How much time before THE END?
GOD
ONLY KNOWS (Matthew 24:36).
When
JESUS, the only begotten Son of God was here on earth his disciples yearned to
know the sign of his coming. As it is written:
“And
as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately,
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” (Matthew 24:3-4).
Jesus
further explained to his disciples, saying: “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:) [THEN LET THEM WHICH BE IN JUDÆA
FLEE INTO THE MOUNTAINS]” (Matthew 24:15-16).
“And
when ye shall [SEE JERUSALEM COMPASSED WITH ARMIES], then know that the [DESOLATION
THEREOF IS NIGH]. Then let them which are in Judæa flee to the mountains; and
let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in
the countries enter thereinto. For these be the days of vengeance, that all
things which are written may be fulfilled” (Luke 21:20-22).
“[FOR
THEN SHALL BE GREAT TRIBULATION], such as was not since the beginning of the
world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be
shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days
shall be shortened” (Matthew 24:21-22).
“[IMMEDIATELY
AFTER THE TRIBULATION OF THOSE DAYS] shall the sun be darkened, and the moon
shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers
of the heavens shall be shaken:”(Matthew 24:29).
“[AND
THEN SHALL APPEAR THE SIGN OF THE SON OF MAN IN HEAVEN]: and then shall all the
tribes of the earth mourn, [AND THEY SHALL SEE THE SON OF MAN COMING IN THE
CLOUDS OF HEAVEN WITH POWER AND GREAT GLORY]” (Matthew 24:30).
“Verily
I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be
fulfilled. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. [BUT
OF THAT DAY AND HOUR KNOWETH NO MAN, NO, NOT THE ANGELS OF HEAVEN, BUT MY
FATHER ONLY]” (Matthew 24:34-36).
“[WATCH]
therefore: for [YE KNOW NOT WHAT HOUR] your Lord doth come” (Matthew 24:42).
“Take
ye heed, [WATCH AND PRAY: FOR YE KNOW NOT WHEN THE TIME IS]” (Mark 13:33).
“And
what I say unto you I say unto all, [WATCH]” (Mark 13:37).
“Now
the God of peace be with you all. Amen” (Romans 15:33).
