Not Many Wise

Category: The end of the world and how to prepare

How the world will end:

Jesus spoke a lot about the end of the world, but not when it would happen.
He told us some of the things that would happen, the Abomination, the trumpets, and how to prepare for it.
His main point was for us not to get deceived.
Just before Jesus being crucified, he walked away from the temple, signifying that God’s presence was leaving them.
At Jesus’ second coming, or when we die, will Jesus pass us by, or will he come to take us home to heaven?

Persecution and hard times:

Whether it is the end of the world or not, we can go through rough times and persecution.
Everything seems to be against us, but we can overcome these things.
The day of our death, or the end of the world, is to be a separating day, the sheep from the goats.
Are we a sheep or a goat, are we ready to meet God?
