End Times!

What did Jesus say about days in the end times?
Some of what He said is found in Matthew 12:9-14.
The words are hard to read, to understand that the concept of end times will really happen. 

NASB Matthew 24:9-14 “then they will deliver you to tribulation, and will kill you, and you will be hated by all nations because of My name.
¹⁰ ‘At that time many will fall away and will betray one another and hate one another.
¹¹ ‘Many false prophets will arise and will mislead many.
¹² ‘Because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will grow cold.
¹³ ‘But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved.
¹⁴ ‘This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.”

Love warns of impending disaster and doom.  Jesus did just that!  In the above verses, nothing is said about God’s love.  It is all about people who deny, ignore or reject the Lord Jesus as their Savior, their Rock, their Hope and their Help.

When love grows cold – lawlessness increases, hatred seems to rule, betrayal becomes a normal life style.  Are we seeing that in this day?  I believe so.

The Lord warned of His followers facing hard, hard times.
Tribulation, killed, hated by all nations – that is what we can know will happen in the end times.
Betrayal, hatred, false prophets misleading messages given out, lawlessness increased, love for the living God growing cold.

Love is not always soft, warm and fuzzy.  God’s love is straight-forward and honest, dependable and rock solid.  I want that kind of love which God gives, do you?

God’s Good News is going out into all the world… through various means, and that is exciting.
People are hearing God’s word to them in their language.  Good News!

This also is a part of end times.

~ Take it to heart ~

Love for the Lord Jesus ~ hangeth in there.
No matter what you may be facing today or tomorrow.
Good News!  The LORD loves you!
