What signs indicate that the end times are approaching?

What signs indicate that the end times are approaching?: "Answer: Matthew 24:5-8 gives us some important clues so we can discern the approach of the end times, “For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am the Christ,' and will deceive many. You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.” An increase in false messiahs, an increase in warfare, and increases in famines, plagues, and natural disasters—these are signs of the end times. In this passage, though, we are given a warning: we are not to be deceived, because these events are only the beginning of birth pains; the end is still to come."

Who Are the 24 Elders of Revelation? | Bible Prophecy Blog

Who Are the 24 Elders of Revelation? | Bible Prophecy Blog: "An important interpretative issue in the Book of Revelation revolves around the identity of the 24 elders. Who the 24 elders represent can be very important in regards to the pre-trib rapture. The 24 elders are mentioned five times in the Book of Revelation as follows: 4:4, 10; 5:8; 11:16; and 19:4"

D. A. Carson on 5 Ways to Prepare Kids for Attacks on Their Faith – Justin Taylor

D. A. Carson on 5 Ways to Prepare Kids for Attacks on Their Faith – Justin Taylor: "There is no formulaic answer and no guarantee. For a start, our children themselves are extraordinarily diverse. Many will be tempted by postmodern assumptions. Others will feel far greater threats from biologists, cosmologists, or psychologists who operate under the assumptions of raw atheism or, worse, functional atheism. All I can do is enumerate some values and practices in the home that seem to me to be wise, biblically faithful, and useful in mitigating the dangers. These are exemplary, not exhaustive."

On The Box: Words of Comfort: Reading the Bible Through a Year

On The Box: Words of Comfort: Reading the Bible Through a Year: "I guess my Bible reveals that I believe in regularly opening its pages. I have been a Christian for more than 40 years and never once have I gone a day without reading the Scriptures. As a new Christian I thought that was normal for every believer. I was wrong. So for many years I have encouraged Christians to say, "No Bible, no breakfast; no read, no feed," so that they can stand on the wonderful promises of Psalm One. It is with this thought in mind that I would like you to join me in reading the Bible through in a year."
