End Times Prophecy

End Times Prophecy

A war over worship is coming! We are entering the last great conflict - A battle between the laws of men and the precepts of Jehovah. Between Bible truth and the religion of fable and tradition! "Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision."(Joel 3:14)
The end times are here and Bible prophecy is fast being fulfilled. "The hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth." (Rev 3:10) will soon be upon us, and all who are not firmly established upon God's Word and the righteousness of Jesus Christ will be deceived and overcome. Satan "works with all power and signs and lying wonders .. with all deceivableness of unrighteousness" (2 Thess. 2:9-10) to gain control of mankind, and his deceptions will increase right up to the very end.
Jesus Christ is at the center of end times Bible prophecy. He is our righteousness and salvation. He is the truth. And Revelation 14:12 tells us that the saints are not those who merely have faith IN Jesus. But those who 'keep the commandments of God and the faith OF Jesus'. In other words, Jesus' faith is being lived out in their lives.
IS CHRIST LIVING IN YOU? (Galatians 2:20) ARE YOU CLOTHED WITH HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS?
Anyone who thinks they can get past Satan's deceptions without the truth of Christ and His righteousness are sorely mistaken. Only those who are earnestly seeking a knowledge of the truth and are striving to purify their souls through obedience, being doers of God's Word, will find in Jehovah, a sure defense. "Because thou hast kept the word of My patience, I also will keep thee." (Rev 3:10), is Christ's promise. The final events are upon us friends. It's time to turn from our sins and submit our lives fully to Jesus Christ.
Man of Sin"Now is the time when we should closely connect with Jesus, that we may be hid under His wings when the fierceness of God's wrath is poured upon the world. We have wandered away from the old Biblical landmarks. Let us return. If the Lord be God, serve Him; if Baal, serve him. Which side will you be on?" (Testimonies for the Church, Vol.5, p 137)
We are here to bring you the much needed truth about Bible prophecy and the latest news relating to the end times.The Great ControversyThis world is on the very edge of eternity and we are soon to see that "great and dreadful day of the Lord", when Jesus Christ with all His holy angels will burst upon the world with great glory to claim what is rightfully His. Are you saved? See What Must I do to be Saved?. Here you will not only be shown the truth about Bible prophecy and the end times, you will also receive wise council as to how you should be living in these last days, just before the second coming of Jesus.
Isaiah 58:1 ...'Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.'
"In our work, we need men of moral independence, uncontaminated and unshackled, so that when a principle of religion or duty is at stake they will stand firm in defense of the truth. We need men who will not hold their peace when they see evils coming in and wrongs being done. We need men who will refuse to give consent by silence to unjust actions." (E.White, Manuscript Releases, Vol.9, Letter 116, 1905)
In studying Bible prophecy, you will find that it contains some of the most solemn warnings, and we are here to give those warnings to the world. We are truly living in the end times now, and as the Bible reveals in Revelation 12, Satan has come down to this earth with "great fury" knowing that his time is short, and he is using all his power to deceive us and keep us from Jesus Christ. We MUST make every effort to press into God's Kingdom and through the righteousness of Christ we can overcome the evil one. Here at end times prophecy we will not be moved by worldly excitement or false revivals, because we have our minds fixed within the Heavenly sanctuary, where Jesus resides. This is a time of great spiritual peril, and we are called to turn away from sin and live holy lives for our Creator God.

Time to Get Ready

End TimeWe are in the last hour, the day of the Lord is at hand, and it is time to get ready. The final calls are going out to the world. God is preparing to pour out His Spirit upon His people and we must be ernest in praying for that Spirit to fall upon us. We must depart from sin, humble our hearts and fall before the One who can save us, our Lord, Saviour and soon coming King, Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God. So many professing Christians do not know the urgency of the situation. The whole theme of the Bible is of urgency to turn to God and turn away from sin, especially in these end times we live in.
"All who profess to be the children of God need now to realize that we are living in perilous times. The end of all things is near at hand. The signs are rapidly fulfilling, yet it would seem that but few realize that the day of the Lord is coming swiftly, silently as a thief in the night. Many are saying "peace and safety". Unless they are watching for their Lord, they will be taken as in a snare." (E.G.White, Last Day Events, P.18)

Israel in the End Times

What is end times prophecy about? Is it all about the nation of Israel like so many prophecy students and teachers believe? No, Bible prophecy is given for the benefit of ALL people, to warn us of things to come, not in Israel, but the WHOLE world. The problem is, these prophecy teachers who look to the nation of Israel for the fulfillment of end time prophecy ignore the plain truth that is taught in the New Testament, that the literal nation of Israel are no longer God's special chosen nation. For we are now "ALL ONE IN CHRIST JESUS."
You CANNOT understand Bible prophecy until you take your eyes off literal Israel!
It was the Roman Catholic Jesuits who started this false teaching that the fulfillment of end time Bible prophecy would happen with the nation of Israel, and the reason they did this was because the Bible reveals the Roman Catholic Church as the main antichrist system. A truth which all the brave Protestant reformers knew about and proclaimed. So the Jesuits re-interpreted prophecy, taking the focus off the Roman Catholic Church and placing the focus of the end times on the literal nation of Israel. And the majority of prophecy students today have fallen for the lie. But the truth is, the chosen people of God are now those who are IN Jesus Christ, whether they be Jew or Gentile. Please see the great study above concerning Israel in the End Times for the truth of this important and misunderstood subject.

