Let’s face it, from Adam and Eve’s Fall to the present time, World History has been a movement forward, a time of preparation for that wonderful day when all of creation will be restored to its God-glorifying condition. Each day, the stage is being set politically, geographically, and spiritually for the final scene in the final act: the Return of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ and the fulfillment of the Book of the Revelation.
We are now living in the end times (1 Peter 4.7a; James 5.8; 1 John 2.18). The following is an ongoing list of news articles relating, in my opinion, to the last days described in the Bible which precede … the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord (Acts 2.20b).
This list is not in the least bit exhaustive. I simply want to encourage people to begin looking at history with the Biblical end in sight so that they will have hope in these trying days.
