This are natural causes humans are bound to defend against, instead of you work hard and help fight against this calamity you’ll fold your arms believing in an old ancient book telling you sit tight and mumble some useless words

You go about mentioning Igbo in every thread and trying to turn every thread to fight against Igbo.

If I ask you for prove now that Igbo claimed Lagos is no man's land, you will start looking for comments from Internet
Yeah, I forgot, those comments were made by "urchins" "agbadorians" to rile up hate against the Igbos. Since when have you guys ever own up to anything?!

There's no last day anywhere. The day you die is your own last day. Stop believing Shakespearan and Hollywood scripts. Time has no beginning or end.

Says the one in hell complaining about Hellfire. Abuse me all you want, The Lord has fully blessed me and I am very much satisfied with this world but for you, all your living on earth will be horrible only for you to continue living forever in even a worser place, as you have chosen. So no need to complain.

What Is the Sign of “the Last Days,” or “End Times”?

The Bible describes events, conditions, and attitudes that would mark “the conclusion of the [current] system of things,” or “the end of the world.” (Matthew 24:3; King James Version)

The Bible calls this time period “the last days” and the “time of the end,” or “end times.”—2 Timothy 3:1; Daniel 8:19; Easy-to-Read Version.

What are some Bible prophecies about “the last days”?

The Bible foretold many things that together would be “the sign” to identify the last days. (Luke 21:7) Consider some examples:

War on a large scale.

Jesus foretold: “Nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom.” (Matthew 24:7) Similarly, Revelation 6:4 foretold a symbolic horseman representing warfare that would “take peace away from the earth.”

Famine.

Jesus foretold: “There will be food shortages.” (Matthew 24:7) The book of Revelation foretold an additional symbolic horseman, whose ride would result in famine on a large scale.—Revelation 6:5, 6.

Great earthquakes.

Jesus said that there would be “earthquakes in one place after another.” (Matthew 24:7; Luke 21:11) These great earthquakes around the world would cause suffering and loss of life on an unprecedented scale.

Disease.

According to Jesus, there would be pestilences, or epidemics of “terrible diseases.”—Luke 21:11, Contemporary English Version.

Crime.

Although crime has existed for centuries, Jesus foretold that in the last days, there would be an “increasing of lawlessness.”—Matthew 24:12.

Ruining of the earth.

Revelation 11:18 foretold that mankind would be “ruining the earth.” They would do so in many ways, not only through violent and corrupt actions but also by bringing harm to the environment.

Deteriorating attitudes.

At 2 Timothy 3:1-4, the Bible foretold that people in general would be “unthankful, disloyal, . . . not open to any agreement, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, without love of goodness, betrayers, headstrong, puffed up with pride.” These attitudes would reach such extremes that the era could rightly be described as “critical times hard to deal with.”

Breakdown of the family.

At 2 Timothy 3:2, 3, the Bible foretold that many people would have “no natural affection” for their family and that children would be “disobedient to parents.”

Diminished love of God.

Jesus foretold: “The love of the greater number will grow cold.” (Matthew 24:12) Jesus meant that love for God would grow cold in most people. Likewise, 2 Timothy 3:4 says that in the last days, such ones would be “lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God.”

Religious hypocrisy.

At 2 Timothy 3:5, the Bible foretold that people would appear to worship God but would not truly live by his standards.

Increased understanding of Bible prophecies.

The book of Daniel foretold that in “the time of the end,” many would gain increased knowledge of Bible truth, including accurate understanding of these prophecies.—Daniel 12:4, footnote.

A global preaching work.

Jesus foretold: “This good news of the Kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth.”—Matthew 24:14.

Widespread apathy and ridicule.

Jesus foretold that people in general would ignore the overwhelming evidence of the approaching end. (Matthew 24:37-39) More than that, 2 Peter 3:3, 4 foretold that some would ridicule the evidence, dismissing it completely.

All prophecies fulfilled.

Jesus said that the last days would be marked by the simultaneous fulfillment of all these prophecies, not just a few or even most of them.—Matthew 24:33.

Are we living in “the last days”?

