SIGNS OF CHRIST'S RETURN {Pestilence/ Disease}
CHRIST'S DISCIPLES ASK HIM: _ "What will be the Signs of thy return?"
Christ said, "There Will Be: _ Great Wars; Great Earthquakes; Great Famines; Great PESTILENCE {now}; Great Sights of Terror; and Great Signs in the Heavens." .. {This was straight from the mouth of Christ 2000 years ago} .. .. .. .. .. .. .. (Luke 21:8-11) (Mat.24:1-8) {KJV/ NIV/ AMP Bible Versions}
A letter to my Grandson: _ When I was talking to you and your girlfriend the other day, you asked me what I thought about this Coronavirus, and right off the top of my head, I very quickly replied …. “It is an absolute fulfillment of end day Prophecy, straight from the mouth of Christ.” For Jesus said in (Matthew 24:2,3,6,7) that: “Great Pestilence/Disease
would come just before His Return.” I could tell that it shook you guys, but you were in a
hurry to take care of some business thing, and I didn’t get a chance to explain
the complex details of my statement. I’m so sorry to have scared you, causing
you to think that the Great Terrible Tribulation Time was starting right now. I
need to explain a number of complicated things about the end times. … Christ is coming back two times. The first time
is to take all of His True Believers off the earth to keep us safe from the
Great Tribulation that is coming. He will not set foot on the earth, and only believers
will see Him, “He will come as a thief in
the night” (1st
Thes.5:2, 4). And the world will not know what has happened to the
millions of people that have vanished instantly. Jesus will call believers up
into the clouds to meet Him there (1st Thes.4:16, 17) (1st Cor. 15: 51-53). He
will then take us to His home in heaven. … This is the time that the disciples
were speaking of, Christ’s first return in the clouds
to get His True Church in (Matthew 24:1-3). I want you guys to know that Jesus and God
love you very much, and so do I. This is why Jesus started with this first
statement after the disciples asked Him:
_ “What
will be the Signs of Your Return?” (Mat.24:3, Question- #2). Jesus answered in verse 6 and 7: “You will hear of wars and rumors of wars; see that you are not terrified, for these things must take place first, but the end will not
come yet, not immediately” (Mat.24:6-7, and Luke 21:9-11). He was getting ready to tell them about the
frightening-things that would come before His First Return, and the first
event would be a Very Great War. He was telling them and us, that the time of Great Tribulation that is going to come upon the whole
world, is Not Yet (Rev.3:10 and 1stThess. 5:9-10), but it is drawing near. Right now
God is showing the world that the time
is approaching, and that everyone needs to repent {to be sorry before God for breaking His Laws, and we all have broken them to some
degree} and to give our lives to Jesus, believing that He is God's Son
and the Savior of the world, who died for all our sins, on that cross. There
was a moment of time on the cross that He was dying for me, and another moment
that He was dying for you. The Apostle Peter said: _ “For Christ bare our sins in His own body on the tree (the cross)” (1st Peter
2:24). … I didn't mean to cause
you guys to think that the Horrendous Tribulation was coming right now/immediately.
The time is just growing near. The six signs below have to run their course first. We don't know the
exact timing, but
God says that the last person living of the First-Sign-Generation {WW-1, 1914-1918}
will not all die till all
is fulfilled (Luke 21:32).
God has told us that these things were coming, so we could/can know that Jesus
is indeed God's Son, His Christ, The Savior of the world, who knows all things {past/
present/ future}, and has all power in the heavens/universe, also in all the earth, and is preparing
to return.
