the day come upon you unawares.' Luke 21:34. He also wrote of people having heart problems because of fear. 'Upon the earth distress of nations with perplexity… men's hearts failing them for fear.' Luke 21:26. But he added encouragingly: 'And when these things begin to come to pass, lift up your heads, for your redemption draweth nigh.' Luke 21:28.
It is also written - ‘This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent (out of control), fierce, despisers of them that are good, traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God.' 2 Timothy 3:1-5. Paul prophesied it - we can actually see it all around us. These are indeed the last days.
Q.18 How will Jesus come back?
'And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. Luke 21:27 He will come with all the angels, thunders, lightnings, and the sound of a trumpet and a great shout.
Q.19 What will happen to this world prior to it being recreated?
'But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.' 2 Peter 3:10
Q.20 What appeal does God make to us?
'Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be, in all manner of holy conversation (lifestyle)?’ 2 Peter 3:11. God tells us what we should be like in verse 14. 'Beloved, seeing that ye look for such things be diligent that ye may be found of hHm in peace without spot and blameless.' That is a high standard. But do you remember how to overcome health difficulties? You can overcome the spots in your life in exactly the same way, by admitting your problem, spiritually detoxing by repentance, then choosing to do the right thing, asking God all the time to give you His divine power to keep you from falling. It is easy and practical to learn the lesson of how to deal with a food temptation. Apply the same principles and treat the problem of sin in the same way. God has made this prescription practical for us and easy to understand. This website has been intended to teach you, through the problems of your bodies, how to get ready for these more serious things. We all have sickness in our bodies, wherever we are in the world or whatever age we are. God can use the healing of our sicknesses as a lesson to show us how to prepare our characters for the times just ahead. But the huge bonus, which shows that God is for real, is that when we follow His way; there are blessings of health and increased strength and vitality, as well as stronger characters. We take the action, God gives the reaction. Not one good word of God has ever failed.
