1. SIGNS OF THE END YOUTH SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES LESSON 61 JUNE 2, 2024

2. Overview Memory Verse And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? (Matthew 24:3). Text Matthew 24:1-51; Mark 13:1-37; Luke 17:20-37; 21: 5-38

3. Introduction The end of this present and temporary world would be marked with a significant and great event called the Rapture . Those that would be alive but missed the rapture because of their unpreparedness will suffer severely from the Antichrist during the Great Tribulation. This will last for a period of seven years and, thereafter, Jesus will literally come to the earth upon mount Olive termed the Second Coming of Christ .

4. Aspects to consider 1 THE DISCIPLES' ENQUIRY ON THE SIGNS OF THE END (Mat. 24:1-3; Mark 13:1-4; Luke 17: 20,37; 21: 5-7; Hosea 4:6; 2 Tim 2:23-25; Titus 3:9) Asking questions about uncertain aspects of our life is important, just like the disciples asked about the signs of the end time. Learn to ask questions with a pure motive, not like the Pharisees did. Ask relevant questions that will help you academically, spiritually, socially and otherwise.

5. Aspects to consider 2 CHRIST'S EXPLANATION OF THE END-TIME SIGNS (Matthew 24:4-41; Mark 13:5-31; Luke 17:22-37; 21: 8-33) End-time signs include existence of fake christs or impostors; wars and rumors of wars, famines and pestilences (outbreak of diseases) and earthquakes; haters of the gospel would deliver believers up to be afflicted and killed; offences, mass betrayal and hatred of one another; many false prophets shall rise and shall deceive many; iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold and the gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness to all nations.

6. Aspects to consider 3 CHRISTIAN PREPARATION FOR CHRIST S COMING (Matthew 24:42-51; Mark 13:32-37; Luke 21:34-38; Luke 16:19-30) Watchfulness and prayerfulness is very pivotal Sinning and backslidden youths should sincerely repent & be genuinely converted. Some would miss heaven because of what men call a little sin which in the sight of God, a serious sin. Christian youths should therefore watch against sin in words, actions, thoughts, character and habits. And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch (Mark 13:37).

7. Discussion What do you understand by the term end of the world ? What are the benefits of asking relevant questions? According to our texts, mention the signs of Jesus' second coming and of the end of the world? How can youths prepare for heaven?