Again,
Jesus continuing: _ in (Luke 21:8-11) (Mat.24:1-8), with His first statement, and with all Six Signs: _“You will hear
of wars, and rumors of wars; see that
you are not terrified, for these things must take place first, but the end is Not Yet.” … (Sign #1): “For
Nation shall rise against Nation and Kingdom against Kingdom” {First World War _
(1914-1918), with 28 nations at War, and this was the first time a War was called "A World War"}. … (Sign #2):
“Also, there will be Mighty and Violent
Earthquakes in place after place.”{Chile
1960 largest ever, Alaska 1964, Indonesia 2004, Japan 2011, Soviet Union 1952,
Colombia 1906, Chile 2010, China 1950 (these are the 7-largest-quakes 8.8 to 9.6 measured by man on the
Richter scale)}. … (Sign #3): “And
there will be Great Famines in many places,” {several million died in famines in the 1980's}. … (Sign #4): “And there will be 'GREAT PESTILENCE' (NOW) {plagues: malignant and contagious;
infectious, epidemic diseases; which are deadly and devastating.}” (AMP version)
{Spanish
Flu (year-1918)/ Swine Flu/ West-Nile-Virus/ Bird-Flu/ Cancer-plague/ AIDS/
EBOLA/ SARS/ CORONAVIRUS today}; … (Sign #5):
“and there will be Great SIGHTS OF TERROR; {TERRORIST ATTACKS (09-11-01), etc.}; … (Sign #6):
“and then Great SIGNS in the {Cosmic} HEAVENS.” (Luke 21:25-26 cosmic
heavens: (“There will be signs
in the Sun, moon, and stars.” {We are now seeing: _ sun storms increasing in intensity and number, causing temperatures to rise on all the planets in our solar system {including earth}; and Blood moons increasing, and soon more asteroid moon impacts will come {it is covered with impact craters already}; and the star signs have also started in 1994 when Comet Shoemaker Levy-9
bombarded our solar system's Planet Jupiter [see NASA, and Wikipedia.com]; and we are now seeing many huge GALAXIES COLLIDING in deep space; there will be more detail later}).
Though things seem really bad to us right now, they are just warning-signs/images/short-previews of the totally
global horrendous things to come. Yes, what is coming later will be much
worse than this Coronavirus/COVIN-19. That
is why we don’t want to be left here on earth with non-believers. The Great Tribulation will not come until Israel signs the Covenant with
the Antichrist, {about 6.5 years after the Rapture of Believers} (Dan.9:27). And the apostle Paul tells us that the Antichrist
cannot be revealed until the Holy Spirit in believers is taken out of
the way {in The Rapture}
(2nd Thes.2:1-9 {esp.vs. 7,8}). … But, on the other hand, Jesus could come for all true
Believers [in His first return] at any moment,
because The Rapture is the very ‘next event’ on God’s
Prophetic Calendar. Jesus will take us off the earth to heaven in
the blink of an eye. So as to keep us from the Great Wrath/ Tribulation: …
“For He has not
appointed us unto wrath” (1st Thes.5:9-10), (1st
Cor.15:51-53), (Rev.3:10). We
will then live with God the Father and Christ for about thirteen and a half
years in heaven before
His second return {timing of Gods Feasts (Lev.23: 1-34)}, to set up God's Kingdom on Earth.
… In (1st John 2:2) the apostle John says: _ “Jesus
is the propitiation {the
sacrificial payment} for our sins,
but not for our sins only, but for the sins of the whole world” {that means you
too}. Also in (1st John 5:1) he said: _“Whosoever
believes that Jesus is ‘the Christ’ is born of God.” {The meaning
of the word ‘Christ’ is: “The
Savior of the world” (Matthew 1:21 and John 4:42 state it plainly)} this means that we
are reborn into God’s family when we believe. We are then His children
when we believe that Jesus died for us personally, in our place.
And when He/Jesus comes in the clouds to take His believers off the earth to
heaven {called the Rapture (1stThess.4:13-18) (1stCor.15:51-53)}, in order to keep us from the Great
Tribulation (Rev.3:10)
(1st Thes.5:9), “then we
will forever be safe with the Lord.” Also … Jesus will take all our young
children with us to heaven at that time: {That is, our children, who are too young to understand/ those who have
not reached the age of accountability}. This includes all the young children all over the world, whether the parents are Christian or not (Mat.19:14)
(2nd Sam.12:21-23).
When you who are non Christians: {those who believe in Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism, Shintoism, Atheism, or any of the other religions of the world} see your young children vanish instantly before your eyes, you should then realize that there is but one Creator God: _ Jesus Christ and His Father Almighty God. Because He has told us this was going to happen (1st Thes.4:16, 17) (1st Cor. 15: 51-53). "I and my Father are One", .. "If you have seen Me, you have seen The Father" (John 14:6,8,9).
