you from the countries where you have been scattered -- with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm and with outpoured wrath.“ Ezekiel 20:34 "Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bring your children from the east and gather you from the west. I will say to the north, `Give them up!' and to the south, `Do not hold them back.' Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth..." Isaiah 43:5-6 The first returning Jews to Palestine came primarily from eastern Arab countries. The next major movement came from the western countries of Europe, especially Germany. Then they came in great numbers from Russia (north) during the end of the 1980's. The last great migrations of Jews returning to Israel came from Ethiopia in the south. This precise order of return was predicted by Isaiah the prophet.
  6. Knowledge Explosion In the past 100 years there has been a literal explosion in the increase of knowledge. The invention of electricity, automobiles, airplanes, satellites, nuclear weapons, computers and so much more have all taken place in our generation. Knowledge is now presently doubling every twenty-two months. But you, Daniel, keep this prophecy a secret; seal up the book until the time of the end, when many will rush here and there, and knowledge will increase.” Daniel 12:4
  7. Invention of Modern Media And for three and a half days, all peoples, tribes, languages, and nations will stare at their bodies. No one will be allowed to bury them. 10 All the people who belong to this world will gloat over them and give presents to each other to celebrate the death of the two prophets who had tormented them. Revelation 11:9-10 It was not until 1950 and the invention of the TV and Satellites was mankind able to see an event happen in real time from anywhere in the world!
  8. Animals, Birds, and Fish Dying I will sweep away both men and animals; I will sweep away the birds of the air and the fish of the sea. The wicked will have only heaps of rubble when I cut off man from the face of the earth," declares the LORD. Zephaniah 1:3 There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven. Luke 21:11
  9. Mass Animals, Birds, and Fish Dying Tens of thousands of tons of Herring found dead in Kolgrafafjordur, Iceland. Thousands of Tilapia Fish found dead in Tempe Town Lake, Arizona. 200+ Ducks found dead on 2 ponds in Nowra, Australia. Thousands of dead Lobsters, Starfish, Clams and Skates wash ashore in Massachusetts. 720,000 Chickens to be killed due to Bird Flu in Mexico. 22 dead Whales found on the east coast of the Falklands. About 600 dead penguins washed up on Uruguay's Atlantic coast.Mass animal, bird and sea creatures are dying all over the world daily!
  10. Geological Events Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains. Matthew 24:7-8 Research shows that Earthquakes have been increasing each year in activity and intensity all over the world.
  11. Geological Events The sky was rolled up like a scroll, and all of the mountains and islands were moved from their places. ~Revelation 6:14 Behold, the LORD makes the earth empty, and makes it waste, and turns it upside down, and scatters abroad its inhabitants. ~Isaiah 24:1 The earth is violently broken, The earth is split open, The earth is shaken exceedingly. The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard….. ~ Isaiah 24:19-20 The magnetic pole has accelerated since 1990 and has been moving about 40 miles per year. The next pole shift is likely to occur at the return of the Lord Jesus Christ to the earth at the battle of Armageddon as portrayed in Revelation. The events described during the end times are very much like what happens during a pole shift.
  12. Geological Events There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven. Luke 21:11 We are seeing an increase in record breaking extreme weather events including bigger and stronger hurricanes, tornados, cold weather, heat waves, floods and other devastating storm all over the world.
  13. Famine and Disease Famine and disease is increasing all over the world cause by drought, flooding, unfavorable weather conditions, plant disease, insect infestation, war, and overpopulation. Over 70 million died of starvation and disease in the 20th century. 925 Million people worldwide go hungry every day and 5 Million children will die of hunger worldwide annually . There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven. Luke 21:11
  14. Wars and Rumors of Wars No period in human history has witnessed the escalation of wars as has the 20th Century. Over 100 million people have been killed in wars since the 20th Century began. The increase in human knowledge and the invention of nuclear weapons has made modern day warfare more destructive than any other period in the history of mankind. You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Matthew 24:6
  15. Mocking the Truth There is an increasing number of people openly challenging and mocking Christian rights and beliefs. Government officials, the IRS, media, public schools, and higher learning institutions have been limiting the rights of Christians and are persecuting Christians who stand up for their religious rights or beliefs. Most importantly, I want to remind you that in the last days scoffers will come, mocking the truth and following their own desires. 2 Peter 3:3
  16. A Rapid Decline of Character You should know this, Timothy, that in the last days there will be very difficult times. For people will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred. They will be unloving and unforgiving; they will slander others and have no self-control. They will be cruel and hate what is good. They will betray their friends, be reckless, be puffed up with pride, and love pleasure rather than God. They will act religious, but they will reject the power that could make them godly. Stay away from people like that! 2Timothy 3:1-5
  17. Signs in the Heavens The sun will become dark, and the moon will turn blood red before that great and glorious day of the LORD arrives. Acts 2:20
  18. Four Blood Moons The four blood moons have only happen 7 time in 2000 years. The Tetrad happen in 1492 around the time that the Jews where being persecuted and expelled from Spain and they hired Christopher Columbus to find them a new home. Israel became a nation in 1948 and God lit up the sky with the four blood moons. The four blood moons happen again around the time of the six day war when Israel regain Jerusalem as their capital.
  19. Revelation 12 Sign This sign will appear in the heavens above Israel on September 23, 2017. According to scripture this sign will take place during the middle of the Tribulation which is 3 ½ years. A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head. 2 She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth. Revelation 12:1-2
  20. Feast of Trumpets…Rapture? This Feast of Trumpets, a Jewish holiday will be held in September 2013 which is 4 years before the Revelation 12:1 sign that will be displayed above Israel on September 23, 2017. Many Prophetic Bible scholars believe that the rapture of the church could take place during this Jewish holiday. Could it be possible that the rapture might take place soon? The most important thing is that we are ready…..
  21. When Will the Rapture Occur? No prophecy needs to be fulfilled for the rapture to happen. The Rapture of the church could happen at anytime. “Look, I will come as unexpectedly as a thief! Blessed are all who are watching for me……...” Revelation 16:15
  22. Rapture of the Church According to the Lord’s word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. 18 Therefore encourage one another with these words. 1 Thessalonians 4:15-18
  23. Are You Ready to See Our Lord? If you declare with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9
