"You will hear of wars and disturbances, do not be terrified for these things must take place first but the end does not follow immediately…nation will rise up against nation and kingdom against kingdom and there will be great earthquakes and in various places plagues and famine and there will be terrors and great signs from heaven…when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies…and there will be signs in the sun and moon and stars and upon the earth dismay among nations, in perplexity at the roaring of the sea and the waves, men fainting from fear…" (Luke 21:9-11, 20, 25-26).

The Bible also warned that sometime soon:

"A burning mountain will strike the earth and that the earth will be burned up and 1/3 of the trees and the green grass will be burned up and 1/3 of the people will be killed by plagues" (Revelation 8).

"The day of the Lord will come like a thief in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat and the earth and its works will be burned up" (2 Peter 3:10).

"But the present heavens and earth by His word are being reserved for fire, kept for the Day of Judgment and destruction of ungodly men" (2 Peter 3:7).

People should be fearful.

But the word of God tells us, however, not to fear!

How can that be? All that we need to do is trust and hope and believe in the Lord because the "Lord is patient toward all, not wanting any to perish, but for all to come to repentance" (2 Peter 3:9).

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding" (Proverbs 3:5).
"God is my salvation. I will trust and not be afraid for the Lord is my strength" (Isaiah 12:2).
"Hope in the living God who is the Savior of all men especially Believers" (1Timothy 4:10).
