What Are The Signs Of The Second Coming?

What are the signs and/or events leading up to the 2nd Coming of Jesus Christ?

Let us do a list here and then see where we go from there using the Bible as well as the SOP wherever possible in the creation of this list.

Nobody replying yet?

Then, let me begin.

quote:

---

Matthew 24:3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?

And now we come to Christ's reply to this question.

quote:

---

Matthew 24:4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
[b]11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

There you have it, a good listing of the signs of the 2nd Coming of Jesus Christ as expressed by Christ Himself.

Are there any other signs?
