Are we living in the End Times?
We believe that we are living in “the end times” of this period on earth. We base this belief on biblical prophecy both in the New and Old Testaments. The Bible tells us that four events would transpire to confirm that the end of this period of time was drawing to a close and Christ’s Kingdom on earth would soon be ushered in. These signs are:
- The return of Israel (symbolized by the fig tree) to her homeland (Matthew 24:32)
- The increase of knowledge (Daniel 12:4)
- Rapid transportation innovations (Daniel 12:4) 4. World-wide trouble threatening universal destruction (Matthew 24:21)
Because we have witnessed and are witnessing all the above events today, we believe we stand at the very brink of Christ’s peaceable kingdom on earth. Jesus assures us,
“When you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. I tell you the truth, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.” (Matthew 24:33-34)
Even though we do not know the exact date, the signs are evident that God’s kingdom on earth will be fully established in the near future. The LORD has said, “For the revelation waits for an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay.” (Habakkuk 2:3)
