Our world sits on the precipice of change. We cannot deny the myriad signs pointing to a soon transformation. Suspicious political undercurrents, extreme weather, and invasive technology signal an ailing society on the brink of something.The evidence is clear: the Second Coming of Christ is near. Data suggests His approach may be sooner than we think.If so, why are most unprepared? Why are we largely oblivious to such a widespread, catastrophic event? Unfortunately, the Church has poorly modeled the proper way to handle the apocalypse. Its popular end-times theology includes:1. Don't watch for Christ's coming.

It'll happen someday.2. Don't think about it. No one knows the day or hour. Besides, we're having fun.3. End times are confusing and scary. Since we don't understand or like them, let's ignore them.

4. We're to occupy until His return anyway.But this is opposite what Jesus commanded.The subject of end times typically invokes one of two responses: avoidance or extremism. Neither are correct. One encourages ignorance while the other invokes fear. There is a third, correct reaction, however: faith rooted in wisdom. Christ insisted upon this when He implored us to "not be like others who are asleep," but to "be awake and sober.

" (1 Thessalonians 5:6) He also said "it will be good for those servants whose Master finds them watching when He comes." (Luke 12:37)Friend, our Lord clearly desires vigilance for His return.Thankfully, there's a growing number well aware of the circumstances. They ask questions like:1. Why do we ignore end times?2. How close is the coming Christ? (Tip: sooner than we think)3. What will happen to us personally when Jesus returns?These questions are the foundation of this book. In light of much apocalyptic sensationalism, this message delivers a solid end-times perspective.

We'll examine God's schedule for mankind (there is one). Then, we'll investigate common biases which encourage end-times ignorance. Then we'll study the latest bizarre - but relevant - prophetic updates. Last, we'll reach a conclusion so superb you'll want to share it with the world.The coming Christ will affect everyone far sooner than expected. Join us as we judiciously examine the future's most crucial, far-reaching event before it actually happens.