This makes me feel bad when I thank about non Christians being left behind after the Rapture of the Church, but then when I read in (Revelation 7:9,14) _ "After this I beheld, and lo, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, and peoples, and kindreds, and tongues, stood before the Throne, and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, and with palms in their hands." .. And he said to me these are they that came out of the Great Tribulation, and have washed their robes and made them white in the Blood of the Lamb." .. .. God is going to save an innumerable multitude during the Great Tribulation!, Praise our Loving God for saving these from every nation. These mothers and fathers will be reunited with their children in heaven that were taken to heaven at the Rapture.
There
is something that we all need to know: _ becoming a child of God is an instantaneous thing, as
seen in (Acts 10:44); (“The Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the
word, while Peter was yet speaking”). The very first time/first moment that we truly believe
in our heart that Jesus is God's Son, the Messiah, the Christ, the only Savior
of the world, and 'our very own Savior', we are then instantly passed from eternal
death unto eternal life. [We will still
have a whole lot of growing to do in Christ, to become a strong faithful Christian, but
we are already totally safe in His arms (For Jesus payed it all). And from that moment on, we are never
really the same. “Therefore if anyone
be in Christ they are a new creature/creation: old things are passed away behold,
all things are become new” (2nd Cor. 5:17). ”We then love God and want to please Him. Our heart and spirit
is changed, but we are still not perfect because of our sinful flesh. But it
will be changed also at the time of the Rapture}. We don’t have to be in a church or with a
minister/preacher/priest/or anyone, to give our life to Christ. It does not
matter whether we shout/ talk to Jesus out loud, or whisper, or speak to Him silently
in our heart, or do not even say a word but just truly believe who He is, for He is
everywhere in His-Universe, and He sees, knows, and hears, everything. And
“He
sees the very thoughts and intents of our heart” (Heb.4:12). He
sees our belief, our faith in Him, in our heart, and adopts us instantly as His child in
Jesus. Jesus said: “For God
so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever ‘Believes on Him' shall not perish, but have Everlasting Life” (John 3:16). … Also “Most assuredly, I say unto you, he who hears 'My
Word' {with their heart}
and believes in Him who Sent Me has everlasting
life, and shall not come into condemnation, but has passed from death into life” (John 5:24). After we
believe, God wants us to be baptized to make a public profession of our faith
in Him because this helps spread the faith of Jesus to others. And God wants us
to join a Church to feed on God’s word, to fellowship with other Christians, and
to grow in Christ. We don’t have to do those things, but it is good for us,
making us strong in Jesus, and it pleases God. God loves us and wants us to be his children.
When Christ comes back to earth [His Second Time] we believers will come
back with Him, “and every eye all over the world
will see Him/{and us} in all His
power and glory approaching, and all the nonbelieving peoples of the world will wail and mourn.”
(Rev.1:7) This event is at the very end of the Great Tribulation after the world has had ~13.5 years to turn to Christ, nothing will turn them (Rev.6:12-17).
Christ will set foot on the earth, and defeat all the armies of the world
that are trying to destroy Israel (Zech.12: 1-3). This will end the Great Tribulation. Christ will
then set up His Kingdom on earth, and rule it and all the heavens {even the Highest Heavens and all their
Galaxies} forever and ever.
Now
Perilous Times: Last July, {in 2019} we saw the highest average
world temperature ever recorded in July; Also storms are getting more prevalent
and more powerful as time passes; We have also been seeing mass murders in
numerous places around the world; Crime and Violence
is constantly rising; Rioting is prevalent in our streets; Drugs and Gang murders
are everywhere; and there is Great Political War in our government, {With many politicians not caring for our
country, but only their own agenda of getting votes, to attain power over our
government, to control our country, to manipulate moneys for their own greed, {Many
politicians have gone to Washington with modest finances, but now are
multi-million-heirs.} and now it appears they are trying to destroy Christianity in our nation by promoting the two Greatest Sins against
God.} But why should we be
shocked, those who will murder millions of helpless tiny babies and promote
same-sex-unions are capable of doing anything. (Romans1:24-32) {www.Abortion.statistics:
56 Million per year worldwide} [1.1
million per-year for the USA].
Note: _ Ladies if
you have had an abortion, God wants to forgive you if you will truly repent in your heart {Your sin is nothing like the sin of those who have had a part in the abortion of millions of babies} God knows that you were
taken in by the world’s propaganda: ["that a baby is not alive in the womb"].
