Mark 13:7 And when ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet. 8 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.
In addition to the various upheavals in nature, we are facing the prospect of national unrest, because of the sharp divide in perspectives as it pertains to the handling of the many variants that are wreaking havoc across the nation. Could it be just a coincidence, that so many distresses are converging at the same time? Or is it a harbinger of something very ominous on the horizon?
Sooner or later persons will have to conclude that the troubles that are coming upon the world are not mere temporary aberrations, but are the fulfillment of that which is written in the Bible. Even though many in the secular realm may hate to admit it, yet it’s a fact that the frequency and intensity of events over the past two decades are very abnormal, even for our world, which has seen its share of wars and calamities.
Like the Philistines, who were at a loss for reasons, why adversities and destructions piled upon them, some experts in our day have unwittingly tried to explain current events along strictly scientific lines, without referencing those apocalyptic prophecies given in the Bible, which plainly state that current events do portend a cataclysmic end to normalcy, as we know it.
1st Samuel 6:3 And they said, If ye send away the ark of the God of Israel, send it not empty; but in any wise return him a trespass offering: then ye shall be healed, and it shall be known to you why his hand is not removed from you. 4 Then said they, What shall be the trespass offering which we shall return to him? They answered, Five golden emerods, and five golden mice, according to the number of the lords of the Philistines: for one plague was on you all, and on your lords.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. Good night” and God bless!
