Why We Watch

Let's all remember that Jesus told us very clearly in Mark 13 to "Watch!"

Also there are various parables that Jesus tells that talk about the master returning and finding people asleep or not using their talents and gifts.....and it seems to not go well for those folks.

A reader had sent me a link to a site that also watches for news events as they tie into prophecy, and I liked what is sitting right on their home page so have posted it below;

First, a short Bible Prophecy 'equation'
to help show how close we are ...

+ Israel back in her Land again as a nation
+ Iran and allies threatening war against Israel
+ Russia rising as a powerful military threat ... and acting as a "guard" for Iran
+ China and allies armed with weapons capable of quickly destroying 1/3 of mankind
+ 'Weak mixed with strong' nations of the Roman Empire reuniting and rising in power (Europe?)
+ Teachings of 'false Prophets' deceiving and leading many
+ A Generation which is 'marked' by being "morally corrupt" and "filled with violence"
(The Bible uses the word 'corrupt' - like smelly, rotting meat)
+ 'The falling away'... churches and synagogues no longer teaching or "enduring" sound doctrine
+ Israel and Jerusalem . . . trouble, troubles, and more trouble
+ All nations turning against nation Israel . . .
= The Generation of the Rapture ... the Apocalypse ... Armageddon ... and Messiah's Return.

For the first time in history this prophetic 'equation' is nearly complete . . .
And all in THIS generation!!!

That pretty much sums it up... doesn't it? We are the first (and only) generation that is having all these things happen at the same time. Also we are the only generation that has the technology available to make many of unfulfilled prophesies possible.

What an awesome time to be alive!!
