It's a crazy world that we are living in, but we can take comfort in the fact that it is all part of God's plan. How do we know we are fast approaching the rapture of the church? 1) The world decided that Israel is the international burdensome stone - Zech 12:2-3; 2) God is gathering His people back to Israel in greater numbers - Hos 3:4-5 & Amos 9:15 ; 3) Gog and Magog further align as they unite against Israel - Ezk 38 & 39; 4) Strong delusion intensifies and abounds - Isa 5:20 ; 5) Much of the church is slipping further away from truth and love - Mt 24:12
