In the yester years, most Christians thought that the second coming of Christ will take place in their lifetime. This did not happen. The bible points out of several events that must take place before His second coming. Notably, nearly all of the bible prophesies hall all been fulfilled meaning His coming is near. Below is an overview of prophesies that that point to Jesus coming back soon.
In Matthew 24:22, Jesus says that those days of trouble will be shortened to save the living things from all being wiped off. The verse shows that if Christ does not step in, the human population will be annihilated. In the last 50 years, the world has grown its capacity for self-annihilation. Major world powers have stockpiles of nuclear arsenal and some have hydrogen bombs. There is also fear that this arsenal may fall into wrong hands especially the terrorists fighting for control in Middle East.
Jewish homeland has also ben reestablished in Middle East. In Luke 21:7 Jesus talks of the budding of the flower as a sign that he will come back. There have been so many battles that have been fought in Jerusalem including an exile. Finally, the Jewish state was re-established in 1948. Zechariah 12.2-3 talks of all the countries in the world gaging against Jews but they are destroyed by God.
Another fulfilled prophecy is the unification of the European countries. Daniel 2 and 7 speaks about empires that will rule the earth before the return of Christ. The last of this is Roman Empire that crumbled to the present day Europe. The holy bible I Revelation 17:12-14 says that there will be an attempt to unite the former Roman Empire.
There are several countries that have joined up to form the European Union and have put systems in place to form a single state. There is a single currency, a parliament, and all that it takes to form a single state. In the history, the countries tried to join up by use of force. However, the new union is voluntary. The holy bible predicts that ten of them will come together and become one nation giving way to the return of the Christ.
The gospel is also reaching to all the corners of the earth. Jesus said that He would not come until the gospel reached all the corners of the earth. This can be found in Mathew 24:14. Most communist and Islamic countries never allowed the bible or the gospel to be preached in their countries. However, Technology has made it easy for the gospel to reach masses all over the world through the internet, radio, and television.
It is also prophesied in the holy bible that the frequency and magnitude of natural disasters. In the last century, there have been more famines, droughts, earthquakes than ever before, Mathew 27:14 as the beginning of great afflictions on the earth.
In addition, He talks people forsaking God and being wicked. Today, the level of immorality, murders, loss of love and individualism has grown into extents never known before. Marriages are not lasting, abortions are on increase, and the world looks more lawless as predicted in Luke 9:23. Be well prepared.
