The Bible talks about signs in the heavens and how Christians can respond with awe, wisdom, and biblical discernment rather than fear by discerning whether celestial events point to prophecy.

As believers notice many powerful and evil leaders in different nations today, they seek more information about the Antichrist. Often, they try to match a modern figure with that evil figure.The Bible speaks about the end of this earth, and Jesus tells us what to look for. At the same time, Christ teaches us that we won’t know the exact day or hour. The end will come upon us like a surprise, even for believers. Jesus’ point is simple and clear. Be ready. Learn to live right and watchful.With that motivation in mind, let’s examine what the Bible says about the Antichrist. Here are seven things to know about what the Antichrist will look like.Photo Credit: image created and edited using AI Tue, 14 Apr 2026 09:35:00 -0400 2026-05-25T21:50:53-04:00 https://www.crosswalk.com/slideshows/7-signs-we-are-in-the-end-times.html https://www.crosswalk.com/slideshows/7-signs-we-are-in-the-end-times.html Britt Mooney https://www.crosswalk.com/author/britt-mooney/ The sky is falling! In the old story, a type of parable, Henny Penny is a chicken and not a very intelligent one. An acorn falls on her head, and she concludes the sky must be falling, leading to hysteria. Speaking of the end times carries a certain amount of tension. The Bible speaks of the end of this world and a transition into the New Heaven and New Earth, a redemptive story where the end times and corruption of this world is first exposed in a destructive, dramatic fashion before the next world is fully realized. Passages like Matthew 24 and the book of Revelation read like a fantasy or science fiction novel with epic visions of creatures and beasts. These dramatic scenes of what we refer to as the "last days" or "end times" have led to erroneous declarations from pastors or supposed prophets about the end drawing nigh within the near future. Those dates have all passed, and we can be skeptical of ideas about the end times. Jesus tells us we won’t know the day or the hour the world will end. At the same time, he gives us specific signs the end is coming soon. In the Olivet Discourse of Matthew 24, he lists several end times events and calls these birth pangs like a woman in labor with a child. Painful. Intense. Yet a promise of new life at the end. Many today look at the world around us, see the headlines, and wonder if we are living in the end times. One way or another, we’re getting closer, but we should carefully explore the words of Jesus and how events today might fit his teaching. Let's look at seven events that will be signs of the end times and last days of earth.Photo Credit: © Getty Images/Llona Pietrolongo Thu, 05 Mar 2026 01:00:00 -0500 2026-05-25T21:50:53-04:00 https://www.crosswalk.com/church/pastors-or-leadership/christianity-questions-answers/is-the-battle-of-armageddon-around-the-corner.html https://www.crosswalk.com/church/pastors-or-leadership/christianity-questions-answers/is-the-battle-of-armageddon-around-the-corner.html Dr. Roger Barrier https://www.crosswalk.com/author/dr-roger-barrier/ Our small group had a long discussion about the Battle of Armageddon. We wondered where and how Jesus fit in with the Battle? Will America be involved? Do you believe that these things are being fulfilled today?

But what is the rapture, really? Is it in the Bible, and do we know when it will happen?  Mon, 22 Sep 2025 17:00:00 -0400 2026-05-25T21:50:53-04:00 https://www.crosswalk.com/faith/bible-study/this-end-times-prophecy-is-being-fulfilled-right-now.html https://www.crosswalk.com/faith/bible-study/this-end-times-prophecy-is-being-fulfilled-right-now.html Clarence L. Haynes Jr. https://www.crosswalk.com/author/clarence-l-haynes-jr/ Many people read this verse, but I believe they may overlook the truth in it. It seems to me more than ever before that there are many people who say they have prophetic voices that are attempting to speak in these times. And if there is a rise of prophets, then there will also be a rise of false prophets.

He told Adam and Eve what would happen if they ate from the wrong tree. He warned Noah of the future flood, He gave Moses information about the plagues, and He warned Israel what would happen if they abandoned Him. The Lord gave prophets the wonderful news about the future birth of the Savior, and John the Baptist proclaimed the need for repentance to prepare hearts to accept the Son of God.And Jesus gave His disciples information regarding the last days of the earth. In Matthew 24, the Lord related several signs, such as wars, famines, and earthquakes, that would precede His final appearance to all creation. More tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanoes have plagued the planet in the last few years than in previous decades.According to the NOAA’s National Center for Environmental Information, the years 2010-2019 were historic in the damage from natural disasters. In 2019 alone, the United States experienced 14 weather-related disasters, racking up claims of over a billion dollars each. These tragedies are often attributed to climate change, but we can see in Scripture that the planet was cursed after the fall of man (Genesis 3:17-19). All these calamities are another sign that the end times are upon us. The terrible anomalies that will transpire before Jesus comes back will be worse than anything we have ever experienced (Matthew 24:21). We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. (Romans 8:22)Besides weather signs to indicate the last days, spiritual deception will wreak havoc on the population. How can we guard ourselves against falling for the lies the devil uses? Here are seven ways to stay faithful to the Lord during turbulent times.Photo Credit: ©GettyImages/KAZITAFAHNIZEER Wed, 06 Aug 2025 15:00:00 -0400 2026-05-25T21:50:53-04:00 https://www.crosswalk.com/faith/spiritual-life/how-can-we-let-go-of-fear-surrounding-the-end-times.html https://www.crosswalk.com/faith/spiritual-life/how-can-we-let-go-of-fear-surrounding-the-end-times.html Vivian Bricker https://www.crosswalk.com/author/vivian-bricker/ Terrified of the end times?
