Is It Time to Prepare for Prophetic Matthew 24 Birth Pains?
All these are just the beginning: Famine, earthquakes, wars, rumors of war.
Millions die from violence by the year, and yet, this is not the prophetically foretold tribulation, says Pastor Jim Bakker. Rather, it’s the birth pains.
“Even pre-trib theorists, they all believe that we’re going to have to go through the birth pains, which are the first 8 verses of Matthew 24,” says Pastor Zachary Drew. “Well if that’s all you have to go through, isn’t nation rising against nation, wars and rumors of wars, famines, epidemics, and earthquakes in various places; isn’t that enough to want to prepare?”
Yet some churches ignore it.
“Average citizens need to be able to take care of their own families and their own neighborhoods, and their own communities,” Pastor Jim Bakker says. “And not assume that Uncle Sam is somehow going to magically bring in the cavalry and rescue them.”
