America, and the world, is entering a time when we can truly see the signs of the end beginning to be more clear. One only has to open the Bible and begin to study the four Gospels and the words of Christ to know that we are nearing the end.After all, Christ and John the Baptist both warned us before Paul, Peter or any of the apostles that we should repent, for "the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

We don't have to read Revelation to know that we are drawing ever closer to the return of Christ, and his return is approaching rapidly. Of course, reading Revelation will help to provide more insight.

2 Timothy 4:3-4 give us one of the key signs:3For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

Now more than ever, false prophets are in this world, folks, and they're telling people what they want to hear. Listen to the politicians on tv. Listen to the liberal news media. Listen to the world around you. More and more, people are listening to the false prophets of this world and less and less to the holy word of God.There are plenty of teachers, and even more willing ears.

Christians must be ever vigilent in these last days, preparing our hearts and making sure we're ready, while continuing to spread the gospel and to try to reach as many lost souls as possible.

We're told in 2 Thessalonians that there will be a great falling away before Christ comes back. Look at the current time, and you don't have to go back very far to see that the falling away has begun in earnest just in the last few years.

2 Thess. 2:3-4 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

The time is coming, brethren, when the agents of Satan will rise to power, and the world will quickly change, hastening the arrival of Christ. Be ready, because time is running out.

If you have not already accepted the precious blood of Christ as your savior, now is the time. Tomorrow could be too late.
