[3 of 5] DO YOU WANT TO HEAR ABOUT THE FUTURE? Other signs the Bible gives for us to know we're in the last days, is the push for a one world government, religion, and economy, with its big-brother society, persecution of God's people across the whole planet, figures like the Antichrist and False Prophet rising, the technology developed to control the buying and selling across our entire world, and some Mark of the Beast system to identify people with something put on their right hand and forehead. Again, God is not going to tell us the day or hour because we'd probably goof off until the time comes. However, He is telling us when it's close; not so we can prepare for horrible times but instead, it’s to encourage us that the time is near when we get to see Jesus! If we love Him, aren't we longing to see Him? God knows we are longing to be with Christ so all these prophecies are His way of saying, "Hey, Jesus will be there to rescue you soon!" Why would we run from that? I want to see Him, say thank you, and hopefully give Him a big hug. And I want to have something I've done for Him to lay at his feet. I can't wait to be part of Jesus' Millennial Kingdom! I also want to see and be a part of the New Heavens and Earth. Why wouldn't we want to hear all the great Bible prophecy, which tells us the time is close (again, without letting us the day and hour)?
