When christ was on earth for his early ministry, his deciples came to him to ask him about the what the sign of the end of the world would be and jesus who at this time had already known when these things will be especially their signs which of course will mark this ugly and bad system of things end.
Here are perhaps his replies of the signs of the events that will mark the end of this system of things.
NATION WILL RISE AGAINST NATION.
The world war 1 ushered in the cebtury of total war which affected the world at its global look.
Never before, has there been seen a kind of war that covered all the parts of the world for the first in 1914-1918...Never had the slaughter been so comprehensive and indiscriminate like the "world war 1-H. Baldwin.
The statistical proofs shows that this war killed over 9 million combatant, as much as other several millions of civilians.
A further 55 million persons were all left dead as a result of the devastating effect of this strong war that almost ravaged the entire earth into ruins of remains of the pangs of wars.
This issues of the world war undoubtedly proved jesus right and beyond all reason doubts why he is to be seen as indeed the true messiah.
"THERE WILL BE FOOD SHORTAGES"
Food shortages ravaged many lands after the world war 1 and then again, in world war 11.
It should not be forgotten that eventhough these years of the ist and second world wars, there were scientific and technological advancements and improvements in many areas and aspects of life yet, in 1967, it was reported that 10,000 persons were dying every year due to hunger and some 3,500,000 persons every year as a result of malnutrition.
According to Dr. Paul Ehrlich, "in the 1970's, the world will undergo famines whereas hundreds of millions of peopke are going to starve to death inspite of any crash programme embarked upon now".-"The population bomb".
"PESTILENCES"
According to historians, there has never been no renowned pestilencs that has equaled the Spannish influenza in 1918-1919. It struck atleast 500 million persons and over 20 million of the entire 500 persons that were syruck with the Spannish influenza lost their lives.
Today, eventhough that mordern research and findings scientifically have been able to prevent heart diseases from reaching epidemic proportions, yet the issues regarding cancer of what ever degree is very common as the number of cases have skyrocketed over time.
THERE WILL BE EARTH QUAKES IN MANY PLACES.
in 1915 in Avezzano Italy, 29,970 persons died of earth quakes; in China in 1920, 143, 000 persons died of earth quakes, in 1923 in Japan, 143,000 persons died of earth quakes, in 1935 in India, 60,000 persons died of earth quakes whereas in the 1960's down, saw great number of earthquakes in countries like; libya, yugoslavia, morrocco, france, indonesia, turkey, chile, cambodia, Russia and colombia. Then in 1970, we had another one that happened in Peru that killed 70,000 while 12,000 died in Nicaragua in 1972.
"INCREASING OF LAWLESSNESS"
In this cases, we have all been affected either locally in those remote areas where we find ourselves or in the so called advanced areas where we find ourselves.
What you see in this regard and also on daily basis are the illegal use of drugs, some financial dishonesty in buisinesses, insecurity in your places of abode as well.
All these and too many other ones have succeeded in increasing the rate of lawlessness in the world today.
The issues respecting crime crisis was so widespread that in 1972, the secretary general of the united nations called for international action to help in tackling this menace of crime which seems to be more on a high note.
"FINALLY, GOD'S KINGDOM TO BE PREACHED IN ALL THE WORLD"
This according to christ is the finall sign that will mark an end of this system of things.
What did he(jesus) say here with respect to preaching of the goodnews to the end of time which will of course mark the end of time and of the conclusion of this system of things.
Currently, this preaching work of the goodnews about the christ is being done throughout the entire world in almost over 205 lands which suggests the reasons why we must fall in the line of God or risks running the race for a destruction at the end when God shall have called it an end to this bad system of things.

I refuse to think that the Loving God will bring destruction to this wonderful universe. Be that as it may, I will live my days as if they were my last.
