Jesus is coming back. The time is truly short. Many think that the world will continue as it is today forever; in turmoil, crises, and wickedness; no, it won't. Its end is near.
Revelations 17:16 talks about the destruction of the world's religious system and structures of the last days before the coming of Christ. The Bible says they'll be destroyed in a flash, so much so, that the whole world will wonder at the rapidity.
However, the question is, "Are you getting ready for the coming of the Lord Jesus?" When some people hear that Jesus is coming soon, they become sad, and afraid to sleep, in case He shows up in the night. There's no need for fear. Just straighten up your life; that's what you should do. Keep walking in love and be ready, because "...for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh" (Matthew 24:44).
There's no need to be afraid of His coming. The Bible says, "But ye are come unto mount Zion..." (Hebrews 12:22). You were born into Zion when you were born again. You're not called to Mount Sinai, where there was judgment and fear; you're called into Zion. So, keep walking in the light of God, and you'll be ready when the Master returns in glory.
