One in three children fear “environmental apacolypse”
A recent survey done on behalf of Habitat Heroes indicates that many children now fear environmental destruction on a worldwide scale. This is interesting because it is one of the signs Jesus said would proceed His return to earth.
Luke 21 is one of the gospel chapters that records Jesus’ list of signs proving His return was at the door (Luke 21:31; Matthew 24:33). In the midst of listing these signs, Jesus said in Luke 21:25-26: “There will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring; men’s hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.”
There will come a time during the Tribulation where God’s judgment will be poured out in the form of earthquakes, hurricanes, cyclones, and other violent storms (Matthew 24:7; Mark 13:8; Luke 21:11, 25; Revelation 6:6-8). This will cause great panic on the earth (Luke 21:26), yet amazingly men will still not repent and turn to God (Revelation 9:21).
In the end, Christ and His people will live on the earth forever and ever, for the world will never end (Ecclesiastes 1:4; Isaiah 60:21; Luke 1:32-33; Psalm 37:29, 104:5, 125:1; Matthew 5:5).