But God through the Prophet Isaiah says it is, “for God called me from my mother’s womb” (Isaiah
49.1). Then Luke says so too, “John the Baptist was
filled with the Holy Spirit from within his mother’s Womb” (Luke 1:15) (Luke
1:39-41). I know God says: “Thou shall not kill.” (Exodus
20:13); But God still loves you and
will forgive you, if you truly repent in your heart to God, and ask Him to forgive you in Jesus’
name. God forgave King David for murdering Bathsheba's husband (II-Samuel chapter 12), He can forgive you too. Also, your
baby is in heaven with God right now, and you will get to hold it one day soon.
God takes all babies and small children to heaven when they die, because they
are innocent and have not reached the age of being accountable for their sin. (II-Samuel 12:21-23)
Now, Back to Perilous Times: There is
tremendous suffering with natural and man-made disasters; giant forest fires; earthquakes;
Tsunamis; Volcanoes; Ionosphere/Ozone depletion; and atmospheric contamination; Sea
Life over harvesting; Forest destruction; Ocean contamination killing sea Life;
food contamination and shortages; and trash contamination over our entire planet.
… The Apostle Paul through God’s Holy Spirit saw these times that we live in now, and said: _ “In the
last days Perilous Times will come” (2nd Tim
3:1). Paul listed a large group of sins of the heart that
people would have in our time, all relating to self-centeredness. And with them not
caring for their fellow man, with no real love for others, being filled with
greed and self-gratification. … Also there is
tremendous Turmoil with wars and conflicts over our Planet caused by Greed and the
desire for Power. You can see that sins of the heart led to all
of the crime, violence, and evil. The Signs started 106 years ago, but they are increasing dramatically in number and frequency. This
means that the last person born at that time [1918] is now 102 years old. How much longer can they live? I
have seen a few people live up to around 115 years old, and one woman many
years ago, was reported to have been 121 years old. Scripture indicates that
there will be 13.5 years between the Rapture and Christ’s coming back to earth
to set up His Kingdom {the timing of God's Feasts and the Rapture}. If the Rapture were to occur right now, the 102 year old person in 13.5 years would be 115.5 years old at the start of Christ's Kingdom. We know it is possible for a person to live that long. But if they could live to be 121 years old, then we might have 5.5 years to the Rapture, … but don’t count on it. There
is no prophecy yet to be fulfilled before the Rapture can come. It is the next event on God's Prophetic Calendar. This means that the Rapture could come at any moment/time! …. It is
indeed The Last Days. Jesus said: “When
these Signs Begin, {WW-1, 1914-1918} lift up
your head and look up, for your Redemption draws near” (Luke
21:28). {This is the redemption of our
bodies in the Rapture [Immortality for Christians (1st Cor. 15:51-53)]}.
The signs in the heavens, that we talked about earlier
started with the Great Comet SL-9 Impacts with our planet Jupiter, in
1994 (www.wikipedia.comet SL-9 Impacts.org). it literally turned the scientific
world upside down at the time. The impact energy of the largest piece of SL-9 was 600
times the energy of the world’s total nuclear arsenal detonated simultaneously. Nuclear
War is no longer the most dangerous thing to the existence of mankind. …. But, the
truth of the greatest danger to man is his Great Sins before God. And now
NASA is seeing many Asteroids [Near Earth Objects] crossing earth's
orbit. (Rev.6:13-14) (Rev.8:8-10 / Rev. 9:1).
There will be more impacts and with earth, Revelation says there will be numerous huge ones.
We need to get our lives right with God
through Jesus our Savior, for Jesus said, “No
one comes to God-the-Father .. but-by-Me” (John
14:6). Jesus loved you enough to die for you, you should be willing to give
your life to Him, and if you do, He will protect your soul from evil forever and
remove you from the earth in the Rapture, before the Great Wrath comes. For He said: “I will never leave you nor forsake you” (Hebrews_13:5,6). … “Seek the Lord while He may be found, call upon Him
while He is near.” (Isaiah 55:6) … “For
whosoever shall call (with their heart)
upon the name of the Lord shall be saved (eternal life)” Jesus’ name means “Savior” (Matthew 1:21 and Romans
10:13). Christ wants to give you eternal life, and protect you and your family
forever. “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and
you shall be saved, and your house / household / family” (Acts 16:30-31).
May God Bless You
in Christ Jesus, Amen.
