Climate Change? or Destruction of the earth (Revelation 11:18)?

In recent years and more so today, ‘Climate Change’ is being attributed to all the severe weather patterns and catastrophes around the world: severe hurricanes in the Atlantic, Pacific; snow falls in the height of summer; record breaking hot temperatures, flash floods, volcanos, earth quakes and the list goes on.

Is this sign of the coming end of years?

Surely, as compared to the past, in this present time these sudden weather disruptions are more frequent and devastating.

In this present day, our life appears to be normal; however, we need to remind ourselves that in the coming last years of time before Jesus’ return, there will be a period when life as we know it will change in an instant. Many people will be undoubtedly frightened because Jesus says:

“And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken” (Luke 21:25–26). 

However, those with faith having refuge in the Kingdom of God will not be afraid because “Our soul waiteth for the Lord: he is our help and our shield” (Psalm 33:20).

“And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh” (Luke 21:27-28).

“And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; [AND SHOULDEST DESTROY THEM WHICH DESTROY THE EARTH]” (Revelation 11:18).
