Converging Signs and Rejection of Truth - Are we ready for the return of Jesus Christ? - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

For the past 50 to 60 years significant ecological, economic, political and technological events or ‘signs’ have been occurring with increasing regularity and intensity in both the natural and the spiritual realms. They are happening on a world-wide basis and I believe that they provide insight into both the present and the future. In the struggle to find suitable adjectives to describe them, the media have been using words like: ‘unprecedented’, ‘of biblical proportions’, ‘catastrophic’, ‘apocalyptic’ or even ‘Armageddon’. Never before in the entire history of the world have we seen such a convergence of ‘signs’ all occurring at the same time. In common with many other Christians, I believe that these ‘signs’ indicate that we have now entered the last of the last days as described in the Bible and the final lead-up to the greatest event the world has ever seen. The return of the Lord Jesus Christ.There is no doubt that a convergence of events is taking place in the natural and spiritual realms that I believe will culminate with the money system having a huge role to play during what the Bible calls the last days. This will be a time when, according to the book of Revelation, a man called the anti-Christ (meaning in place of Christ), will be able to rise to the world stage, declare himself to be God, receive worship from all people groups and gain absolute power over all the nations just before Jesus comes. This can only be achieved through the establishment of physical and spiritual control of the political and monetary systems. This authoritarian rule will initially appear to be benevolent but will end up being totalitarian.I believe that only the Bible can shed a true light on all that is happening throughout the world today. Only the Bible can speak into the events taking place both in the natural and in the spiritual. Only these ancient prophetic scriptures can bring full enlightenment and awareness about what lies ahead. One thing is sure, as the world continues on its current trajectory: truth looks likely to continue to become the major casualty in a post-modern society that rejects the concept that anything can be absolute.Graham Bridger
