THE END OF TIME??
MATTHEW 24:1-14
People Listen to me tonight, The End of this
World is much closer than you think!!
But nobody knows when its gonna be!!
I’m afraid many of us could miss the boat because
Our ministers today and I’ve been guilty as well We are steering away from
Preaching against Hell and The End Times!!
We are too busy trying to build a following
And were to afraid were gonna scare off our
tithe payers Or our Love offering givers!!!
Us Evangelists are preaching to please the pastors
And trying to make sure they will let us come back!
Pastors are preaching to tickle the ears of the congregation in fear their message will be to
Harsh for them and they wont come back!!!
Well I have taken a stand, I ain’t preachin to get
To come back any more, I’m gonna preach the
Truth and I’m not gonna waiver from it!
And if I get to come back then that’s all good but
If I don’t then that’s all good too but you’re gonna
Hear the truth while I have a mouth to tell it!!!!
And while I’m here, and God will see to it that
There will be someone to listen to me!!!
Here in the 24th Chapter of Matthew it’s reaching
Out to us, and for the most part there are so many of us that ain’t hearing it!!
There are 24 signs that I am gonna speak about
Here with you tonight!!!! I pray you’ll listen closely,
And know, what to look for and what you’re
Seeing right now as we speak concerning your
Life after this one!!!!!!
And I hope were all prayed up and ready for it!!
Here in VS 4; of our reading it says take heed –
that No Man deceive you!!!
People we are being deceived in our daily lives
Much more than We know!!!!
Deceptions are at an all time high and they’re
so high its scary!
And False Christ’s claiming to be Jesus as we speak!
VS 5; says many shall come in my name saying
I am Christ!!! They’re people all over right now
Saying that they are The Christ!!!!
Vs 23; says: Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo here is Christ or there, believe it not!!
VS. 11; says and many false prophets shall rise and
Shall deceive many.
The 2nd chapter of 2nd peter
Will tell you much about false prophets and
False teachers, please read it and understand it!
VS. 24; says For there shall arise false Christ’s, and
False prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect!!!
#3 WARS & RUMORS OF WARS
Right now as we speak there are numerous wars
And no doubt rumors of wars!! Just not very
Long ago, I heard there were 120 wars going
On at that very moment (about 6 Mos. Ago)
VS. 6 says: And ye shall hear of wars and
Rumors of wars; see that ye be not troubled:
for all these things must come to pass, but
the end Is not yet!!
The fourth thing is famines:
Folks there are people right here in this very state
And this very county and town, that
Are starving to death right this very minute!
VS. 7 Says:
For nation shall rise against nation and kingdom
Against Kingdom and there shall be famines,
Rev. 6; 5 & 6 says:
And when he had opened the third seal, I heard
The third beast say, come and see.
And I Beheld, and lo a black horse; and
He that sat on him had a pair of balances
In his hand.
And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts
Say A measure of wheat for a penny, and three
Measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt
Not the oil and the wine!
This third seal represents inflation and famine and
The balances or scales are speaking of commerce
And Trade.
The word penny represents a days wages. And
The Wheat and Barley were considered necessities
Of life
And this command not hurting the oil and wine
Probably indicates a restriction on the
Effects of the Famine in this early part of
The Tribulation!
Are you beginning to get the picture here??
THE 5TH THING is PESTILENCES
VS. 7 SAYS
For nation shall rise against nation and kingdom
Against kingdom and there shall be famines and pestilence’s,
These are diseases that are coming at the Medical
Professionals so fast they can’t even think of names
For all of them quick enough, Like Mad Cow Disease
And there’s Aids and Hepatitis and the list goes on and on and on!!!!!!!
See this is just the bible being fulfilled right
Before our very eyes!!!
Children these are the end times and Listen!
VS. 7
There shall be famines and pestilence’s, and
#6 earthquakes in divers places!
Not very long ago I heard that in a one month
Period, there were more earthquakes measured in
This period than there had ever been in any period
Since they have been measuring earth-quakes!!
In Revelation Chapter 6:12,13, & 14
Its speaking of the natural disasters of various kinds,
Pretty much telling us that the earth and the heavenly
Bodies will just go into convulsions.
And also the book of Joel chap 2: further predicts many of these judgments in nature as
Signs of the day of the Lord!!!!