End Time Signs

The world is buckling under great pressure. Earthquakes, tsunamis, wildfires, tornadoes, mass animals dying. These things are just a fraction of the destroying forces raging throughout our world. Nature isn't the only thing going wrong in our world today. Everything else seems to be going horribly wrong too. War, terrorism, economic trouble, increase in sin and Godlessness. Confusion and strife reigns everywhere in this world today. God is withdrawing His Spirit from the earth ready for the last days and Satan is gaining more and more control.
The world is in such a mess these days that even non religious people are starting to think what is going on and what will become of all this. And what is the answer? Why are all these things happening in our day? The answer can only be found through a source that the majority of people have forgotten about ... THE BIBLE! When you study the Word of God you will see that these things were prophesied to happen a long time ago. Then the mystery begins to unfold and our eyes begin to open as to why this world is in such a terrible state.

"Is there life after death?"

Question: "Is there life after death?"

Answer:
The existence of life after death is a universal question. Job speaks for all of us by stating, “Man born of woman is of few days and full of trouble. He springs up like a flower and withers away; like a fleeting shadow, he does not endure....If a man dies, will he live again?” (Job 14:1-2, 14). Like Job, all of us have been challenged by this question. Exactly what happens to us after we die? Do we simply cease to exist? Is life a revolving door of departing and returning to earth in order to eventually achieve personal greatness? Does everyone go to the same place, or do we go to different places? Is there really a heaven and hell?

The Bible tells us that there is not only life after death, but eternal life so glorious that “no eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him” (1 Corinthians 2:9). Jesus Christ, God in the flesh, came to the earth to give us this gift of eternal life. “But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5). Jesus took on the punishment that all of us deserve and sacrificed His life to pay the penalty for our sin. Three days later, He proved Himself victorious over death by rising from the grave. He remained on the earth for forty days and was witnessed by hundreds before ascending to heaven. Romans 4:25 says, “He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.”

The resurrection of the Christ is a well-documented event. The apostle Paul challenged people to question eyewitnesses for its validity, and no one was able to contest its truth. The resurrection is the cornerstone of the Christian faith. Because Christ was raised from the dead, we can have faith that we, too, will be resurrected. The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the ultimate proof of life after death. Christ was only the first of a great harvest of those who will be raised to life again. Physical death came through one man, Adam, to whom we are all related. But all who have been adopted into God's family through faith in Jesus Christ will be given new life (1 Corinthians 15:20-22). Just as God raised up Jesus' body, so will our bodies be resurrected upon Jesus' return (1 Corinthians 6:14).

Although we will all be eventually resurrected, not everyone will go to heaven. A choice must be made by each person in this life, and this choice will determine one’s eternal destination. The Bible says that it is appointed for us to die only once, and after that will come judgment (Hebrews 9:27). Those who have been made righteous by faith in Christ will go into eternal life in heaven, but those who reject Christ as Savior will be sent to eternal punishment in hell (Matthew 25:46). Hell, like heaven, is not simply a state of existence, but a literal place. It is a place where the unrighteous will experience never-ending, eternal wrath from God. Hell is described as a bottomless pit (Luke 8:31; Revelation 9:1) and a lake of fire, burning with sulfur, where the inhabitants will be tormented day and night forever and ever (Revelation 20:10). In hell, there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, indicating intense grief and anger (Matthew 13:42).

God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but desires them to turn from their wicked ways so that they can live (Ezekiel 33:11). But He will not force us into submission; if we choose to reject Him, He accepts our decision to live eternally apart from Him. Life on earth is a test, a preparation for what is to come. For believers, life after death is eternal life in heaven with God. For unbelievers, life after death is eternity in the lake of fire. How can we receive eternal life after death and avoid an eternity in the lake of fire? There is only one way—through faith and trust in Jesus Christ. Jesus said, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die...” (John 11:25-26).

The free gift of eternal life is available to all. “Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on him” (John 3:36). We will not be given the opportunity to accept God’s gift of salvation after death. Our eternal destination is determined in our earthly lifetimes by our reception or rejection of Jesus Christ. “I tell you, now is the time of God's favor, now is the day of salvation” (2 Corinthians 6:2). If we trust the death of Jesus Christ as the full payment for our sin against God, we are guaranteed not only a meaningful life on earth, but also eternal life after death, in the glorious presence of Christ.
