As people’s lives become more frenetic, frantic, disjointed, and disconnected, they battle to stay focused on what ...read more

In that portion of the prophecy Jesus told us the conditions that would exist during this current age: deception, wars, pestilence, earthquakes, persecution, etc. In verse 8 He uses the metaphor of labor pains ...read more
