Fearful events there will be-
Various places men, women and children in agony.
Great signs from heaven given,
Great distress blows in words and wisdom.
*
Jesus was bold,
Conflicts, strife, disharmony revealed.
Stand firm to gain life, enter the fold.
The Kingdom of God is near, believe!
Perplexity with the crashing, tossing sea.
*
In anguish, terror on every side,
Nations rise against nation.
Kingdom against kingdom,
Trepidation of a time bomb.
*
A Kingdom on us He confers.
Among us, as One who suffered to serve.
May our faith neither fail nor fall.
To strengthen our brother, love overall.
*
To keep your life, you lose it,
To lose your life, you preserve it.
Remember the call-forget Him not,
Remember the days of Noah, of Lot.
*
Careful observation cannot save from sin,
A great chasm fixed,
His eternal kingdom is within.
Foreigner give praise and come home free,
God’s steadfast love is merciful and gracious in tender mercy.
“And Jesus answered them,
“See that no one leads you astray.
For many will come in my name, saying,
“I am the Christ, and they will lead many astray.
And you will hear wars and rumors of wars.
See that you are not alarmed,
for this must take place, but the end is not yet.
For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom,
and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places.
All these are but the beginning of the birth pains,
because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold.
But the one who endures to the end will be saved. ” ~Matthew 24

Oh soul, repent and put your faith and trust in Jesus Christ,
for He alone is our salvation and hope!
"Or do you presume upon the riches of His kindness and forbearance and patience, not knowing that God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance? But because of your hard and impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath when God's righteous judgement will be revealed. He will render to each one according to his works: to those who by patience in well doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life; but for those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, there will be wrath and fury. There will be tribulation and distress for every human being who does evil, the Jew first and also the Greek, but glory and honor and peace for everyone who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek. For God shows no partiality." Romans 2:4,5
