Jesus Christ is Coming

NOAA, Public Domain
This week it is bitterly cold in Chicago.  It seems as if the fall season was skipped and we went directly into winter.  We Christians know why this is happening.  We know that Jesus Christ is coming back soon.  Unfortunately, millions of people don't believe that.  Millions of people believe that this drastic change in weather is being caused by global warming.  There is a great dispute among scientists about this theory.  Most believe, including President Barack Obama that this is being caused by pollution. I am not a scientist, but if indeed it was global warming wouldn't it be hotter? This entire summer in the Midwest was actually very cold.  The last couple of years it has been that way.  So I do not believe these so-called scientists. Jesus Christ is indeed coming.  It is written in the Bible.  Here are other tell-tale signs that Christ's coming is imminent---

Ebola---North Africa has seen an explosion of this deadly disease.  The bible clearly states that in the last days there will be pestilence.  And there are more.  In the Midwest many states are also reporting the retrovirus infecting a lot of school children.  This is just a small example of the diseases plaguing the earth.

Anti-Christians--There is a very brutal campaign going on in the Middle East and Africa against Christians. But Jesus Christ told us that in the last days there would arise the "spirit of anti-Christ."  Many democracies and global institutions are attacking Christians and Christians values.  So this spirit against Christians is expanding.

Disasters, famines, signs in the heavens.  They are all pointing out to what we deeply know. Throughout the ages all of these things have always been with us.  But this time.  All of this feels very different.  We cannot afford not to look at the message of Jesus Christ.  For Christians it is very good news.  For unbelievers it is the worst news they will ever hear.
