The World Isn't Falling Apart, Prophecies Are Falling Into Place

These prophecies speak for themselves. They are coming to pass before our eyes. The News today is almost as a Biblical scroll verifying scriptural prophecies one after the other. The prophetic gateway into Last Days Prophecy was the 1948 restoration of the nation of Israel and regathering of Jews, from all the nations they had been dispersed into, to re-inhabit that land. I visited the new nation shortly after its restoration, with my old friend, Pastor Louis Johnson. We witnessed the miracle of this prophecy first hand.

"And I will be found of you, saith the Lord: and I will turn away your captivity, and I will gather you from all the nations, and from all the places whither I have driven you, saith the Lord; and I will bring you again into the place whence I caused you to be carried away captive." Jer. 29:14. 

Daniel's Prophecy Of The End Times...  rapid transportation, exponential knowledge, a time of trouble, Christians delivered, resurrection and rapture, the prophecy sealed to the end times.

"And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: (Jesus quotes those words in Matt.24 below) and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever. But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased." Dan.12:1-4.

Jesus Unsealed And Opened Daniel's Prophecy
In Matthew 24 
And as (Jesus) sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him .... saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
Then the sorrows increase unto the end.
Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
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.
15 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:)
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. (Jesus quoting Daniel's prophecy).
23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. (The generation in which these things happen).
36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of ma n cometh.
 People's hearts and health will be affected by fear ...
Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth" Luke 2:26.

The Apostle Paul warned of unscriptural, last days conditions and false doctrines even among Christians.
Now the Spirit speaketh ex pressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth." 1 Tim. 4:1-3.
"This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.... these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived." 2 Tim. 3:1-13.
The Apostle Peter warned of lustful scoffers of the last days prophecies of Christ's return to earth...
"Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming?" 2 Peter 3:3-4
There are many other last days, end times prophecies. I have only shared these representative ones up until the resurrection and rapture of Christ's Christians. I will cover the the events following the rapture, the Tribulation Period and Millennial Kingdom prophecies another time. RB
