People have been waiting for the end of the world for many centuries. The prophets are the specific dates of this event, many people are scared and worried. In fact, both the Orthodox Bible and the Muslim Quran do not name the exact date of the end of the world. The Bible says in this regard: “Nobody knows about the same day and night, nor the angels of heaven, but only my Father alone” (Matthew 24:36).
Bible: portents of the end of the world
In "Revelations of St. John the Evangelist" the future end of the world is referred to as the Apocalypse, which in Greek means "revelation", "revelation." The book describes the events that, according to John the Theologian, will precede the second coming of Jesus Christ.
Each harbinger of the future end of the world will appear in due time. All of them will be accompanied by a number of unusual phenomena for people: heavenly fire will appear, the dead will be resurrected, angels will descend to Earth. The visions given to John from God revealed the birth of the Antichrist, the subsequent second coming of Jesus Christ, the harsh Last Judgment, hunger, natural disasters, pestilence.
The Bible describes the end of the world as an approach of times in which everything dark and bad that is in a person will splash out.
War as the beginning of the end of the world
The most important omen of the impending doomsday is bloody war. In the "Gospel of Matthew" Christ says to his disciples: "And the people shall rise against the people, and the kingdom against the kingdom." (24: 6). In the event of a nuclear war, the light can fade in the literal sense - because of the clouds of ash and dust raised into the atmosphere, the sun's rays will no longer reach the earth's surface in the same amount, nuclear winter awaits people.
Apostle Peter about the Apocalypse
The Apostle Peter gave omens of the end of the world, stating that in the “last times” people would stop thinking soundly, turn their backs on righteous and true teachings. Pride will conquer humanity, they will become arrogant, proud and lustful. Children will no longer honor their parents, a great many flatterers, slanderers, etc. will appear.
The Epistle to Timothy speaks of increased worldwide hostility, intolerance of dissidents, and lost love of God. All this, according to the revelations of the apostles, will portend the second coming of Jesus Christ to Earth.
