There will be a dramatic decrease in civil interaction and love for fellow mankind, both in the church & society. It’s all part of the birth pangs that will occur during the tribulation period which reveal signs of Christ’s return. 

August 16, 2020 – Signs of Christ’s Return, Pt. 5- “Suffering” – Matt. 24:9-10; 1 Peter 4:12-14

Signs of Christ’s Return – ‘9  “Then they will deliver you to tribulation, and will kill you, and you will be hated by all nations because of My name.  10 At that time many will fall away and will betray one another and hate one another.”‘ Matthew 24:9-10 NASB

Share the Sufferings of Christ – ’12 Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal among you, which comes upon you for your testing, as though some strange thing were happening to you; 13 but to the degree that you share the sufferings of Christ, keep on rejoicing, so that also at the revelation of His glory you may rejoice with exultation. 14 If you are reviled for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you.’ 1 Peter 4:12-14 NASB
