How can we tell that we are getting closer to the day?

We can tell we are getting closer to the day by observing world conditions: governments on shaky ground, turmoil around the planet, and an increase in earthquakes, which the Bible predicts. These events are piling up, pointing to the soon return of Christ.

Les explains that we think we are getting closer to the day all the time. He points to the world falling apart, governments on shaky ground, and turmoil all around the planet. He notes that seismologists see a tremendous increase in earthquakes but do not know why, while 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 as a mystery in 1 Corinthians 15:51, revealing a secret.

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.