#7 anti-Semitism
VS 9 says
Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted and
Shall kill you, and ye shall be hated of all nations
for my names sake!!
There are many countries right now that if you
Even mention the name of Jesus, they will just
Kill you right then and there!!!!
MARK 13:9 SAYS
But take heed to yourselves; for they shall
Deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues
ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony
against them!
VS. 8 says:
All these are the beginning of sorrows!!!
#8 OFFENCES & BETRAYALS
VS. 10 says;
And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another!!
People are offending and betraying each other
And hating one another something fierce today!!
MARK 13:12 SAYS:
Now the brother shall betray the brother to death,
And the Father the Son; and Children shall rise
Up against their parents,
And shall cause them to be put to death!!!
This is happening right under our very noses!!
And this us just further telling us that The End
Time is getting closer and the Bible is closer
To being completely fulfilled!!!!
About the only thing I can see that’s left to be fulfilled folks is the RAPTURE!!!
MATT 18:7 SAYS:
Woe unto the world because of offenses! For
it must needs be that offenses come; but woe
to that man by whom the offense cometh!!
I pray that we aren’t committing offenses and
Betrayal’s!!
If you don’t know God then you don’t need any more woe than you’re already gonna get!!!!
Being cast into eternal darkness and loneliness
Is gonna be bad enough I THINK ANYWAY!
HATRED
Is another one of the many end time signs
Of the coming of Jesus Christ!!
Vs 10 says:
And then shall many be offended, and shall
Betray one another, and shall hate one another!!
FALSE PROPHETS
How many of you have received a prophecy from
Someone that claims to be a prophet, within the last 12 months?
I’ve lost count at how many I have received!
Some have come true and some haven’t!
That tells me that there are as many False prophets
As there are True Prophets!!!
Vs. 11 says:
And many false prophets shall rise, and shall
Deceive many!!!!
Vs 24 says:
For there shall arise false Christ’s, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the
Very Elect!!
2ND PETER 2:9 SAYS:
The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:
See God will deliver his own from the coming
Universal Judgment!!!
LAWLESSNESS – ABOUNDING
VS. 12 says:
And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
DECREASING LOVE
When have you ever seen love in such a decreased
Condition as it is today??
VS. 13
But he that shall endure unto the end, the
Same shall be saved!!
2ND TIMOTHY 2:
VS.1-This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
VS. 2 Listen to this
For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, un-holy.
VS. 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, (irreconcilable) false accusers, incontinent,(slanderers) fierce,(without self control) despisers of those that are good
VS. 4 Traitors, heady, (reckless) high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God!
INCREASED MISSION WORK
Mission work is at an all time high.
VS. 14
And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
Also the gospel is being preached into every crack and crevice of this world by satellite 24 hours a day and seven days a week – AS WE SPEAK!!
ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION
VS. 15 says
When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, whoso readeth, let him understand:
NEW JEWISH NATION IN JUDEA
Ezek. Chap. 37
Daniel 9:27
And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
NEW JEWISH TEMPLE
Vs.15,26 – Rev. 11:1,2 – Dan. 8:9-13
GREAT TRIBULATION
VS. 21
For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be!!
MARTYRDOMS
Vs. 9
Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted and shall kill you; and ye shall be hated of all nations for my names sake!!
Dan. 8;24 – Rev. 7:9-17 11;7 15;2-4
20;4-6
FLIGHT OF JEWS FROM JUDEA
Vs. 16-21
Then let them which be in Judea flee into the mountains:
Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take anything out of his house
Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the Sabbath day:
Increased satanic powers
2 Thess 2:8 - 12
and then shall that wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming.
Even him whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders
And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved
And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie
That they all might be damned who believed not the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
REV. 13 – 16;14 – 19;20
SURFEITING
VS. 38
For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark.
Luke 17;28 – 21;34
SEX CRIMES
THEY DID EAT, THEY DRANK, THEY MARRIED WIVES, THEY WERE GIVEN IN MARRIAGE, UNTIL THE DAY THAT NOAH ENTERED INTO THE ARK AND THE FLOOD CAME, AND DESTROYED THEM ALL.
PROCRASTINATION AND LETHARGY
And know not until the flood came, and took
Them all away; so shall also the coming of the
Son of man be.
Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken and the other left.
Watch therefore; for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
Therefore be ye also ready; for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.
