Germanwings Flight 4U5925 Air Disaster - What does this Mean? (A retired missionary physician explains how this event is an illustration of what is happening to everybody in the whole world.)
End of the World We are living in a period of time
that is of overwhelming interest to all. Political leaders
and legislators, men and women who hold positions of
trust and authority, thinking men and women of all classes,
have their attention focused upon the events taking
place around us. People are watching the strained, restless
relations that exist between countries. Thousands observe
the intensity that is taking possession of every earthly
element, and they realize that something great and decisive
is about to happen--it appears that the world is on
the verge of its most tremendous crisis.
Even with all the signs that are taking place, there
are many people who scoff at the idea that this world
will come to and end.
The Bible gives us the truth about what is really happening,
it says that Angels are even now restraining the winds of strife, that they may
not blow until the world shall be warned of its coming
doom. But there is a storm is gathering, ready to burst
upon the earth; and when God shall tell His angels loose
the winds, there will be a scene of strife that no pen
can picture.
The Bible, and the Bible only, gives us the correct
view of these things. In it are revealed the great and
final scenes of the history of our world. The events
taking place today are a precursor to the final events
which even by their approach cause the earth to tremble
and men's hearts to fail them for fear.
"Behold, the Lord maketh the earth empty, and maketh
it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth
abroad the inhabitants thereof. . . . They have transgressed
the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting
covenant.
#1 & #2 Gospel to the World and Biblical Understanding Increased"And this gospel of the
kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness
unto all nations; and then shall the end come. "
Matthew 24:14
The great protestant reformation was helped by the development
of the printing press, finally people could have a copy
of the holy scriptures and read the Bible for themselves
in their own language. Today, in our time, the everlasting
Gospel is being preached around the world via Radio,
Television,
Internet, DVD's, CD's, Missionaries, and more.
Additionally, in the past century there has been a great increase in man's ability to travel quickly. A missionary, or preacher, can get to different parts of the world in just a few hours.
The development of computers and the internet has also greatly enhanced the ability of the Gospel to move quickly. These increases in knowledge and man's ability to travel are a fulfillment of this end of the world prophecy:
"But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal
the book, [even] to the time of the end: many shall run
to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased." Daniel
12:4
In Daniel 12:10, at the time of the
end, the Bible says that many people will understand the prophecies.

#3 - Final Warning Messages to the World "And I saw another angel fly in the midst of
heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach
unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation,
and kindred, and tongue, and people,
Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to
him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and
worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea,
and the fountains of waters.
And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is
fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made
all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.
And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud
voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and
receive [his] mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God,
which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his
indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone
in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence
of the Lamb:" Revelation 14:6-10
The gospel message that is to go through out the world
at the very close of earth's history contains the strongest
warnings ever given to man. These warning messages are
being given around the world today, they can be found
in Revelation 14:6-10.
#4 - Doubters Scoffing at the Bible Prophecies "Knowing this first, that there shall
come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own
lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming?
for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue
as [they were] from the beginning of the creation."
2 Peter 3:3-4
Even though the end of the world signs are being fulfilled
on every hand multitudes of people scoff at the Bible
and the idea that the end of the world as we know it is
just about here.
#5 - Nations Distressed, People Fearful, Great Disasters Caused by Water and Waves - Great Floods and Hurricanes, etc. "And
there shall be signs in the sun,
and in the moon, and in the stars;
and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity;
the sea and the waves roaring; Men's hearts
failing them for fear, and for looking after those
things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of
heaven shall be shaken." Luke 21:25-26
Signs have been occuring one after the other, people are
truly afraid, and the governments and politicians are
at a loss for what to do about all of the problems. Yet
at the same time multitudes are saying that everything
has gone on as it always has. But this is not true, even
the director of FEMA, James Lee Witt, has said that weather
related disasters have been increasing.
"Natural Disasters are getting more frequent and
more severe, Federal Emergency Management Agency Director
James Lee Witt said Tuesday, preaching a gospel of preparation
and prevention for Americans." by Associated
Press Writer Randolph E. Schmid on Wednesday May 24-2000.
#6"This know also, that in
the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall
be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud,
blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers,
incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more
than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying
the power thereof: from such turn away." 2 Timothy
3:1-5
Wickedness abounds, even in the largest 'professedly'
Christian churches.
#7 - History &
Prophecy "Thus saith the Lord
God; Remove the diadem, and take off the crown: . . .
exalt him that is low, and abase him that is high. I will
overturn, overturn, overturn, it: and it shall be no more,
until He come whose right it is; and I will give it Him."
Ezekiel 21:26, 27.
The final overthrow of all earthly dominions is plainly
foretold in the word of truth. In the above prophecy the
sentence from God was pronounced upon the last king of
Israel.
The crown was removed from Israel and passed successively
to the kingdoms of Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, and Rome.
God says, "It shall be no more, until He come whose
right it is; and I will give it Him."
Prophecies #8-18"And
as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came
unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these
things be? and what shall be the sign of thy
coming, and of the end of the world?
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that
no man deceive you.
When ye therefore shall see the abomination
of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand
in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)"
Matthew 24:3-15
Last Days Prophecy #19"Knowing this first, that there shall come in
the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since
the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as [they
were] from the beginning of the creation.
For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the
word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing
out of the water and in the water:
Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with
water, perished:
But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same
word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the
day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men." 2
Peter 3:3-7
The Bible predicted that even though God has left us abundance
evidence of the world wide flood during Noah's day, people
would be "willingly ingnorant" of that
it happened. They are also ignorant of the fact that God's
great love for us has caused Him to grant us a little
more time to repent of our sins before He destroys sinners
off of the earth the second time. Please watch this short video clip for more information:
"The Lord is not slack concerning his promise,
as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward,
not willing that any should perish, but that all should
come to repentance.
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night;
in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great
noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat,
the earth also and the works that are therein shall be
burned up.
[Seeing] then [that] all these things shall be dissolved,
what manner [of persons] ought ye to be in [all] holy
conversation and godliness, 2 Peter 3:9-10
End of the World Bible Prophecy
#20How do the beasts groan! the herds of cattle are perplexed, because they have no pasture; yea, the flocks of sheep are made desolate. O LORD, to thee will I cry: for the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and the flame hath burned all the trees of the field. The beasts of the field cry also unto thee: for the rivers of waters are dried up, and the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness." Joel 1:18-20
