Previous Christian generations have all thought that Jesus will come back during their lifetime. However, He never came back since not all the bible prophesies on his coming had been fulfilled. Christians now feel that His return is imminent. Here are prophesies in the bible that had to be fulfilled before Jesus coming back.
Jesus said that the days of wickedness would be shortened for the sake of people since if they were left to go on, they would wipe themselves out of the earth This is found in Mathew 24:22. It is now possible more than ever before for the world to eliminate itself. There are a lot of nuclear and hydrogen weapons stocked over the last 50 or so years. Anytime, they could fall into wrong hands and lead to mass destruction.
Luke 21:7 talks of re-establishment of Jewish state as one of the pointers to His coming just as a bud sprouts from a branch. Israelites finally got a home after centuries of wars and deportations. This happened in 1948. Zechariah 12:2-3 also prophesied that the new state will be stronger than its enemies surrounding it.
Another fulfilled prophecy is the unification of the European countries. Daniel 2 and 7 speaks about empires that will rule the earth before the return of Christ. The last of this is Roman Empire that crumbled to the present day Europe. The holy bible I Revelation 17:12-14 says that there will be an attempt to unite the former Roman Empire.
There are several countries that have joined up to form the European Union and have put systems in place to form a single state. There is a single currency, a parliament, and all that it takes to form a single state. In the history, the countries tried to join up by use of force. However, the new union is voluntary. The holy bible predicts that ten of them will come together and become one nation giving way to the return of the Christ.
The gospel is also reaching to all the corners of the earth. Jesus said that He would not come until the gospel reached all the corners of the earth. This can be found in Mathew 24:14. Most communist and Islamic countries never allowed the bible or the gospel to be preached in their countries. However, Technology has made it easy for the gospel to reach masses all over the world through the internet, radio, and television.
There have been higher frequencies of famines, earthquakes and pestilence in the last century than there have been since the middle ages. Mathew 27:7-9 predicts that in the final days, all these will happen and that it will be the beginning of sorrows.
The bible also talks of increased wickedness of the world as a pointer to the coming of Christ. There has been increased immorality in the world than has been witnessed ever before. There are so may unresolved murders, so much hate and individualism. People have forsaken God and are doing everything that pleases their souls. Abortions have also increased and marriages are breaking up as fast as they are formed as Luke 9:23 predicted. Be informed.
