What Does the Bible Say About the End Times?
The Bible tells us that Jesus will return, evil will be judged, and God will make a new heaven and new earth, so we live with hope, watchfulness, and no fear.
Scripture speaks of a day when Christ will come again in glory, the dead will be raised, and every wrong will be set right. No one knows the day or hour, so we are called to be ready and to live faithfully now.
The end of the story is not destruction but renewal: God dwelling with His people, wiping away every tear, with no more death or sorrow. For those who belong to Christ, the future is not something to dread but to long for.

How this points to Jesus
Jesus is both the beginning and the end, the One who is coming again. He conquered death first at the empty tomb, and He promises to return to finish what He started. However dark the world grows, history is moving toward Him, and those who trust Him have nothing to fear on that day.
