KNOWING THE SIGNS OF THE END TIME
Gradually we are in the third Sunday of the eleventh month(November) and prophetically the No. 11 stands for Judgement. So, this afternoon I want to talk to you about the end time.
Theme : Knowing the signs of the end time
First of all, God's Grace has been on our side and I always define Grace as the partiality of God.
The 1st world War ended in the eleventh month and I pray all your wars ends today.
Mathematicians defines sign as an indicator against some thing negatives or positives. Meaning signs could be either right or wrong. Sign therefore cannot be interpretated literally.
The Greek word for end time is eschatos
In Joel 2:28-32
28
I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your old men will dream dreams,
your young men will see visions.
Even on my servants, both men and women,
29
I will pour out my Spirit in those days.
I will show wonders in the heavens
30
and on the earth,
blood and fire and billows of smoke.
The sun will be turned to darkness
31
and the moon to blood
before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the
LORD.
And everyone who calls
32
on the name of the
LORD will be saved;
for on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem
there will be deliverance,
as the LORD has said,
even among the survivors
whom the LORD calls
And
Mark 13:7
When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.
The above scripture tell us tho the signs on earth to show the end time may keep coming but we should stay put till the sign of Heaven appears.
Revelation 20 :1-7
The Thousand Years
1 And I saw an angel down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain.
2 He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years.
3 He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time.4. I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony about Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
5 (The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended.) This is the first resurrection.
6 Blessed and holy are those who share in the first resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him for a thousand years.
7 When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison
The above is a account of what will happen on the judgement day.
1st the Pre Millenniumist who believes God will rule for 1000 years as a king, and Satan will be in chains for all the 1000 years.
Secondly the Post Millenniumist who says, signs should not be interpreted literally and on the last days, Evil and good will leave together and as they live the good ones will eventually turn the evil ones to good just as the Apocalyptic literature by Daniel... So we should make sure to have our Names in the lamps of God. We should always preach the word of God always to others.
Lastly Acts 1:6-8
6 Then they gathered around him and asked him, “Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?”
7 He said to them: “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. 8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
So let me ask you this
Are you ready to set for Kingdom?
Beware of false prophets and get the power of the Holy Spirit to help you know the true signs of the last day. We should encourage 1 another and endured each other with the power of the Holy Spirit.
May the Good Lord protect and guide you. And May the Lord fill us with the Holy Spirit so we don't find wanting on the last day. Amen
Thanks for your visit
You are awesome
