You were saying to topcat54 — “YES we do TC, share the gospel, be a witness for Christ to other’s that are lost....”

Yes, that’s very true — but — that has absolutely nothing to do with sightings in the sky or unidentified things that people see and/or noises or earthquakes or wars (or rumors of wars) and so on. Nope, nothing at all. That’s because people can die at any moment and they have throughout all the centuries and many of them have been unsaved. The fact of the matter is that no one knows if they will be alive in the next few minutes (or even seconds, for that matter). It can happen instantly. So — that — is the reason why the matter is urgent — and not because of any of these other things.
I wouldn’t tie the “urgency of the Gospel of Jesus Christ” for someone to know and to accept for their personal salvation to anything having to do with signs or UFOs or weird things going on. They are not linked — as far as salvation of an individual goes.
And it has nothing to do with how close the Rapture is, or how close it is to Jesus Christ setting up the Kingdom of God on this earth and ruling or reigning over the nations of the world. That’s because everyone’s personal and individual destiny is separate from all these other issues that we talk about. The Bible says that *now* is the time for one to accept Jesus Christ as their Savior. It’s not tomorrow and/or it doesn’t have to do with what is going on around us.
The Signs that Jesus gave us was so we would know the season, the season is here IMO...Jesus does not want us to become docile or Lazy in sharing the gospel, and I will say when things are hunky dory, most people by a sinful human nature do not share or call on Jesus like, they always no matter what should...
So the signs I believe are *indicators* that change is coming...Frankly more people in the world look for the Change in Obama then they do in the LORD...
Signs that I read in the Bible is what I see happening in this lifetime, our lifetime....Yes Jesus can come any day he wants, but I believe he warns people of what is coming.
He did with the Flood to Noah and his clan, and to Lot and his clan when GOD poured his wrath on a sinful un-repentful world.
I disagree that it has nothing to do with END TIMES STUFF.
It DOES have very much to do with the GREAT DECTPTION of the END TIMES that Scripture warns us about, imho.
I’ve posted about such things numerous times on FR.
