Are we in the “End Times”? This is an exceedingly difficult subject for some people to discuss. There are some who believe in the rapture and tribulation and some that do not. I am one of those people who never really cared either way because I know that I am saved by grace. I know that Jesus died on the cross and rose again to conquer Satan and death so that I may have eternal life. I don’t really care when Jesus comes again because I am ready any time. But what about my friends and family? Are they all saved? When Jesus comes again, will they be with me in paradise? Honestly, I really don’t know…and that scares me.

I like the way they have translated Jesus’s word in The Message from John 12:47-48.  It says:

“If anyone hears what I am saying and doesn’t take it seriously, I don’t reject him. I didn’t come to reject the world; I came to save the world. But you need to know that whoever puts me off, refusing to take in what I’m saying, is willfully choosing rejection.”

The Bible is full of prophetic words about the End Times. There are many passages that can be linked to current day events that are happening in our generation. But whether you believe in the End Times or not, it is time to take Jesus’s words seriously. Do not put Him off. Believe in Jesus. It is time to give your life to Him. It is time to make him the king of your heart. Romans 10:9 says:

If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

So, if you are ready to start a new life and begin a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ, say these words out loud:

Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior. In Your Name. Amen.
