This question has perplexed thinkers throughout history. In fact, right before His death, Jesus’ disciples questioned Him about this very thing. In Matthew 24:3, they asked, “When shall these things be? And what shall be the sign of Thy coming, and of the end of the world?” The disciples were gathered on the Mount of Olives, overlooking the temple of Jerusalem. In their minds, the destruction of Jerusalem and the end of the world would happen simultaneously. Jesus had talked about the destruction of Jerusalem, and they wanted to know more. As Jesus answered their questions, He shared events that would transpire before His return. Don't be scared by the signs of His soon coming. Jesus offers hope. He offers salvation. He offers you a relationship with Him that will protect you from deception. His heart longs for you to make the decision to choose Him. He came to this earth and became the Son of Man to show us the way to live so that we could join Him for eternity. As you discover Bible prophecy and discern the signs of Christ’s soon return, would you like to acknowledge, “Yes, Jesus, I believe You are coming soon”? Do you want to be ready for the great day of His coming? Is there anything in your life that would keep you from being ready? It’s time to surrender that thing to Jesus. It’s time to accept His invitation of hope and peace. Have questions? Need prayer? Visit us at http://bible.awr.org Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6eEtGyfJeJo

Ten years ago, Cami Oetman had a real encounter with God that would change her life forever. She was a successful entrepreneur at the time, and the transition wasn't easy. However, the truth Cami will share in this series was so compelling that she knew every human being in the world should experience the love of Jesus as she had. Within three years, she had preached 350 Bible presentations. Today, as a vice president for Adventist World Radio, Cami travels the world documenting the miracles that take place when people give their hearts to Jesus. It may seem difficult to imagine yourself understanding Bible prophecy. Cami couldn’t either. She had spent two decades in the modeling world—in front of and behind the camera. She had also used her master’s degree in social work to care for hospice patients. She then started a successful retail business. But no one can predict how they will react when they have a real experience with God! THE PREDICTION
Have you ever longed to turn the pages of time and peer into what lies ahead? Have the current conditions of this world ever made you wonder how this world began and how it will all end in the future? Well, fortunately, you don't have to stumble through life aimlessly. In the Bible, God has given remarkable prophecies that can provide you with real answers, shedding light on the meaning of our lives and the conditions of this world right before the end. The prophecies of the Bible pull back the curtain from the spiritual world, revealing an intense, invisible battle between God and Satan, and it's centered on the issue: who will you worship?

In this video, Pastor Ted Wilson expresses our need to get ready for the day #Jesus returns. During these last several months we have seen crises hit, one right after another, in an unprecedented way. Global #disasters, fires, the #pandemic, civil unrest, explosions, earthquakes and more all remind us that these are unusual times. And just this week, more fires broke out in the western part of the United States. As unsettling as the many recent events are we should not be surprised. Disasters and more have been happening for years, but they now seem to be coming in succession more rapidly. While on earth, Jesus Himself told us what to expect in the last days. In Luke 21:25-28 we read, “And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring; men’s hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.” Let’s notice for a moment the #signs given in this passage: 1) “signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars.” Whenever these heavenly signs are mentioned in the New Testament, the sun-moon-stars sequence is the same. This fact suggests a very specific fulfillment to this #prophecy, and as Seventh-day #Adventists, we believe these signs were fulfilled by the “Dark Day" of May 19, 1780 and the Leonid meteor shower of November 13, 1833. 2) “distress of nations, with perplexity.” While there have certainly been wars throughout history, the timing of this indicates a distress of a more global nature and may refer to the world wars of the twentieth century. 3) “the sea and the waves roaring.” This could certainly refer to the increasing intensity of the destruction brought by sea-based natural disasters such as tsunamis, typhoons, and hurricanes. 4) “men’s hearts failing them from fear.” A new kind of fear seems to have arisen with the rise of terrorism along with the real uncertainties we are experiencing in the 21st century. But, praise God, we are not left in a state of fear and uncertainty! Reading on in this passage found in Luke 21, verse 27: “Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.” And then, in verse 28, we read this marvelous promise: “Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.” Jesus is coming very, very soon. It is time, like never before, to be encouraged and to get ready for His soon return. Now is the time to let our lights shine for Him. I encourage you to #pray for God’s guidance and direction in how best you can reach others for Him. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPdj-Q8YDNo
