THE ESCHATOLOGY

in #partiko6 years ago

Passage Reading
1st Corinthians 4:16-17
"And when this epistle is read among you, cause that it be read also in the church of the Laodiceans; and that ye likewise read the epistle from Laodicea. And say to Archippus, Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, that thou fulfil it." (KJV Lite)

ESCHATOLOGY is the study of the end times.

The end time (also called end times , end of time , end of days , last days , final days, doomsday, or eschaton) is a future time-period described variously in the eschatologies of several world religions (both Abrahamic and non-Abrahamic), which teach that world events will reach a final climax.
The Abrahamic faiths maintain a linear
cosmology , with end-time scenarios containing themes of transformation and redemption . In Judaism, the term "end of days" makes reference to the Messianic Age and includes an in-gathering of the exiled Jewish diaspora, the coming of the Messiah , the resurrection of the righteous , and the world to come . Some sects of Christianity depict the end time as a period of tribulation that precedes the second coming of Christ , who will face the Antichrist along with his power structure and usher in the
Kingdom of God .

In Islam, the Day of Judgement is preceded by the appearance of the al-Masih al-Dajjal , and followed by the descending of Isa (Jesus). Isa will triumph over the false messiah, or the Antichrist, which will lead to a sequence of events that will end with the sun rising from the west and the beginning of the Qiyamah (Judgment day).

SIGNS OF THE END TIME
Matthew Chapter 24 gives an account of the signs of the end time as spoken of by Jesus Christ. It consists of the beginnings, during and the endings of the end time.

Beginnings (Matthew 24:4-8)
• Kingdoms rising against Kingdoms, Nations against Nations.
• Famine
• Pestilence
• False Prophets
• Impersonation of Jesus Christ
• Earthquakes

Durings (Matthew 24:9-14)
• Love of many growing cold.
• Iniquities abounding
• Betrayals
• Persecution of Christians

Endings
• The gospel reaching the ends of the world.
