The Signs of the Times

Many today neglect the subject of the biblical signs of the times despite many Scriptures that emphasize how important these signs are. Jesus, more than any of the apostles, emphasized the need to discern the times (Mt. 16:1-4; 24:32-44; Lk. 19:41-44; 21:34-36). He strongly rebuked those who did not pay attention to the prophetic signs that pointed to His first coming. B. Jesus, the apostles, and the Old Testament prophets prophesied both event and trend signs. Over 150 biblical chapters in the Scripture have God’s end-time plan as the main subject. When we combine the prophecies in these chapters we get a fuller picture of biblical signs of the times.