Yes. World conditions as well as Bible chronology indicate that the last days began in 1914, the year World War I began.

Many people are distressed by these critical times. They are concerned that society itself is deteriorating. Some even fear for the future of humanity.

Meanwhile, others who are likewise distressed by world conditions have a hopeful outlook. They are convinced that God’s Kingdom will soon take action to rid the world of its problems. (Daniel 2:44; Revelation 21:3, 4) They wait patiently for God to fulfill his promises, and they find comfort in the words of Jesus: “The one who has endured to the end will be saved.”—Matthew 24:13; Micah 7:7.



Yes. World conditions as well as Bible chronology indicate that the last days began in 1914, the year World War I began.


Take a look at the scriptures below

Acts 2:17 - 20 And in the last days,” God says, “I will pour out some of my spirit on every sort of flesh, and your sons and your daughters will prophesy and your young men will see visions and your old men will dream dreams, 18 and even on my male slaves and on my female slaves I will pour out some of my spirit in those days, and they will prophesy. 19 And I will give wonders* in heaven above and signs on earth below—blood and fire and clouds of smoke. 20 The sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into blood before the great and illustrious day of Jehovah* comes.


and

2 Timothy 3:1 But know this, that in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here.


Are they

a. the same last days

b. different last days

c. did both begin in the years +/- 50 - 100 C. E

d. did both begin in year 1914


Then one small area to sort, when you say Bible chronology, can you tell me the exact year that Jerusalem was destroyed using the bible only since the Bible get chronology.(Hint : your answer should in this format 14th Chislev 607 B. C. E grin grin grin)

Rubbish. There are no last days. All happening now - natural disasters etc have all happened in the past usually with worse effects. For example are you aware the bubonic plague wiped out more than 50% of the known population of the world during the middle ages due to poor medical care and hygiene. how many people died fro m Coviid worldwide. Even the death toll from earthquakes etc is less today due to better emergency response and medicare. keep believing fairy tales. Peace

Don't mind them,...

War, diseases incest, homosexualism and many other seemingly ills of society has always been around and within humankind. If it's not happening around you or you have no access to information of it happening around the world, it'll be as if such don't exist at all.

These people don't even want to know history or understand the ways of other people, that's why they're repeatedly played into believing such ridiculous ideas.

IMO, last days refers to the period of time when death claims an individual for that's your own personal last days... undecided

Oya clap for this daddy.

The last days is a chapter with many paragraphs. Nobody can tell precisely where we are in the chapter. But Jesus ended the treatise you quote by saying " Take heed that no man deceive you"
The consistent thread and warning is patience, endurance and watchfulness. To check for signs is not always helpful as it can itself bring weariness and disappointment.


That is because you do not yet see or you do not want to see because of the fear it brings.

Prophecy of hardness of buying and selling is upon us and you are still looking for the signs.

These have always been there.

The danger is people using signs to abdicate responsibilities in the world in exchange of rapture. That's my concern.

Every generation from Paul has seen these signs. They are like drums beating softly and then getting louder. But they have always been present in some form.

It is now for you to make the call that they are beating at their loudest and that the groom is at the door. That's your personal call.

Re: What Is The Sign Of “the Last Days,” Or “end Times”? by OLULAW: 11:07am On Mar 19, 2023
Some 2000 years ago, earliest Christians waited for Jesus' coming. Some left their daily preoccupations and gathered at Pepuza (a small town in present day Turkey and the center of Montanist heretical movement, which believed the New Jerusalem (Revelation 21) was soon to descend on the Earth). There, they awaited Jesus' return. It never happened. In the 1970s and 80s, American tele-evangelists wrote all manners of books insinuating that Jesus' return was eminent, citing events that would herald Jesus' second coming - some of which are listed here in this thread. It didn't happened. Yes, "no one knows the time. Not even the angels." For me, that's a cop out. This is 2023, some idiots are still perpetuating the same lies. Jesus is long dead and the dead don't make come backs. In 4023 (i.e. in 2000 years to come), some idiots would still be talking about the Parousia. Claims about the afterlife, like any metaphysical claims, are connotative and non-cognitive, and as such unverifiable and unfalsifiable.
