In the first two posts of this Bible Study series, we explored the prophetic framework of Revelation and the compelling signs that suggest we are living in the End Times. But now comes the most important question of all: What should we do about it?
If we truly believe that the return of Jesus is near, our response must go beyond curiosity or casual interest. It must move us to action, urgency, and faithfulness. Let's take a quick look!
🧭 We Are Called to Be Watchful
“Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come.”
—Matthew 24:42
Jesus repeatedly told His disciples to stay alert. Not to panic. Not to hide. But to watch. To be spiritually awake and aware of the times.
“You also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.”
—Matthew 24:44
🔥 We Are Called to Be Holy
“So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him.”
—2 Peter 3:14
The End Times are not just about prophecy charts—they’re about purity. If we believe Jesus could return at any moment, we should live like it. This means repenting of sin, walking in obedience, and pursuing holiness - constantly. This should be our regular practice. Considering everything going on in the world...living Holy will probably make us really stand out!
📣 We Are Called to Share the Gospel
“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.”
—Matthew 24:14
The Great Commission doesn’t pause during turbulent times—it intensifies. Technology has made it possible to reach the ends of the earth. But it’s not just about global missions—it’s about your neighbor, your coworker, your family. Who can you share the Gospel with today? Who can you reach BEFORE it is too late?
🛡️ We Are Called to Be Watchful and to Stand Firm
“Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.”
—1 Corinthians 16:13
As the world grows darker, believers must shine brighter. That means standing firm in the Truth, even when it’s unpopular. It means refusing to compromise, even when it’s costly.
🙏 We Are Called to Encourage One Another
“…not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.”
—Hebrews 10:25
We weren’t meant to walk this journey alone. The closer we get to Christ’s return, the more we need each other. Staying in the word, coupled with fellowship, prayer, and encouragement are our lifelines in these last days. This reminds me once again, why Bible Studies like this are so important and so powerful!
🕊️ We Are Called to Live with Hope
“While we wait for the blessed hope—the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ…”
—Titus 2:13
The End Times aren’t just about judgment—they are all about Jesus. Our hope isn’t in politics, economics, or human solutions. Our TRUE HOPE is in JESUS our Savior and HIS soon return!.
🙏 Final Thoughts
We may not know the exact moment of Christ’s return, but we do know this: He is coming soon!! When He does, we want to be found faithful. So let’s live with urgency. Let’s love with compassion. Let’s serve with joy. Let’s proclaim the Gospel boldly. Let’s keep our eyes fixed on Jesus—the Author and Finisher of our faith.
“…Come Quickly…LORD JESUS!”
—Revelation 22:20
