The Bible says that in the End Times false Christs would arise, there would be wars and rumors of wars, the world would experience famines, as well as outbreaks of disease and earthquakes. Ancient prophets also warned of increased crime and the moral breakdown of society. Jesus Christ said that these events were the labor pains that would precede the end of the age. Despite the technological advances of mankind, our world seems on the verge of some kind of global apocalypse. Stock markets are crashing in many nations, and the signs of a worldwide economic crash are everywhere. The White House is ripped apart with scandal, and American embassies are under siege by terrorists around the world. As we enter the new millennium, life in America has radically changed forever.
