Bible Question: Being that so much is happening showing the signs of the times, how does one not become overwhelmed? I know someone who constantly spends hours on Youtube, internet etc "looking" for signs of the times. Their conversation is constantly focused on these signs and emphasizing to others that the end is near. Speaks negativity constantly. Is trying to encourage a mutual friend to accept Christ, but the means by which he is delivering his message is actually turning this mutual friend away from Christ. Are followers of Christ to be focused on the means of the end; war, financial disaster in America, negative politics, famine, weather disasters? |
Bible Answer: NAL, the sure and only way to keep from becoming overwhelmed by the "signs of the times" is to stay off YouTube and stay focused on the blessed word of God! Christians take their marching orders from Christ and not from the Internet. Read carefully what Jesus said in Matthew 24:36-51. Saturate yourself in the word of God and cast away man's foolish predictions about end times, because he doesn't know what he's talking about. Trust God with all your heart, soul and mind. It's that simple -- and that difficult. --Hank |
