Are we Nearing the End?
Jesus promises to bring eternal life to everyone who believes in Him. This is a kingdeom where there will be no tears, no graves.
Let's discuss the proximity of this kingdom's inauguration and consider what Jesus said about the end of times. He said that nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and that there will be famines, there will be earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains. Jesus compares the signs of the end with birth pains: they are painful and they come with increasing frequency.
