Sitting in my car the other night at Wally World parking lot when suddenly there was a flicker of lights and some kind of short audible signal from a nearby automobile. Hmmm? What was that? In just a few minutes a person strolled across the parking lot, got into the car and drove away. I actually knew what to expect following the visual and audible signals. I correctly read the signs concerning the nearby vehicle. How about some other signs? Such as these from the Gospel of St Matthew, chapter 24. Jesus answered: “Watch out that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and will deceive many. 6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of birth pains. 9 “Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. 10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. 12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, 13 but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.
