Matthew 24 and the Signs of the Times
Are the natural events affecting the country today signs of the end? Jesus spoke of earthquakes, famines and pestilence in divers places. Was he speaking about the current floods, fires, hurricanes and earthquakes in North America. People are trying to make sense of it all. Others are questioning God's justice and care. What answers can we give them on what is going on around them?

Birth Pangs of A Church in Labor
What are the birth pangs of Romans 8 indicative of relative to the creation? This is a very significant term. It helps to set the context, time and significance of the events of Romans 8:18-23. The passage is related to an event which often is misunderstood and misapplied. Fortunately for us, we have a context in the Old covenant which sheds light on the meaning of the passage. We'll get to that in a moment.
At least four times in the New Testament, the inspired writers call attention to the birth pangs of the church. ...

Earthquakes - Road Signs of the End?
We are into the ninth of the 10 alleged signs of an imminent end of the world. Many who believe in these signs will yet be disappointed. Some will lose faith and despair of hope. As their predecessors were so they are, disillusioned about so many false predictions of the end.

Those who see our times as the last days often appeal to the words of Christ in which he predicted famine and pestilence. These words are found in Matthew. John Hagee as Dispensationalists are fond of doing, believe that the newspaper headlines and current events unveil the road map of the end.
However, we show that Hagee's 10 Road Signs to Armageddon End Times Lead to the Past. As in the previous seven signs we noted before, this sign of famines and pestilences also belongs to Israel's past history. Christ's words key us in to the fulfillment.
