What
is the message of the Bible about the last days?
.
Luke 21:11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers
places, and famines (limos), and pestilences; and fearful
sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.
Preceding Bible places tells the last days and things, which
precede the coming of the Lord Jesus. One of these marks is
famine in the world. It is very remarkable that in original
text is Greek word limos, which means dearth, famine, hunger
(through the idea of destitution); a scarcity of food.
In the world has occurred during last years disappearing of
the honey bees, which influence that harvest don't produce
so much, but are decreasing, because there are less pollination
of the bees. We also see that amount of the poor in the world
is increasing, which means more hunger. We are very clearly
heading to culmination and final of the last days.
Those Bible places tell pestilence, which is in original text
Greek word loimos, which means (literally, the disease) pestilence,
a pestilent fellow, pest, plague. The word loimos is in those
places in plural, which means the different kind of infectious
diseases. We live in the time where all over the world are
many infectious diseases.
The Bible tells earthquakes in many places
all over the world and this also one sign of the last days
and coming of the Lord Jesus.
Luke 21:
25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon,
and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations,
with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
26 Men?s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after
those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers
of heaven shall be shaken.
27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud
with power and great glory.
The gospel of Luke chapter 21 tells that in the last days,
there will be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the
stars. People of the world have distress with perplexity,
when they understand that something destructive will face
the earth, when powers of heaven shall be shaken. It could
be that in the last days occurs sun storms, space storms,
geomagnetic storms and so on, which cause a lot of disasters
in the earth. The sea and waves are roaring, because of great
and large destructions on the earth.
