We are in the last days. What is the number one sign that Jesus spoke about?. [Spirituality & Religion]

[b]"Now the Holy Spirit speaks expressly that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils,"
Tim4:1[/b]

[b]
20 Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? Cor. 1:20
[/b]

[b]"Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things." Rom 1:22
[/b]

Based on what?

Carazaa · F

@Pherick All the signs in Matthew 24

Pherick · 41-45, M

@Carazaa Kind of pompous of you to think that, even the Bible says so,

[quote]But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son,[f] but only the Father. - Matthew 24:36[/quote]

@Carazaa Matthew 24:44 says it similarly,

[quote]44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.[/quote]

@Carazaa I have a feeling this applies to you trying to tell anyone its the end of days.

[quote]3 As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?”

4 Jesus answered: “Watch out that no one deceives you.[/quote]

Carazaa · F

@Pherick Yes, But Jesus did tell us the signs of the last generation, like increased knowledge, great earthquakes, and floods, and famines, and men's heart growing cold, and peoples faith falling away.

Carazaa · F

@Pherick Yes, very good. We can't be deceived and fall asleep, or believe lies. Many pastors twist the truth! Just read your Bible and ask God for truth.

@Carazaa If there is any sign of the "end times"-- it is of our hardened and cold hearts for each other.

Carazaa · F

@CopperCicada Yes, that is one of the signs that Jesus said.

"iniquity abounding and Men's hearts growing cold" Matt 24

@Pherick Excuse me? I think you have misapplied that verse.

Pherick · 41-45, M

@BiblicalWarrior Its a bunch of chapters written over a 200 or 300 year period crammed together by a church, who translated, then re-translated and translated it again.

The whole thing is a giant 3000-year-old game of telephone. The idea that any of it makes literal sense is just beyond ridiculous.

BiblicalWarrior · 51-55, M

@Pherick The first verse you quoted actually refers to the exact time of Christ's Second Coming. We are, also by Christ, commanded to know when it is near, though we will not in advance know the exact time.
