Eternity Future2 Peter 3:7,10 “But the heavens and the earth, which

are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

Two things to keep in mind

1. These Signs will be present in every generation

2. The tempo of events will increase as we approach the last days
