Signs of the Times in the light of Scripture You know how to discern the face of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times [Kairos] (Matt 16:1-3).

“But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up”.(2 Pet 3:10) “Looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be destroyed by burning, and the elements will melt with intense heat!” (2 Pet 3:12)

Peter asks a very logical question at this point…… “Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of person should you be in holy conduct and godliness” (2 Pet 3:11).

And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casts her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. (Rev 6:13-14) “And the stars of heaven will fall from heaven, and the powers that are in the heavens will be shaken. (Mark 13:25) And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp (Rev 8:11)*

[The First Sign] The Moon will be turned into Blood “The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and terrible day of the Lord comes” (Joel 2:31)*

On February 20th, 2008 a blood red moon or Total eclipse of the moon was seen over the dome of the rock in Jerusalem.

[The Second Sign] End time Events also revolve around Babylon the Great City. “that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come”. (Rev 18:10)

Has the rebuilding of Babylon the great city begun? During the Iran/Iraq War Saddam Hussein started rebuilding the ancient city of Babylon on its original ruins. It portrayed Saddam Hussein as successor to Nebuchadnezzar, Babylon's mightiest ruler."

Hussein saw himself as the next ruler of Babylon

Some believe that George Bush & Saddam Hussein were working together towards this goal.

[The Third Sign] Many scholars believe that the last sign before Jesus returns from the signs that he spoke of is “The Sign of Noah” (Matthew 24:37-39)

As it was in the days of Noah, they did eat, drink, and married wives, they were given in marriage, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built, so shall it be in the days of the Son of Man (Luke 17:26-30).

Noah; Ark; Church Sign of Noah; His building of the Ark and preaching righteousness (120 years) represents the Church. Note the similarities when Noah (The church) is taken away from the earth, things begin to change. Genesis Transition Revelation 3 – 4 Transition

[The Fourth Sign] The Antichrist Revealed Nimrod was the Antichrist of Noahs time. So what can we learn about Nimrod? Is the Antichrist / Nimrod Alive today?

Nimrod began to be a mighty one in the earth. (Gen 10:8) He was a mighty hunter before the LORD (Gen 10:9) Nimrod was a hunter; but what he hunted was the souls of men to achieve his self exhalative purposes in building a tower that a new world order would revolve around.

"It was he who attempted to bring together the human race after the Flood in an effort to get them united into a nation of which he could become the great world ruler. He was the rebel, the founder of Babel, the hunter of men's souls. He was the lawless one, and is a shadow or type of the last world ruler, the Antichrist, who is yet to appear." - J. Vernon McGee

By faith, Noah, being warned about things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared a ship for the saving of his house, through which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith. (Hebrews 11:7)
