This message was written in 2020. Some Christians are wondering if we’re in the endtimes. Jesus tells us that what we’re seeing is the beginning of birth pains. This message shows some signs that herald the nearing return of Christ.

I think we can all agree that the world is getting pretty crazy, and some Christians are wondering if we’re in the endtimes. Some are even wondering if we’re in the Tribulation period.

Throw Out Your End Time Calendar

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Oct 9, 2021
