The "First Sign” of the End Times
Many people, at least those who are awake, know that we moving quickly towards the End of
this Age. Even if they are not real familiar with what the Bible says concerning the signs of the
times, they can just feel that something is coming by looking at the world situation. Things just
don’t seem right.
But it is extremely important to understand what God’s Word says concerning the signs of the
times or you could be deceived. Because when asked by His disciples what “sign” they should
look for prior to His return, the first thing Jesus said was:
Beloved, Christ mentioned this first because “deception” is the most important sign of the last
days. But all too often it seems to be the most forgotten sign among Christians. And many are
not prepared for what’s coming because they have not been taught that there are “two” Jesus’.
There is the “True Jesus” and there is the “false Jesus” who is none other than Satan himself
(Revelation 12:7). And you know what? Satan is going to look just like Jesus and even perform
many of the things that you would expect Jesus to perform. So how can you tell the difference?
Well, THE “FALSE JESUS” COMES FIRST.
And unfortunately many that believe in a Pre-Tribulation Rapture Theory will be deceived into
accepting the false Jesus because they are going to think that he is Jesus coming to rapture
them away.
If a gathering back to Christ was the first thing that was going to happen before the Great
Tribulation, Jesus would have said so. But He didn’t. In fact He said the opposite.
He said:
This is sad to say but many who have come in “Christ’s name” (Pastors, Ministers, Priests, etc.)
have been telling their congregations to go forth and meet the first supernatural being that
appears on this earth claiming to be Jesus. But again, what did Jesus say? He said, “Do not
believe them!”
Why?
Well simply because the True Jesus does not return to this earth until after Satan appears and
deceives most of the world, during the tribulation. I know that most Pastors and Ministers who
teach a pre-tribulation rapture do not intend to mislead people. It’s just that they have been
misled themselves and have gotten away from the simplicity of Christ’s teachings.
I mean all you have to do is read it for yourself. It’s not that complicated. Here is one example:
You see we gather back to Christ immediately after the tribulation, not beforehand. And take a
look also at this verse from this great chapter, Matthew 24.
To be a Christian Overcomer you must have the patience, faith, and courage to endure
through the tribulation unto the end. Beloved God is going to lead, guide, and protect us
during that time (Revelation 12). So we have nothing to fear. Is the tribulation going to be
easy? No. But you can handle it. Because many of you have been chosen by God and you
have a destiny and a purpose to fulfill in standing against the false one. And remember, if
anyone says to you that Christ has returned, do not believe them, for the “false Christ” comes
FIRST to DECEIVE the world. This is the first warning of the End Days.
Wait patiently for the True Christ and be a Christian Overcomer!
God Bless,

‘Christ;’ and shall deceive many.” –Matthew 24:4-5

He said:
- Then if any man shall say unto you, ‘Lo, here is Christ,’ or ‘there;’ believe it not. For
there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and
wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Behold, I have told you before.
Wherefore, if they shall say unto you, ‘Behold, He is in the desert;’ go not forth: ‘behold,
He is in the secret chambers:’ believe it not. –Matthew 24:23-26

trumpet, and they shall gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of
heaven unto the other." –Matthew 24:31
You see we gather back to Christ immediately after the tribulation, not beforehand. And take a
look also at this verse from this great chapter, Matthew 24.
- “But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.” --Matthew 24:13
