What signs show we are getting closer to the day?
Signs include a world falling apart, governments on shaky ground, and turmoil all around the planet. The Bible also foretells an increase in earthquakes. These developments pile up as indicators that the day of Christ's return is approaching, though seismologists cannot explain why earthquakes are increasing.
Les explains that as we see the world falling apart, governments on shaky ground, and turmoil all around the planet, we think we are getting closer to the day all the time. He notes that seismologists acknowledge a tremendous increase in earthquakes worldwide but do not know why; the Bible tells us there will be an increase in earthquakes. Everything is coming on and piling up for the soon return of Christ. Paul describes this in 1 Corinthians 15:51 by revealing a mystery, a secret.
