Noteworthy News
Matthew 24 provides a detailed and sobering outline of events leading up to Christ’s return to establish the Kingdom of God on the earth. He says “Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming. But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect” (Matt. 24:42-44).
Christ’s admonition to watch is reiterated in the Gospels (Matt. 25:13, Mark 13:32-37, Luke 12:35-40). Of the religious leaders of His day, Christ added “When it is evening you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red’; and in the morning, ‘It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ Hypocrites! You know how to discern the face of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times” (Matt. 16:2-3). He instructs us to “Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man” (Luke 21:36). Daniel 12 covers many of these events of these last days. Daniel was told to “ . . . 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).
It is with sobriety we acknowledge that we live in such a time where many travel to and fro by rapid modern transportation, and that a vast knowledge explosion is underway—with mankind’s knowledge being increased exponentially year-by-year.
Therefore we watch for the signs of the times in which we live. This page is a resource dedicated to that objective.
The increase of knowledge, true science, rightly understood, is remarkable:
